ISBN: 9789401053112 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Our authors and our intended audience are eclectic indeed. Environ mental risk assessment receives increasing attention in the media today. The populace is practically assaulted with stories, with anecdotes, and with conflicting evidence. It is our hope that these chapters will provide the reader with a comprehensive glimpse of a fast-growing field in public policy. No complete survey of the literature would be possible or...

The Economic Metabolism
ISBN: 9789401061155 / Angielski / Miękka / 197 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

While the approach adopted is mathematical, the mathematics used is certainly not too...

ISBN: 9781461373759 / Angielski / Miękka / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "EURO." The name of the single currency for the European Union has not been chosen casually by the Heads of State and Government during the Madrid Council of December 1995. After tough discus- sions, it has been unanimously accepted. The intention was to recall to every single citizen that this new money would be his money, that it would be the expression of the new European environment carefully built since the "fifties" to avoid any return to war and barbarism in Europe. Confidence and positive expectations for a better future put in the European construction have thus been clearly linked...

The History of Financial Crises
ISBN: 9780415635066 / Angielski / Twarda / 1802 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since 2007, the global financial system has endured extreme turbulence with banks suffering stomach-churning losses, necessitating unbelievable bailouts by national governments.

But, of course, these events are far from novel. The current crises prompt comparisons with the Great Depression of the 1930s, the global crisis of 1907, the international crises of the 1870s, the meltdown of 1825, the Mississippi and South Sea bubbles...

Aside from objectives the book is a reflection of many years of research preceding Habilitation proper in the field of efficiency measurement. Regarding the subject matter the main intention was to fill an...
