Yasuma Takata (1883-1971), nicknamed 'the Japanese Marshall' by Martin Bronfenbrenner, dominated sociology and then economics in Japan over a long period. In sociology he was known through his articles published in German, whilst as economist he remained rather unknown in the West, despite his work along the line connecting Walras, Bohm-Bawerk, Wicksell and Keynes. His scope is so wide as to view Marx critically and accommodate Veblen, Pareto, Schumpeter. Accepting the orthodox economic theory as a first approximation, he tried to introduce institutional factors and power relationships as a second approximation. This volume is edited so as to represent a synthesis of his economics and sociology.

An account of the landmark suffragist trial before the U.S. Circuit Court for the Northern District of New York, at Canandaigua in June 1873, that brought the cause of women's voting rights to the forefront of national attention in the United States. A group of women led by preeminent abolitionist and woman's rights advocate Susan B. Anthony 1820-1906], attempted to vote during the presidential election of 1872, claiming they were entitled to do so according to the Fourteenth Amendment. The presiding officials, Jones, Hall, and Marsh, decided by a majority to accept their ballots. The women were soon arrested for this act and indicted for "knowingly voting without having a lawful right to vote." The officials were also indicted. This volume reprints the text of the indictment and a transcript of the testimony with connecting commentary. The appendix offers an address by Anthony delivered before her trial, a speech on her behalf cause by Joslyn Gage, and a critical assessment of the trial by John Hooker. vii, 212 pp.
F.W. Harvey was one of a generation whose lives were splintered by the First World War, and one of that group of war poets for whom the war changed everything. He joined the 5th Battalion of the Gloucestershire Regiment only days after war was declared, and was among the first Territorials to land in France. As a Lance-Corporal he was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal for ‘conspicuous gallantry’ and was commissioned shortly afterwards. He survived the Somme offensive but in August 1916 was captured by the Germans while reconnoitring alone behind enemy lines. He spent the rest of the war in p-o-w camps. But Harvey was more than just a tough soldier. A contemporary of Sassoon, Brooke and Thomas – and with Ivor Gurney his closest friend – he wanted nothing more when ‘at rest’ than an interval of quiet in which to set down in verse his longing for his Gloucestershire homeland, his outrage at the waste of war, his joy in comradeship, his humour and his unflinching faith. This biography contains many of the poems, including the world-famous ‘Ducks’, and is illustrated with a wealth of contemporary photographs
Anthony Burgess and America is a biographical and critical analysis of Burgess’s commentary on and relationship with the United States of America.Utilising Burgess’s entire canon and newly discovered materials to assess Burgess’s views on America, this book also evaluates the American inspirations in five Burgess novels. This essential addition to Burgess scholarship tells the story of a nearly unexplored area of Burgess’s life. For the first time ever, Burgess’s American experiences, work, and documented communication, lectures, interviews and public utterances are brought together to assess where these commentaries overlapped with his fiction. The result is a complex personal and public history about one of Britain’s greatest twentieth century authors and their immersion into and interaction with American culture in the second half of the twentieth century.
Dr. Cosenza's fifth book presents startling spiritual keys to identifying the true spiritual sources of all crises in individuals, groups, communities and countries. His timely biblical research study of the Greek word, krisis and its derivatives, carefully unfolds significant spiritual types of crises (krisis), ten subtypes, and their effective solutions. In w.w.w.krisis/intervention, Dr. Cosenza rigorously contends that the underlying answers to all crises are found mainly in the spiritual realm. Systematically, he explores three salient biblical ideas: (1) our spiritual understanding of what and who we worship, (2) our spiritual consciousness of the Word of God ("Word-ship"), and (3) our true spiritual sense of worthiness ("worth-ship"). Dr. Cosenza's provocative research on krisis intervention offers a spiritually balanced and harmonizing approach to worldly conceptions and deceptions of crises.
Praca ma na celu zbadanie ograniczeń w realizacji zr wnoważonych projekt w budowlanych w stanie Enugu w celu opracowania ram dla skutecznej i zr wnoważonej realizacji projekt w w stanie Enugu. Analizę i testowanie hipotez przeprowadzono przy użyciu analizy procentowej wielkości wsp lnej, średniego wyniku przy użyciu pięciopunktowej skali oceny Likerta, wskaźnika dotkliwości / rankingu, regresji i analizy korelacji. Wyniki pokazują, że krytyczne czynniki sukcesu mają najwyższą średnią ocenę wynoszącą 4,15 z 82,9% wskaźnikiem dotkliwości, podczas gdy wplyw na czynniki ograniczające wynosi 4,02 z 80,4% wskaźnikiem dotkliwości, a najmniej jest zidentyfikowanych czynnik w ograniczających ze średnią 3,70 i 73,9% wskaźnikiem dotkliwości. Ustalone krytyczne czynniki sukcesu zostaly wykorzystane do opracowania ram dla realizacji zr wnoważonych projekt w budowlanych w stanie. W pracy stwierdzono, że zr wnoważone budynki oferują holistyczne podejście do aspekt w ekologicznych (środowiskowych), spoleczno-kulturowych, ekonomicznych, technicznych, procesowych i lokalizacyjnych. Integracja z projektowaniem, planowaniem, wykonaniem i konserwacją oceny calego cyklu życia zapewnilaby mniejszy wplyw na środowisko i najbardziej oplacalne w calym cyklu życia budynk w.
