                        Book Description

                        In the early eighteenth century, Peter the Great established the Kunstkamera as the encyclopedic museum of the Academy of Sciences in Russia. This volume offers for the first time a complete detailed catalog of the approximately 2,200 surviving drawings of the objects in the museum's collections. The result of a five-year research effort by distinguished Russian and Dutch scholars, this comprehensive work provides a wealth of insights into the original collection of the legendary Kunstkamera.

                        The drawings cover a wide range of disciplines, from botany and anatomy to archaeology and Chinese objects and were used to document the objects in the museum's collections and to illustrate Academy members' publications. The volume opens with four thematic essays that consider the historical and aesthetic significance of the drawings. Nine subsequent sections discuss specific types of objects and feature numerous illustrations. A bilingual Russian-English DVD augments this volume with a detailed searchable catalogue and full-color images of the complete collection of drawings.

                        The Paper Museum of the Academy of Sciences in St Petersburg is a groundbreaking work of historical research that will be an invaluable resource to historians, art specialists, and museum curators.

                        5 out of 5 stars an excellent book of photography.......2000-04-11

                        Many of these photos were taken on a huge polariod camera and taken as multiple shots, put together in creative ways, where an arm of each model, or an earring, may be shared in the portrait of the other. People holding each other are literally torn apart at the arm. The earlier black and white photos in new york are also expressive and good. Certain ones that stand out are the man in front of the store on Fulton Street, as well as nikki and manting, and one of a girl with folded arms and tatooed wrists.

                        5 out of 5 stars Economics isn't just about money!.......2000-09-21

                        "Economics is the study of how scarce resources are allocated among competing uses." - Steven Hackett starts with the basics, perhaps recognizing that many readers (like this reviewer)have a limited, if not non-existent level of knowledge of a subject that controls our lives. Contrary to widespread opinion, economics is not the dismal science, and neither is it an esoteric exercise that is limited to the likes of Alan Greenspan. Hackett's definition of scarcity is similarly enlightening as his definition of economics - "something is said to be scarce when, at a zero price, more is wanted than is available." So most things are scarce, and everyone makes economic decisions about allocating scarce resources, whether or not those allocation decisions involve money and market transactions. From those basic definitions and more, Hackett proceeds to explain and expand upon the value systems and the allocation decisions that we make as individuals and as a society. As the title implies, "Environmental and Natural Resource Economics" concentrates on the decisions that are made about the use of natural resources, including wilderness, forests, minerals, and fisheries. He also discusses pollution and the options for controlling pollution, including market mechanisms for pollution reduction. Sustainable development is a major theme of the book and Hackett explains a variety of approaches to sustainability. For anyone who wants more than an emotional opinion on the environment and the choices that society must make in its use of the environment, Steven Hackett provides a readable and valuable introduction to a subject of critical importance.

                        Book Description

                        The euro is the national currency of eleven European countries from 1 January 1999. The change is truly a revolution. But it will not be until 2002 that euro cash - notes and coin - comes into circulation. This three-year 'transition' period raises many fascinating issues regarding the operation of financial markets, economies, companies, governments and the consumer. The second edition of The euro takes an expert look at the issues involved.

                        Written by an internationally renowned team of expert contributors from the worlds of banking, finance, economics, regulation, accountancy and business consultancy, the second edition of The Euro addresses all the key issues involved in the final implementation of Europe's new currency.

                        Amongst the issues of crucial importance addressed in the book are:

                        * Will the euro be a strong or a weak currency - will it rival the US dollar?

                        * Can Europe's economies really work properly with the 'one size fits all' approach to interest rates?

                        * Will the long-term benefits of the euro outweigh the short-term pain which has been endured as a result of higher taxes and government spending cuts?

                        * Are companies ready to cope with the euro?

                        * Will the consumer benefit?

                        * To what extent will a 'United States of Europe' be created?

                        * How can Europe's citizens cope with the dramatic changes brought about by the combination of the euro plus the IT revolution and Europe's ageing population?

