The Economics of Exchange Rates

Sarno, Lucio

Cambridge University Press

This book is a survey of exchange-rate economics. Using the latest econometric techniques, it covers the main theories that explain the determination of exchange rates and utilizes recent empirical data on exchange rate behavior.

Attempting to bridge the gap between the theoretical literature and advanced applied work using time series data, this book emphasizes the intuitive aspects behind the theoretical results, and so provides insights into the solutions of real world applied problems. Recent theoretical innovations such as co-integration, error correction models, ARCH models, disequilibrium Maximum Likelihood models and the Kalman filter are discussed in a framework which builds on standard textbook econometrics. Applications of these theoretical developments are illustrated with real-world practical examples of model building. this book is designed for graduate students of econometrics.

The Vietnam War in History, Literature and Film

An innovative treatment of key episodes of the Vietnam War clarifies the relationships among history, literature, and film.Mark Taylor offers an interdisciplinary approach to the Vietnam War a popular but complex subject that has been variously discussed by historians, filmmakers, and novelists. After outlining the chronology of events during the Vietnam War, Taylor examines five crucial events including the My Lai Massacre, the siege at Khe Sanh, and the homecoming of veterans to explore how "truth" is told in the various tellings. Texts and films examined include The Green Berets, JFK, John Newman's JFK and Vietnam, Dispatches, The Peers Report, The Deerhunter, In the Lake of the Woods, and the Rambo films.

Control for Aluminum Production and Other Processing Industries

An uncomfortable observation in the Shift Logs and Process Control records of most aluminum smelting plants is that process control failures, large and small, happen every day. Although only a small fraction of these failures give rise to catastrophic events, the difference between a disaster we read about and a failure which, although expensive, has no irreversible consequences, is only chance.  Control for Aluminum Production and Other Processing Industries exemplifies new control thinking fused with an understanding of process variability, and how to diagnose abnormalities and their causes in aluminum production plants. Many real life examples in the book demonstrate the importance of human behavior and a scientific, questioning approach in the control of a technologically complex process. Written from the perspective of production staff and management, the book also gives readers a view into the human aspects of accidents and their analogy with failures in control of production. Production plants regularly experience more control failures than successes and staff must continuously strive to establish stability and control of their process. Through on-the-job experiences of the authors and their industry colleagues, the control experiences described in this book provide readers with a foundation for building their own robust control rationale and a framework for avoidance of plant control problems.

Business Economics

Cengage Learning EMEA

This introductory economics textbook is fully focused on the curriculum and pedagogical needs of business economics students. The classic ten principles approach to economics is retained and right at the outset the text considers the business environment so immediately establishing the book's business focus. Both microeconomics and macroeconomics are then comprehensively covered and each perspective is carefully mined for insights directly relevant to business economics students.
