Lectures on Electromagnetic Theory provides a concise, self-contained introduction to graduate-level electromagnetic theory, organized for a one-semester course. Written in a "theoretical minimum" style, the text emphasizes clear physical insight and mathematical precision. The five chapters cover Maxwell equations and fundamental theorems; wave propagation, plane-wave expansion, and guided waves; electromagnetic radiation and Green functions; analytical scattering theory for canonical targets; and an introduction to relativistic electrodynamics linking classical electrodynamics with special relativity. The book serves both beginning graduate students and researchers seeking a compact reference.

Econophysics has been used to study a range of economic and financial systems. This book uses the econophysical perspective to focus on the income distributive dynamics of economic systems. It focuses on the empirical characterization and dynamics of income distribution and its related quantities from the epistemological and practical perspectives of contemporary physics. Several income distribution functions are presented which fit income data and results obtained by statistical physicists on the income distribution problem. The book discusses two separate research traditions: the statistical physics approach, and the approach based on non-linear trade cycle models of macroeconomic dynamics. Several models of distributive dynamics based on the latter approach are presented, connecting the studies by physicists on distributive dynamics with the recent literature by economists on income inequality. As econophysics is such an interdisciplinary field, this book will be of interest to phys

Economic inequality has become a focus of prime interest for economic analysts and policy makers. This book provides an integrated approach to the topics of inequality and personal income distribution. It covers the practical and theoretical bases for inequality analysis, applications to real world problems and the foundations of theoretical approaches to income distribution. It also analyses models of the distribution of labour earnings and of income from wealth. The long-run development of income - and wealth - distribution over many generations is also examined. Special attention is given to an assessment of the merits and weaknesses of standard economic models, to illustrating the implications of distributional mechanisms using real data and illustrative examples, and to providing graphical interpretation of formal arguments. Examples are drawn from US, UK and international sources.

神級業務導師教你打通任督二脈的成交勝經找到方法，獲利只是結果，找對教練，讓你沒有難做的生意，秒速成交！不論你是剛入行的業務菜鳥、或是多年的銷售老鳥，甚至是行業中的TOP SALES，本書將幫助你的業績三級跳，達到連你自己都想像不到的高峰，是你絕不能錯過的練功祕笈。想要提升業績，改變過去，創造未來，邁向超越巔峯人生，就一定要擁有本書！內容搶先看!!用INCOME問句法，導引客戶消費談起銷售，業務大師們可能會教我們一件事。事實上，在我過往的專欄裡也提到過，那就是「站在對方的立場上想事情」。當我們可以將心比心，真正為了對方的利益來思考，那麼在做銷售時，至少心境上，會更加的理直氣壯，因為我是為了「幫助你」所以賣東西給你。但回歸到人性，我們真的有那麼利他嗎？除非我們要自己騙自己，認為當自己手上帶著商品或樣品，當面對著全然不認識的陌生人，我們也同樣總是為對方著想。必須說，這樣子的事，不要說自己不信，連買方也絕不會相信，最終，雙方都心知肚明，業務工作就只是想賣東西賺你口袋的錢。當然，基本的道理仍是不變的，我們要站在對方的角度想事情，並且這是一種「心靈的境界」，最高境界是「銷售一切都是為了愛」，例如世界級銷售大師喬・吉拉德，就已到達這個境界。但對一般業務工作者，在到達這樣境界前，我們不免還是要透過話術以及各種技巧，最終目標還是要締結成交。這裡，我要分享的就是我對此發展出的一套理論，叫做INCOME問句法則。問對問題，也要做對回應是的，是問句法則，而不說是業務法則，或銷售法則。因為，人與人間的互動要發展出新的結果，都是靠「問出來的」，這不限於業務，包括男孩追女孩、老師說服學生努力用功，或者員工希望老闆加薪，都是一種互動，而透過適當的問句，希望「引領」到你想要的結果。所謂INCOME，一看字面就知道，是收入。對業務工作者來說，就是明確的要有「進帳」，對其他想追求加薪、追求愛情、追求一種承諾的人也都一樣，INCOME就是各種形式的「進帳」，如愛情進帳、關係溫度進帳等等。但INCOME在這裡也是一種方便記憶的心法，因為INCOME剛好也代表著這套理論的五個步驟。INCOME問句法則，對應著人與人間交流的五個流程，分別是★ INquiry（提出詢問，洽詢）★ Call（搜尋，回答）★ Offer（回饋，對應）★ Manage（管理，導引）★ Expect（期望值）我們把五個流程的字首合起來，

Drawing on Chinese cultural and philosophical traditions, this book offers a ground breaking reinterpretation of world politics from Yaqing Qin, one of China's leading scholars of international relations. Qin has pioneered the study of constructivism in China and developed a variant of this approach, arguing that culture defined in terms of background knowledge nurtures social theory and enables theoretical innovation. Building upon this argument, this book presents the concept of 'relationality', shifting the focus from individual actors to the relations amongst actors. This ontology of relations examines the unfolding processes whereby relations create the identities of actors and provide motivations for their actions. Appealing to scholars of international relations theory, social theory and Chinese political thought, this exciting new concept will be of particular interest to those who are seeking to bridge Eastern and Western approaches for a truly global international relations p

In this concise yet comprehensive guide to the mathematics of modern portfolio theory the authors discuss mean-variance analysis, factor models, utility theory, stochastic dominance, very long term investing, the capital asset pricing model, risk measures including VAR, coherence, market efficiency, rationality and the modelling of actuarial liabilities. Each topic is clearly explained with assumptions, mathematics, limitations, problems and solutions presented in turn. Joshi's trademark style of clarity and practicality is here brought to classical financial mathematics. The book is suitable for mathematically trained students in actuarial studies, business and economics as well as mathematics and finance, and it can be used for both self-study and as a course text. The authors' experience as both academics and practitioners brings clarity and relevance to the book, whilst ensuring that the limitations of models are highlighted.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to modern auction theory and its important new applications. It is written by a leading economic theorist whose suggestions guided the creation of the new spectrum auction designs. Aimed at graduate students and professionals in economics, the book gives the most up-to-date treatments of both traditional theories of 'optimal auctions' and newer theories of multi-unit auctions and package auctions, and shows by example how these theories are used. The analysis explores the limitations of prominent older designs, such as the Vickrey auction design, and evaluates the practical responses to those limitations. It explores the tension between the traditional theory of auctions with a fixed set of bidders, in which the seller seeks to squeeze as much revenue as possible from the fixed set, and the theory of auctions with endogenous entry, in which bidder profits must be respected to encourage participation.
