Business Economics and Managerial Decision Making
Business Economics and Managerial Decision Making:
Written primarily for students taking courses in managerial economics in Britain and Europe, The Business Economics and Managerial Decision Making analyses the growth and development of privately owned firms and also the decisions made by firms operating in both private and public sector enterprises. Coverage is clear and concise, and avoids specialist techniques such as linear programming, which in a European context tend to belong in courses dealing with operations research. The book also avoids straying into areas of industrial economics, instead retaining a sharp focus on relevant issues such as the theory of the firm and the varying objectives that may be adopted in practice. Key sections are supported by case studies of real firms and actual decisions made.

The Advertised Mind

The Advertised Mind:
Research by Erik du Plessis and his colleagues at Adtrack South Africa, and subsequently at Millward Brown, has helped to show that the strongest factor predicting success is not the scheduling rate, but how much an advertisement is liked. In "The Advertised Mind," Erik du Plessis draws on information about the working of the human brain from psychologists, neurologists and artificial intelligence specialists to suggest why 'ad-liking' is such an important factor in establishing a firm memory of an advertisement and predisposing consumers to buy the brand that is being advertised.

Profitable Candlestick Trading

Profitable Candlestick Trading:
The most ancient form of charting, the Japanese candlestick method has become an extremely popular analytical tool among the new generation of traders. However, because of the aura of mysticism surrounding candlesticks and the arcane terminology typically used to describe them, many traders in the West never really learn how to use them properly and exploit their full potential. Profitable Candlestick Trading demystifies candlesticks for today's traders. With the help of numerous real-world examples, Bigalow clearly explains how candlesticks work, how to read them, and how to maximize profits with them. Bigalow shares some of his original candlestick-based trading programs, the same programs which have yielded impressive results for his clients at leading financial firms in the United States and abroad.

Black Art of Java Game Programming

Black Art of Java Game Programming:
Designing of a great game takes much more than the reading of a good programming book. A game needs a story, fantastic graphics and many other non-programming assets. This range of input is probably only manageable if you have a number of developers. A group of friends will probably go far with this book. E.g. a programmer, a graphic designer and the kind of person who downloads and uses level editors.The object oriented design is quite excellent. Some books are quite weak at showing you how to create and manipulate objects, this book however is a gem. Object Orientation lends itself well to game design. This book exploits that fact and right from the start you will use inheritance and polymorphism to your advantage. This is only sensible, but you will find in many books such subjects only get a couple of paragraphs. I feel for this reason that many programmers new to Java/OOP would find this book very useful.The book is quite old. This is not a problem as it forces the reader to solve problems in the code that have arisen from depreciation etc. This is beneficial, as you will have to engage the code straight away rather than over viewing techniques. The techniques will still apply in the new context of Java 2.A benefit old code is that most projects involving the native compilation of Java will of course only as yet support older versions of Java. In other words your games may not make use of Java2D, Java3D or Swing but they can be very fast.The games in the book are applets, I don’t recall any applications. This is great if you want to write web based video games but I don’t think that Quake would work very well as an applet. (Download Time) So for specific techniques on application programming you probably want a Deitel & Deitel book or a Sams book.If you’re interested in Java Programming, buy this book its not just for Gamers. If you want to write a game then you can do no better. This book will teach you most of what you need to know.

Stocks for the Long Run

Stocks for the Long Run:
If anyone told you that investing in the stock market was the safest investment you could make, you might raise an eyebrow. However, if Jeremy Siegel tells you this, prepare to be convinced. Siegel's book, Stocks for the Long Run, is a comprehensive and highly readable history of the stock market that dramatically makes the case for long-term investing in stocks. In summing up his approach to investing, Siegel writes, "Poor investment strategy, whether it is for lack of diversification, pursuing hot stocks, or attempting to time the market, often stems from the investor's belief that it is necessary to beat the market to do well in the market. Nothing is further from the truth. The principle of this book is that through time the after-inflation returns on a well-diversified portfolio of common stocks have not only exceeded that of fixed income assets but have actually done so with less risk. Which stocks you own is secondary to whether you own stocks, especially if you maintain a balanced portfolio."Stocks for the Long Run considers subjects as diverse as the history of the various market indices and what makes for a business cycle to contrary indicators and the utility of 200-day moving averages. If you've just come into investing in the last few years and feel the need for a solid and comprehensive text about the market, Stocks for the Long Run is probably the best primer available. It also works as an excellent reference for seasoned investors and anyone else interested in how the market works. --Harry C. Edwards --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Enemy at the Water Cooler Aug 2006

Enemy at the Water Cooler Aug 2006:
Today's headlines are littered with news of identity thieves, organized cyber criminals, corporate espionage, nation-state threats and even terrorists. They represent the next wave of security threats but still possess nowhere near the devastating potential of the most insidious threat: the insider. This is not the bored 16 year-old hacker. We are talking about insiders like you and I, who are trusted employees with access to information - consultants, contractors, partners, visitors, vendors, and cleaning crews. Anybody within an organization's building or networks that possesses some level of trust. Some insiders are malicious to begin with, joining organizations with surreptitious motives from the onset. These malicious insiders may work for competitors, organized crime groups, activists, terrorist organizations or even foreign governments. However, most insiders do not start with malicious intent, but become disgruntled or are motivated by financial gain. Other contributing factors can be fear, excitement, politics or even general malice. Others simply make mistakes, having no malicious motive, but their actions nonetheless have serious consequences. The larger an organization gets, the more likely it is to be concerned with insider threats. In a 2005 IDC study, it was discovered that about 40% of large organizations felt that the greatest security risks stem from internal threats as opposed to external attacks. Around 30% of respondents felt that the threats were about equal. Because of these threats, not taking steps to address insiders can ultimately yield regulatory fines, legal fees, litigation penalties associated with class actions, public relations fees, a decrease in shareholder faith, expenses related to placating customers and ultimately lost revenue. There is no security panacea. There is no piece of software that one can install, no box that can be plugged in, no policy that can be written, and no guru who can be hired to make an organization 100% secure. Insider threats are the hardest threats to prevent, most difficult to detect, and most politically-charged to mange. Security is a process that requires vigilance and awareness. It is a merger of people, processes, and technology. Finding the best combination of these variables to mitigate risk helps achieve a strong security posture. With vivid real-life cases, this book addresses the most difficult to manage and costly of all security threats: the insider.

