Описание:

From the field's leading authority, the most authoritative and comprehensive advanced-level textbook on asset pricing

Financial Decisions and Markets is a graduate-level textbook that provides a broad overview of the field of asset pricing. John Campbell, one of the field's most respected authorities, introduces students to leading theories of portfolio choice, their implications for asset prices, and empirical patterns of risk and return in financial markets. Campbell emphasizes the interplay of theory and evidence, as theorists respond to empirical puzzles by developing models with new testable implications. Increasingly these models make predictions not only about asset prices but also about investors' financial positions, and they often draw on insights from behavioral economics.

After a careful introduction to single-period models, Campbell develops multiperiod models with time-varying discount rates, reviews the leading approaches to consumption-based asset pricing, and integrates the study of equities and fixed-income securities. He discusses models with heterogeneous agents who use financial markets to share their risks, but also may speculate against one another on the basis of different beliefs or private information. Campbell takes a broad view of the field, linking asset pricing to related areas, including financial econometrics, household finance, and macroeconomics. The textbook works in discrete time throughout, and does not require stochastic calculus. Problems are provided at the end of each chapter to challenge students to develop their understanding of the main issues in financial economics.

The most comprehensive and balanced textbook on asset pricing available, Financial Decisions and Marketswill be an essential resource for all graduate students in finance and related fields.

• Integrated treatment of asset pricing theory and empirical evidence
• Emphasis on investors' decisions
• Broad view linking the field to areas including financial econometrics, household finance, and macroeconomics
• Topics treated in discrete time, with no requirement for stochastic calculus
• Solutions manual for problems available to professors

Описание: Successfully tested in the authors' courses at Boston University and Harvard University, this text combines theory and practice in presenting traditional and new epidemiologic concepts. Broad in scope, the text opens with five chapters covering the basic epidemiologic concepts and data sources. A major emphasis is placed on study design, with separate chapters devoted to each of the three main analytic designs: experimental, cohort, and case-control studies.

Full chapters on bias, confounding, and random error, including the role of statistics in epidemiology, ensure that students are well-equipped with the necessary information to interpret the results of epidemiologic studies. An entire chapter is also devoted to the concept of effect measure modification, an often-neglected topic in introductory textbooks. Up-to-date examples from the epidemiologic literature on diseases of public health importance are provided throughout the book.

The Third Edition is a thorough update that offers:
-New examples, the latest references, and public health statistics.
-Nearly 50 new review questions.
-Updated discussion of certain epidemiologic methods.
-New figures depicting epidemiologic concepts.

Описание: Public liberal arts colleges are higher educations gems, yet their intimate campus settings and locations outside of the intellectual-cultural capitals challenge the traditional rhythm of academic careers. Professors trained at elite research institutions, usually located in large urban centres, must adapt to the holistic undergraduate education emphasised at colleges often located in smaller communities. The authors in this collection serve as pathfinders and exemplars for academic careers that integrate teaching, scholarship, and citizenship, rooted in place. Their stories demonstrate that the noblest traditions of higher education might be lived out most meaningfully on small, liberal arts campuses. Contributors include Robin Bates, Jonathan R. Cohen, Julia DeLancey, Roger Epp, Janet Schrunk Ericksen, Kathleen S. Fine-Dare, Dylan Fischer, Ellen Holmes Pearson, Lee Rozelle, Milton Schlosser, M Therese Seibert, Joel Sipress, Bill Spellman, Gary Towsley, Quan Tran, Jeffrey Trawick-Smith, Joseph Urgo, and Jill Wicknick.
