Introduction to Quantitative Economics

A groundbreaking bridge between traditional financial theories and emerging interdisciplinary approaches, offering a unique perspective on finance in these uncertain times. From a seasoned expert in finance, behavioral finance, complexity science, and quantum finance. Adaptive Finance is a forward-looking exploration of the evolving world of finance, addressing the most pressing challenges and emerging trends facing financial markets today. It examines how traditional economic and financial models, long dominant in the field, are being redefined by advancements in behavioral science, mathematics, and technology. Financial professionals and academics must confront risks and dynamics that established theories often fail to capture in an era marked by complexity, technological disruption, and global uncertainty. This book provides the intellectual foundation needed to tackle these challenges. The chapters span a wide range of topics—from behavioral finance and causal models to quantum finance and innovations in financial systems—offering a comprehensive view of the forces reshaping finance. The book begins with well-established frameworks and progressively explores cutting-edge concepts, guiding readers through the transformation of financial theory and practice. Each chapter stands on its own, making the book suitable for both comprehensive study and selective reading.

Exploring 500 years of protest and resistance in US history—and what the unsung heroes of social movements past can teach us about navigating our chaotic world In this timely new book in Beacon’s successful ReVisioning History series, professor Gloria Browne-Marshall delves into the history of protest movements and rebellion in the United States. Beginning with Indigenous peoples’ resistance to European colonization and continuing through to today’s climate change demonstrations, Browne-Marshall expands how to think about protest through sharing select historical moments and revealing the role of key players involved in those efforts. Drawing upon legal documents, archival material, government documents and secondary sources, A Protest History of the United States gives voice to those who pushed back against the mistreatment of others, themselves, and in some instances planet Earth. Browne-Marshall highlights stories of individuals from all walks of life, backgrounds, and time periods who helped bring strong attention to their causes. Those examples of protest include those of Wahunsenacock, more commonly known to history as Chief Powhatan, who took on English invaders in pre-colonial America in 1607; legendary boxer Muhammad Ali's refusal to fight in Vietnam and appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court; and David Buckel, LGBTQ+ rights lawyer and environmental activist who protested against fossil fuels by committing self-immolation in 2018. Regardless of whether these protests accomplished their end goals, Browne-Marshall reminds us that not only is dissent meaningful and impactful but is an essential tool for eliciting long lasting change.

Doing Academia Differently

This volume reimagines what it means to begin an academic life by exploring the diverse, nonlinear, and often invisible paths that lead people into academic careers. Through essays blending critique and celebration, it gives voice to those who balance doctoral work with caregiving, activism, migration, and marginalization. The volume challenges the myth of the "ideal academic" and expands the meaning of success in higher education.Readers will gain both insight and affirmation from this collection. The essays deliver practical wisdom and emotional resonance by weaving autoethnography, poetic inquiry, and narrative reflection into acts of resistance and renewal. The book's approach is deeply interdisciplinary, drawing from feminist, postcolonial, and organizational theory, to reveal how structural inequities shape who gets to belong in academia. By modeling reflective, creative, and plurality of writing, it offers readers ways for reimagining mentorship, scholarly identity, and the rhythms of academic life itself.Starting Academia Differently is written for early career researchers, doctoral students, and academic leaders seeking to make universities more humane, inclusive, and imaginative. It will also resonate with educators, mentors, and practitioners in higher education who wish to support diverse trajectories and foster spaces where different kinds of scholarship, and scholars, can thrive.

Starting Academia Differently

A timely, evidence-based guide to reclaiming academic integrity and the mission of higher education. Today's academic integrity policies are punitive, ineffective, and entirely focused on student misconduct. Crafting Ethical Scholarship shifts the paradigm away from compliance by exploring how scholars develop authentic academic integrity through relationships within disciplinary communities. Doubling down on student misconduct won't solve today's AI-powered crisis of academic cheating. What college faculty and administrators need is an alternative to the current lose-lose strategy, one in which academic integrity is recognized as a road map to achieving higher education's highest goals. Crafting Ethical Scholarship recenters higher education as an inspiring place where expert thinkers create, explain, and build new knowledge. Coauthors Karyn E. Kessler, Paul J. Michiels, and Paul M. Rogers take readers inside the writing processes and life journeys of award-winning scholars across disciplines, showing how real academic integrity functions and contributes to the production of knowledge. The book offers a radical new model of academic integrity that relies on community and relationships to build diverse, equitable, and inclusive institutions.

"Read this book to understand human nature." (Preet Bharara) • "An amazing story, well told.” (Anderson Cooper) • "A masterful telling." (Dahlia Lithwick) From CNN legal analyst Elliot Williams, a revelatory account of how one man, four teenagers, and a struggling city collided over race, vigilantism, and public safety . . . exposing the fault lines of a nation On a dirty New York subway car on December 22, 1984, Bernhard Goetz shot Barry Allen, Darrell Cabey, Troy Canty, and James Ramseur, four teenagers from the Bronx, at point blank range. Goetz claimed they were going to mug him; the teens claim that one of them had simply asked for five dollars. Crime was at an all-time high. So was racial tension. Was Goetz, who was white, a hero who finally fought back? Or a bigot whose itchy trigger finger seriously wounded three unarmed black kids and condemned a fourth to irreversible brain damage? By the time Goetz went on trial for quadruple attempted murder, the “Subway Vigilante” saga had become a global sensation, and New Yorkers across race and class were split over whether he deserved decades in prison…or a medal. In Five Bullets, Elliot Williams vaults back to gritty 1980s Manhattan and reexamines the first major true-crime story of the cable news era. Drawing on archives and interviews with many main characters, including Goetz, Williams presents a masterful and vivid tale that also tells the origin stories of larger-than-life figures: Al Sharpton, a polarizing young local activist rocketing to national prominence; Rudy Giuliani, a rising-star prosecutor with an important decision to make; the NRA, which needed a poster boy for its transition from hunting club to political juggernaut; and Rupert Murdoch, whose new purchase, the New York Post, grew his empire by keeping a scary story in the headlines. A shocking account of a pivotal moment in our history, Five Bullets demonstrates why, in order to understand today’s debates about race, crime, safety, and the media, it’s imperative to reflect on what went down in the subway four decades ago. As Williams’s powerful narrative reveals, it was not just Goetz on trial, but the conscience of a nation.