Mechanics of Microelectromechanical Systems
This book offers a comprehensive coverage to the mechanics of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), which are analyzed from a mechanical engineer's viewpoint as devices that transform an input form of energy into output mechanical motion (in the case of actuation) or that can operate with the reversed functionality (as in sensors) and convert an external stimulus, such as mechanical motion, into (generally) electric energy. The impetus of this proposal stems from the perception that such an approach might contribute to a more solid understanding of the principles governing the mechanics of MEMS, and would hopefully enhance the efficiency of modeling and designing reliable and desirably-optimized microsystems. The work represents an attempt at both extending and deepening the mechanical-based approach to MEMS in the static domain by providing simple, yet reliable tools that are applicable to micromechanism design through current fabrication technologies.

Cognitive Radio Architecture The Engineering Foundations of Radio XML

Cognitive Radio Architecture The Engineering Foundations of Radio XML:
This is the first book dedicated to cognitive radio, a promising new technology that is poised to revolutionize the telecommunications industry with increased wireless flexibility. Cognitive radio technology integrates computational intelligence into software-defined radio for embedded intelligent agents that adapt to RF environments and user needs. Using this technology, users can more fully exploit the radio spectrum and services available from wireless connectivity. For example, an attempt to send a 10MB e-mail in a zone where carrier charges are high might cause a cognitive radio to alert its user and suggest waiting until getting to the office to use the LAN instead. Cognitive Radio Architecture examines an "ideal cognitive radio" that features autonomous machine learning, computer vision, and spoken or written language perception.

A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge

A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge:
The Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) is an inclusive term that describes the sum of knowledge within the profession of project management. The PMBOK Guide identifies and describes the subset of principles and practices within the PMBOK that are generally accepted and applicable to most projects most of the time. The guide also provides a common lexicon for talking about project management. Project management is a relatively young profession, and while there is substantial commonality around what is done, there is relatively little commonality in the terms used. An extensive glossary further aids in standardizing definitions of the most important concepts, terms, and phrases.

Trade Like Jesse Livermore

Trade Like Jesse Livermore:
The secret to Jesse Livermore's legendary trading success.Although he began his career in 1892, Jesse Livermore is still considered to be one of the world's greatest traders. In life and in death, Livermore has always been a controversial figure and his methods held up as a model for traders of all generations. Through 45 years of trading and market observation, Jesse Livermore determined that stocks and stock markets move in a series of repetitive patterns. He then developed a series of unique tools, using secret formulas and equations that allowed him to identify and interpret the movement in stocks with uncanny reliability. In Trade Like Jesse Livermore, author Richard Smitten explores the technical aspects of Livermore's trading approach and shows readers how they can use these techniques to garner the success Livermore once did. Trade Like Jesse Livermore covers every aspect of Livermore's trading methods, from discerning market behavior and trends such as top-down and tandem trading to paying close attention to indicators such as one-day reversals and spikes. With this book as their guide, readers can learn how to trade profitably without fear or greed.

Risk Analysis in Theory and Practice

Risk Analysis in Theory and Practice:
The objective of this book is to present this analytical framework and to illustrate how it can be used in the investigation of economic decisions under risk. In a sense, the economics of risk is a difficult subject: it involves understanding human decisions in the absence of perfect information. How do we make decisions when we do not know some of events affecting us? The complexities of our uncertain world and of how humans obtain and process information make this difficult. In spite of these difficulties, much progress has been made. First, probability theory is the corner stone of risk assessment. This allows us to measure risk in a fashion that can be communicated among decision makers or researchers. Second, risk preferences are now better understood. This provides useful insights into the economic rationality of decision making under uncertainty. Third, over the last decades, good insights have been developed about the value of information. This helps better understand the role of information in human decision making and this book provides a systematic treatment of these issues in the context of both private and public decisions under uncertainty. Balanced treatment of conceptual models and applied analysis, Considers both private and public decisions under uncertainty, Website presents application exercises in EXCEL.

Networks in the Knowledge Economy

Networks in the Knowledge Economy:
In today's de-layered, knowledge-intensive organizations, most work of importance is heavily reliant on informal networks of employees within organizations. For example, networks sitting across core work processes, weaving together new product development initiatives or integrating strategic initiatives such as alliances or mergers can be critical to organizational effectiveness. Social network analysis (SNA), a set of analytic tools that can be used to map networks of relationships, allows one to conduct very powerful assessments of information sharing within a network with relatively little effort, thereby revealing both points where collaboration is effective and points where improvement is necessary. Unfortunately, many practitioners are unaware of the potential benefits that can be derived from systematically assessing important informal networks. Networks in the Knowledge Economy was organized to provide readings on the application of social network analysis to managerial concerns. It is specifically concerned with networks inside of organizations given the comparative lack of attention they have received in contrast to relationships between companies and advice on how to become a "networked organization."
