Review Artistic Capital / Routledge:

At what stage of their careers do great artists produce their most important work? In a series of studies that bring new insights, and new dimensions, to the study of artistic creativity, Artistic Capital examines the careers of more than 100 modern painters, poets, and novelists to reveal a powerful relationship between age and artistic creativity. David Galenson's analysis of the careers of such major painters as Cézanne , van Gogh, Picasso, Pollock, and Warhol, such important novelists as Dickens, Woolf, Joyce, and Hemingway, and such key poets as Frost, Eliot, Lowell, and Plath reveals the very different methods by which artists have made innovations. Remarkably, each method is associated with a distinctive pattern of discovery over the life cycle. The book's use of simple but powerful quantitative analysis permits systematic generalization about large numbers of artists. Pointing to a new and richer history of the modern arts, Artistic Capital will be of interest not only to humanists and social scientists, but to anyone interested in the nature of human creativity in general.

Review Econometric Modelling of Stock Market Intraday Activities (Advanced Studies in Theoretical and Applied Econometrics) / Springer:

The recent widespread availability of intraday tick-by-tick databases for stocks, options and currencies has had an important impact on research in applied financial econometrics and market microstructure. Econometric Modelling of Stock Market Intraday Activity focuses on the econometric modelling of intraday tick-by-tick transaction data (trades and quote) for stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Recent quantitative modelling tools such as intraday duration models and GARCH modes are presented. A survey of trading mechanisms in financial markets and a review of market microstructure issues is also included, which allows to gain a better understanding of the motivation underlying the use of the quantitative models. In the empirical applications, the link is made with the models of the market microstructure literature that have proposed an explicit treatment of time in the trading process. Other empirical applications deal with the modelling of intraday volatility and intraday Value-at-Risk. Although the models are applied to data for stock traded on the NYSE, they are not specific to this exchange and could be used to analyze other existing trading mechanisms. Accordingly, this book should be of interest to academics and graduate students involved in empirical finance and applied econometrics, regulators working for exchanges, and practitioners in banks or brokerage firms.
