An Introduction to Gender and Wellbeing in Microeconomics

An Introduction to Gender and Wellbeing in Microeconomics

Nicky Pouw

Routledge
2017
sidottu
An Introduction to Gender and Wellbeing in Microeconomics explains how to set up the basics of designing a gender-aware approach to microeconomics by constructing creative gender-aware indicators. Using a wellbeing economics framework, the book argues that economic models should take power differences such as those inherent with gender into account, and be complemented by more qualitative analysis geared to discovering the ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind the ‘what’ questions. This book will be essential reading for academic and professional researchers, as well as policy researchers in gender and economics, international development, and social and economic policy. It will be invaluable for courses relating gender to the economy, and will enable readers to get a clear and concise understanding of the gendered character of the economy and of economic policy.

Unbecoming Things

Unbecoming Things

Nicky Gregson; Mike Crang

Routledge
2026
sidottu
This book responds to moves to rematerialize the social sciences, to attend to the stuff of daily life but challenges the social sciences to think beyond objects as stable things. It forwards the argument that objects need to be seen not as stabilising things, or immutable mobiles – as time stilled and materials fixed and conserved in the object form – or even always in the making, as becoming but as unbecoming things. It argues that objects are better seen as things coming apart, as en route to becoming something else, some stuff else, somewhere else. It locates these arguments in economies of demolition, disposal and reincarnation, focusing on object death, materials recovery and re-fabrication, and the sequestration and unleashing of materials classified as wastes. It uses as its exemplar case the classic immutable mobile, the ship – one of the most durable and complex of fabricated objects. It illustrates these arguments through global ethnography conducted in various settings around the world, including South Asia and the EU.

Evidence Synthesis for Decision Making in Healthcare

Evidence Synthesis for Decision Making in Healthcare

Nicky J. Welton; Alexander J. Sutton; Nicola Cooper; Keith R. Abrams; A. E. Ades

John Wiley Sons Inc
2012
sidottu
In the evaluation of healthcare, rigorous methods of quantitative assessment are necessary to establish interventions that are both effective and cost-effective. Usually a single study will not fully address these issues and it is desirable to synthesize evidence from multiple sources. This book aims to provide a practical guide to evidence synthesis for the purpose of decision making, starting with a simple single parameter model, where all studies estimate the same quantity (pairwise meta-analysis) and progressing to more complex multi-parameter structures (including meta-regression, mixed treatment comparisons, Markov models of disease progression, and epidemiology models). A comprehensive, coherent framework is adopted and estimated using Bayesian methods. Key features: A coherent approach to evidence synthesis from multiple sources.Focus is given to Bayesian methods for evidence synthesis that can be integrated within cost-effectiveness analyses in a probabilistic framework using Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation.Provides methods to statistically combine evidence from a range of evidence structures.Emphasizes the importance of model critique and checking for evidence consistency.Presents numerous worked examples, exercises and solutions drawn from a variety of medical disciplines throughout the book.WinBUGS code is provided for all examples. Evidence Synthesis for Decision Making in Healthcare is intended for health economists, decision modelers, statisticians and others involved in evidence synthesis, health technology assessment, and economic evaluation of health technologies.

What If It Was That Easy? How to Heal You & Your Home: How Earth's Energies May Be Affecting Your Life

What If It Was That Easy? How to Heal You & Your Home: How Earth's Energies May Be Affecting Your Life

'What if it was that easy?"... is exactly that A question to yourself, to ask your body, what if my health or the health of my children and family is directly related to where we spend time 'stationary'? What if it was that easy? What if the place you choose to put your bed in your home, or are forced to put it because of the way the house was built, or the place your parents put your bed, was relevant to the state of your health when you were growing up? What if it was that easy? What if the desk you chose at work or was told to sit at, or indeed stand at all day in the same location, is in the wrong place according to these Earth Energies, called Geopathic Stress, could be affecting your health? Just because something is simple or easy, doesn't mean it can't be true. Think about it, the significant time we spend stationary is while we are in bed, on the couch, or at our desk, and these are the times when our body is in direct alignment with the earth. Therefore if there was a 'frequency' or energy coming up from the Earth, and there is, it would be these times that you could be affected by it. The electromagnetic fields around earth (Schumann resonance 7.83htz, that vibrates at a slightly higher frequency than is healthy for us as humans, has a chance to irritate us. Don't let it irritate you I'm sure you have all sat in a chair or been still long enough in your bed, or at work, and felt tingles or a hot or cold sensation that may have given you a headache or even worse. You have walked into a room and felt like someone was behind you. This can also be explained as this energy. Occasionally it may not be, but when you consider how many magnetic fields there are around the earth, no one has ever missed them at some time or another. You walk through them every day, somewhere in your daily routine. If you spend a lot of time stationary, sitting at work, sleeping in a bed, lying on the couch, and Geopathic Stress (noxious earth energies) is present, then it is likely to attack your immune system and affect your health. You just DO NOT want to be stationary on them. This book is to help you recognise and understand them. I want to make you AWARE not SCARE (REVISED EDITION)

An eerie, hypnotic debut about friendship, desire, and memory set against the sultry backdrop of Florida's swamplands. "A mesmerizing, hallucinatory adrenaline rush of a novel."--Claire Luchette, author of Agatha of Little Neon It's been years since Ingrid has heard from her childhood best friend, Mayra, a fearless rebel who fled their hometown of Hialeah, a Cuban neighborhood just west of Miami, for college in the Northeast. But when Mayra calls out of the blue to invite Ingrid to a weekend getaway at a house in the Everglades, she impulsively accepts. From the moment Ingrid sets out, danger looms: The directions are difficult, she's out of reach of cell service, and as she drives deeper into the Everglades, the wet maw of the swamp threatens to swallow her whole. But once Ingrid arrives, Mayra is, in many ways, just as she remembers--with her sharp tongue and effortless, seductive beauty, still thumbing her nose at the world. Before they can fully settle into the familiar intimacy of each other's company, their reunion is spoiled by the reemergence of past disagreements and the unexpected presence of Mayra's new boyfriend, Benji. The trio spend their hours eating lavish meals and exploring the labyrinthine house, which holds as much mystery as the swamp itself. Indoors and on the grounds, time itself seems to expand, and Ingrid begins to lose a sense of the outside world, and herself. Against this disquieting setting, where lizards dart in and out of porches and alligators peek from dark waters, Gonzalez weaves a surreal, unforgettable story about the dizzying power of early friendship and the lengths we'll go to earn love and acceptance--even at the risk of losing ourselves entirely.
