Measurement, Quantification and Economic Analysis : Numeracy in Economics
ISBN: 9780415089159 / Angielski / Twarda / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most economists assume that the mathematical and quantative sides of their science are relatively recent developments. Measurement, Quantification and Economic Analysis: Numeracy in Economics shows that this is a misconception. Its authors argue that economists have long relied on measurement and quantification as essential tools. What is relatively new is the analysis of their emergence as perhaps the essential element of economic description and discussion.

ISBN: 9780415091350 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The impact of technological change on market structure can be much more drastic than that of traditional sources of competition, such as price. However, the analysis of such change is derived from two discrete perspectives: economics and organizational behaviour. In this study, these two traditions are brought together. The authors present an economic analysis of technological change and market structure, and an organizational strategy towards technological change and corporate structure. In a radical departure from tradition, the connections between technological change and market structure...

Economics and Language
ISBN: 9780415092098 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Twentieth-century philosophy has been dominated by issues concerned with language. These have left few areas of academic enquiry untouched; an awareness of language matters to a discipline because claims to knowledge can be made only by using language. However, economists have only come to recognize its importance relatively recently. Moreover whilst there has been much written on the subject of economics and language in the last decade, this has been dominated by the use of techniques borrowed from literary criticism. Whilst these have provided many valuable insights, they have tended to...

Social Limits to Economic Theory
ISBN: 9780415092982 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Modern economics makes much of its claim to be impartial, objective and value-free but it is unable to address our most immediate problems such as widespread environmental degradation and persistent poverty. In Social Limits to Economic Theory Jon Mulberg argues for a new progressive political economy, based on notions of community and justice and incorporating environmental and ethical considerations. In doing so he provides the best introduction to date to critical, non-orthodox economics.
