Asbestos: Its Production and Use With Some Account of the Asbestos Mines of Canada

This book fills a gap in the existing literature by providing a thorough assessment of EU regulations as a source of secondary legislation and their application in all twenty-seven Member States. It also explores that application in neighbouring countries. EU regulations are perceived as the strongest and the most effective sources of EU secondary legislation and it is well-established by the Court of Justice of the European Union that their provisions have vertical and horizontal direct effect. Part 1 of this book examines these points, providing a backdrop to the analysis in the remaining chapters. Parts 2 and 3 focus on the national reception of EU regulations in Member States, and in selected neighbouring jurisdictions. Written by leading practitioners and academics, the book offers both a conceptual underpinning to this element of the European Union's law-making, as well as its practical application.

The book Finance in Non-Financial Problems applies the concept of finance to non-financial problems including politics, the market for ideas, social networks, free trade, and the law. The principal objective is to use techniques such as portfolio theory, diversification, options, and market efficiency in areas where they have not previously been used. Finance in Non-Financial Problems is then an interdisciplinary resource applying the techniques of uncertainty to new disciplines, providing a new way to look at old problems, presenting problems in the social sciences with a new perspective, and allowing readers to consider political, legal, and social issues in a new way.

Finance In Non-financial Problems

Millennials and Gen Z are in line for the greatest windfall in history-$78 trillion of inherited wealth, $16 trillion of it in the next decade. They are reaching the age where they have money to invest, but risk shrinking their wealth instead of growing it because they don't understand the modern tools of investing and how to avoid their pitfalls. The Gritty Investor covers everything from boring-but-important financial basics to exciting-but-risky digital crazes. You'll learn how to handle an inheritance, manage your cash, beat inflation, survive a layoff, buy a house, and fund your retirement. You'll uncover the authors' best strategies as they explain simple and complex investment vehicles, talk you through the trading apps, and provide action steps for financial life transitions, all illustrated by true stories from the front lines of the investing world. Best of all, the authors will teach you the strategies they use to persevere through the market booms and crashes. They will show you how to resist the lure of crypto-scams and meme-stock frenzies, so that, like the slow and steady tortoise, you win the race to financial security.

Must-read manual to understand the best strategies to manage your finances and grow your money to achieve financial security.

Using an aesthetic culture and techniques termed as jihadi cool, terrorist groups have been able to recruit members from around the world, so how do we begin to respond? This book analyzes the rhetorical and ethical dynamics of a culture of jihadi cool/chic, and why these rhetorical and aesthetic techniques have been such a powerful recruitment force for particular transnational terrorist groups. The author uses an evidence-based approach, with frameworks derived from law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, to examine various attempts to construct counter-narratives to the jihadi cool master narrative. The book closes with an examination of how to begin to respond critically and effectively to the lure of jihadi cool.

How the rise of AI agents--and other forms of autonomous intelligence--will transform every aspect of how companies create value and compete.Companies have long operated with a basic assumption: intelligence is scarce. Talent is limited, expertise is expensive, and good judgment is hard to scale. But that world is ending.AI agents are bringing a new form of labor into the enterprise--one that can work autonomously, learn continuously, and scale instantly. Their embodied counterparts, from drones to humanoid robots, are doing the same in the physical world. Together, these systems are introducing a new economic reality: cognition is becoming cheap, elastic, and abundant.In Abundant Intelligence, Deloitte's Nitin Mittal and futurist Mike Walsh show what happens when intelligence becomes cheap and widely available. Drawing on inside access to the people leading AI transformations at the world's most powerful companies, they uncover how this shift is challenging every assumption about strategy, productivity, and leadership, and what organizations must do now to stay ahead.As abundance becomes the new normal, the leader's job shifts from collecting intelligence to directing it. Those who learn to harness this expanding workforce of digital labor will unlock new levels of speed, creativity, and advantage. For everyone else, the gap will widen fast.

How Digital Labor Will Rewrite the Rules of Business

This open access book critically analyses a wide range of consumer law issues generated or exacerbated by the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things challenges many of the dichotomies which have shaped current laws: goods-services, hardware-software, tangible-intangible, online-offline. The book focuses on 4 specific challenges: things-as-service, liability, bricking of physical devices through software control, and the potential for enhanced personalisation, especially for digital assistants. The chapters analyse specific applications such as smart homes, connected cars, and consumer wearables with a view to providing innovative solutions to the new challenges posed by the Internet of Things, and to steer the development of the Internet of Things in a fairer direction. As well as offering an important analysis of the potential for smart consumer laws in the Internet of Things, the book also provides important insights into the growing divergence between Germany's and the UK's consumer laws since Brexit. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by UKRI (Arts and Humanities Research Council) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).

This book presents an integrative and in-depth approach to understanding electricity markets. It combines engineering, economics, and regulatory and public policy, with business analysis. The first part of the book presents the key concepts in these fields relevant to the study of electricity markets.

The second part of the book contains several chapters on advanced electricity market topics that use the integrative approach developed in the first section.
