This is the first account in book form of the theory of harmonic morphisms between Riemannian manifolds. Harmonic morphisms are maps which preserve Laplace's equation. They can be characterized as harmonic maps which satisfy an additional first order condition. Examples include harmonic functions, conformal mappings in the plane, and holomorphic functions with values in a Riemann surface. There are connections with many concepts in differential geometry, for example, Killing fields, geodesics, foliations, Clifford systems, twistor spaces, Hermitian structures, iso-parametric mappings, and...

A review of the critical literature associated with the life and works of John Maynard Keynes.

Joseph A. Schumpeter (1883-1950) worked successively in Austria, Bonn and Harvard. He possessed a broad overall picture of the socio-economic process and made major contributions to economics, political philosophy and the theory of economic development. Schumpeter's main concern was to explain economic development, including future economic development. He considered that the tendency was towards static, circular-flow economies; and that the role of the entrepreneur was vital in bringing about the technological and organisational innovations necessary to preserve dynamism and wealth-creation....

The first 4 volumes of an 8 volume re-issue of Karl Marx's key essays in the economics arena, these titles also cover newer controversies in Marxian economics, such as reinterpretations by Sraffa and Roemer.

The articles in these volumes aim to provide a comprehensive account of Mill's life, thought and economics.

Karl Marx has a unique position in the development of economic and social thought; no-one else has been subject to so much, and to such contradictory, interpretive behaviour. The publication of Karl Marx's Economics: Critical Assessments in 1987 brought together the range of critical material on Marx. It established a benchmark for Marx studies, and aims to serve as a resource for scholars. Karl Marx's Economics: New Critical Assessments completes the project of the earlier assessments by making available more than 100 additional titles. Primarily these are articles which have appeared since...

Complete in 8 volumes this set incorporates the publication of Karl Marx Critical Assessments and a collection of over 100 additional articles which have come to light since this publication.

The 20th century, in particular the last four decades, has witnessed the explosion of management as a discrete university discipline which is taught in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. This has coincided with a growth in general interest in management strategies. However, despite this burgeoning of writings, courses and general interest, there is no comprehensive collection of the critical assessments of writings about either contemporary management thinkers or the great figures of the field. Pioneers of Business and Management Studies, aims to be a major reference work for the...
