Review SAGE Sourcebook of Modern Biomedical Devices: Business Environments in a Global Market (Sage Sourceboook) / Sage Publications, Inc:Biomedical devices undoubtedly represent one of the most striking examples of the revolutionary developments, in both medicine and technology, in the 21st century. The explosive growth of research, scientific output, industrial market development, and investments in today’s global applications of scientific and technological knowledge to health care is staggering, and all indications point to the continued increase in all these developments in the years to come. Although a significant number of already existing sources try to address the scientific/clinical/technological aspects of biomedical devices, there is practically no reference that illustrates to researchers the commercial potential of the results of their research. The SAGE Sourcebook of Modern Biomedical Devices: Business Markets in the Global Environment is the first accessible, broadly available source of information that presents and quantifies the commercial success of numerous types of biomedical devices available in the global market. It is of great importance, for both the research and the business communities, to identify specific biomedical device types, per major therapeutic areas, most commercially successful in today’s global economic markets, such as in the biggest market (U. S. ), in the Pacific Rim, and in the newly expanded European Union. Currently, such vital information is not available anywhere else, definitely not in a unified source and not in a detailed, well-substantiated, reliable, and easy-to-read form. Key Features Presents, for the first time in one reference source, unique quantitative data and brief comparative analysis of the commercial performance of more than 180 types of biomedical devices Covers devices from practically all major therapeutic areas of application, such as orthopedic devices, cardiovascular devices, gastrointestinal devices, cancer treatment devices, imaging devices, and spinal implants, as well as emerging markets for cardiac surgery devices Offers global analysis of markets per device per therapeutic area, including North America, the Pacific Rim, and Europe Examines commercial success, market shares, and business potential of the rapidly changing new technologies and the new markets; thus, this Encyclopedia will be useful as a possible indication of further direction of research, development, and investments in the biomedical device areas globallyReflects the latest changes in the marketplace with information updated periodicallyPresents data in a concise, clear, and reader-friendly way, with emphasis on graphs, tables, and chartsSAGE Sourcebook of Modern Biomedical Devices: Business Markets in the Global Environment is a truly unique resource not only for academic and corporate libraries and working groups but also for researchers and graduate students working in all fields of biomedical devices, in both physical and life sciences, including departments of Engineering, Materials Science, Applied Physics, Chemistry, as well as medical schools and business schools (with the all important emphasis in health care economics). Businesspeople, government organizations, funding agencies, health care providers, and hospital libraries will also find this a welcome addition to their reference collection.

Review Globalization and Economy (Central Currents in Globalization) / Sage Publications Ltd:Central Currents in Globalization Series The concept of 'globalization' has in an extraordinarily short time become the dominant motif of the contemporary social sciences. Central Currents in Globalization is an integrated collection of four multi-volume sets that represent the systematic mapping of globalization studies. The series sets out the contours of a field that now crosses the boundaries of all the older disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. The result is a gold-standard collection of over 320 of the most important writings on globalization, structured around four interrelated themes: Violence; Economy; Culture; and Politics. The series editor, Paul James (RMIT, Australia), is joined by sixteen internationally-renowned co-editors from around the globe who bring their subject expertise to each volume, including Jonathan Friedman, Tom Nairn, R. R. Sharma, Manfred Steger, Ronen Palan and Micheline Ishay. Together the four sets provide an unparalleled resource on globalization, providing both broad coverage of the subject, historical depth and contemporary relevance. Key Features: Compiles the most important English-language articles and translations in the various sub-themes of globalization Combines contemporary and classic pieces, together with some lesser-known works that have nevertheless made a major contribution Represents the vast range of cultural, philosophical, and political approaches, both within and beyond the dominant British and North American traditions Each volume employs the same accessible structure: Historical Developments, Key Debates, and Critical Projections Each volume is introduced by an accessible and broad-ranging 10,000 word overview, and each section is prefaced by short contextualizations of the chosen articles Set 2: Globalization and Economy Edited by Paul James, with Barry Gills, Heikki Patomäki, Ronen Palan and Robert O’Brien Volume 1: Global Markets and Capitalism (with Barry Gills, University of Newcastle, UK) examines the relationship between global trade, commodity relations, and economic development and covers mainstream takes on economic globalization as well as the two major radical approaches to global markets, world systems theory and dependency theory Volume 2: Global Finance and the New Global Economy (with Heikki Patomäki, Helsinki University, Finland) focuses on globalization and money, finance, and taxation, linking it to the new form of knowledge-based economies Volume 3: Global Economic Institutions (with Ronen Palan, University of Sussex, UK) examines the global institutions and forums of economic governance-the WTO, the World Bank, the IMF, and the World Economic Forum Volume 4: Globalizing Labor and Global Class (with Robert O’Brien, McMaster University, Canada) considers the changing nature of class and labor from the nineteenth century to the present, including the rise of a global labor movement Each volume is introduced by a contextualizing essay written by Paul James and the co-editor.

