WW Norton & Co Knowledge and the Wealth of Nations A Story of Economic Discovery
Book SynopsisWhat The Double Helix did for biology, David Warsh's Knowledge and the Wealth of Nations does for economics. Boston GlobeTrade Review"A fascinating journey through the world of economic thought—and the lives of economists—from Adam Smith to the present day... If you like reading stories of high intellectual drama, if you want to know the origin of ideas that, as Keynes said, "are dangerous for good or evil," this book is for you." -- Paul Krugman - New York Times Book Review"A fascinating story of discovery, meticulously reported and essential reading for anyone curious as to what makes economics tick." -- Tim Harford - Financial Times"The glory of this elegantly written book is that all you need to bring is your curiosity." -- Steven Pearlstein - Washington Post"Knowledge and the Wealth of Nations tells the story of the rebel economics of increasing returns. A veteran observer of dismal scientists at work…Mr. Warsh has written the best book of its kind since Peter Bernstein’s Capital Ideas." -- The Economist"An in-depth look at the ‘new growth theory,’ conceived by Adam Smith and unproven until recently, with profound implications for us all." -- The Atlantic"Warsh pulls off a tour de force. He takes us all the way back to Adam Smith, and then forward in time in an illuminating tour of economic history. In his hands, economics is far from the ‘dismal science’—it is a discipline that, with many a zigzag and no shortage of ideological disagreements, has steadily progressed in its understanding of how economies work." -- Andrew Leonard - Salon"The book on [Paul] Romer for the ages, a truly splendid creation on both the science and the person." -- Tyler Cowen - Marginal Revolution"A great book. The first place to look to learn some of the backstory for work on growth." -- Paul Romer, Winner of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences

Book SynopsisA Businessweek Bestseller "You fail to read F.I.A.S.C.O. at your peril." —Los Angeles TimesTrade Review"F.I.A.S.C.O. is a ringside seat on the nastiest, most important game being played on Wall Street. Think of derivatives trading as a blood sport, with the unsuspecting consumer as the prey. Read this book or else…" -- Michael Lewis"This insider's account smacks as much as The Catcher in the Rye as of Liar's Poker. Applies an intelligent, clinical eye to this excruciatingly complex corner of the financial world." -- New York Times"Like Liar's Poker, Partnoy's tale is populated with hilarious caricatures…His book goes a long way toward helping us understand what happened and preventing us from becoming 'widows and orphans' who buy these products without understanding them." -- Chicago Tribune"Read the book F.I.A.S.C.O., by law professor and former derivatives trader Frank Partnoy, an insider account of depravity in derivative trading at one of the biggest and best-regarded Wall Street firms. The book will turn your stomach." -- Charlie Munger

Penguin Putnam Inc Americana A 400Year History of American
Book SynopsisAn absorbing and original narrative history of American capitalismNAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2017 BY THE ECONOMISTFrom the days of the Mayflower and the Virginia Company, America has been a place for people to dream, invent, build, tinker, and bet the farm in pursuit of a better life. Americana takes us on a four-hundred-year journey of this spirit of innovation and ambition through a series of Next Big Things -- the inventions, techniques, and industries that drove American history forward: from the telegraph, the railroad, guns, radio, and banking to flight, suburbia, and sneakers, culminating with the Internet and mobile technology at the turn of the twenty-first century. The result is a thrilling alternative history of modern America that reframes events, trends, and people we thought we knew through the prism of the value that, for better or for worse, this nation holds dearest: capitalism. In a winning, accessible style, Bhu Srinivasan

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Critical Villager Beyond Community
Book SynopsisWhen aid to the Third World actually works it is usually on such a small scale that it makes little impact on the world''s problems. Can demands for generalizable actions be reconciled with location-specific solutions? The Critical Villager considers how community-based technical aid can be made more effective and sustainable. Calling for development workers, policy makers and researchers to put themselves in the place of the intended beneficiaries of aid, it suggests concrete principles for action and research. It argues that participatory research and ''transfer of technology'' should not be regarded as rival models for development but rather as complementary components in a single process of effective aid.Table of ContentsIntroduction Part A.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Political Economy of Peacebuilding in
Book SynopsisA fresh examination of the political economy of the peacebuilding process in Bosnia-Herzegovina in the aftermath of the country''s 1992-95 war. Little progress has been made in transforming the country''s war-shattered economy into a functioning market economy, this new study explains the principal dynamics that have led to this, and places Bosnia''s economic transition process within the context of the country''s broader post-conflict peacebuilding process. The central argument this book persuasively advances is that much of Bosnia''s ongoing economic crisis, and its current reform stalemate, can be explained by exploring the interactions of an inappropriate international model of economic reform with the country''s particular post-conflict and post-socialist political economy. This book is essential for readers who wish to build an understanding of the region and assess its future prospects and hopes.Table of Contents1. Introduction and Overview 2. The Washington Consensus Meets the Political Economy of Conflict Chapter 3. State-Making the Dayton Way 4. Resistance and Entrenchment - Ethnic Division, Domestic Power Structures, and Economic Reform 5. Business as Usual - International Prescriptions for Bosnia's Economic Transition 6. The Politics of Privatization 7. The Political Economy of Return 8. The Social Dimensions of Peacebuilding and Transition 9. Conclusion

Penguin Publishing Group The Baseball Economist The Real Game Exposed
Book SynopsisFreakonomics meets Moneyball in this provocative exposé of baseball’s most fiercely debated controversies and some of its oldest, most dearly held myths. Providing far more than a mere collection of numbers, economics professor and popular blogger J.C. Bradbury shines the light of his economic thinking on baseball, exposing the power of tradeoffs, competition, and incentives. Utilizing his own “sabernomic” approach, Bradbury dissects baseball topics such as: • Did steroids have nothing to do with the recent homerun records? Incredibly, Bradbury’s research reveals steroids probably had little impact.• Which players are ridiculously overvalued? Bradbury lists all players by team with their revenue value to the team listed in dollars—including a dishonor role of those players with negative values—updated in paperback to include the 2007 season.• Does it help to lobby for

Basic Books Power And Prosperity Outgrowing Communist and Capitalist Dictatorships
Book SynopsisWhy do some economies do better than others? How does society encourage the kind of market economy that generates continually increasing incomes? How do particular styles of government affect economic performance? World-renowned economist Mancur Olson tackles these questions and others in what will surely be regarded as his magnum opus. Olson contends that governments can play an essential role in the development of markets. Reliable enforcement of private contracts and protection of individual rights to property depend on governments strong enough not to undermine them. His exploration of market-augmenting governments will stand as a cutting-edge work on economic growth and provide a useful framework in which to consider the Asian financial crisis and its aftermath. As Susan Lee noted in Forbes, his pioneering insights might have won a Nobel Prize for Olson had he lived a bit longer.Trade Review"Power and Prosperity is an important book, written with clarity and verve. It is a great misfortune that Mancur Olson is not here to respond to the debates that it will surely provoke." The Wall Street JournalTable of Contents* 1. The Logic of Power * 2. Time, Takings, and Individual Rights * 3. Coaseian Bargains, Transactions Costs, and Anarchy * 4. Rational Individuals and Irrational Societies * 5. Governance and Economic Growth * 6.
