Insurance Risk and Ruin (International Series on Actuarial Science)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionBased on the author`s experience of teaching final-year actuarial students in Britain and Australia, and suitable for a first course in insurance risk theory, this book focuses on the two major areas of risk theory - aggregate claims distributions and ruin theory. For aggregate claims distributions, detailed descriptions are given of recursive techniques that can be used in the individual and collective risk models. For the collective model, different classes of counting distribution are discussed, and recursion schemes for probability functions and moments presented. For the individual model, the three most commonly applied techniques are discussed and illustrated. Care has been taken to make the book accessible to readers who have a solid understanding of the basic tools of probability theory. Numerous worked examples are included in the text and each chapter concludes with exercises, which have answers in the book and full solutions available for instructors from… [detailed...]

Description: Elisabeth Wood`s account of insurgent collective action in El Salvador is based on oral histories gathered from peasants who supported the insurgency and those who did not, as well as on interviews with military commanders from both sides. She explains how widespread support among rural people for the leftist insurgency during the civil war in El Salvador challenges conventional interpretations of collective action. Those who supplied tortillas, information, and other aid to guerillas took mortal risks and yet stood to gain no more than those who did not. [detailed...]

Description: How can insurance providers boost their image and increase business? Hedy and Les Abromovitz`s Insuring Quality takes a hard look at the insurance industry and suggests innovative new ways of improving customer satisfaction, turbo-charging sales and polishing the tarnished image of the industry. The insurance industry has an image problem. From Woody Allen movies to greeting cards, insurance agents are ridiculed as boring, overbearing pests out to make a quick buck at someone`s expense.

This book was written by insurance professionals for insurance professionals - so every example in the book is based on a real-life situation.

Insuring the Essentials: Bob Ball on Social Security

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Social Security, long a `third rail` in American politics, became a battleground during the 2000 presidential campaigns. The reform proposal advocated by many Republicans, if enacted, would transform Social Security from a social insurance program to onebased on individual retirement accounts and would restructure the program`s financing, with perhaps disastrous results. Before such drastic changes are considered for the nation`s most popular and successful public program, it is important that the nation understands the purpose, nature, and history of Social Security. This collection of essays and commentaries, written over six decades of Robert M. Ball`s close professional and personal involvement with Social Security and updated by the author for 2001, is intended to deepen the understanding among policymakers and general readers alike.

Insurrection: Citizen Challenges to Corporate Power

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The world was shocked to see more than 50,000 people converge on Seattle in November 1999 to protest the policies of a then little-known institution called the World Trade Organization. Pundits and ordinary citizens wondered, `Who are these people?` What are they so angry about, and what do they want? Since then, the protests and the enthusiasm for the cause has quickly multiplied. In their fascinating narrative of a growing movement, Kevin Danaher and Jason Mark answer those questions by showing how the Seattle protests and subsequent mass demonstrations against the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank are the dramatic result of a full decade of growing agitation over corporate sponsored globalization. From uncovering major retailers` links to sweatshop abuses and revealing the deception of American tobacco companies, to questioning corporations` ties to repressive dictators, shaming food processors into selling dolphin-safe tuna, and demanding that businesses stop… [detailed...]

He brings law, economics, finance, and accounting to the same table, which results in a comprehensive framework for understanding how value is created and sustained. His construct of `proto-assets` and `portfolio of intangible economic benefits` is key.

Intangible Heritage

2009 y.
Publisher: Routledge
Description: This volume examines the implications and consequences of the idea of `intangible heritage` to current international academic and policy debates about the meaning and nature of cultural heritage and the management processes developed to protect it. It provides an accessible account of the different ways in which intangible cultural heritage has been defined and managed in both national and international contexts, and aims to facilitate international debate about the meaning, nature and value of not only intangible cultural heritage, but heritage more generally.`Intangible Heritage` fills a significant gap in the heritage literature available and represents a significant cross section of ideas and practices associated with intangible cultural heritage. The authors brought together for this volume represent some of the key academics and practitioners working in the area, and discuss research and practices from a range of countries, including: Zimbabwe, Morocco, South Africa, Japan,… [detailed...]

Intangible Management: Tools for Solving the Accounting and Management Crisis

2006 y.
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
Description: For the recorded history of management, the world has managed value creation according to what can be seen, touched and proven. In today`s knowledge-based economy, value creation is derived primarily from how well firms manage intangibles (knowledge, service, expectations, response time, innovation, change management, etc). The large capital outlays that signified the manufacturing economy are no longer required. In fact, such `tangibles` now explain less than 20% of the value of most publicly listed firms. For example, Time Warner has only 6.49% of its value attributable to tangibles. As such, for every $1 of true value, only $0.065 cents is being measured and managed by conventional management practices. For Oracle Corporation, tangibles account for only 4% of its value. For General Electric (worth over US$450 billion), tangibles account for less than 11% of its value. Intention, context, emotional intelligence, escalation, and sustainability are words that are generally absent… [detailed...]

Integrable Systems in Celestial Mechanics (Progress in Mathematical Physics)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This work presents a unified treatment of three important integrable problems relevant to both Celestial and Quantum Mechanics. Under discussion are the Kepler (two-body) problem and the Euler (two-fixed center) problem, the latter being the more complex and more instructive, as it exhibits a richer and more varied solution structure. Further, because of the interesting investigations by the 20th century mathematical physicist J.P. Vinti, the Euler problem is now recognized as being intimately linked to the Vinti (Earth-satellite) problem. Here the analysis of these problems is shown to follow a definite shared pattern yielding exact forms for the solutions. A central feature is the detailed treatment of the planar Euler problem where the solutions are expressed in terms of Jacobian elliptic functions, yielding analytic representations for the orbits over the entire parameter range. This exhibits the rich and varied solution patterns that emerge in the Euler problem, which are… [detailed...]
