ISBN: 9780387947693 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As miniaturization deepens, and nanotechnology and its machines become more prevalent in the real world, the need to consider using quantum mechanical concepts to perform various tasks in computation increases. Such talks include: the teleporting of information, breaking heretofore "unbreakable" codes, communicating with messages that betray eavesdropping, and the generation of random munbers. To date, there has been no book written which applies quantum physics to the basic operations of a computer. This one does, thus presenting us with the ideal vehicle for explaining the complexities of...

ISBN: 9781788118828 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

The Role of Informal Economies in the Post-Soviet World: The End of Transition?
ISBN: 9781138903999 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Based on extensive ethnographic and quantitative research, conducted in Ukraine and Russia between 2004 and 2012, this book s central argument is that for many people the informal economy, such as cash in hand work, subsistence production and the use of social networks, is of great importance to everyday life. Formal work is both a facilitator of such processes and is often supported by them, as people can only afford to undertake low paid formal work as a result of their informal incomes. By looking at the informal nature of formal work and practices, informal practices, gift giving,...

Informal Work in Developed Nations
ISBN: 9781138804937 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Almost everyone residing in a developed nation knows someone who has engaged in paid work that is licit but not reported to the government (e.g., babysitting, gardening, construction, financial consulting). But while most acknowledge that such work is helpful to the individuals involved, and that informal work may enhance a sense of community, most scholars view it as a pre-modern form of exchange and something that disappears as capitalist markets expand globally. Both mainstream and heterodox economics typically assume that there is an inevitable shift towards the formalization of goods and...

Poverty and the Third Way
ISBN: 9780415257251 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What is poverty and how can it be tackled? Taking the Third Way out of its narrow party political context, this book argues that it is necessary to harness work beyond employment in order to pave a Third Way beyond capitalism and socialism. The outcome is a thought-provoking new approach towards combating poverty.
Poverty and the Third Way uncovers how New Labour's employment-focussed approach causes, rather than resolves, poverty. Searching for another approach, the authors find the seeds of an alternative 'Third Way' in radical European social democratic and ecological thought... What is poverty and how can it be tackled?
