Soft cover. Zustand: New. Is it possible for the Marxist philosophy of dialectical materialism to co-exist with Indic spirituality within the same individual? Well, Samir is one such person. His life has been a journey of seeming contrasts, with the most bizarre twists and turns. As a young man in Kolkata living in a society stifled by class and brazenly corrupt systems, he hopes to create a better world. He adopts the life of a radical Leftist. Unfortunately for him, the 'movement' dies abruptly and tragically, but not before attaching a dark secret in Samir's life. To leave his past behind, Samir escapes to the shores of Europe and onwards to USA hoping to be 'free'. But how can an immigrant be free in a country where you are often judged by the colour of your skin? Racism follows him from the streets of Memphis to the glass ceilings in corporate California. An unhappy marriage makes life even more difficult. He turns to Indic spirituality for answers and hopes to tame his fears. Just when he starts succeeding, something happens on Samir's sixtieth birthday that compels him to re-evaluate his understanding of life. This is the first-of-its-kind story of an Indian immigrant who ends up unable to rid himself of the fear of hope.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - These proceedings present the technical contributions to the First Conference on A- tions, Market Mechanisms, and Their Applications (AMMA), held May 8-9, 2009 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. The conference was devoted to issues that arise in all stages of deploying a market mechanism to solve a problem, including theoretical and empirical examinations. In addition to more traditional academic papers, the conf- ence placed emphasis on experiences from the real world, including case studies and new applications. The main goal of AMMA was to explore the synergy required for good mechanism design. This includes an understanding of the economic and game-theoretic issues, the ability to design protocols and algorithms for realizing desired outcomes, and the knowledge of specific institutional details that are important in practical applications. We were lucky enough to attract papers and talks from economists and computer scientists, theorists and empiricists, academics and practitioners. The program, as reflected in these proceedings, ranged from fundamental theory on auctions and m- kets to empirical design and analysis of matching mechanisms, peer-to-peer-systems, and prediction markets.
