Meals and Recipes from Ancient Greece

2007 y.
Publisher: Getty Publications
Description: Ancient Greek literature contains a wealth of culinary information on everything from etiquette to menu planning. Fifty-six delicious-and preparable!-recipes, gleaned from ancient sources and updated with ingredients available to the contemporary American cook, are compiled in this book. Readers will also learn about the role of food in ancient Greek culture-from simple family menus to lavish wedding feasts-beginning with the age of Homer and culminating with the ostentatious banquets of the Hellenistic era. Drawing from Athenaeus`s The Deipnosophists, the most important source on ancient Greek food and cooking, as well as from comic writers, the author brings to life the delights of the food and wine and conviviality that were an important aspect of meals in ancient Greece.

Meals to Come: A History of the Future of Food (California Studies in Food and Culture)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this provocative and lively addition to his acclaimed writings on food, Warren Belasco takes a sweeping look at a little-explored yet timely topic: humanity`s deep-rooted anxiety about the future of food. People have expressed their worries about the future of the food supply in myriad ways, and here Belasco explores a fascinating array of material ranging over two hundred years--from futuristic novels and films to world`s fairs, Disney amusement parks, supermarket and restaurant architecture, organic farmers` markets, debates over genetic engineering, and more. Placing food issues in this deep historical context, he pro vides an innovative framework for understanding the future of food today--when new prophets warn us against complacency at the same time that new technologies offer promising solutions. But will our grandchildren`s grandchildren enjoy the cornucopian bounty most of us take for granted? This first history of the future to put food at the center of the story… [detailed...]

Mean Markets and Lizard Brains: How to Profit from the New Science of Irrationality

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Everyone from journalists to market pros are turning to behavioral finance to explain, analyze, and predict market direction. In contrast to old-school assumptions of cool-headed rationality, the new behavioral school embraces hot-blooded human irrationality as a core feature of both individuals and financial markets. The 2002 Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded to scholars of this new scientific approach to irrationality. In Mean Markets and Lizard Brains, Terry Burnham, an economist who has a proven ability to translate complex topics into everyday language, reveals the biological causes of irrationality. The human brain contains ancient structures that exert powerful and often unconscious influences on behavior. This `lizard brain` may have helped our ancestors eat and reproduce, but it wreaks havoc with our finances. Going far beyond cataloguing our financial foibles, Dr. Burnham applies this novel approach to all of today`s most important financial topics: the stock market, the… [detailed...]

Meaning, Inc.: The Blueprint for Business Success in the 21st Century

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Written by leading corporate psychologists YSC, Meaning Inc. outlines why some organizations are flourishing in the 21st century while others are failing. The book suggests that what employees, society, and customers want from organizations is changing rapidly, and that successful organizations recognize and respond to these shifts. Based on interviews with over 10,000 managers globally as well as inspiring case studies from the Tata Group in India, Starbucks, Diageo, Sainsbury`s, Goldman Sachs, and many more, the book identifies the creation of meaning as the key task for companies to address in the new world. It describes what this actually means, provides tangible solutions to how this can be achieved, and explains the benefits they might expect to gain from this strategy. The book also reaches beyond business to explore how meaning can drive success for nations and individuals. [detailed...]

Meaningful Texts: The Extraction Of Semantic Information From Monolingual And Multilingual Corpora

Publisher: —
Description: This book, largely derived from work being carried out by the partners of the TELRI (Trans-European Language Resources Infrastructure) projects, reflects the growing influence of corpus linguistics in a variety of areas such as lexicography, translation studies, genre analysis and language teaching. The book is divided into two sections, the first on monolingual corpora and the second addressing multilingual corpora. Although the methods used to examine these two types of corpora may differ, the contributors reveal that there are many similarities between the two. The chapters discuss: - the relationship between methodology and theory - the importance of computers for linking textual segments, providing teaching tools or translating texts - the significance of `training corpora` and human annotation - how corpus linguistic investigations can shed light on social and cultural aspects of language - the importance of corpus linguistics in modern linguistic… [detailed...]

Meaningful Work… the Entrepreneurial Way: Your Integrated Guide to Career and Personal Life Management

Description: Meaningful Work the Entrepreneurial Way your integrated guide to career and personal life management a guide to encourage and empower people to become leaders on their own behalf. Taking responsibility for joy, meaning and balance in one?s work-life is a very personal choice. This book helps people make that choice. Living is a life-long process and working is a daily activity that will engage us for at least one half of our lifetime. As an agricultural society, life was far less complicated and frenetic than it is today - living and working were more balanced. Today, how work gets done does not naturally lend itself to a balanced, integrated Work-Life and this chaotic influence seems to be in place for the foreseeable future. We come ill prepared for what we experience in the workplace today. The ever-increasing incidence of stress, anxiety and depression present glaring proof. Regan believes that ?today we are living through circumstances that must,… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: This is a graduate level textbook on measure theory and probability theory. The book can be used as a text for a two semester sequence of courses in measure theory and probability theory, with an option to include supplemental material on stochastic processes and special topics. It is intended primarily for first year Ph.D. students in mathematics and statistics although mathematically advanced students from engineering and economics would also find the book useful. Prerequisites are kept to the minimal level of an understanding of basic real analysis concepts such as limits, continuity, differentiability, Riemann integration, and convergence of sequences and series. A review of this material is included in the appendix. The book starts with an informal introduction that provides some heuristics into the abstract concepts of measure and integration theory, which are then rigorously developed. The first part of the book can be used for a standard real analysis course for both… [detailed...]

Measure for Mearsure

1999 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: One of Shakespeare`s `dark comedies,` Measure for Measure is as noteworthy for its fascinating political and social implications as for its compelling characters: a duke masquerading as a monk, a would-be nun ordered to sacrifice her chastity to save her brother`s life, and a self-righteous courtier, professing his incorruptibility while concealing a depraved private life. In this engrossing drama set in 16th-century Vienna, Duke Vincentio attempts to enforce the city`s long-ignored morality laws, which results in a death sentence for Claudio, a young man accused of seducing and impregnating his fiancee. Isabella, his sister, attempts to gain a pardon for him, but refuses when she is asked to exchange her virtue for her brother`s life. Claudio eventually is freed and utter tragedy is averted, as Shakespeare explores with force and sensitivity the basis of good government, public and private morality, and the balancing of justice and mercy, among other themes. … [detailed...]

Measurement Error and Latent Variables in Econometrics

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hardbound. The book first discusses in depth various aspects of the well-known inconsistency that arises when explanatory variables in a linear regression model are measured with error. Despite this inconsistency, the region where the true regression coeffecients lies can sometimes be characterized in a useful way, especially when bounds are known on the measurement error variance but also when such information is absent. Wage discrimination with imperfect productivity measurement is discussed as an important special case. Next, it is shown that the inconsistency is not accidental but fundamental. Due to an identification problem, no consistent estimators may exist at all. Additional information is desirable. This information can be of various types. One type is exact prior knowledge about functions of the parameters. This leads to the CALS estimator. Another major type is in the form of instrumental variables. Many aspects of this are discussed, inc [detailed...]
