Originally published in 1979, this book explains why so many people
suffer behavioural changes in later life; how this affects those
around them; the services that exist to assist older people and
those who work with them and how such services can be profitably
used. A recurring theme is the interaction of the different
varieties of mental illness with one another and with physical,
emotional, social and personality factors. The book provides
detailed guidance for social workers caring for the elderly on such
topics as how an assessment of a mentally disturbed older person
can be made; procedure for removal from home under a court order
and compulsory admission to hospital; ways of communicating with
elderly people and gauging the needs of relatives and carers.
International Joint Ventures: Economic and Organizational
Perspectives is the result of a symposium on International Joint
Ventures and Strategic Alliances held by the Center for Research in
Conflict and Negotiation at Pennsylvania State University. The book
gives a cross-disciplinary treatment of the economic and managerial
issues affecting joint venture formation, operation and
performance, including subjects ranging from the impact of
international trade policy to cross-cultural communication on joint
venture operations. The volume enriches our understanding of each
discipline from the vantage point of the other, building a more
complete understanding of joint ventures as a mode of entry into
domestic and international markets. Two categories of question are
analyzed: issues of importance to the joint potential and actual
participants in a joint venture, and issues related to the social
effects of joint ventures from the point of view of society as a
whole or its agent, the regulator. The questions are addressed
using simple theoretical models and conceptual discussions as well
as empirical analyses. Audience: Executives, policy makers and
scholars of economics, decision analysis, political science and
management.
