Описание: Money, currency, capital, credit. It has many names but only one use: our tool for exchange. And as important as money is, it's unfortunately not well understood by most people, to their peril. As representative of the actual value of things in the world, money has no value in itself-the value of money is "borrowed" from the potential things that can be purchased with it. And because there is so much in the world, and so many different people, you would think that money would be as diverse and adjustable as the agreements we make with one another every day. But it's not. Government currencies like the dollar and the euro are one-dimensional, outdated vehicles for wealth. There's so much more potential inherent within the concept of currency, and many are waking up to it. Change is coming to money, and fast. New tools like Bitcoin show us that technology can change the way we think about money. With amazing new ideas and conventions are new questions, like: What is value? What is wealth? Are these things fully captured by modern money, or could it be better? What if everyone had a currency? What if they already do? Welcome to the future of money.
A comprehensive edition and commentary of a late antique codex Mathematics, Metrology, and Model Contracts is a comprehensive edition and commentary of a late antique codex. The codex contains mathematical problems, metrological tables, and model contracts. Given the nature of the contents, the format, and quality of the Greek, the editors conclude that the codex most likely belonged to a student in a school devoted to training business agents and similar professionals. The editors present here the first full scholarly edition of the text, with complete discussions of the provenance, codicology, and philology of the surviving manuscript. They also provide extensive notes and illustrations for the mathematical problems and model contracts, as well as historical commentary on what this text reveals about late antique numeracy, literacy, education, and vocational training in what we would now see as business, law, and administration. The book will be of interest to papyrologists and scholars who are interested in the history and culture of late antiquity, the history of education, literacy, the ancient economy, and the history of science and mathematics.

Описание: Despite a long and rich tradition of oral history research, few are aware of the innovative and groundbreaking work of oral historians in Canada. For this first primer on the practices within the discipline, the editors of The Canadian Oral History Reader have gathered some of the best contributions from a diverse field. Essays survey and explore fundamental and often thorny aspects in oral history methodology, interpretation, preservation and presentation, and advocacy. In plain language, they explain how to conduct research with indigenous communities, navigate difficult relationships with informants, and negotiate issues of copyright, slander, and libel. The authors ask how people's memories and stories can be used as historical evidence – and whether it is ethical to use them at all. Their detailed and compelling case studies draw readers into the thrills and predicaments of recording people's most intimate experiences, and refashioning them in transcripts and academic analyses. They also consider how to best present and preserve this invaluable archive of Canadian memories. The Canadian Oral History Reader provides a rich resource for community and university researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, and independent scholars and documentarians, and serves as a springboard and reference point for global discussions about Canadian contributions to the international practice of oral history. Contributors include Brian Calliou (independent scholar), Elise Chenier (Simon Fraser University), Julie Cruikshank (University of British Columbia), Alexander Freund (University of Winnipeg), Steven High (Concordia University), Nancy Janovicek (University of Calgary), Jill Jarvis-Tonus (independent scholar), Kristina R.

Автор: Roger Cooperman, Alexander J Foster Название: Chinese Military Modernization: Select Analyses & Implications ISBN: 1622576233 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781622576234 Издательство: Nova Science Рейтинг: Цена: 110870.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This book explores the question of how the United States should respond to Chinas military modernization effort, including its naval modernisation effort, which has emerged as a key issue in U.S. defence planning. Chinas naval modernisation effort, which began in the 1990s, encompasses a broad array of weapon acquisition programs, including anti-ship ballistic missiles, submarines, and surface ships. Observers believe that the near-term focus of Chinas military modernisation effort has been to develop military options for addressing the situation with Taiwan. Potential oversight issues for Congress include whether the U.S. Navy in coming years will be large enough to adequately counter improve Chinese maritime anti-access forces while also adequately performing other missions of interest to U.S. policy-makers around the world; the Navys ability to counter Chinese anti-ship ballistic missiles and submarines; and whether the Navy, in response to Chinas maritime anti-access capabilities, should rift over time to a more distributed fleet architecture.
