In Gold, acclaimed author Matthew Hart takes you on an unforgettable journey...

Community Futures, Legal Architecture
ISBN: 9780415732741 / Angielski / Miękka / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How are indigenous and local people faring in their dealings with mining and related industries in the first part of the 21st century? The unifying experience in all the resource-rich states covered in the book is the social and economic disadvantage experienced by indigenous peoples and local communities, paradoxically surrounded by wealth-producing projects. Another critical commonality is the role of law. Where the imposition of statutory regulation is likely to result in conflict with local people, some large modern corporations have shown a preference for alternatives to repressive...

Speculation, Trading, and Bubbles
ISBN: 9780231159029 / Angielski / Twarda / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As long as there have been financial markets, there have been bubbles--those moments in which asset prices inflate far beyond their intrinsic value, often with ruinous results. Yet economists are slow to agree on the underlying forces behind these events. In this book Jose A. Scheinkman offers new insight into the mystery of bubbles. Noting some general characteristics of bubbles--such as the rise in trading volume and the coincidence between increases in supply and bubble implosions--Scheinkman offers a model, based on differences in beliefs among investors, that explains these observations....

Using evolution as the template to understand growth, The Nature of Value takes a first-principles approach to explore the parallels between economic and ecological systems.

He borrows from an array of disciplines--including anthropology, psychology, ecology, physics, sociology, and ethics--and, most revealing of all, examines how evolution's processes can help investors avoid risk and improve their allocation decisions....

Pandora's Risk: Uncertainty at the Core of Finance
ISBN: 9780231151733 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Author of the acclaimed work Iceberg Risk: An Adventure in Portfolio Theory, Kent Osband argues that uncertainty is central rather than marginal to finance. Markets don't trade mainly on changes in risk. They trade on changes in beliefs about risk, and in the process, markets unite, stretch, and occasionally defy beliefs. Recognizing this truth would make a world of difference in investing. Belittling uncertainty has created a rift between financial theory and practice and within finance theory itself, misguiding regulation and stoking huge financial imbalances. Sparking a...
