Description:
This paper explores the influence an initiative of WWF-Australia had on the environmental reporting practices of the Australian minerals industry. In 1999, WWF-Australia produced a report that evaluated the environmental reports of companies that were signatories to the Australian Minerals Industry Code for Environmental Management. The evidence provided in this paper suggests that the WWF's initiative influenced revisions to the industry code, as well as the reporting behaviour of individual mining companies. The study contributes to the limited amount of research that has been conducted with regard to the influence that lobby groups have on corporate disclosure policies. losure policies.

Book Description

Physical Principles of Sedimentology is a textbook devoted to the physics of sedimentological processes. The applicability of fundamental principles, such as Newton's Three Laws of Motion, Law of Conservation of Energy, First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics, and of other physical relations in hydraulics and groundwater hydrology is illustrated by discussions of natural processes which form sediments or sedimentary rocks. The author's educational background as a major in physics and geology, and his 40-year experience in teaching and research help him bring together physics and geology in this enjoyable and highly readable form.

The Only Decent Text Book for Soil Dynamics.......2001-05-30

I have been using this book as a text for soil dynamics elective course. This book provides sound mathematical backing with relevant practical examples in each section. Students have found this book very useful as they can find examples followed by each derivation. Without hesitation, I would say that this is the only decent book available in the market for the first course in soil dynamics. I would, however, suggest the author to separate "geophysical soil exploration" section from the chapter that describes "Properties of dynamically loaded soil" to avoid confusion.

Book Description

Galaxies have a history. This has become clear from recent sky surveys which have shown that distant galaxies, formed early in the life of the Universe, differ from the nearby ones. New observational windows at ultraviolet, infrared and millimetric wavelengths (provided by ROSAT, IRAM, IUE, IRAS, ISO) have revealed that galaxies contain a wealth of components: very hot gas, atomic hydrogen, molecules, dust, dark matter... A significant advance is expected from the results of new instruments (VLT, FIRST, XMM) which will allow one to explore the most distant Universe. Three Euroconferences were planned to punctuate this new epoch in galactic research, bringing together specialists in various fields of Astronomy. This book contains the proceedings of the third conference and presents the actual state-of-the-art of modelling galaxy evolution.

Reliable Guide.......2005-08-10

I used this guide only for Maryland on this trip, and it was very useful. Fodor's is a reliable guidebook, and I will always purchase it first.

Such a complete guide for all purposes.......2004-05-27

I find the guide pretty informative about many kinds of making tourism along these states, It contains lots of recommendations, hints and thorough points of view from the editors. One thing I remark is that the area dwellers have enriched the content of this book, who try to encourage the traveller to keep an eye in many things a normal guide might not point. I would recommend, though, that the book contain unfoldable color maps instead of those b&w that are within the pages, since it would clearly enhance the view of this guide, however the richness of this book lies on its variety of places of interest and its wide coverage of the minimal facts on every town of these states.

A Must Have for Anybody Going to This Area.......2002-02-15

As a person who enjoys traveling, I decided to purchase this book on my first trip to Virginia Beach. This guide introduced me to many different sights to see that I never knew existed. They provide phone numbers and addresses of the locations and their descriptions of the places were very accurate. This superb book lists the best attractions, restaurants and many other things for all of the cities in Maryland and Virginia. If you're going to MD or VA for the first time or for the tenth time, this book is a great addition to add to your bag.

Book Description

Virginia and West Virginia are noted as the locations of some of America's most precious historical artifacts -- Mount Vernon, Monticello, and the entire town of colonial Williamsburg. But what natives know, and what Gail Doyle's new entry in the Travel-Smart(r) series shows in detail, is that both states are also superb destinations for nature lovers. The guide opens up a wide range of vacation options that might include getting a glimpse of America's early days in the sumptuously re-created history of Williamsburg; hiking, biking, skiing, and white-water rafting in the beautiful back country; and sampling the serenity -- and the delicious fresh fish -- of Virginia Beach and the Eastern Shore.

Gamson's Law versus non-cooperative bargaining theory [An article from: Games and Economic Behavior]

Description:
We compare Gamson's Law, a popular empirical model of legislative bargaining, with two non-cooperative bargaining models in three players divide the dollar games in which no player has enough votes to form a winning coalition on their own. Both of the game theoretic models better organize the comparative static data resulting from changes in nominal bargaining power than does Gamson's Law. We also identify deviations from the point predictions of the non-cooperative bargaining models. Namely, proposer power is not nearly as strong as predicted under the Baron-Ferejohn model, and a significant number of bargaining rounds tend to take more than two steps under demand bargaining and more than one stage under Baron-Ferejohn, counter to the models' predictions. Regressions using the experimental data provide results similar to the field data, but fail to do so once one accounts for predictions regarding coalition composition under Gamson's Law.

Description:
When agents are not price takers, they typically cannot obtain an efficient real location of resources in one round of trade. This paper presents a non-cooperative model of imperfect competition where agents can retrade allocations, consistent with Edgeworth's idea of recontracting. We show (a) there are Pareto optimal allocations, including competitive equilibrium allocations, that can be approximated arbitrarily closely when trade is myopic, i.e., when agents play a static Nash equilibrium at every round of retrading; (b) any converging sequence of allocations generated by myopic retrading can be supported along some retrade-proof subgame perfect equilibrium path when traders anticipate future rounds of trading.
