1 Heinzen, Thomas
Social psychology / Thomas Heinzen and William Paterson.-
Los Angeles: Sage, 2019.
xxv, 601 p. , 29 cm.
ISBN : 9781506357515.
302 HEI 146527
The authors present social psychology as an evolving,
science-driven conversation. Every chapter builds on core
questions central to scientific inquiry, while a methods-
in-context approach cultivates psychological literacy.
Heinzen and Good friend draw students in by weaving
stories drawn from their own personal experiences with
compelling examples from popular culture, all carefully
placed in historical context. Because application is key,
the book concludes with eight mini-chapters on topics
including behavioral economics, environmental
sustainability, law and the courtroom, positive
psychology, and more. Students will become active
participants in the social psychology dialogue, finding
their fascination with the field and realizing its
significance in their daily lives and future careers.

3 Canterbery, E Ray
Inequality and global supra-surplus capitalism / E Ray
Canterbery.-- New Jersey: World Scientific, 2018.
x, 368p. , 24 cm.
ISBN : 978981320082.
305 CAN 146524
This book is written as a sequel to John Kenneth
Galbraith-s The Affluent Society, and provides a
theoretical framework, for the first time, for surpra-
surplus capitalism. Conventional economics has the income
and wealth distributions as -givens-. This assumption
immediately excludes such distributions from economic and
social concern. Occasionally, economists such as Kenneth
Boulding and even earlier, Michal Kalecki, have attempted
to develop alternative perspectives in which such
distributions are integral to the story and therefore
have implications for public policy. At the same time,
conventional microeconomics is a theory of price only in
which economic efficiency (in an engineering sense) is
the only value to be optimized.

4 Litao, Zhao
China-s development : social investment and challenges /
Zhao Litao.-- New Jersey: World Scientific, 2017.
vii,165p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9789813223448.
306.30951 LIT 146519
China has made remarkable yet uneven progress in social
development. This book analyses China-s achievements and
problems in social development from the perspective of
social investment. Social investment has gained
popularity in Europe as a new social policy paradigm. It
seeks to use government budget more efficiently and
effectively by investing in people rather than -social
consumption-. This book focuses on a few policy areas
central to social investment and capacity building,
including education, technical training, RandD, and the
hukou reform. It also analyses challenges and limitations
of China-s social investment policies. It sheds light on
the most notable feature of China-s social investment
regime, which is the concentration of resources,
privileges, and policy support on sectors and
institutions with more growth potential.

Trading floors in the 60s and 70s involved hundreds of
people shouting bids and offers in multi-coloured jackets
standing next to each other in different pits,
gesticulating with their hands. The decibel levels were
extremely high, so high that traders who traded every day
had hearing problems later in life. In 1980, the first
widely used electronic trading exchange was established.
On September 1, 1969, the California Commodity Advisory
Research Project (CCARP) was formed and housed at UC
Berkeley. The project-s first aim was to examine the
feasibility of an electronic, for-profit exchange. At the
time, there were only 12 exchanges worldwide, and none
were for-profit or electronic. Read first-hand from
Richard Sandor, the project director and how CCARP was 20
years too early for the financial world.

ISBN : 9781119303336.
519.538 HIR 146494
In this important book, internationally acclaimed
statistician, Chihiro Hirotsu, goes beyond classical
analysis of variance (ANOVA) model to offer a unified
theory and advanced techniques for the statistical
analysis of experimental data. Dr. Hirotsu introduces the
ground breaking concept of advanced analysis of variance
(AANOVA) and explains how the AANOVA approach exceeds the
limitations of ANOVA methods to allow for global
reasoning utilizing special methods of simultaneous
inference leading to individual conclusions. Focusing on
normal, binomial, and categorical data, Dr. Hirotsu
explores ANOVA theory and practice and reviews current
developments in the field.
