Do They Take Credit Cards in Heaven?: Economics in the Afterlife
ISBN: 9781475155709 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Economists claim that economics is everywhere.

The Economics of Secession
ISBN: 9780312084431 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Secession has become this decade's single most important issue - a worldwide phenomenon, threatening violence, instability and a radical redrawing of international boundaries.

The Economics of Secession studies some thirty contemporary secession movements and traces the changing role played by economics before, during, and after secession: in the evaluation of the costs and benefits...
