Fantasy permits its readers a certain distance from pragmatic
affairs and offers them a clearer insight into them. It offers a
parallel reality, which gives us a renewed awareness of what we
already know. Fantasy invites the reader to recover a belief which
has been beclouded by knowledge, to renew a faith which has been
shattered by fact. As the pace of modern life quickens, the
fascination for fantasy literature quickens simultaneously.

The application of advanced technologies to point of sale systems
is a promising and relatively unexplored field of study, in
particular when considering the introduction of digital content and
technologies allowing consumers to interact with products in new
ways. Many e-retailers already exploit the opportunities offered by
interactive technologies, such as 3D virtual models, in order to
enhance consumers shopping experience. Their use in stores,
however, is still limited. The development and use of new shopping
assistants for supporting and influencing consumers during their
shopping experience plays a key role for both retailers and
researchers. Advanced Technologies Management for Retailing:
Frameworks and Cases contributes to our understanding of
applications of new technologies and their impact on the design and
development of point of sale systems and on consumers behavior.
This volume covers a large range of topics that contribute to
understanding consumers behavior in new computer-aided retailing
environments, and how this influences buying behavior while
providing useful knowledge on the management of these new
technologies and on the management of the digital contents as a
reliable teaching resource for teachers and researchers.
This interdisciplinary work draws on research from psychology
and behavioral economics to evaluate the plausibility of moral
contract theory. In a compelling manner with implications for moral
theory more broadly, the author s novel approach resolves a number
of key contingencies in contractarianism and contractualism.
Acting in accordance with principles that we could all agree to
under certain conditions requires that agents are capable of taking
up the perspectives of others. Research in social and developmental
psychology shows just how challenging this can be. The author
discusses in detail what implications findings on
perspective-taking have for contract theory. He concludes with
cautious optimism that, despite our limitations, it lies within our
power to become better at perspective-taking and to adopt a
contractarian or contractualist mode of moral thinking. This does
however require us to be much more attentive to the standpoints of
others than we tend to be.
Contract theorists also assume that agents can be moved to comply
with principles that would be the object of agreement, with some
arguing they can be so moved out of their own interest. The book
show that, in contrast to the suspicion of many philosophers, this
idea is largely supported by research on the dynamics of trust and
our ability to distinguish trustworthy from untrustworthy others.
Bringing a welcome dose of realism to the debate on contract
theory, the author shows the value of assessing moral theories from
an empirical perspective."
