A TEXTBOOK OF CULTURAL ECONOMICS

This book is written as an introduction to cultural economics; it assumes no knowledge of economics, even of supply and demand, and each economic concept is explained as it is introduced in the text. The book represents my kind of cultural economics, and my motive for writing this book is to expand cultural economics beyond its earlier scope to include the creative industries and the issues of copyright law that relate to them.

THE ORIGINS OF INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC DISORDER

The book begins with an overview of the British gold standard and its gradual breakdown during the interwar period. This sets the stage for the main subject: the history of the monetary order underlying the multilateral free-trade system promoted and managed by the United States. The analysis rests on a distinction between a closed economy, where trade imbalances can be corrected by the imposition of quotas and tariffs, and an open one, where the only way to overcome an imbalance is either to encourage exports by lowering the value of the national currency (devaluation) or to discourage imports by allowing domestic economic activity to stagnate (deflation). Block suggests that while the closed economy is more favorable to the working classes, the open one is sought by those with money to invest, i.e. the capitalists. What the book actually studies is the historical effort by a surplus exporter, the postwar United States, to provide the credit required by its trading partners, essentially the Western European nations and Japan, to continue purchasing its goods and thus sustain its industrial expansion.

THE SCIENCE OF TRAINING – SOCCER

The importance of training as necessary preparation for playing soccer is now underlined at all levels of the game. The top players gain an edge to their performances as a result of the structured training procedures they undergo. Recreational players too benefit from training, being able to play the game more safely due to their improvements in fitness and game skills. Whilst playing and practising games skills play a large part in preparing for match-play, these are not enough on their own without a formal programme of fitness work. It was the need to provide a theoretical framework for soccer training that motivated the writing of this book.

SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION FOR FLASH

Introduction to Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Search Engine Optimization, or SEO, is extremely popular in the web design and web marketing world. The following sections discuss what SEO is, and how it relates to Flash content.

Understanding SEO and Reasons to Use SEO
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) refers to making web content visible to search engines like Google, Yahoo!, and MSN. You may be thinking, “Can’t the search engines just find everything anyway,” but there’s actually a complex science of making content visible or easily found by search engines. In fact, there are many businesses solely devoted to optimizing websites. The process of optimizing a site for search engines involves a lot of thought and specific coding and coding practices. There are actually many deciding factors, which we’ll talk about in great detail throughout the rest of this book.

UN ANÁLISIS DEL PROCESO DE INTERNACIONALIZACIÓN DE LAS PEQUEÑAS Y MEDIANAS EMPRESAS EN LA COMUNIDAD VALENCIANA: MODELO GRADUAL VERSUS ACELERADO

En el presente estudio se realiza un estudio sobre los cambios producidos en los modelos de internacionalización de las pymes valencianas en la década de los noventa. Esencialmente, se compara el perfil de aquellas empresas que optaron por un modelo de internacionalización gradual, siguiendo la línea de la Escuela Escandinava, con las empresas que desarrollaron un modelo acelerado (nuevas empresas internacionales). Los resultados muestran algunas diferencias significativas entre ambos grupos, y permiten establecer conclusiones para la gestión empresarial, el diseño de actuaciones públicas y futuras investigaciones.

EMPIRICAL METHODS IN NATURAL LANGUAGE GENERATION

Natural language generation (NLG) is a subfield of natural language processing (NLP) that is often characterized as the study of automatically converting non-linguistic representations (e.g., from databases or other knowledge sources) into coherent natural language text. NLG is useful for many practical applications, ranging from automatically generated weather forecasts to summarizing medical information in a patient-friendly way, but is also interesting from a theoretical perspective, as it offers new, computational insights into the process of human language production in general. Sometimes, NLG is framed as the mirror image of natural language understanding (NLU), but in fact the respective problems and solutions are rather dissimilar: while NLU is basically a disambiguation problem, where ambiguous natural language inputs are mapped onto unambiguous representations, NLG is more like a choice problem, where it has to be decided which words and sentences best express certain specific concepts.

MEDICO-LEGAL ISSUES IN INFECTIOUS DISEASES

The current state of medical malpractice is of serious concern to physicians, medical organizations, and to many governments of developed nations. Many developed countries (including Canada and the United States) have seen a great increase in medical malpractice claims and a dramatic rise in premium rates over the past decade. Physicians face many challenges besides obtaining appropriate liability protection and practicing good cost-effective medicine, without the spectre of malpractice lawsuit. Unfortunately, although all practicing physicians and healthcare providers are vulnerable to medico-legal liabilities, this is a neglected and overlooked area in the education of medical student, residents and fellows, who will face the harsh realities of medical practice largely unprepared

STATISTICAL METHODS FOR TREND DETECTION AND ANALYSIS IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES

The life story of this book has been long and rather involved. It started with general conversations about the ubiquitous nature of the questions ‘What is changing and by how much?’ within environmental sciences, moved on to discussions about how some of the newer, potentially more powerful and almost certainly more realistic statistical approaches to answering such questions had not yet been translated over to the applied sciences communities and then ultimately reached the ‘Wouldn’t a book be a good idea?’ stage. Many of those initial conversations were held around meetings organised by the Environmental Statistics section of the Royal Statistical Society. Momentum was maintained subsequently through a series of training courses for environmental science PhD students, loosely titled ‘Quantifying the environment’ and sponsored by the Natural Environment Research Council. As always, having formulated our grand and ambitious plans, the task of actually putting them into practice took much longer than we either hoped or expected. So, now that we have finally reached our objective, we owe a huge debt of thanks to all the staff at Wiley for their patience over more years than we care to admit.

STATISTICS FOR SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES

The publication of Spearman’s paper “The proof and measurement of association between two things” in the American Journal of Psychology in 1904 was the very tentative start of a new field now known as test theory. This book appears almost exactly a century later. During this period, test theory has developed from a timid fledgling to a mature discipline, with numerous results that nowadays support item and test analysis and test scoring at nearly every testing organization around the world.

STATISTICS FOR THE QUALITY CONTROL CHEMISTRY LABORATORY

This book is intended to be a simple, though not simplistic, introduction to the statistical methods that are routinely applied in analytical chemistry Quality Control laboratories. While it is strongly influenced by my experiences of teaching short courses to laboratory scientists in pharmaceutical companies, the ideas are quite general and would find application in virtually every type of analytical chemistry laboratory. I have included data from different application areas, based on a wide range of analytical techniques. I hope, therefore, that the book will have a broad appeal and serve the needs of a large laboratory audience.
