English, Irish and Subversives Among the Dismal Scientists

This volume presents commissioned essays on important, but often neglected. English and Irish economists of the 18th and 19th centuries. Notable chapters include Samuel Hollander's extended essay on Samuel Bailey that complements his magisterial reassessement of the classical economists and John Pullen's assessment of John Cazenove's analysis of Say's Law and bank credit. These are but two members of a brave army of heretics and subversives who could most admirably be summed up in Keynes' words as those `who following their intuitions, have preferred to see truth obscurely and imperfectly rather than to maintain error'. This volume aims to bring much needed attention to those forgotten political economists who helped to shape the development of economic theory and policy.

Stochastic Linear Programming

Models, Theory, and Computation

Peter Kall and János Mayer are distinguished scholars and professors of Operations Research and their research interest is particularly devoted to the area of stochastic optimization. Stochastic Linear Programming is a definitive presentation and discussion of the theoretical properties of the models, the conceptual algorithmic approaches, and the computational issues relating to the implementation of these methods to solve problems that are stochastic in nature.

From this short sketch of the subject called SLP, which is by far not complete with
respect to the various special problem formulations to be dealt with, we may
already conclude that a basic toolkit of linear and nonlinear programming

Alternative States of Consciousness in Shamanism, Imaginal Psychotherapies, Hypnotherapy, and Meditation Including a Shamanism and Meditation Inspired Personal and Professional Training Program for the 21st Century Psychotherapist

A Cognitive, Intrapsychic, Experiential, and Transpersonal Research Project and Program

Shamanism, hypnosis, imaginal psychotherapies, and meditation are based on the use of what we in the modern western world think of as non-ordinary human consciousness. These four modalities have fundamental similarities and differences in purpose, theory, technique, type of alternative consciousness, and their application of non-ordinary reality. Shamanism, the oldest and most intertwined with the cultures in which it is practiced, will be explored as a model for individual healing and transformation and professional training. The shamanic way will also be explored as a model of consciousness and a world-view that offers individuals, groups, and society much needed coping mechanisms, healing techniques, and transformative values that may be helpful in dealing with this trying and important transition time for humanity. Imaginal therapies, meditation and hypnosis all have their roots in shamanism, although in some parts of the world at certain times in history, shamanism borrowed from meditation in its adaptation and development.
