The Economics and Econometrics of Innovation
During the past few decades, the interest of economists in the sources of long-term economic growth has led an increasing number of them to focus on the role of innovation in creating that growth. Although some researchers have always been interested in this topic, the groundbreaking work of Solow (1957), Nelson (1959) and Arrow (1962) made many other economists recognize the central role played by innovation in almost all spheres of economic activity. The Economics and Econometrics of Innovation presents a valuable overview of the work of the world's most renowned experts in the field of innovation and technical change. It collects 22 outstanding contributions that reflect the results of th...
The British Anti-Psychiatrists
The British anti-psychiatric group, which formed around R.D. Laing, David Cooper, and Aaron Esterson in the 1960s, burned bright, but briefly, and has left a long legacy. This book follows their practical, social, and theoretical trajectory away from the structured world of institutional psychiatry and into the social chaos of the counter-culture. It explores the rapidly changing landscape of British psychiatry in the mid-Twentieth Century and the apparently structureless organisation of the part of the counter-culture that clustered around the anti-psychiatrists, including the informal power structures that it produced. The book also problematizes this trajectory, examining how the anti-psy...
Decision Making Under Risk and Uncertainty
As desired, the infonnation demand correspondence is single valued at equilibrium prices. Hence no planner is needed to assign infonnation allocations to individuals. Proposition 4. For any given infonnation price system p E . P (F *), almost every a E A demands a unique combined infonnation structure (although traders may be indifferent among partial infonnation sales from different information allocations, etc. ). In particular, the aggregate excess demand correspondence for net combined infonnation trades is a continuous function. Proof Uniqueness fails only if an agent can obtain the same expected utility from two or more net combined infonnation allocations. If this happens, appropriate...
Mobile Big Data
This book reports on the latest advances in mobile technologies for collecting, storing and processing mobile big data in connection with wireless communications. It presents novel approaches and applications in which mobile big data is being applied from an engineering standpoint and addresses future theoretical and practical challenges related to the big data field from a mobility perspective. Further, it provides an overview of new methodologies designed to take mobile big data to the Cloud, enable the processing of real-time streaming events on-the-move and enhance the integration of resource availability through the ‘Anywhere, Anything, Anytime’ paradigm. By providing both academia and industry researchers and professionals with a timely snapshot of emerging mobile big data-centric systems and highlighting related pitfalls, as well as potential solutions, the book fills an important gap in the literature and fosters the further development in the area of mobile technologies for exploiting mobile big data.
The Economics of International Environmental Agreements
This title was first published in 2000: Conflicts between developed and developing countries over global environmental problems, and the fact that the co-operation required to solve environmental collective action problems is typically elusive in the world of international relations, suggests a research agenda regarding how one might hop to bring about co-operation in an inherently non-co-operative international setting. In particular, what can economic theory tell us about the design of international environmental agreements (IEAs) that will protect the world's fragile environmental resources? This book collects work on IEAs which demonstrates the value of rigorous microeconomic and econometric modelling in comprehending the many and varied facets of the design and implementation in IEAs.
