Hardcover (1 to 2 lbs)

Bella edición tapa dura de colección - A través de Mafalda y sus amigos, Quino reflexiona con humor crítico e inteligente sobre la política, la economía y la sociedad en general. Este volumen reúne las tiras más significativas que durante los diez años de vida de Mafalda aparecieron tanto en los diarios como en los libros publicados por Quino. Las tiras se encuentran divididas por personajes y por tema (la escuela, las vacaciones...), lo cual da a los lectores una visión distinta de las aventuras de estos entrañables personajes. En esta nueva edición de colección, los lectores gozarán con las angustias de Felipe al momento de ir a la escuela; con los chismes de Susanita, quien parece saber todo lo que ocurre con la gente y animales del barrio; las bestialidades de Manolito, administrador, mercadólogo y heredero del próspero y célebre almacén "Don Manolo"; Miguelito y sus eternos conflictos existenciales; de Libertad y sus esfuerzos por llevar una vida simple; o de las ocurrencias de Guille, que pueden ir desde la creación del Gato-lupa, hasta darle propina a los gigantes que se encargan de dejar las manchas en las paredes del hogar. A medio siglo de que irrumpieran en la vida de los lectores, Mafalda y sus amigos se mantienen tan jóvenes y vigentes como siempre.

A Course in Asset Pricing

From the field's leading authority, the most authoritative and comprehensive advanced-level textbook on asset pricing In Financial Decisions and Markets, John Campbell, one of the field’s most respected authorities, provides a broad graduate-level overview of asset pricing. He introduces students to leading theories of portfolio choice, their implications for asset prices, and empirical patterns of risk and return in financial markets. Campbell emphasizes the interplay of theory and evidence, as theorists respond to empirical puzzles by developing models with new testable implications. The book shows how models make predictions not only about asset prices but also about investors’ financial positions, and how they often draw on insights from behavioral economics. After a careful introduction to single-period models, Campbell develops multiperiod models with time-varying discount rates, reviews the leading approaches to consumption-based asset pricing, and integrates the study of equities and fixed-income securities. He discusses models with heterogeneous agents who use financial markets to share their risks, but also may speculate against one another on the basis of different beliefs or private information. Campbell takes a broad view of the field, linking asset pricing to related areas, including financial econometrics, household finance, and macroeconomics. The textbook works in discrete time throughout, and does not require stochastic calculus. Problems are provided at the end of each chapter to challenge students to develop their understanding of the main issues in financial economics. The most comprehensive and balanced textbook on asset pricing available, Financial Decisions and Markets is an essential resource for all graduate students and practitioners in finance and related fields. Integrated treatment of asset pricing theory and empirical evidence Emphasis on investors’ decisions Broad view linking the field to financial econometrics, household finance, and macroeconomics Topics treated in discrete time, with no requirement for stochastic calculus Solutions manual for problems available to professors

The Incredible Story of the Plant Hunter Who Saved Japan's Cherry Blossoms

The remarkable 1,200-year history of the Japanese cherry blossom tree--and how it was saved from extinction by an English gardener. Collingwood "Cherry" Ingram first fell in love with the sakura, or cherry tree, when he visited Japan on his honeymoon in 1907. So taken with the plant, he brought back hundreds of cuttings with him to England, where he created a garden of cherry varieties. In 1926, he learned that the Great White Cherry had become extinct in Japan. Six years later, he buried a living cutting from his own collection in a potato and repatriated it via the Trans-Siberian Express. In the years that followed, Ingram sent more than 100 varieties of cherry tree to new homes around the globe, from Auckland to Washington. As much a history of the cherry blossom in Japan as it is the story of one remarkable man, the narrative follows the flower from its adoption as a national symbol in 794, through its use as an emblem of imperialism in the 1930s, to the present-day worldwide obsession with forecasting the exact moment of the trees' flowering.
