Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | This volume contains papers that provide an analysis of topics in the following areas: Agent Based Models, Non-linear Time Series Analysis, Financial Market Dynamics, Econo-physics, Deterministic Chaos, Macroeconomic Dynamics.Economics: Complex Windows, does not present contributions to the sterile debate as to the merits of the different grand, or potentially grand paradigms of economics. Rather it offers a balanced collection of methodological advances which can be applied to concrete economic problems. Starting with a presentation of the "complexity approach" to economics, it goes on to provide a collection of applications to areas such as the analysis of market imperfections, risk assessment, non-linear dynamics, forecasting and highly irregular fluctuations. The tools used help to provide a clearer understanding and a more accurate analysis of these areas of economics. They also highlight the gulf which exists between current economic theory and real economic practice. The basic idea is to encourage economic researchers to embrace a more open and pragmatic approach to economics rather than to reluctantly move in this direction as if it were somehow a betrayal of established dogma. We hope, in this way, to open up avenues which will lead to progress beyond the "holy trinity", (rationality, equilibrium and greed) of modern economics.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'In some ways, the e ect of achieving understanding is to reverse completely our initial attitude of mind. For everyone starts (as we have said) by being perplexed by some fact or other: for instance. the fact that the diagonal of a square is incommensurable with the side. Anyone who has not yet seen why the side and the diagonal have no common unit regards this as quite extra- dinary. But one ends up in the opposite frame of mind. for nothing would so much abbergast a mathematician as if the diagonal and side of a square were to become commensurable'. [Aristotele] This is the rst volume of a new series entitled 'New Economic Windows'. Each volume in the series will, we hope, provide pointers towards a better understanding of the nature of economic phenomena and help to 'reverse our initial state of mind' as economists. As H. Simon observed, Economics must be considered a 'hard', (in the sense of di cult rather than precise), science. As he cogently argued, the problems dealt with are so complex they 'cannot simply be reduced to analytically solvable models or decomposed into sepa- 1 rate sub processes'. In this he was following on from Einstein who, many years earlier, when asked why he had not turned his attention to economics said that he found it too di cult a subject to handle scienti cally.…
