PAPERBACK, very good, light wear to corners and covers are curled outwards. SHUBIK, MARTIN. The theory of money and financial institutions. Volume One. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press, 1999, 453pp., . ONLY VOLUME ONE. - First volume of his vision of "mathematical institutional economics" -- a term he coined in 1959 to describe the theoretical underpinnings needed for the construction of an economic dynamics. The goal is to develop a process-oriented theory of money and financial institutions that reconciles micro- and macroeconomics, using as a prime tool the theory of games in strategic and extensive form. The approach involves a search for minimal financial institutions that appear as a logical, technological, and institutional necessity, as part of the "rules of the game". Money and financial institutions are assumed to be the basic elements of the network that transmits the sociopolitical imperatives to the economy.Volume 1 deals with a one-period approach to economic exchange with money, debt, and bankruptcy - CONTENTS: Introduction and background - The basic financial instruments of an economy - Micro and macro - General equilibrium and beyond - The distribution of resources, trade, and markets - Trade using a commodity money - Market mechanisms with simple markets - Auctions, markets, and trade fairs - Trade with gold, credit, and inside money - Trade with gold and fractional reserves - One-period trade with fiat money - Money, credit, and bankruptcy - Money as a numéraire, means of payment, store of value, and substitute for individual trust - Trade and paper - Liquidity and the velocity of money. 9780262693110 ISBN 0262693119.

Parr, Adrian. Hijacking sustainability. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press, 2009, xii, 209pp., very good dust-jacket, very good blue cloth. "The idea of "sustainability" has gone mainstream. Thanks to Prius-driving movie stars, it's even hip. What began as a grassroots movement to promote responsible development has become a bullet point in corporate ecobranding strategies. In Hijacking Sustainability, Adrian Parr describes how this has happened: how the goals of an environmental movement came to be mediated by corporate interests, government, and the military. Parr argues that the more popular sustainable development becomes, the more commodified it becomes; the more mainstream culture embraces the sustainability movement's concern over global warming and poverty, the more "sustainability culture" advances the profit-maximizing values of corporate capitalism. And the more issues of sustainability are aligned with those of national security, the more military values are conflated with the goals of sustainable development." "Parr looks closely at five examples of the hijacking of sustainability: corporate image-greening by such companies as British Petroleum (BP) and Wal-Mart; Hollywood activism by Leonardo DiCaprio and other movie industry figures; the autonomy of communal ecovillages vs. the military-like security of gated communities; the greening of the White House (and its de-greening: Ronald Reagan famously removed solar panels installed by Jimmy Carter); and the incongruous efforts to achieve a "sustainable" army. Parr then examines key challenges to sustainability - waste disposal, disaster relief and environmental refugees, slum development, and poverty." - CONTENTS: The greening of junkspace -- Green idol -- Ecovillages : an alternative social organization -- The greening and de-greening of the White House -- Green boots on the ground -- Trash -- Disaster relief -- Slums -- Poverty.

Kirby, David A. Lab coats in Hollywood: science, scientists, and cinema. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press, 2011, xiv, 265pp., very good dust-jacket, very good white hardcover. Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey", released in 1968, is perhaps the most scientifically accurate film ever produced. The film presented such a plausible, realistic vision of space flight that many moon hoax proponents believe that Kubrick staged the 1969 moon landing using the same studios and techniques. Kubrick's scientific verisimilitude in 2001 came courtesy of his science consultants--including two former NASA scientists--; and the more than sixty-five companies, research organizations, and government agencies that offered technical advice. Although most filmmakers don't consult experts as extensively as Kubrick, films ranging from "A Beautiful Mind" and "Contact" to "Finding Nemo and "The Hulk" have achieved some degree of scientific credibility because of science consultants. In Lab Coats in Hollywood, David Kirby examines the interaction of science and cinema: how science consultants make movie science plausible, how filmmakers negotiate scientific accuracy within production constraints, and how movies affect popular perceptions of science. - CONTENTS: Scientific expertise in Hollywood : the interactions between scientific and entertainment cultures -- Cinematic science : scientific representation, film realism, and virtual witnessing technologies -- Valuing expertise : the entertainment industry's and scientific community's motivations in the science consulting relationship -- Scientists on screen : being a scientist, looking like a lab -- Cinematic fact checking : negotiating scientific facts within filmmaking culture -- Best guesses : scientific uncertainty, flexibility, and scientists in the aisles -- Fantastically logical : fantastic science, speculative scenarios, and the expertise of logic -- Preventing future disasters : science consultants and the enhancement of cinematic disasters -- The future is now : diegetic prototypes and the role of cinematic narratives in generating real-world technological development -- Improving science, improving entertainment : the significance of scientists in Hollywood.
