The Sports Gene: Talent, Practice and the Truth About Success
ISBN: 9780224091626 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. In this ground-breaking and entertaining exploration of athletic success, award-winning writer David Epstein gets to the heart of the great nature vs. nurture debate, and explodes myths about how and why humans excel. Along the way, Epstein exposes the flaws in the so-called 10,000-hour rule that states that rigorous practice from a young age is the only route to success. He shows why some skills that we imagine are innate are not - like the bullet-fast reactions of a baseball player - and why other characteristics that we assume are entirely voluntary, like the motivation to practice, might...

Personal Enmity in Roman Politics (Routledge Revivals): 218-43 BC
ISBN: 9781138780170 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Roman Republic was governed by a small group of men who agreed far more than they disagreed on the fundamental questions facing the state. The details of their public behaviour can thus only be understood in relation to the idiosyncrasies deeply embedded in Roman political culture, one of the most important of which was that of personal hatred inimicitia . Personal Enmity in Roman Politics, first published in 1987, explores how inimicitia could arise and how it was often central in the formation of political factions. In particular, groups opposing such powerful figures... The Roman Republic was governed by a small group of men who agreed far more than they disagreed on the fundamental questions facing the state.

Delegating Powers: A Transaction Cost Politics Approach to Policy Making Under Separate Powers
ISBN: 9780521669603 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this path-breaking book, David Epstein and Sharyn O'Halloran produce the first unified theory of policy making between the legislative and executive branches. Examining major US policy initiatives from 1947 to 1992, the authors describe the conditions under which the legislature narrowly constrains executive discretion, and when it delegates authority to the bureaucracy. In doing so, the authors synthesize diverse and competitive literatures, from transaction cost and principal-agent theory in economics, to information models developed in both economics and political science, to...

Personal Enmity in Roman Politics : 218-43 BC
ISBN: 9781138780095 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 'Personal Enmity in Roman Politics' explores how 'inimicitia' could arise and how it was often central in the formation of political factions. In particular, groups opposing such powerful figures as Pompey and Caesar might be united by nothing more than common hatred of the individual. An important feature too was the criminal trial, because of the highly personal nature of the Roman adversary system at the time: Epstein argues that personal factors were more important than political ones in the famous trials of the late Republic.