Review Industrial Policy and Competitive Advantage (International Library of Critical Writings in Economics) / Edward Elgar Publishing:The emergence of industrial policy as a central issue among both policy makers and the intellectual community reflects not only concerns about the international competitiveness of firms and nations but also unemployment and growth. Scholarship on industrial policy has been scattered across a wide range of disciplines and subjects, rendering it difficult to grasp the state of knowledge on the subject. The purpose of this three volume set is to provide the classic articles forming the building blocks of scholarship on industrial policy and present them in an integrated framework. These classic contributions span a number of subjects within economics, such as international trade, industrial economics, labor economics, economic development and technological change, as well as a number of different academic disciplines, including political science, sociology, international relations, and international management. The first volume focuses on The Mandate for Industrial Policy, the second on Instruments and Targets, and the third on Industry and Country Studies.

Review Income Distribution (The International Library of Critical Writings in Economics series) / Edward Elgar Publishing:With increasing interest in the distribution of income generated by movements towards more inequality, this three volume set presents an essential collection of previously published articles by leading scholars, which provide a key to understanding this important and controversial area. Volume I considers the problems of measurement and description and explores theories explaining the shape of distribution; it investigates explanations of the upper tail in terms of hierarchies and organizations and presents research on the dynamics of incomes. Volume II considers the determinants of an individual's income on the one hand and analyzes the factors influencing the entire distribution on the other. Non-labor income and policies that influence distribution are discussed in volume III. This collection will be of great interest to economists, statisticians and policymakers concerned with understanding the complex determinants of income distribution and inequality in our societies.

Review Planning for ASEAN: How to Take Advantage of South-East Asia's Free Trade Area (Research Report) / Economist Intelligence Unit:Asia investment strategies: Business planning discusses the fundamental analysis of markets, competitors and comparative advantage that must be undertaken as part of any strategic approach to Asian markets. It considers the advantages and disadvantages of various market entry options and how the mode of entry can be used to support corporate strategy. Of all the management challenges discussed by the companies interviewed for this report, people issues are stressed most frequently: the report discusses the importance of finding and keeping the right staff and the special cultural challenges facing companies in managing a multinational workforce in a foreign country. A discussion of marketing and distribution highlights the challenges companies encounter in Asian markets and how some of them are responding. The report addresses regulatory issues and financial management, and examines key issues related to entering and managing strategic alliances. Finally, managing the expectations of your own head office can at times be the most challenging part of strategy. The report offers suggestions on how to keep the corporate effort focused and realistic. This report is based on Building a Successful Strategy for Asia written and published by International Market Assessment (IMA), based in Sydney Australia. The original report examined the experiences of major Australian companies in Asia. Asia investment strategies: Business planning includes fresh perspectives from leading US and European players in the region. [+]This additional case study work was carried out on behalf of the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) by Rich Meyer based in Hong Kong.
