Household Portfolios

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Until recently, researchers in economics and finance paid relatively little attention to household portfolios. Reasons included the tendency of most households to hold simple portfolios, the inability of the dominant asset pricing models to account for household portfolio incompleteness, and the lack of detailed databases on household portfolios in many countries until the late 1980s or 1990s. Now, however, the analysis of household portfolios is emerging as a field of vigorous study. The eleven chapters in this collection provide an overview of current theoretical knowledge about the structure of household portfolios and compare predictions with empirical findings. The book describes the state-of-the-art tools of analytical, computational,and econometric investigation, as well as some of the key policy questions. It provides an original comparative analysis of household portfolios in countries for which detailed household-level data are available (the United States, the… [detailed...]

Households, Work and Economic Change: A Comparative Institutional Perspective (Recent Economic Thought Series, 57)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book argues that contemporary economic and political change make household level behaviour increasingly significant in the economy. The book investigates interrelations between household and economic change. The conclusions which emerge from these investigations are relevant to policy makers in both social democratic and neo-liberal countries. The comparative approach taken in the book is amenable to the application of institutional theory, which is used to analyse work. The results are interesting to students of economics, political science, sociology and geography, as well as to research and policy specialists from these disciplines. [detailed...]

Marilynne Robinson
Housekeeping: A Novel

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A modern classic, Housekeeping is the story of Ruth and her younger sister, Lucille, who grow up haphazardly, first under the care of their competent grandmother, then of two comically bumbling great-aunts, and finally of Sylvie, their eccentric and remote aunt. The family house is in the small Far West town of Fingerbone set on a glacial lake, the same lake where their grandfather died in a spectacular train wreck, and their mother drove off a cliff to her death. It is a town `chastened by an outsized landscape and extravagant weather, and chastened again by an awareness that the whole of human history had occurred elsewhere.` Ruth and Lucille`s struggle toward adulthood beautifully illuminates the price of loss and survival, and the dangerous and deep undertow of transience.

Houses &, Materials: Elements on Architecture

2008 y.
Publisher: Loft Publications
Description: Construction materials have formed a part of mankind`s development throughout history, providing shelter, both temporary and permanent. This book is divided into five chapters on the five principal materials used in construction - stone, wood, glass, metal and concrete - and it shows some residential projects in which the building materials are particularly important. The architecture works with a predominant material to create a home which is made to measure for the owners. Hopefully, in the future, new materials will become available which will reduce the costs of construction and its impact on the environment, as well as increasing the quality of the buildings and, of course, our quality of life.

Houses and Monuments of Pompeii: The Work of Fausto and Felice Niccolini

2002 y.
Publisher: Getty Trust Publications: J. Paul Getty Museum
Description: The discovery of and excavations at Pompeii in the second half of the eighteenth century not only provided historians with a trove of information about ancient Roman civilization but also fired artists` imaginations and inaugurated the vogue for the `Pompian style` that so influenced the West in the nineteenth century. This book reproduces, along with commentary, Le case i monumenti di Pompeii (1854) of Fausto and Felice Niccolini, the first work to present completely and systematically all the pulic and private buildings so far excavated in Pompeii. It features the wondrous watercolors the Niccolinis created to document Pompeii and is thus a beautiful and essential tool in understanding the excavated remains themselves and how the modern archaeoogists perceived and recorded the ancient world. These magnificently reproduced drawings of the excavations are accompanied by texts that explain the documents by the Niccolinis, as well as the evolution of the Pompeian style… [detailed...]

Houses by the Sea

2006 y.
Publisher: Loft Publications
Description: The enchantment of the horizon across the sea and the ocean is irresistible for so many people, who dearly wish to have its infinite view through the window of their home. A seaside environment, however, does not always provide optimum conditions, and houses built on certain coastal sites often present architects with a challenge, which requires a complex solution. The border between land and sea generates extreme and highly variable climatic conditions, which must be taken into consideration when defining a project. It must be taken into account that the effects of the wind and the sun can change drastically within moments, or that this great mass of water acts as a thermostat, absorbing the heat during the day and emitting it at night, producing minimal fluctuations in temperatures.

Houses of Study: A Jewish Woman among Books

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Houses of Study is an eloquent memoir of a Jewish woman’s life and her efforts to reconcile the traditions of her faith with her belief in women’s equality and the pull of modern American living. Ilana M. Blumberg traces her path from a childhood immersed in Hebrew and classical Judaic texts alongside Anglo-American novels and biographies to a womanhood where the two literatures suddenly represent mutually exclusive possibilities for life. Set in “houses of study,” from a Jewish grammar school and high school to a Jerusalem yeshiva for women to a secular American university, her intimate and poignant memoir asks what happens when the traditional Jewish ideal of learning asserts itself in a woman directed by that same tradition toward a life of modesty, early marriage, and motherhood. This Bison Books edition is updated with discussion questions. (20070212) [detailed...]

Houses to Go: How to Buy a Good Home Cheap

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: It will probably be news to many readers, particularly those trying to buy or build a first home, but there are incredible bargains to be found in homes that are slated for demolition, homes that are perfectly solid, sometimes spectacular that can be purchased for extremely low prices and moved to a new site. In Houses to Go , Robert L. Williams covers all the details--how to find these houses, how much you should pay, how to prepare the new site, how to arrange the move, how to build a proper foundation for particular structures, even how to do basic plumbing hook-ups and kitchen-cabinet hanging once the home has been moved. You`ll even find instructions on how to salvage and clean bricks and concrete blocks for reuse. The story of the author`sown home--appraised at well over $100,000, purchased initially for 73 cents (!) and moved and finished for less than $15,000--is illustrative of the kinds of bargains available to a savvy home buyer armed with the information in this… [detailed...]

Houses

Publisher: Rizzoli
Description: Creating your dream house - a prospect as exciting as it is daunting. Michael Smith, a favorite among celebrity clientele, reveals the method of his design magic. Offering thoughtful ideas and practical advice, the designer walks the reader through his process, from the gathering of resource material (from magazines and iconic films to something as simple as a shell or a swatch of vintage fabric), expertly pairing simpler and grander elements (or inexpensive with more extravagant objects), perfecting the editing process, to knowing when a room is finished. Detailing the nearly encyclopedic range of styles he culls from to create his signature style, the designer describes recent examples of his work, beginning with a modest and quirkily designed house in Bel Air, Smith redid for himself. Razed, rebuilt, and decorated over the course of five years, the house allowed Smith to experiment and explore ideas freely and the result is a gracious home, as welcoming as it is stylish.
