Описание: A reissue of classic backlist titles from the author of the best selling Farseer Trilogy and The Liveship Traders books. The fourth book in the Megan Lindholm (Robin Hobb) backlist. LUCK OF THE WHEELS is the fourth and final book in THE WINDSINGERS series, following HARPY'S FLIGHT, THE WINDSINGERS and THE LIMBRETH GATE, which introduced her popular gypsy characters, Ki and Vandien. Ki and Vandien should've known the money was too good to be true. Three georns and a full orn to be paid on arrival -- just to transport cargo to Villena! The cargo, however, was human, a boy called Goat, and his family seemed just a little bit too anxious to be rid of him. It smelled like trouble. And it was. Not to mention a few other problems Ki and Vandien never imagined...like a lovesick stowaway, an army of rebels and road bandits and a magical detour with death itself.

Описание: A magical, classic tale of the transformative power of love from Megan Lindholm, who also writes as Robin Hobb.
The book is a collection of nine quantitative studies - each probing one aspect of Renaissance Florentine economy and society. These are organized into three parts by topic, source material and analysis methods. Part one, on risk and return, contains two chapters. Chapter 1 studies Florentine plague outbreaks. Recent work has highlighted the incompatibility of evidence from written records with medical evidence. The chapter reconciles these approaches by using financial market evidence to interpret the written records. The next chapter examines a commonly used interest rate time series for Renaissance Florence. Significant literature has evolved during the past quarter century that measures interest rates to assess state formation trends in late medieval and early modern Europe. This chapter links financial theory and medieval law to better measure the Florentine interest rate, showing that the interest rate evidence used to date must be reconsidered.
The second part examines Florentine society. This part shows how Florentine occupations can be separated into two categories by comparing wealth levels and distributions; demonstrates that the architectural and artistic explosion during the mid-fifteenth century was the result of a subsidy - a tax loophole that exempted the home and its furnishings from an significant new tax, leading to a transfer of assets into art and architecture; finds that Florentine neighbourhoods remained integrated between the mid-fourteenth and late fifteenth centuries; and provides evidence that the modern life-cycle curve of wealth accumulation might not have held true in Renaissance Florence.
The final part looks at work - focusing specifically on the wool industry. It examines the historical structure of Florentine firms and offers a wide range of evidence to demonstrate that the industry's firms were small and perfectly competitive with little monopoly power. It also demonstrates the value of dynamic data in understanding women's work during the late medieval and early modern periods. Finally, it shows that the foundation of the Florentine cloth industry reduced the risk facing the individual company by relying on a combination of a guild organization and the putting-out production system - both systems that are rejected by economic theory as hopelessly inefficient.

Описание: Lars Noren is generally considered Sweden's greatest playwright since August Strindberg. He has written about 75 plays that combine humor, a powerful emotional impact and the search for new forms of expression, which are regularly performed throughout the Nordic and European countries. Although his work has been translated into various languages for the stage, we are exclusively publishing Noren's plays in book format in English--a project started in spring 2013 with Two Plays: And Give Us the Shadows and Autumn and Winter. This volume includes: * Demons (1982), a very dark comedy that is an expressionist take on Albee's A Delicate Balance and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, set in a Stockholm apartment on the eve of a funeral; * Act (2000), about a power struggle between a female terrorist on a hunger strike and the doctor who tries to make her eat again, set in a German prison; and * Terminal 3 (2006), a beautiful, sparse play set in a hospital waiting room where a young couple is there to welcome the birth of their first baby and a middle-age couple is there to identify their dead son. "Lars Noren, regarded by many as the greatest Swedish playwright since Strindberg, has dealt with the love-hate relationships of modern dysfunctional families in emotionally powerful and sombre plays spiced with absurd humour." --Encyclopedia Britannica Online "He has made the present time our home and exposed the anxiety beneath the surface of the welfare state." --Per Wastberg, former chairman of International PEN and editor-in-chief of Sweden's largest daily newspaper
