Download or read book The Collected Works of Henry G Manne written by Henry G. Manne and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Professor Henry G. Manne is one of the founding scholars of the influential discipline of law and economics, as well as founder of the Law and Economics Center at George Mason University and dean emeritus of the George Mason School of Law. Among the first to apply economic analysis to concepts of corporations and corporate law, Manne developed a comprehensive theory of the modern corporation that has provided a framework for legal, economic, and financial analysis of the corporate firm for more than forty years. The works in this three-volume collection, selected by Professor Fred S. McChesney of the Northwestern University School of Law and introduced by leading academics in the field, span nearly half a century of Manne scholarship. Each volume covers a different aspect of Henry Manne's large body of scholarly works. Volume 1, The Economics of Corporations and Corporate Law, includes Manne's seminal writings on corporate law and economics. Manne's theory of the market for corporation control revolutionized thinking about the nature of corporations and the shareholder-corporation relationship. Challenging the accepted wisdom of his time, Manne insisted that market forces could help constrain corporate managers to act in shareholders' interests. Volume 2, Insider Trading, gives not only a retrospective on Manne's innovative contributions to insider trading but also a context for understanding the complex world of corporate law and securities regulation. Manne's proposal to deregulate insider trading shocked the academy and forced a reevaluation of long-held views on the subject. The works included here, which range from scholarly papers to newspaper columns, span forty years and demonstrate the evolution of his understanding of insider trading. Volume 3, Liberty and Freedom in the Economic Ordering of Society, explores Manne's philosophy on corporate social responsibility in modern society and his views on corporate philanthropy. This volume also contains works on the regulation of capital markets and securities offerings; the role of the law school in the modern university; and the relationships between law, regulation, and the free market." -- Back cover.

Download or read book The Compleat Housewife written by Eliza Smith and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in England, this kitchen reference became available to colonial American housewives when it was printed in Williamsburg, Virginia is 1742. Originally published in London in 1727, The Compleat Housewife was the first cookbook printed in the United States. William Parks, a Virginia printer, printed and sold the cookbook believing there would be a strong market for it among Virginia housewives who wanted to keep up with the latest London fashions—the book was a best-seller there. Parks did make some attempt to Americanize it, deleting certain recipes “the ingredients or material for which are not to be had in this country,” but for the most part, the book was not adjusted to American kitchens. Even so, it became the first cookery best seller in the New World, and Parks’s major book publication. Author Eliza Smith described her book on the title page as “Being a collection of several hundred approved receipts, in cookery, pastry, confectionery, preserving, pickles, cakes, creams, jellies, made wines, cordials. And also bills of fare for every month of the year. To which is added, a collection of nearly two hundred family receipts of medicines; viz. drinks, syrups, salves, ointments, and many other things of sovereign and approved efficacy in most distempers, pains, aches, wounds, sores, etc. never before made publick in these parts; fit either for private families, or such public-spirited gentlewomen as would be beneficent to their poor neighbours.” The recipes are easy to understand and cover everything from 50 recipes for pickling everything from nasturtium buds to pigeons to “lifting a swan, breaking a deer, and splating a pike,” indicating the importance of understanding how to prepare English game. The book also includes diagrams for positioning serving dishes to create an attractive table display.

Download or read book The Collected Works written by Russell Conwell and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-11-13 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original inspiration for his most famous essay, "Acres of Diamonds", occurred in 1869 when Conwell was traveling in the Middle East. The central idea of the work is that one need not look elsewhere for opportunity, achievement, or fortune—the resources to achieve all good things are present in one's own community. This theme is developed by an introductory anecdote, credited by Conwell to an Arab guide, about a man who wanted to find diamonds so badly that he sold his property and went off in futile search for them. The new owner of his home discovered that a rich diamond mine was located right there on the property. Conwell elaborates on the theme through examples of success, genius, service, or other virtues involving ordinary Americans contemporary to his audience: "dig in your own backyard!". The book has been regarded as a classic of New Thought literature since the 1870s. Russell Conwell (1843-1925) was an American Baptist minister, orator, philanthropist, lawyer, and writer. He is best remembered as the founder and first president of Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as the Pastor of The Baptist Temple, and for his inspirational lecture, Acres of Diamonds.
