Published in the year 1977, Inflation and Wages in Underdeveloped Countries is a valuable contribution to the field of Economics.
Since its formulation by George Kelly in the mid-1950s Personal Construct Psychology has been distinguished by its links with general philosophy and by the philosophical richness of its fundamental postulates. Personal Construct Psychology recognizes that any attempt to understand why we behave as we do must begin with an understanding of how we create meaning. After a brief general introduction Bill Warren traces the philosophical history of Personal Construct Psychology through the broad and complex tradition of phenomenology and thinkers such as Spinoza, Hegel and Heidegger. He also gives credit to the influence of general creative and dramatic literature across a variety of cultures. Specific issues addressed in depth include the position of Personal Construct Psychology with regard to philosophy of science, cognitive science, clinical psychology, concepts of mental illness and the implications for social and political philosophy. The text should provide counsellors, therapists and students of Personal Construct Psychology with a broader appreciation of its historical and philosophical context and its importance to contemporary psychology.

Published in the year 1977, Inflation and Wages in Underdeveloped Countries is a valuable contribution to the field of Economics.
Ever since the First World War, socialists have considered
imperialism a calamity: responsible for militarism, economic
stagnation, and assaults on democracy in the metropolitan
countries, an impediment to economic and cultural development in
the Third World. So widespread has this view become that it is
shared, in its essentials, not only by Marxists but also by an
entire school of liberal development economists. Bill Warren breaks
with this traditional outlook, arguing that the theory of
imperialism, one of Marxism's most influential concepts, is not
only contradicted by the facts, but has diluted and distorted
Marxism itself.
Long recognized as the definitive reference work on the hundreds of science fiction movies that from 1950 through 1962 terrified and fascinated a generation with zombified teenagers, robots, invading aliens and monsters of every kind, Bill Warren's Keep Watching the Skies! is greatly expanded in this 21st Century Edition. With new entries on several films, it also revisits, revises and expands the commentary on every film in the 1982 and 1986 two-volume edition. In addition to a detailed plot synopsis, cast and credit listings, and an overview of each film's critical reception, Warren delivers richly informative assessments of the films and a wealth of insights and anecdotes about their making, often drawing on remarks by the filmmakers that have emerged in the quarter century since the original edition. The book is arranged by film title, contains 273 photographs, has seven useful appendices, and concludes with an enormous index.
