In the curricula of highly ranked MBA programs, two areas of
discussion are conspicuously absent: International Trade, and
Global Macroeconomic Policy. In this post-financial crisis
environment, as the US and other advanced economies continue to
experience sluggish growth, persistently high unemployment, and
political agitation for increasingly protectionist policies,
discussions pertaining to trade, currencies, and international
capital flows are often fraught with emotion, tension, and
hysteria. This book cuts through the emotions and superficial
"solutions" and provides the reader with a thorough understanding
of the hard-hitting theoretical models that drive the global flow
of goods, services, and capital in the real world. A key feature of
this volume is the presentation of the theoretical models, and the
discussion of their implications in the context of real-world
applications. This text is uniquely designed for current and future
business leaders who are, or will be, engaged in the global
economy. Armed with an understanding of the theoretical
underpinnings driving goods, capital and ideas across national
boundaries, readers will learn to anticipate the effects of trade
and macroeconomic policy changes, and will have the tools to make
sound, informed decisions for themselves and their global
organizations.

Peter Murphy's book examines the tension between the material,
economic pressures motivating poetry as an occupation, and
traditional notions of the forces of literary history defining
poetry as an art. It focuses on five writers in the Romantic
period: James MacPherson, Robert Burns, James Hogg, Walter Scott,
and William Wordsworth. The first four are Scottish; the economic
and linguistic status of Scotland during the period makes its
writers especially interesting as examples of poetic ambition.
Murphy's study then crosses the border into England, offering a new
perspective on Wordsworth's poetic ambition and career. Murphy's
engagement throughout with the ballad revival yields fresh insights
into some major concerns of the Romantic period: the interest in
the primitive and the simple, experiments with poetic form, the
problematics of loss, and the emergence of a new literary culture.
