Economics: Mathematical Politics or Science of Diminishing

Economics today cannot predict the likely outcome of specific events any better than it could in the time of Adam Smith. This is Alexander Rosenberg's controversial challenge to the scientific status of economics. Rosenberg explains that the defining characteristic of any science is predictive improvability--the capacity to create more precise forecasts by evaluating the success of earlier predictions--and he forcefully argues that because economics has not been able to increase its predictive p

Regions: The Economics and Politics of Territory

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Markusen, Ann / Text, Need, PUBLISHER: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Ann Markusen, one of the foremost theoreticians of regional development, has produced a book destined to become a classic in its field. Regions is a penetrating and innovative study of the political and economic aspects of American regionalism. Using historical materialism as a methodological foundation, the author analyzes the historical developments and contemporary issues of American regionalism. She contends that territorial differentiation and conflicts have emerged as major determinants in the spatial transformation of American regions. The book is rich in historical facts and case studies that are used to illuminate the theoretical dimensions of the contemporary public policy debates on regionalism.

The Politics of Greed: How Privatization Structured Politics

An in-depth political history of privatization in Central and Eastern Europe,The Politics of Greed demonstrates that the way that assets are privatized matters,both with respect to national economic performance and the successful development of the rule of law. Andrew Harrison Schwartz had unprecedented access to high-level Czech government officials during the Czech Republic's privatization process. This book is the result of the unique insights he gained and the innovative analytical framework he subseq

Machine Dreams: Economics Becomes a Cyborg Science

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mirowski, Philip, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This is the first cross-over book in the history of science written by an historian of economics, combining a number of disciplinary and stylistic orientations. In it Philip Mirowshki shows how what is conventionally thought to be "history of technology" can be integrated with the history of economic ideas. His analysis combines Cold War history with the history of the postwar economics profession in America and later elsewhere, revealing that the Pax Americana had much to do with the content of such abstruse and formal doctrines such as linear programming and game theory. He links the literature on "cyborg science" found in science studies to economics, an element missing in the literature to date. Mirowski further calls into question the idea that economics has been immune to postmodern currents found in the larger culture, arguing that neoclassical economics has surreptitiously participated in the desconstruction of the integral "Self." Finally, he argues for a different style of economics, an alliance of computational and institutional themes, and challenges the widespread impression that there is nothing else besides American neoclassical economic theory left standing after the demise of Marxism. Philip Mirowski is Carl Koch Professor of Economics and the History and Philosophy of Science, University of Notre Dame. He teaches in both the economics and science studies communities and has written frequently for academic journals. He is also the author of More Heat than Light (Cambridge, ) and editor of Natural Images in Economics (Cambridge, ) and Science Bought and Sold (University of Chicago, ).

IB DP, A-levels, GCSE science and economics tuition in

I am an IB DP graduate from Poland. I received my Diploma and got 40 points- 7's in Chemistry HL, English B HL and economics SL, 6's in Polish SL and Biology SL and 5 in Mathematics HL, B's in both ToK and EE. In 'A-levels language'- 7 is A*, 6 is A and 5 is B. Considering the fact that it was my school's second examination session and the teachers are not experienced, the results are good. I will start my higher education at UCL (I will be studying chemistry) in September. Since I was 14 y.o. I have tutored younger students (and sometimes friends my age) in English, Mathematics and various sciences. Now I would like to tutor you, you can choose the subject (of course Chemistry and Economics are my most valuable assets, but 5 in Maths HL means that I can tutor you in Maths SL or in GCSE Maths). If you like, I can help you with your university application (mine was successful, I got offers from Imperial College London, UCL, Edinburgh University and Southampton and I got rejected from Oxford University after interviews). I charge £25 per hour (or less if you want to study in a group) and you can choose the place where we meet- your home, my home, a library or a coffe shop.

The Mathematical Papers of Isaac Newton: Volume 8

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Newton, Isaac / Whiteside, D. T., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, When Newton left Cambridge in April to take up, at the age of 53, a new career at the London Mint, he did not entirely 'leave off Mathematicks' as he so often publicly declared. This last volume of his mathematical papers presents the extant record of the investigations which for one reason and another he pursued during the last quarter of his life. In January Newton was tempted to respond to two challenges issued by Johann Bernoulli to the international community of mathematicians, one the celebrated problem of identifying the brachistochrone; both he resolved within the space of an evening, producing an elegant construction of the cycloid which he identified to be the curve of fall in least time. In the autumn of , the appearance of work on 'inverse fluxions' by George Cheyne similarly provoked him to prepare his own ten-year-old treatise De Quadratura Curvarum for publication, and more importantly to write a long introduction to it where he set down what became his best-known statement of the nature and purpose of his fluxional calculus.

Cultural Development of Mathematical Ideas: Papua New Guinea

Drawing upon field studies conducted in ,and with a remote Papua New Guinea group,the Oksapmin,Geoffrey Saxe traces the emergence of new forms of numerical representations and ideas in the social history of the community. In traditional life,the Oksapmin used a 27-body-part counting system,and there is no evidence that Oksapmin used arithmetic in prehistory. With shifting practices of economic exchange and schooling,children and adults unwittingly reproduce and alter the system as they
