 Frontiers of Evolutionary Economics: Competition, Self-Organization, and Innovation Policy By John Foster, J. Stanley Metcalfe 2001 | 410 Pages | ISBN: 1840645253 | PDF | 2 MB Modern evolutionary economics is now nearly two decades old and in this excellent book, a distinguished group of evolutionary economists identify the most important developments and discuss the direction of future research. By moving away from traditional concerns with the operation of selection mechanisms towards a preoccupation with the manner in which the novelty and variety provide fuel for such mechanisms, the authors identify a key development in the field. Evolutionary economists have been drawn into the modern complexity science literature which attempts to provide an understanding of how and why 'complex adaptive systems' engage in processes of self-organization. The goal is to provide an integrated analysis of both selection and self-organization that is uniquely economic in orientation. After a brief overview of the many key achievements and continuing challenges, the first part of the book deals with theoretical perspectives, discussing institutional change, social constructions, complexity, selection and self-selection and the usefulness of theory. Part two deals with empirical perspectives and includes discussion of replicator dynamics, the measurement of heterogeneity and complexity, and modeling organizations as complex adaptive systems. This unique book will appeal to evolutionary and industrial economists and policymakers involved with issues of innovation and management scientists.  Friendship And Benefaction In James by Alicia Batten English | ISBN 1905679106 | PDF | 2008 | 230 pages | 5,3 Mb Employing social description and rhetorical analysis, this book examines the ideal of friendship within the rhetoric of the letter of James. It argues that the text appeals to the language and ideas of this anicient topos at three levels: between the author and his readers/hearers; among audience members; and between the audience and God.

Elusive Alliance delves into Germany's three-year occupation of Poland and explains why its ambitious attempt at nation-building failed.  Electrochemistry of Technetium by Maciej Chotkowski English | PDF | 2021 | 162 Pages | ISBN : 3030628620 | 6.8 MB This book provides detailed information on the electrochemistry of technetium compounds. After a brief physico-chemical characterization of this element, it presents the comparative chemistry of technetium, manganese and rhenium. Particular attention is paid to the stability, disproportionation, comproportionation, hydrolysis and polymerization reactions of technetium ions and their influence on the observed redox systems. The electrochemical properties of both inorganic as well as organic technetium species in aqueous and non-aqueous solutions are also discussed.
 Krishnan Sankaranarayanan, Hedzer J. van der Kooi, Jakob de Swaan Arons, "Efficiency and Sustainability in the Energy and Chemical Industries: Scientific Principles and Case Studies" English | 2004 | ISBN: 0824708458 | 300 pages | PDF | 2.09 MB Translating fundamental principles of irreversible thermodynamics into day-to-day engineering concepts, this reference provides the tools to accurately measure process efficiency and sustainability in the power and chemical industries-helping engineers to recognize why losses occur and how they can be reduced utilizing familiar thermodynamic principles. Compares the present industrial society with an emerging metabolic society in which mass production and consumption are in closer harmony with the natural environment. The first book to utilize classic thermodynamic principles for clear understanding, analysis, and optimization of work flows, environmental resources, and driving forces in the chemical and power industries.
