The University of Chicago Press The Power of Productivity
Book SynopsisThe disparity between rich and poor countries is the most serious, intractable problem facing the world. The author in this book draws on extensive microeconomic studies of thirteen nations - conducted over twelve years by the Institute itself - to counter virtually all prevailing wisdom about how best to ameliorate economic disparity.Trade Review"Lewis... offers a detailed look at the local economies in several parts of the world including the U.S., Japan, India and Brazil.... This is an insightful treatment of a complex issue that deserves a wide readership." - Publishers Weekly "Lewis's focus on competition - in retailing and much else besides - has serious implications for development economics.... Unlike so many other management consultants-turned-author, Lewis writes with clarity and serves up his data and anecdotes in easily digestible portions.... On the whole he makes his case both persuasively and engagingly." - Hugo Restall, Wall Street Journal"

Random House USA Inc The Economy of Cities BY Jacobs Jane on 1970
Book SynopsisIn this book, Jane Jacobs, building on the work of her debut, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, investigates the delicate way cities balance the interplay between the domestic production of goods and the ever-changing tide of imports. Using case studies of developing cities in the ancient, pre-agricultural world, and contemporary cities on the decline, like the financially irresponsible New York City of the mid-sixties, Jacobs identifies the main drivers of urban prosperity and growth, often via counterintuitive and revelatory lessons.

Penguin Putnam Inc The Big Fail
Book SynopsisFrom the collaborators behind the modern business classic All the Devils are Here comes a damning indictment of American capitalism?and the leaders that left us brutally unprepared for a global pandemicIn 2020, the novel coronavirus pandemic made it painfully clear that the U.S. could not adequately protect its citizens. Millions of Americans suffered?and over a million died?in less than two years, while government officials blundered; prize-winning economists overlooked devastating trade-offs; and elites escaped to isolated retreats, unaffected by and even profiting from the pandemic.Why and how did America, in a catastrophically enormous failure, become the world leader in COVID deaths? In this page-turning economic, political, and financial history, veteran journalists Bethany McLean and Joe Nocera offer fresh and provocative answers. With laser-sharp analysis and deep sourcing, they investigate both what really happened when governments ran out of PPE due to snarled supply chains and the shock to the financial system when the world''s biggest economy stumbled. They zero in on the effectiveness of wildly polarized approaches, from governor Andrew Cuomo''s lockdowns to governor Ron DeSantis''s insistence on keeping Florida open under the guidance of scientist Jay Bhattacharya. And they trace why thousands diedin hollowed-out hospital systems and nursing homes run byprivate equity firmsto ?maximize shareholder value.In the tradition of the authors? previous landmark exposés, The Big Fail is an expansive, insightful account on what the pandemic did to the economy and how American capitalism has jumped the rails?and is essential reading to understand where we?re going next.

Book SynopsisThis book presents a comprehensive overview of relative fidelity preservation processing methods and their applications within the oil and gas sector. Four key principles for wide-frequency relative fidelity preservation processing are illustrated throughout the text. Seismic broadband acquisition is the basis for relative fidelity preservation processing and the influence of seismic acquisition on data processing is also analyzed. The methods and principles of Kirchhoff integral migration, one-way wave equation migration and reverse time migration are also introduced and illustrated clearly. Current research of relative amplitude preservation migration algorithms is introduced, and the corresponding numerical results are also shown. RTM (reverse time migration) imaging methods based on GPU/CPU systems for complicated structures are represented. This includes GPU/CPU high performance calculations and its application to seismic exploration, two-way wave extrapolation operator Table of ContentsPreface vii 1 Study on Method for Relative Fidelity Preservation of Seismic Data 1 1.1 Introduction 1 1.2 Discussion on Impact on Processing of High]resolution, High SNR for Seismic Acquisition and Observation Mode 3 1.3 Discussion on the Cause of Notching 11 1.4 Discussion of Impact on Processing of Relative Fidelity Preservation Seismic Data for Seismic Acquisition and Observation Mode 17 1.5 Comparison of Results of High]resolution, High SNR Processing and Relative Fidelity Preservation Processing 28 1.6 Elastic Wave Forward Modeling 30 1.7 Conclusions 33 References 34 2 Method and Principle for Seismic Migration and Imaging 37 2.1 Kirchhoff Integral Prestack Depth Migration 37 2.2 Amplitude Preservation Fourier Finite Difference Prestack Depth Migration Method 40 2.3 Reverse Time Migration 46 References 73 3 Study of Reverse Time Migration Method for Areas With Complicated Structures Based on the GPU/CPU System 75 3.1 Introduction 75 3.2 The GPU/CPU High]performance Calculation and Its Application in Seismic Exploration 77 3.3 Study on the Two]way Wave Extrapolation Operator and Its Boundary Conditions 82 3.4 Study on the Imaging Condition and Low]frequency Noise Suppression Method 91 3.5 Study and Application of RTM Prestack Imaging Algorithm based on the GPU/CPU System 98 3.6 Conclusions 111 References 114 4 Study and Application of Velocity Model Building Method for the Areas with Complicated Structures 117 4.1 Introduction 117 4.2 Status Quo and the Development of the Velocity Model Building Method 118 4.3 Impacting Factors for the Velocity Model Building 120 4.4 Study and Application of the Seismic Velocity Model Building Method 128 4.5 Quality Monitoring and Accuracy Discussion of the Seismic Velocity Model Building 156 4.6 Velocity Analysis Method for Reverse Time Migration in Angle Domain 162 4.7 Study of the Full Waveform Inversion Method 172 References 180 5 Case Study 183 5.1 Application of 3D Prestack Reverse Time Migration in Subsalt Imaging 183 5.2 Application of High]density All]round Seismic Data Processing in the Carbonatite Region 210 5.3 Application of Seismic Imaging Method for Complicated Structures in the Tuha and Jiuquan Basins 258 5.4 Application of the Seismic Prestack Imaging Method in the Buried Hill Structural Zone in the Nanpu of Jidong Oilfield 303 References 329 Index 333

Random House USA Inc Leading Up How to Lead Your Boss So You Both Win
Book SynopsisToday’s best leaders know how to lead up, a necessary strategy when a supervisor is micromanaging rather than macrothinking, when a division president offers clear directives but can’t see the future, or when investors demand instant gain but need long-term growth. Through vivid, compelling stories, Michael Useem reveals how upward leadership can transform incipient disaster into hard-won triumph. For example, U.S. Marine Corps General Peter Pace reconciled the conflicting priorities of six bosses by keeping them well informed and challenging their instructions when necessary. Useem also explores what happens when those who should step forward fail to do so—Mount Everest mountaineers might have saved themselves from disaster during a fateful ascent if only they had questioned their guides’ flawed decisions. Leading Up is a call to action. It asks us to get results by helping our superiors lead and by building on the best in everybody’s natur
