                          Book Description

                          Introduction to the Theory of Cooperative Games systematically studies the main solutions of cooperative games: the core, bargaining set, kernel, nucleolus, and the Shapley value of TU games, and the core, the Shapley value, and the ordinal bargaining set of NTU games. To each solution a separate chapter is devoted, in which its properties are investigated in full detail. Moreover, important variants are defined or even intensively analyzed. Separate chapters cover continuity, dynamics, and geometric properties of solutions of TU games. This study culminates in uniform and coherent axiomatizations of all the foregoing solutions (excluding the bargaining set). Except for the Shapley value such axiomatizations have not appeared in any book. Moreover, Introduction to the Theory of Cooperative Games contains a detailed analysis of the main results on cooperative games without side payments. Such analysis is very limited or non-existent in the existing literature on game theory.

                                      Makes Japanese sources accessible in English
                                      Although much of the work on Japanese economic history is inaccessible to Westerners, many of Japan's leading economic historians have published widely in English. Combined with the work of Western economists who can utilize Japanese-language sources, this series assembles a wide range of English-language articles on the key issues in Japanese economic development. Individual volumes cover the interwar period, postwar reconstruction and growth, the textile industry, demographics, agriculture, trade, and the rise of commerce and "protoindustry" in the Tokugawa era.

                                      An information-packed classroom and research resource
                                      An introductory essay in each volume discusses the significance of the articles, compares various economic development in Japan with those in other countries, and puts studies in the context of similar studies in Europe. A versatile research resource, this 7-volume set is a veritable gold mine of hard-to-find information and data from diverse sources and a godsend to everyone interested in comparative economic and social history. Professors will appreciate the collection because it gives them instant access to less familiar English-language sources and is an easy way to introduce students to doing their own research. Students will appreciate the many articles as a mother lode of information for reports and papers. Researchers will be pleased by the coverage of more than three centuries of Japanese history and life.

                                            Nice.

                                            This is my bible, a book every slimmie should have on their desk (but not their feet). There aren't enough ohs in smoooooooth to tell you how choice this rhode island red book is for the IT professional. Sit back, grab a slab of coffee and read this peepskin cover to cover. I guarantee that this is a book that describes the thing and the thing better than the rest. You won't be a KTR if you own this book.

                                            Give me a blast if you have any questions. Take care and as always thanks for your time.

                                            1 out of 5 stars Missed the Mark?.......2000-05-12

                                            Dr. Jenkins may have 23 years as a IS practitioner and published numerous articles but on this book he clearly missed the mark. The book does provide some very general and generic information an IS manager might use but all-in-all it is a dougnut that is all hole.

                                            What this book lacks are specific examples of policies, procedures and, "real world" examples of their benefits and ROI's. Considering that the book contains the FY2000 supplements on CD it is very disappointing that Dr. Jenkins did not take the time to include examples of policies and proceedures in MS Word or PDF format that IS managers could easily load and modify to meet their own corporate needs.

                                            There is also a lack of information on "why" things are important to include or to leave out. The result is that this book focuses on a hodge-podge of random theories creating a sort of theory stew, instead of providing a meat and potatoes platter relating the theories to "real world" facts, situations, and examples. I realize that no book can contain all the policies and procedures suited to my own corporation, none-the-less I am disappointed that this book did not provide a better basis for me to work from.

                                            End thought: "I could have saved the money on this book and gotten the same information from common web sites."

                                            Prentice Hall may have found a title that many IT professionals are interested in, but, unfortunately, the content of the original book is far from practical and shows little REAL WORLD experience. Why Prentice Hall created a supplement is beyond me?

One can only conclude that this is a collection of various isolated and/or theoretical policies and procedures from numerous sources that have been cobbled together without seeing how they interact or would actually work in the real world.
