Hardback. Zustand: Good. 2019 Silver IPPY Award Winner in West-Pacific Best Regional Non-Fiction 2018 Silver Nautilus Book Award Winner in Ecology & Environment 2018 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards Finalist in Nature The 2.1 million acres (equivalent to Yellowstone National Park) of the wilderness study area are coming under increasing threat by resource development Essays of personal explorations of the region by an award-winning writer are accompanied by dramatic images from an award-winning photographer The wilderness study area is home to the largest concentration of tidewater glaciers in America and hosts a vast diversity of terrestrial and aquatic mammals, birds, and fish It's been said that a picture is worth a thousand words, and nowhere is that more true than on the pages of A Wild Promise: Prince William Sound. The images of photographer Hugh Rose show you what this region holds--and what will be lost without protection from future resource development. Alongside Hugh's images are eloquent essays covering the natural and cultural history, people, and fragility of this region by noted Alaskan writer Debbie Miller. Alaska's famed Prince William Sound includes more than 3,000 shore land miles of bays, coves, and deep fjords topped by the ice-capped peaks of the Chugach Mountains. More than 1 million tourists visit the region annually, and small family-owned fishing boats, ecotourism, oyster farms, and guide services provide sustainable livelihoods for year-round Alaskan residents. Many Americans first came to know of Prince William Sound through the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989--a catastrophe with lingering long-term effects, such the collapse of the once abundant herring population, a critical fish in the marine food chain. In A Wild Promise, readers travel alongside Hugh and Debbie as they hike and kayak from Columbia Glacier to College Fiord, exploring the Nellie Juan-College Fjord Wilderness Study Area, a region set aside for study in 1980, to be followed--it was hoped--by permanent protection from Congress. After almost four decades of being in limbo as a designated wilderness study area, the fate of this spectacular, wild place is now in our hands. Its protection is a gift we can offer generations to come--a promise of wilderness, beauty, and natural diversity that we can, indeed, keep.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. "This book presents a general open-ended macrodynamic system as a framework within which a large variety of macrodynamics theories can be set up and compared with one another. It revives a method taken over for macrodynamics by Keynes from Marshall's dynamic theory of relative prices. The variety of particular theories is obtained partly by special assumptions and partly by closing in different ways the open-ended dynamic system. The main concern of the book is with the traditional "disequilibrium" macrodynamics - with theories that admit unfulfilled expectations or imperfectly functioning markets as dynamic determinants. But the assumptions of perfect foresight and the universal clearing of markets are also accommodated. While attention is directed mainly to formal relationships, there is also an attempt to place the theories in the history of economic thought. It is sought in particular to demonstrate the significance and the continuing relevance of some heated past controversies, such as the liquidity-preference versus loanable-funds dispute, the dispute over the question of whether the commercial banks can create derivative deposits, and the dispute over conditions under which flexibility of money wages can affect employment."
