Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Thomas Sowell “both surprises and overturns received wisdom” in this indispensable examination of widespread economic fallacies (The Economist) Economic Facts and Fallacies exposes some of the most popular fallacies about economic issues-and does so in a lively manner and without requiring any prior knowledge of economics by the reader. These include many beliefs widely disseminated in the media and by politicians, such as mistaken ideas about urban problems, income differences, male-female economic differences, as well as economics fallacies about academia, about race, and about Third World countries. One of the themes of Economic Facts and Fallacies is that fallacies are not simply crazy ideas but in fact have a certain plausibility that gives them their staying power-and makes careful examination of their flaws both necessary and important, as well as sometimes humorous. Written in the easy-to-follow style of the author's Basic Economics, this latest book is able to go into greater depth, with real world examples, on specific issues.

The hiring, firing, retention, compensation, and control of employees in the American workplace is the realm and domain of Human Resources Management. But who, or what, really controls the Human Resources department? But of course, the yo-yo American economy, both a leading and a lagging indicator of the good and or bad, the right and or wrong, of life in Corporate America. And nothing affects the flow of the American economy more than our great and mighty American government. Forever taking more and more money away from the richthat is, anyone with a job and a paycheckand funneling that money into the deep abyss of government bureaucracy; primarily for the purpose of rewarding political friends (crony capitalism), which keeps that massive amount of money from flowing to American businesses and eventually to American workers.

Time and Social Theory
Author: Barbara AdamPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0745669395
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
Time is at the forefront of contemporary scholarly inquiry across the natural sciences and the humanities. Yet the social sciences have remained substantially isolated from time-related concerns. This book argues that time should be a key part of social theory and focuses concern upon issues which have emerged as central to an understanding of today's social world. Through her analysis of time Barbara Adam shows that our contemporary social theories are firmly embedded in Newtonian science and classical dualistic philosophy. She exposes these classical frameworks of thought as inadequate to the task of conceptualizing our contemporary world of standardized time, computers, nuclear power and global telecommunications.
