41101Mexico since 1980
This book addresses two questions that are crucial to understanding Mexico's current economic and political challenges. Why did the opening up of the economy to foreign trade and investment not result in sustained economic growth? Why has electoral democracy not produced rule of law? The answer to those questions lies in the ways in which Mexico's long history with authoritarian government shaped its judicial, taxation, and property rights institutions. These institutions, the authors argue, cannot be reformed with the stroke of a pen. Moreover, they represent powerful constraints on the ability of the Mexican government to fund welfare-enhancing reforms, on the ability of firms and households to write contracts, and on the ability of citizens to enforce their basic rights.

41103Michael của tôi
“Michael của tôi” là câu chuyện của một người đàn bà kể về người đàn ông của mình. Một người chồng ở ngay bên cạnh, sống, gắn bó, chăm chút, thậm chí chịu đựng nhau. Nhưng Michael là “của tôi” đấy mà cũng không phải “của tôi”. Hẳn nhiên, câu hỏi này không chỉ nảy sinh trong tâm trí của một Hannah, mà của mọi người đàn bà. Họ cùng chung sống, nhưng lại không thuộc về nhau trọn vẹn, nhiều khi họ phải chịu trách nhiệm về cuộc đời nhau, nhưng lại không thể nào hiểu tận sâu thẳm trái tim người kia nghĩ gì.
41104Michael Freeman on... composition : the ultimate photography masterclass
Composition is the single most powerful tool in a photographer's armoury. Unconstrained by any outside influence, it can be a pure expression of individuality, and this is what makes it so important.
41105Michael Freeman On… Light & Shadow
Freeman takes a new and different view of photography's prime commodity, arguing that for the photographer, the rich and evocative world of shadows is the full equal of the actual light that casts them and bathes scenes. He defines the varied qualities of both light and shadows (of which there are at least ten distinct types), and shows how they have particular meaning and purpose. He also argues for integrating exposure and processing with an appreciation of light and shadow quality so as to have full and subtle control. Armed with this understanding and these techniques, the creative photographer can work with light and shadow to add depth and quality to imagery.

41110Micro, meso, macro : addressing complex systems couplings
In the domain of science concerned with systems structure and behavior, the issue of the relationship between the micro and the macro level is of key importance. This book concentrates on the interplay between these levels and has a special focus on the level "in between" -- the meso level.An investigation of those links is made through a number of cases from different domains of science, including physics, chemistry, ecology, social science, economics and technology. What is evident is that there are facets regarding meso-level issues that are similar between cases, but also that the domains differ in various ways.
