Review British Economic Thought in the 17th and 18th Centuries (History of British Economic Thought) / Routledge:

This second collection in the History of British Economic Thought series, brings together the classic works of British political economists from the 17th and 18th centuries. The works of renowned "father of modern economics," William Petty and Bristol merchant, John Cary, both help to represent the 17th century perspective on economics, statistics, trade and the employment of the poor. These highly influential authors made vital contributions to the study of economics and are represented in this volume by the most comprehensive editions of their writings. These volumes also include the innovative works of Robert Wallace and James Steuart, which are of prime importance in economic theory. A friendly controversy with David Hume led to the publication of Wallace's book, while Steuart's work proved to be the first British attempt at establishing a systematic view of political economies. In addition, these two books were important precursors to the work of Malthus. This section of the series also includes the writings of Irish philosopher, George Berkeley and English Utilitarian, Jeremy Bentham, who both made major contributions to the study of economics. The now scarce original edition of Berkeley's "Querist," is here reprinted as is Bentham's publication supporting free trade and moneylending with interest, a philosophy which profoundly influenced his friends, James Mill and David Ricardo.

The collection is also intended to demonstrate the extent and limits of responsibility, particularly British and French, for territorial decisions, and likewise the extent of solid international agreement on the delimitation of Palestine boundaries in the past.

Price: $675.00

Review Encyclopedia of Global Environmental Change, The Earth System - Biological and Ecological Dimensions of Global Environmental Change / Wiley:

Volume 2 of the Encyclopedia of Global Environmental Change deals with the fundamental science that underpins the understanding of quantities and processes that control the basic biogeochemical cycles, and the associated changes in ecosystem physiology and structure under current and predicted human-driven global environmental change. These changes also include the dramatic loss of species, and the world's reorganization of biota towards higher homogenization. Main themes covered includes: spatial scales of the biosphere including species, populations, communities, ecosystems, biomes, and the Earth system as a whole a description of the most important efforts of a number of international programs, fundamental in the development of thinking in this new field of science The new understanding provided in this volume forms the basic building blocks allowing: integration of the biospheric processes and quantities with the Earth's physical system into one single Earth system detection of changes in the world's ecosystems' function and structure, both as already visible impacts of global change and also as indicators of change development of the capability to predict impacts on the biosphere brought about by global environmental changes over the next few decades to century. The information within this volume will enable scientists to develop the technical capabilities and policy tools to mitigate and adapt to undesirable changes.

Review Patty's Toxicology, 8 Volume + Index Set (PATTY'S TOXICOLOGY ( 8-VOL SET & INDEX VOL)) / Wiley-Interscience:

PATTY'S has become one of Wiley's flagship publications in occupational health and safety, and the toxicology volumes give proof to the growth and development of the field of toxicology. What began as a single volume devoted to the field with the first edition (1948) of Patty's has now mushroomed into eight. This Fifth Edition will permit us to bring about many badly needed changes to the format and organization of the toxicology volumes. In addition to standardizing the format and sequence in which toxicologic data is presented for all of the compounds, the compounds will be organized according to logical groupings, e. g. , the metals will be covered in 23 separate chapters making up Volumes II and III; Vol. IV will contain four chapters on aromatic hydrocarbons and 7 chapters on organic nitrogen compounds; Vol. V will contain eight chapters on organic halogenated hydrocarbons and four on aliphatic carboxylic acids; Vol. VI will feature three chapters on ketones, two on alcohols, and five on esters; and Vol. VII will include four chapters on epoxy compounds, two on gycol ethers, and eight on synthetic polymers. [+]
The reorganization of chapters in Volumes II through VI by itself will vastly facilitate information searching and retrieval. Volume VIII, like Volume I, does not cover compounds but rather other major issues in toxicology assessment or other forms of toxic agents.

Review The Dictionary Of Modern American Philosophers (4 Volume Set) / Thoemmes Press:

The Dictionary of Modern American Philosophers includes both academic and non-academic philosophers, and a large number of female and minority thinkers whose work has been neglected. It includes those intellectuals involved in the development of psychology, pedagogy, sociology, anthropology, education, theology, political science, and several other fields, before these disciplines came to be considered distinct from philosophy in the late nineteenth century. Each entry contains a short biography of the writer, an exposition and analysis of his or her doctrines and ideas, a bibliography of writings, and suggestions for further reading. While all the major post-Civil War philosophers are present, the most valuable feature of this dictionary is its coverage of a huge range of less well-known writers, including hundreds of presently obscure thinkers. In many cases, the Dictionary of Modern American Philosophers offers the first scholarly treatment of the life and work.
