The Anarchists of Casas Viejas

Jerome R. Mintz

"For its intelligence and humanitarian achievements, for its political honesty, for its power and its beauty (there is no other word), this book deserves to be called a masterpiece." —American Ethnologist Jerome R. Mintz's classic study of the lives of Andalusian campesinos who were swept up by one of the 20th century's pivotal social movements provided a new framework for understanding the tragic events that tilted Spain toward civil war. In a new foreword, James W. Fernandez reflects on the fieldwork that led to the book and its contribution to subsequent developments in the ethnography of Europe and the historiography of modern Spain.

New Horizons in Natural Gas Deregulation

New Horizons in Natural Gas Deregulation

Jerome R. Ellig; Joseph P. Kalt

Praeger Publishers Inc
1996
sidottu
In the natural gas industry, competition and contracting are gradually replacing monopoly and regulation. In this volume, many leading economists who follow the gas industry present their views on current and future industry trends. To help regulators and industry leaders better understand these changes and to reform regulation, the authors apply economic theories of contestable markets, public choice, transaction costs and dynamic entrepreneurship to the gas industry. The issues addressed in this work are crucial, not just for the gas industry, but for all industries that have traditionally been treated as regulated monopolies.

Selfdirected Iras

Selfdirected Iras

Jerome R Corsi

Routledge
2024
sidottu
First published in 1986. Self-direction is a simple idea, yet its delivery and administration raise many complex issues. To what extent does a bank or thrift offering securities products within the self-directed IRA take on an investment advice liability? How should the self-directed IRA be constructed? The product mix offered may have to be structured to reflect varying retirement savings strategies as well as customer preference for the degree of risk/reward acceptable in this portfolio investment The contributors to this book, who include bankers, consultants, and trust officers, as well as traditional competitors from the securities and financial planning industries, discuss the spectrum of issues affecting the self-directed account and trust administration.

Cognitive Modeling

Cognitive Modeling

Jerome R. Busemeyer; Adele Diederich

SAGE Publications Inc
2009
nidottu
Cognitive Modeling is the first book to provide students with an easy-to understand introduction to the basic methods used to build and test cognitive models. Authors Jerome R. Busemeyer and Adele Diederich answer many of the questions that researchers face when beginning work on cognitive models, such as the following: What makes a cognitive model different from conceptual or statistical models? How do you develop such a model? How can you derive qualitatively different predictions between two cognitive models? Focusing on a few key representations, the authors introduce a basic problem in each chapter, illustrate the concept with three examples, and end with a summary of general principles, making this book by far the most accessible cognitive modeling book on the market. Key Features Emphasizes modeling by presenting the tools needed to build a cognitive model, rather than simply reviewing existing models of cognition Provides tutorial presentations of psychological, mathematical, statistical, and computational methods used in all areas of cognitive modeling Includes detailed examples applied to real cognitive models published in the literature in a variety of areas, including recognition, categorization, decision making, and learning Stresses the importance of designing the right conditions for evaluating models Addresses the issues of individual differences in cognitive modeling head-on Cognitive Modeling is ideal for students and researchers across the various domains of cognitive sciences, including perception, learning, decision making, and inference. It is intended for use in upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses such as Cognition/Cognitive Modeling, Cognitive Science, Cognitive Psychology, Quantitative Methods, and Mathematical Modeling in Psychology.

Liberators, Patriots and Leaders of Latin America

Jerome R. Adams

McFarland Co Inc
2010
pokkari
This book features biographies of 32 of the most notable figures in Latin American history. To the 23 individuals from the first edition, consisting mostly of revolutionary, political, and military figures of the past, are added nine new biographies of contemporary Latin American presidents, providing an updated view of the region's leadership. Several patterns run through the individual biographies. The concept of native identity is an important aspect in the stories of Malinche, Juarez, Sandino, and Zapata--profoundly affecting the politics of modern Brazil, Mexico, and Nicaragua. One also sees a continuing compulsion to rebel against overwhelming odds in the cases of Manuela Saenz, Che Guevara and Daniel Ortega.

Quantum Models of Cognition and Decision

Jerome R. Busemeyer; Peter D. Bruza

Cambridge University Press
2012

Much of our understanding of human thinking is based on probabilistic models. This innovative book by Jerome R. Busemeyer and Peter D. Bruza argues that, actually, the underlying mathematical structures from quantum theory provide a much better account of human thinking than traditional models. They introduce the foundations for modeling probabilistic-dynamic systems using two aspects of quantum theory. The first, 'contextuality', is a way to understand interference effects found with inferences and decisions under conditions of uncertainty. The second, 'quantum entanglement', allows cognitive phenomena to be modeled in non-reductionist ways. Employing these principles drawn from quantum theory allows us to view human cognition and decision in a totally new light. Introducing the basic principles in an easy-to-follow way, this book does not assume a physics background or a quantum brain and comes complete with a tutorial and fully worked-out applications in important areas of cognition and decision.
