Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Comedies were among the first films ever made, and comedy played a critical and often overlooked role in the early development of cinema.

Basic Business Statistics: A Casebook
ISBN: 9780387983547 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Preface Statistics is seldom the most eagerly anticipated course of a business student. It typically has the reputation of being a boring, complicated, and confusing mix of mathematical formulas and computers. Our goal in writing this casebook and the companion volume (Business Analysis Using Regression) was to change that impression by showing how statistics yields insights and answers interesting business questions. Rather than dwell on underlying formulas, we show how to use statistics to answer questions. Each case study begins with a business question and concludes with an answer to that...

While the rise of autocratic presidential powers has been widely noted by scholars in recent years, with calls by some for a stronger or more accountable presidency, Constitutional Ambiguity and the Interpretation of Presidential Power is among the first entirely dedicated to a study of the impact of this ambiguity on how scholars, judges, and presidents have understood executive power.

Checking the Courts: Law, Ideology, and Contingent Discretion
ISBN: 9781438452883 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) How does the language of legislative statutes affect judicial behavior? Scholars of the judiciary have rarely studied this question despite statutes being, theoretically, the primary opportunity for legislatures to ensure that those individuals who interpret the law will follow their preferences. In Checking the Courts, Kirk A. Randazzo and Richard W. Waterman offer a model that integrates ideological and legal factors through an empirical measure of statutory discretion. The model is tested across multiple judicial institutions, at both the federal and state levels, and reveals that...

Bureaucrats, Politics And the Environment
ISBN: 9780822958291 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The bureaucracy in the United States has a hand in almost all aspects of our lives, from the water we drink to the parts in our cars. For a force so influential and pervasive, however, this body of all nonelective government officials remains an enigmatic, impersonal entity.
The literature of bureaucratic theory is rife with contradictions and mysteries. "Bureaucrats, Politics, and the Environment" attempts to clarify some of these problems. The authors surveyed the workers at two agencies: enforcement personnel from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and employees of the New...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) For decades, public expectations of US presidents have become increasingly excessive and unreasonable.

The Image Is Everything Presidency : Dilemmas In American Leadership
ISBN: 9780813368924 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 203 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Image is everything. Today, our television and movie stars, our athletes, and our politicians carefully craft images for public consumption. Even our country's Executive Chief is not immune to a bit of image manipulation. If presidents can not always actually satisfy the public's excessive, contradictory, and unrealistic expectations, they can at least present a compelling image of presidential leadership and success. When it comes to the modern presidency, tennis star Andre Agassi was correct, Image is everything. Image creation is a serious business with critically important implications...