                        The Investor described the first edition as "a work of reference - although an unusually readable one" and this approach ahs been continued in this fully revised and updated new edition. The skill of the team of expert contributors ("Europe's most highly-regarded analysts" according to City Life) is in their ability to present the complicated issues that arise out of the single European currency in a style that is both highly informative and accessible, making this new edition once again required reading for all readers who need or want to know what will happen to Europe's economies in the future.

                        The euro, second edition, is published under the auspices of the European Bond Commission of EFFAS (the European federation of Financial Analysts' Societies). EFFAS was established in 1962 and is a pan-European representative group of investment analysts from some seventeen different countries. The European Bond Commission is a standing committee of EFFAS responsible for matters relating to fixed income securities.

                        Reviews of the first edition:

                        ".. what has been sadly lacking in the thousand of column inches that have been written about monetary union over recent weeks and months is a detailed analysis of what it will actually mean in practice. This is what The euro provides... for the reader who is keen to find out more about the issues that lie behind the development of the single currency. The euro will make matters considerably easier to understand."

                        "Written to appeal to finance and business readers, it is a comprehensive, readable guide to the likely consequences of this momentous and radical change."

                        Lavoisier Management

                        "The EFFAS-European Bond Commission has obtained the views of Europe's most highly-regarded analysts. The results are startling."

                        City Life

                        "...the roll call of experience is longer and more illustrious than a Cruft's winner's pedigree... Anyone searching for the meat-and-potatoes lowdown on the single currency should look no further than The euro."

                        Chartered Banker

                        "Tim Congdon argues coolly that the euro plan simply will not work. He likens the euro programme to building a house with different sized bricks (dual pricing, parallel currencies), without a roof (no clear redenomination of currencies) and on a bog (planning documents are incoherent about money as a means of exchange). More rethinking for Chancellor Brown?"

                        4 out of 5 stars Good book for understanding the economic impact of Euro.......1998-02-20

                        It's a book about EURO which you'll find interesting. It is actually a collection of articles written by various industry specialists. It examines the impact of EURO on many areas like Bond Market, Equity Market & foreign exchange rate etc, it also illustrates the role of ECB.

                        It's recommended to students who want to have a quick grasp of knowledge in the EMU. It contains many graphs and diagrams which can raise your speed of reading. However, the impact of Euro on Equity market is a little bit too short.

                        Highly recommended to overseas students in Europe.

                            Book Description

                            The economic dimension is at the very heart of the Russian story in the twentieth century. Economic issues were the cornerstone of soviet ideology and the soviet system, and economic issues brought the whole system crashing down in 1989-91. This book is a record of what happened, and it is also an analysis of the failure of Soviet economics as a concept. B> Examines why the Soviet economic system fell apart and explores if the economy simply overreach itself through military spending. Seeks to discover if the centrally-planned character of Soviet socialism was at fault or if a potentially viable mechanism came apart in Gorbachev's clumsy hands. Examines the failure and if it means that true socialism is never economically viable. For those interested in Soviet or Economic history.

                              This study, by a host of leading experts, provides the most up-to-date analysis of the often problematic relationship between various elements of British political culture and the developing European Union. The book opens with a general review of the history of this relationship since 1950, by Andrew Gamble. This is followed by ten chapters by other leading researchers, each examining a particular aspect of the relationship, including the view of Britain from Europe, the attitudes of Labour, Conservative, and Liberal Democratic parties, the Scottish and Welsh Nationalist parties, the Trade Unions, Business, the Civil Service, and the media. The study concludes with a review of the findings of these chapters, and a discussion of their implications for future relations between Britain and her European partners.

                                The free movement of capital and payments within the EU and between the EU and third countries is an essential component in establishing the internal market in financial services.
                                L This work provides an expert and practical analysis of the Treaty framework governing free movement of capital and payments, covering the definition of capital payments, the prohibition of restrictions on free movement, together with the permitted exceptions, derogations and safeguard measures.
                                The provisions are considered in the context of other EU Treaty provisions and the international environment. The author also addresses the increasingly complex EU framework for combating money laundering.

