ISBN: 9781328715548 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Tough talk for tough times. Silencer is both lyrical and merciless-Wicker's mind hums in overdrive, but with the calm and clarity of a marksman. You have to read these poems."
--Tim Seibles, author of One Turn Around the Sun and finalist for the National Book Award A suburban park, church, a good job, a cocktail party for the literati: to many, these sound like safe places, but for a young black man these insular spaces don't keep out the news--and the actual threat--of gun violence and police brutality, or the biases that keeps body, property,...

Signs
ISBN: 9781845491789 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Each poem in this lively collection affirms the role of the poet as unrivalled observer of life. Signs are there in the poems of love and the natural world, such as To a Young Girl and Feline. The cyclic progression of history is highlighted in Dunwich, while the poems on dementia and death (Voices, Dead Flowers), prefigure the positive beliefs crystallized in The Path. George Wicker counts among his influences Ted Hughes and Zbigniew Herbert. His wide reading and scientific education enables a vision of the world as potentially chaotic (Certain Artists) yet ultimately, in Speckled Universe,...

"Keats, too, would have admired the holy truth of Marcus Wicker, whose lyric wizardry astounds the ear." Winner of the 2011 National Poetry Series Prize as selected by D.A.

Banking Panics of the Gilded Age
ISBN: 9780521770231 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first major study of post-Civil War banking panics in almost a century. The author has constructed for the first time estimates of bank closures and their incidence in each of the five separate banking disturbances. The author also reevaluates the role of the New York Clearing House in forestalling several panics and explains why it failed to do so in 1893 and 1907, concluding that structural defects of the National Banking Act were not the primary cause of the panics.

Great Debate on Banking Reform: Nelson Aldrich and the Origins of the Fe
ISBN: 9780814252512 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 134 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Eminent historian of economics Elmus Wicker examines the events which spurred a series of banking panics beginning in 1893-94, that led to the creation of the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank twenty years later. A serious lacuna exists in the literature on the origins of the Federal Reserve System. What is absent is a fair appraisal of the role Senator Nelson Aldrich, prominent Rhode Island senator, played. Carter Glass captured the acclaim while asserting that Aldrich be granted equal billing with Glass as "fathers" of the Federal Reserve System.That claim is based on the fact that Aldrich removed...

With the weakening of welfare states and the homogenizing influences of globalization, nations within both Eastern and Western Europe are discovering that the battlefield of political action is being redefined, and as a result emotional alliances threaten to bypass the democratic...
