Popularizing Classical Economics

Popularizing Classical Economics

W.D. Sockwell

Palgrave Macmillan
1994
sidottu
Popularizing Classical Economics analyzes the theoretical contributions of two British Economists, Henry Brougham and William Ellis, and describes how they popularized economic ideas from the early 1800s through the 1860s. Efforts to spread economic ideas to the lay public have been little studied and few individuals have been recognized for their efforts. This book traces the efforts of Brougham and Ellis to spread classical economic ideas through education of both adults and children.

The Wanderings of an Elephant Hunter
The Wanderings of an Elephant Hunter is the story of Walter Dalrymple Maitland Bell, a famous big game hunter in East Africa. 'Karamojo Bell, ' as he was known, devised many original techniques to seek out and capture his quarry, including a difficult rifle shot from a diagonal angle, later dubbed 'The Bell Shot.' Wanderings details Bell's ingenious ivory-hunting methodology, as well as his many interesting encounters on safari

Stress and Strain

Stress and Strain

This is an elementary book on stress and strain theory for geologists. It is written in the belief that a sound introduction to the mechanics of continu­ ous bodies is essential for students of structural geology and tectonics, just as a sound introduction to physical chemistry is necessary for students of petrology. This view is shared by most specialists in structural geology, but it is not yet reflected in typical geology curricula. Undergraduates are still traditionally given just a few lectures on mechanical fundamentals, and there is rarely any systematic lecturing on this subject at the graduate level. The result is that many students interested in structure and tectonics finish their formal train­ ing without being able to understand or contribute to modem literature on rocks as mechanical systems. The long-term remedy for this is to introduce courses in continuum mechanics and material behavior as routine parts of the undergraduate curriculum. These subjects are difficult, but no more so than optical mineralogy or thermo­ dynamics or other rigorous subjects customarily studied by undergraduates. The short-term remedy is to provide books suitable for independ­ ent study by those students and working geologists alike who wish to improve their understanding of mechanical topics relevant to geology. This book is intended to meet the short-term need with respect to stress and strain, two elementary yet challenging concepts of continuum mechanics.
Capitalism, Culture and Decline in Britain
First published in 2002.The aim of this book is to analyse and dispute a widely-held theory of Britain’s ‘economic decline’ since the mid-nineteenth century, and to offer an alternative view which has important implications for our understanding of British society and culture in the modern period.
The Myth of Rescue

It has long been argued that the Allies did little or nothing to rescue Europe's Jews. Arguing that this has been consistently misinterpreted, The Myth of Rescue states that few Jews who perished could have been saved by any action of the Allies. In his new introduction to the paperback edition, Willliam Rubinstein responds to the controversy caused by his challenging views, and considers further the question of bombing Auschwitz, which remains perhaps the most widely discussed alleged lost opportunity for saving Jews available to the Allies.

King Ryence of Ordal has fought diligently against the Faeries, yet his people are ashamed of his efforts, especially when he surrenders to the Faerie Realm. But at the treaty signing, the King of the Faeries discovers disturbing information and flees. Emory longs to be a knight, but the other boys tease him and call him weak. That changes when Emory receives a wonderful opportunity. A knight offers him an apprenticeship, and Emory is soon swept into an adventure that leads him to the castle, to the king, and out of the city on a path that forks and leads into enemy territory. But the King and Emory face several disturbing questions: What is the mysterious prophesy that caused the Faerie King to not sign the surrender treaty? Why has the heir to the throne been taken? On what mission has Emory been sent? And who is the mysterious sorceress who pledges her life to defend the realm of Men?
