Zero-Sum Economics

Zero-Sum Economics

pokkari
Zero-sum economics is a new theory of economics that can be used to explain the general operation of economies including such phenomena as business cycles, cash distribution, global labor, and ultimately poverty. These explanations use system analysis and control theory to describe how economic phenomena occur and use numerical simulations and current economic statistics to validate the claims. The most interesting part of this theory is that it shows how to stabilize an economy to avoid business cycles that cause recurrent recessions and potentially solve poverty.This edition has more details about Universal Basic Income (UBI) and Other supporting details about how and why this strategy would work.

Space and time on earth are regulated by the prime meridian, 0°, which is, by convention, based at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich. But the meridian’s location in southeast London is not a simple legacy of Britain’s imperial past. Before the nineteenth century, more than twenty-five different prime meridians were in use around the world, including Paris, Beijing, Greenwich, Washington, and the location traditional in Europe since Ptolemy, the Canary Islands. Charles Withers explains how the choice of Greenwich to mark 0° longitude solved complex problems of global measurement that had engaged geographers, astronomers, and mariners since ancient times.Withers guides readers through the navigation and astronomy associated with diverse meridians and explains the problems that these cartographic lines both solved and created. He shows that as science and commerce became more global and as railway and telegraph networks tied the world closer together, the multiplicity of prime meridians led to ever greater confusion in the coordination of time and the geographical division of space. After a series of international scientific meetings, notably the 1884 International Meridian Conference in Washington, DC, Greenwich emerged as the most pragmatic choice for a global prime meridian, though not unanimously or without acrimony. Even after 1884, other prime meridians remained in use for decades.As Zero Degrees shows, geographies of the prime meridian are a testament to the power of maps, the challenges of accurate measurement on a global scale, and the role of scientific authority in creating the modern world.

A revelatory tale of how the human brain develops, from conception to birth and beyondBy the time a baby is born, its brain is equipped with billions of intricately crafted neurons wired together through trillions of interconnections to form a compact and breathtakingly efficient supercomputer. Zero to Birth takes you on an extraordinary journey to the very edge of creation, from the moment of an egg’s fertilization through each step of a human brain’s development in the womb—and even a little beyond.As pioneering experimental neurobiologist W. A. Harris guides you through the process of how the brain is built, he takes up the biggest questions that scientists have asked about the developing brain, describing many of the thrilling discoveries that were foundational to our current understanding. He weaves in a remarkable evolutionary story that begins billions of years ago in the Proterozoic eon, when multicellular animals first emerged from single-cell organisms, and reveals how the growth of a fetal brain over nine months reflects the brain’s evolution through the ages. Our brains have much in common with those of other animals, and Harris offers an illuminating look at how comparative animal studies have been crucial to understanding what makes a human brain human.An unforgettable chronicle of one of nature’s greatest achievements, Zero to Birth describes how the brain’s incredible feat of orchestrated growth ensures that every brain is unique, and how breakthroughs at the frontiers of science are helping us to decode many traits that only reveal themselves later in life.

This is a book about leadership. Leading one's self. Leading a team. Leading a project or event. Leading an entire organization. It's about leading in a deliberate and disciplined way. Using a structured approach. Most of all, this book is about results. Making progress. Moving, as the title suggests, from zero to something, both at work and in life. As a retired soldier and longtime HR and training executive, I realize Zero to Something is probably the eleventy billionth leadership book on the market. I have read and prescribed many of them during my 30-some-year leadership career. This book, of course, is different. Better. It's the definitive take on leadership. The book to replace all other leadership books. Well, not really. But such hyperbole sure sounds good, doesn't it? That's the Donald Trump School of Leadership: simply exude uber-confidence in all matters and situations, and others will surely follow or at least buy what you're selling. The truth, in my view, is that confidence AND humility are both cornerstones of great leadership. So, while I do passionately believe in the tenets of this book (after all, they've served me well personally), I am not na ve. No book can hold all the truths of leadership. There is no such code to be cracked. Leadership, rather, is a deeply personal and individual human affair. As such, the goal of my book is to share the leadership approach I have developed over time and, in doing so, help you start or continue on your own personal path. Inside the book, you will indeed find strategies, tactics and nuggets of wisdom that owe their origins to other people and other books. You will find even more insights based on my years of personal experience, trial and error. Most importantly, you will see how I have packaged what I learned into a framework or approach that can be internalized and applied to virtually any leadership situation. My hope is that you will immediately and directly apply the Zero to Something approach and that it will be a catalyst for further development. As you accumulate experiences, work with mentors and develop your own personalized approach, I am confident Zero to Something will remain a cornerstone of your leadership foundation.

It's gamers versus ghosts in this pulse-pounding novella Robby Asaro is dead.And alive.He's a ghost in the machine, keeping a watchful eye on the arcade where he lost his life two decades before. And the afterlife is good. The best thing ever to have happened to him. But when the conscious electric current formerly known as Robby Asaro makes a decision to protect one of his favorite patrons, Tiffany Park, from a bully, he sets loose a series of violent supernatural events that can't be stopped.Trapped inside the arcade as the kill count rises, Tiffany and a group of gamers must band together to escape from what used to be their favorite place on Earth...and the ghost of Robby Asaro.From the author of Tribesmen, Video Night, and The Summer Job, Zero Lives Remaining is a masterful mix of horror and suspense, dread and wonder, a timeless ghost story that solidifies Adam Cesare's reputation as one of the best up-and-coming storytellers around. This is Adam Cesare firing on all cylinders--and he's just getting started.New for 2017: Bonus Short Story Included "Cesare is a true master of fast-paced, fun, balls-out, over-the-top fear fiction, and those narrative talents are on full display in this video-arcade-set gore-o-rama ghost novel..."-FANGORIA"The victims in Zero Lives Remaining are different--far from being the typical lost, wide-eyed fodder, these outcasts and obsessives quickly catch on to the truth of their awful situation and come to battle armed in their own strange ways...enough to leave every joystick of the arcade drenched in blood." -RUE MORGUE"While Video Night is an exceptional novel, the wistfulness in Cesare's latest, Zero Lives Remaining, is twice as thick, the monsters a tad more gooey and intelligent, and the pacing even more insane. The result is a narrative that oozes a bizarre kind of melancholy while celebrating the classic video games and music of a different era while crushing bodies with more speed, creativity, and ease than most current best-selling horror authors put together." -HORRORTALK"Cesare is on the top of his game and delivers possibly his best story yet by unleashing a fountain of energy to keep you turning pages and enough horror to make you think twice about touching another arcade game." -SPLATTERPUNK MAGAZINE"I've yet to read an Adam Cesare novel that didn't A) immediately reach up from the page, grab me by the Dennis Rodman lapels, and pull me face first into the story, or B) get me to fall head over heels for this world before I'm even a quarter of the way through the book." -STEPHEN GRAHAM JONES, Mongrels and The Last Final Girl
