Book Description

Lorie Tarshis held that much of the economic suffering in the 1970s was not necessary, that the crisis could have been easily eased had it not been for governments' faulty diagnoses and poorly-designed prescriptions.

Faced with increasingly serious energy shortages, economic slowdowns, rising unemployment and skyrocketing Third World debt, Western governments responded with inflation-fighting policies left over from the Second World War that served only to exaccerbate the situation. In this book Tarshis recommended an overall strategy to confront these problems without resorting to the stopgaps then in vogue with government decision makers.

World Economy in Crisis offers an acute diagnosis of the pervasive malaise facing the world economy in the 1970s, and a critical perspective on contemporary official responses to it.

Book Description

This is the only publication to focus on transatlantic disputes involving England and the United States. Despite their common legal heritage, there are fundamental differences between the processes of dispute resolution in each of the two countries. This work elucidates those differences so
that those engaged in transatlantic business understand in advance the risks of litigation in the other country. Each chapter is co-written by an English attorney and a United States lawyer, ensuring that legal and practical considerations are addressed from both perspectives.

This essential desktop reference answers such questions as:
In what circumstances can a party be subject to jurisdiction in England or the United States?
If a dispute is being litigated in the courts of one country, but evidence is located in another, what are the procedures for obtaining evidence for use in the foreign court?
How can one enforce a judgment obtained in England in the United States, and vice versa?
What strategies can a party use in the event of parallel proceedings in both England and the United States?

Book Description

Phase transitions in disordered systems and related dynamical phenomena are a topic of intrinsically high interest in theoretical and experimental physics. This book presents a unified view, adopting concepts from each of the disjoint fields of disordered systems and nonlinear dynamics. Special attention is paid to the glass transition, from both experimental and theoretical viewpoints, to modern concepts of pattern formation, and to the application of the concepts of dynamical systems for understanding equilibrium and nonequilibrium properties of fluids and solids. The content is accessible to graduate students, but will also be of benefit to specialists, since the presentation extends as far as the topics of ongoing research work.

Book Description

Grammy nominee! Fourteen-year-old Gary, a self-described "tree toad"—lover of a perfect lawn, the soft-porn masterpiece Carnal Cuties, his Underwood typewriter, and, above all, his rebellious cousin Kate"—lives through one amazing Lake Wobegon summer. Gary preoccupies himself by spinning fantastic yarns about boogers, talking dogs, conversations between God and Jesus, and especially melodramas featuring himself as hero and Kate as distressed damsel. When the real Kate makes a terrible mistake, Gary learns a lot about love, heartbreak, and what is really means to rebel. In 1956 Lake Wobegon Summer, Garrison Keillor describes the making of a writer who comes of age in classic Wobegon style. It's just what his fans have been waiting for: trademark wit, brilliant humor, great storytelling, and an extended stay in "the little town that time forgot and the decades cannot improve."

Customer Reviews:

Lake Booger Summer 1956.......2007-06-12

Garrision ( Gary?) Keillor like Stephen King,
hasn't forgotten what it was like to be young in a small town
and "different"... Misbegotten English teachers
and traitorous sisters who steal your girly book!
Boogers and farts and constipation... dirty words
and evil rock and roll are all of a time that endures.
Swing / big Band is to rock and roll
as rock and roll is to hip hop and rap?
Music isn't valued for how it sounds alone, but how it
makes parents act?

Charming Book; Ending Sucked........2006-03-29

Keillor's trip back fifty years to the summer of 1956 is a charming slice of Americana, Wobegon style. At times this book was very funny, and it was frequently insightful. I wonder, also, at the extent to which it was autobiographical. I did think the way it was ended was sucky. I was pulling hard for things to go a different direction and was left feeling Keillor had betrayed the free spirit of his character, Kate, and also the tone of his first 270 pages. Oh well, it's his novel, after all, and, with its imaginative teenage boy just stretching his wings as a writer, with its minor league baseball played on hot summer afternoons, with its asides into how polite society recoiled from the rising force of rock and roll, and with its dead-on recreation of a bygone era down to its Sunday dinners and the tone to a small town Fourth of July, it's basically a good one. Four stars and a chuckle.

Summer - the way it used to be.......2005-06-07

It's hard to tell which parts of this book are the most enjoyable - his exposure to the wiles of the opposite sex through the magazine "High School Orgies" and the rather basic primer provided him by his cousin Kate - his ongoing battle with his older sister over all kinds of sibling issues - his experience of becoming the newspaper reporter covering the Lake Wobegone Whippets and their talented new pitcher - his observations of the various personal foibles of all manner of friends and relatives - or just the way that Garrison Keilor tells a story. He makes it seem so easy, yet I defy you to sit down and write like he does. You can hear his voice coming off the pages and darned if it isn't more fun than shooting rats at the town dump to just sit there and let him tell you about being 14 in the Summer of 1956. Really!

Read his other books.......2004-11-17

As usual, Garrison Keillor is a good storyteller. But all his years on the radio must have caused a lot of vulgar, adolescent humor to get bottled up inside, since he can't say it on the air. And he finally found an outlet for it, he put it all in this book. So if you're a fan of "A Prairie Home Companion," and don't mind the crude humor, this book might be for you. Otherwise, his other Lake Wobegon books are much better.

Funny and Startling at the Same Time.......2004-07-18

I really enjoy Garrison Keillor's writing, and this book is no exception. What I enjoyed most were his moments of enlightenment. For example, when he realized his father didn't like to be around people crying because he was afraid he'd cry himself, I got a real sense of this boy growing up. His ability to perceive things going on around him, yet not letting these things get to him in a negative way, prove he is a true writer in the making in that Summer of 1956. In addition, Garrison's character development is superb. As a reader, you get a real sense of what these people are really like. In some ways, you wish you could know the characters...then again, maybe not...hehehe. The startling aspect of this book is the amount of sexual content, but alas, this is a teenage boy we're referring to, so I took it as a reflection of the character himself, not as an attempt to shock. All in all, it's a good read. Not excellent, but definitely entertaining.
