The CAR-1000 Scale

Carpenter II J: The CAR-1000 Scale

A Universal System for Rating Civilizations

Foundations, Flaws, and Futures

Fundamental Rights for Non-Humans

A definitive collection of essays by one of the leading living theorists of social power, brought together here for the first time. In this consolidated summation of his works, Steven Lukes reflects on the central questions and changing nature of 'the power debate' as it has evolved since the publication of his seminal work Power: A Radical View. Including six essays on power as it relates to central themes of truth, domination and moral responsibility, and engaging with nine influential recent and contemporary theorists of power, Power and Domination and Other Essays provides a major critique of a debate that remains as alive and contentious as ever. Bringing up to date Lukes's work on power in one accessible volume, this book is an essential companion to Power: A Radical View, now in its third edition, and useful for all undergraduate and postgraduate students of the history of social and political thought, political science and political sociology.

Power and Domination and Other Essays

An authoritative textbook based on the legendary economics course taught at the University of Chicago—now fully updated and expanded Price theory is a powerful analytical tool kit for measuring, explaining, and predicting market outcomes. This expanded second edition of Chicago Price Theory offers a unique approach to the subject, emphasizing hands-on, practical applications that can help students adeptly integrate economic theory with real-world forces. A key distinction is its focus on market equilibrium and gains from trade. Unlike many microeconomics texts, this book emphasizes how, through markets, households and businesses adapt to conditions like price controls and externalities. It modernizes the Marshallian idea of forward-falling supply, especially for analyzing human capital, and makes use of the cost function and Hicks-Marshall laws to analyze a variety of economic phenomena. Rooted in Chicago’s price theory tradition, this textbook enables students to understand human behavior through the lens of price theory, showing how a small set of well-mastered tools makes it possible to analyze a remarkably wide range of economic questions. <ul><li>Now includes a full chapter closely integrating economic reasoning with the treatment-control paradigm</li><li>Covers topics such as occupational choice, the evolution of inequality, the value of a statistical life, prohibition, and competition</li><li>Uses the economics of “nudges” to understand business contracts and the organization of civil society</li><li>Features analysis of business-to-business transactions</li><li>Discusses the future implications of artificial intelligence</li><li>Comes with lesson plans for minicourses in industrial organization, health economics, macroeconomics, labor, public finance, and urban economics</li><li>Accompanied by video lectures taught by Kevin M. Murphy, Gary Becker, Casey B. Mulligan, and Robert Minton</li></ul>

Chicago Price Theory, Second Edition

In Shock and Yawn, Megan Sibbett confronts state-sanctioned, mundane violence committed in the name of protection and argues that queer storytelling is an ideal avenue for recognizing, theorizing, and subverting it: Through queer stories, we have a direct window into the real-world ramifications of violence that purports to be for the public good. This violence, reinforced and normalized through surveillance campaigns, failure-to-protect laws, border policies, and government messaging, is obscured by both its banality and its benevolent veneer, in which children, or imagined children, are central to its logic of protection.
 
 Building on queer theorists' critiques of intimate and administrative violence, especially Gloria Anzaldúa's "intimate terrorism," Sibbett develops methodologies for conceptualizing and subverting violence aimed at queer, racialized, and gendered bodies in this era of surveillance and increasing authoritarianism. Sibbett addresses book bans, anti-trans legislation, idealized histories of westward expansion, and more, examining materials that include public service announcements, advertising, social media, news reports, poems, interviews, and novels. In so doing, she demonstrates the crucial role queer testimonies-and queer histories and queer futures-play in revealing systemic violence and illuminating the transformative potential of everyday resistance.

Unlocking the World's Secrets, One Story at a Time

100+1 Stories You Don't Know and Other Curiosities

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.

The TV and Movie industries created the Italian American stereotypes we know today. 
These stereotypes don't reflect the extraordinary impacts of Italian American individuals of all ages and economic backgrounds on the cultural and economic advancement of the United States to address this, the Italian American Reputation Lab (IARL) is presenting an analytic report on how the historical and current Italian diaspora depict a very different narrative than the mainstream media of how Italian-Americans have contributed to shaping the cultural and economic fabric of the United States.

Davide Ippolito is one of the foremost international experts on Reputation Literacy, Reputation Management, and Contents Creation. He's a publisher, a filmmaker, and a producer of both feature films and documentaries which are available on Amazon Prime and Pluto. Founder of the streaming media platform Business+, he serves as the Chief Scientific Officer for the USA-based Italian American Reputation Lab (IARL). For a decade Ippolito consulted with prominent Italian organizations and media/TV outlets operating in the diplomatic, academic, and industrial sectors. In recent years he has been engaged by international and US entities such as the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF), the Columbus Foundation, and the United Nations. Davide has authored several books on the Reputation Management topic and on September 12th, 2023, he released his new docu-film "New York Solo Andata" at the Italian Cultural Center of New York City. Davide regularly writes for several Italian magazines and newspapers, and he participates in various Italian national television news programs and talk shows.

Oltre L'Algoritmo - Volume II

The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State is an 1884 philosophical treatise by Friedrich Engels. It is partially based on notes by Karl Marx to Lewis H. Morgan's book Ancient Society (1877). The book is an early historical materialist work and is regarded as one of the first major works on family economics.

The writing of The Origin of the Family began in early April 1884, and was completed on 26 May. Engels began work on the treatise after reading Marx's handwritten synopsis of Lewis H. Morgan's Ancient Society; or, Researches in the Lines of Human Progress from Savagery, Through Barbarism to Civilization, first published in London in 1877. Engels believed that Marx had intended to create a critical book-length treatment of the ideas suggested by Morgan, and aimed to produce such a manuscript to fulfill his late comrade's wishes

The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State

A thrilling history of how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us. 'Science and technology never seem more exciting than when James Gleick is writing about them' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction 'Forces you to see the world with new eyes. Blending expertise with a thrilling narrative . . . I loved it!' - Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen and Eleanor 'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' - Stacy Schiff, author of The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams A supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar, the telephone burst onto the world stage 150 years ago, a triumphant story of individual ingenuity and vision. Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. But the story of The Telephone is also one of corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics; the race to the patent office, to make money, a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation. And no one, not even its inventors, realised what the telephone was good for or how ubiquitous it would become. As the telephone settled into the background - in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls - people forgot how they ever lived without it. Now, as landlines, telephone books and telephone boxes vanish into the past, bestselling author James Gleick shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings. 'Gleick does what only the best science writers can do: take a subject of which most of us are only peripherally aware and put it at the center of the universe' - Time

A New History

The Telephone

In a world driven by metrics, accolades, and relentless performance
standards, the question is no longer whether we are qualified-but
whether we feel qualified. For decades, researchers and professionals
have documented a striking phenomenon: individuals who, despite evident
achievements and capabilities, carry the persistent fear of being "found out"
as frauds. These are people who may have spent years building expertise,
delivering results, and earning trust-yet still doubt whether they deserve
any of it.
