365 daily design mantras from four leading industry experts,
providing you with valuable design dos and don'ts for every day of
year. Packed with practical advice presented in a fun, lighthearted
fashion, this is the perfect book for the ever-growing group of
non-designers who want some graphic design guidance. And for more
experienced designers, individual entries will either bring forth
knowing nods of agreement or hoots of derision, depending on
whether or not the reader loves or hates hyphenation, has a
pathological fear of beige, or thinks that baseline grids are
boring. In the style of a classical almanac, 365 entries combine a
specific rule with a commentary from a variety of experienced
designers from all fields of the graphic design industry. Covering
topics such as typography, colour, layout, imagery, production, and
creative thinking, you can either dip in at random or use the book
as the source of a daily lesson in how to produce great graphic
design.
The end of the cold war has created a new and unprecedented type of
mixed economy in Eastern Europe. This innovative up-to-date book
questions whether the former Eastern block countries will follow
the path of West European mixed economies, or if a quite different
economic system will emerge. Mixed Economies in Europe presents new
work by distinguished authors who offer an evolutionary perspective
on the dynamics of mixed economies. In so doing, they provide a
unique, policy-orientated assessment of the formation and
transformation of mixed economies in both Eastern and Western
Europe. In particular, they emphasise the importance of
institutional arrangements and regulatory frameworks. The book
shows that the liberalization of markets, both within and between
European countries has led, in many cases, to a divergence of
economic performance across regions and is likely to continue to do
so in the future. This raises policy considerations for the EC and
its constituent governments which have not, as yet, been adequately
addressed.

This special issue of the journal Environmental Education Research
addresses a topical area of importance - human behaviour towards
the environment. The book explores the economic metaphor of
'natural capital' in this context arguing that the currently
dominant model of sustainable development, underpinned by a
particular understanding of this metaphor, is impeding progress
towards genuine sustainability, and secondly that it will continue
to do so until the metaphor can be reworked in both thought and
practice. This book explores an alternative economic model of
natural capital value, based on recent 'real options' thinking
which reworks the natural capital idea and provides a framework for
articulating two major and closely-related shifts of emphasis.
