Capital in Manufacturing and Mining

In this volume in the NBER series on capital formation and financing, the authors show, with supporting figures, two major trends in mining and manufacturing. The first is that this sector had a rate of growth significantly higher than that of the economy as a whole. The total capital assets of this sector increased fifteenfold from 1880 to 1948, while the total stock of all tangible wealth in the United States increased only about sixfold. The second trend is a marked diversity among industries in the rate of growth over the period and in the time pattern of that rate. The authors advance a number of explanatory hypotheses about the significance of their findings. Originally published in 1960. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

When Trent Fa, misanthrope and self-induced loner, finds an injured man in his apartment, he's ready to call the police. When the man tries to tell him that he's not a man at all, but a fairy, Trent is ready to call a mental hospital. Ciaran isn't what Trent would have expected a fairy to be--he's handsome and sly, with a thick Irish brogue and a biting wit. He says he's on the run from a hunter of all things dangerous and supernatural, and he makes himself a hideout of Trent's posh apartment despite the other man's misgivings. The two get along like a pair of bad-tempered cats, and neither of them are interested in romance. Despite having a hunter on his trail and a bad history of being used, Ciaran can't seem to help noticing his reluctant host, and Trent is finding it more and more difficult to keep his desires closeted.The first in an ongoing series.
With Ciaran's magic stripped from him by Noah's deadly spell, there's only one option open to the wounded fairy--return to his ancestral home of T r na n g and beg for aid from the family he fled. He isn't adjusting well to being human, and his health and memory are fading fast, but the land of the fairies has its own dangers. The trip will take Trent far outside his comfort zone and stress the limits of the couple's burgeoning relationship. Ciaran has been keeping secrets, and one of them may be too much for Trent to accept.Noah isn't faring much better. Plagued by visions of memories not his own, he's forced to rely on Julien to help find a way to undo the spell, or complete it and kill Ciaran at last. Julien is tortured by guilt, working tirelessly to track Ciaran down and cure his friend, all the while pretending he still sees Noah only as a friend.The hunter has all but run out of leads when a mysterious fairy arrives with a mission to bring Noah to T r na n g for an ancient healing ritual. Their problems seem to be solved, until the fairy reveals the catch--to restore Ciaran's magic and his memories, Noah must die.