                                  Book Description

                                  "The euro has quickly become a world currency, and this excellent work explains how this came about. It does the job, not only by looking at the economic factors involved, but also at political, legal, social, and cultural factors—all in a very creative and readable manner." —Richard Swedberg, Cornell University

                                  "If the nineteenth and twentieth centuries brought a dramatic nationalization of government-backed currencies across the world, does the euro's introduction in 2002 write finis to the era of nationalism? Here, superbly informed observers of European politics, economy, and social life debate that question from multiple perspectives, not only documenting the depth of the euro's challenge, but also mapping alternative futures for Europe. An illuminating intervention in a vital conversation." —Viviana A. Zelizer, Lloyd Cotsen '50 Professor of Sociology, Princeton University

                                  "This is one of the most interesting and original books in the burgeoning field of EU studies to have emerged in recent years. Its emphasis on the likely social and cultural—not just political and economic—impact of the euro at the national, subnational, and supranational levels is timely and refreshing. Tighly edited, this book should be essential reading for professional and amateur EU-watchers alike." —Desmond Dinan, Jean Monnet Professor of Public Policy, George Mason University

                                  "I know of no other books on the academic market that deal with the impact of the Euro on the political, economic, and social fabric of Europe. This volume is currently one-of-a-kind." —Jeffrey Anderson, Georgetown University

                                  The Year of the Euro examines the wide-ranging importance of Europe's new single currency beyond its impact on financial markets and the economy itself. On January 1, 2002, when the new currency began to circulate in the twelve participating member states of the European Union, the long move toward a supranational European framework for trade and institutions finally entered the fabric of daily life for hundreds of millions of citizens. The contributing authors to this highly readable and interdisciplinary volume offer a variety of perspectives on this extraordinary episode in currency change and European convergence. The book's essays offer the assessments of leading scholars of European affairs—from the fields of history, political science, sociology, and law—as to whether the new common currency will reshape the continent's cultures, societies and political systems and, if so, in what ways. The discussions and debates found in these pages will inform those, within and outside academia, who are interested in the future of Europe and in the meaning of national currencies. The volume is also suitable for classroom use in courses on the European Union, cultural and economic sociology, comparative politics, and contemporary Europe.

                                    Book Description

                                    Measures of Active Labor Market Policy - such as training, wage subsidies, public employment measures, and job search assistance - are widely used in European countries to combat unemployment. Little, however, is known about what each country can learn from experiences in other countries. This study provides novel insight on this important policy issue by discussing the role of the European Commission's Employment Strategy, reviewing the experiences made in European states, and giving the first ever quantitative assessment of the existing cross-country evidence, answering the question "what labor market program works for what target group under what (economic and institutional) circumstances?". Using an innovative meta-analytical approach, the authors find that rather than contextual factors such as labor market institutions or the business cycle, it is almost exclusively the program type that matters for program effectiveness: While direct employment programs in the public sector appear detrimental, wage subsidies and "Services and Sanctions" can be effective in increasing participants' employment probability.

                                        Book Description

                                        This book explores the making of international social science, and the parts which academics, policymakers and research managers play in creating European social environmental research. The authors present and analyze a complex picture of overlapping institutional interests within six countries of the EU - The Netherlands, UK, Spain, Greece, Finland and Austria - and develop new models with which to capture the transnational interaction of researchers and funding agencies.

                                        The contributors consider the practical and intellectual challenges facing European research managers charged with the task of building a community of social researchers willing to engage with a policy-relevant environmental agenda. The book analyzes the shape and character of European social science and the values and commitments of research activity on the environment.

                                        This book will be of special interest to those involved in social environmental research, environmental policy, European studies and research management whether at the practical and policy level or in academia.
