A Suburban Mom: Notes from the Asylum

2007 y.
Publisher: Wyatt-MacKenzie Publishing
Description: A glimpse into the mind of a laid-back yet stressed-out, insecure, sleep-starved, TV-obsessed, news-junkie, Generation X parent navigating the labyrinth of modern parenthood with three young children, including a set of twins. From critiquing fashionistas who try to convince the pregnant public to buy maternity thongs and discussing whether at-home moms have sold out their feminist sisters, to tackling topics such as how to have a sex life while three kids are pounding on their parents` locked bedroom door, how to look cool while driving a mini-van (a clue: you can`t) and what happens when a toddler eats trash, O`Brien`s collection of 76 columns illustrates how parents are living their lives in the real American suburbs, not in the white picket fenced world portrayed in fuzzy, honey-hued greeting card ads.

A Sucker`s Diary

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: A SUCKER`S DIARY chronicles the author`s disastrous personal experience with stock market gambling addiction. It contains very accurate and thorough recollections of his involvement in the stock and option markets on money borrowed from credit cards at teaser rates, his insidiously slow transformation from a cautious investor to a reckless compulsive gambler, the eventual wipeout, and the hangover, during which he has had to repay an amount greater than his gross annual salary at regular credit card interest rates. Readers of this shockingly revealing account have the chance to learn from the mistakes of their next-door neighbor, since the author preceded the majority of today`s day traders in sentiment and experience by at least three years. Embarrassed to reveal anything about the biggest financial blunder of his life, he had to overcome a lot before writing about it. Day trading catapults to emotional extremes. A SUCKER`S DIARY exposes the emotional roller coaster of a… [detailed...]

A Survey of Ecological Economics (Frontier Issues in Economic Thought)

Publisher: —
Description: The emergent discipline of ecological economics is based on the idea that the world`s economies are a function of the earth`s ecosystems - an idea that radically reverses the world view of neoclassical economics. A Survey of Ecological Economics provides the first overview of this new field, and a comprehensive and systematic survey of its critical literature. The editors of the volume summarize ninety-five seminal articles, selected through an exhaustive survey, that advance the field of ecological economics and represent the best thinking to date in the area. Each two-to three-page summary is far more comprehensive than a typical abstract, and presents both the topics covered in each paper and the most important arguments made about each topic. Sections cover: historical perspective definition, scope, and interdisciplinary issues theoretical frameworks and techniques energy and resource flow analysis accounting and evaluation … [detailed...]

Brian May
A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Zodiacal Light, that misty diffuse cone of light seen in the West after Sunset and the East before Sunrise, is a beautiful and intriguing phenomenon. Even though everyone can enjoy the sight from a suitably dark location, it is poorly understood, and has been the subject of relatively little research. Brian May began his research into the subject in 1970, and was finally awarded his PhD in 2007, after a hiatus of more than 30 years pursuing his other career as guitarist with his rock band Queen. This book is Brian’s thesis, and as such presents the results of his research for astronomers. This thesis documents the building of a pressure-scanned Fabry-Perot Spectrometer, equipped with a photomultiplier and pulse-counting electronics, and its deployment at the Observatorio del Teide at Izana in Tenerife, at an altitude of 7,700 feet (2,567 m), to record high-resolution spectra of the Zodiacal Light. The aim was to achieve the first systematic mapping of the Magnesium I (MgI)… [detailed...]

A Survey of Sustainable Development: Social and Economic Dimensions (Frontier Issues in Economic Thought (Paperback))

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Perpetual economic growth is physically impossible on a planet with finite resources. Many concerned with humanity`s future have focused on the concept of `sustainable development` as an alternative, as they seek means of achieving current economic and social goals without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own goals. Sustainable development brings together elements of economics, public policy, sociology, ecology, resource management, and other related areas, and while the term has become quite popular, it is rarely defined, and even less often is it understood. A Survey of Sustainable Development addresses that problem by bringing together in a single volume the most important works on sustainable human and economic development. It offers a broad overview of the subject, and gives the reader a quick and thorough guide to this highly diffuse topic. The volume offers ten sections on topics including: economic and social dimensions of sustainable… [detailed...]
