The Egotistical "I"

Written by a chemical engineer rather than by a computer scientist, this book fills the gap between texts which teach computer languages or programming methods and chemical engineering texts which omit details of writing programs. In order to write a computer program and get it to work, general theoretical principles are not enough; one has to actually do the job. This is done in each case by first taking the reader through a manual calculation, then presenting a computer program to perform the same task. Explanation of how the program operates is given in some detail. Topics discussed in this way include: computer flowsheeting; interpretation and accessing of results and physical data; forward feed multi-effect evaporation; binary distillation; linear programming; introduction to finite differences with simple heat exchanger example; steady state multi-dimensional heat conduction; unsteady state heat conduction; solution of automatic control problems using finite differences. In each case, the necessary theory is fully introduced. The programs are written in BASIC - an easily learnt, moderately powerful language available on both mainframe and desk-top computers.

First published in 1984. This book represents a major study of union responses to the economic crisis of the 1970s and 1980s. Abjuring governmental or managerial outlooks, it argues that unions, as representatives of essential producer groups, would be central to the renegotiation of the economic world. The work also stresses the importance of situating union responses to the crisis within the socio-historical evolution of their political economies during the rise and decline of the post-war economic boom. The Social Democratic affiliation of unions in Britain, West Germany and Sweden make them particularly comparable. This title will be of interest to students of politics and economics.

Unions and Economic Crisis

Peter Lange

First published in 1982, Unions, Change and Crisis represents the first detailed, comparative, historical and theoretically grounded study of two of the major trade union movements of Europe. It brings together the results of the first part of the first major study from Harvard University’s Centre for European Studies. The book explores, first individually and then comparatively, the evolution of the French and Italian Union movements through the end of the 1970s. It will be of particular interest for students of trade unions, industrial relations and political economy in France and Italy, but also those interested in the comparative analysis of advanced industrial democracies more generally.

Unions, Change and Crisis

Using a common framework developed by a collaborative Harvard University and Brandeis University affiliated research team, this volume surveys and analyzes the strategic responses of national unions in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain to the last two decades of economic change. Also evaluated is the response of Sweden, long seen as the most successful variation of the European model, as well as EU level transnational unionism. The volume concludes with a reflection on new union positions and their implications, particularly on the question of what will happen to the "European model of society" as a consequence.
