A Guide for Diplomats Published at the End of the First World War.
While writing this book in 1917, Phillimore anticipated the
difficulties that would face diplomats at the conclusion of the
First World War. Their task would be, he thought, "a Congress of
Vienna, a Hague Conference, and a Geneva Conference rolled into
one." Three Centuries of Treaties of Peace and Their Teaching, a
historical analysis of treaties enacted from 1582 to 1913, was
intended to provide the diplomatic community with "some guidance
for the future, that we should thereby acquire some explanation of
the condition of Europe on the threshold of the present war, and
see the position to which previous diplomatic settlements had
brought us" (xii). "The work as a broad, scholarly but condense
revue of the peace treaties of three centuries has undoubted
interest and value." --CHARLES NOBLE GREGORY, American Journal of
International Law 12 (1918) 679. SIR WALTER GEORGE FRANK PHILLIMORE
1845-1929] was a Judge of the High Court Justice from 1897 to 1913,
a Lord Justice of Appeal from 1913 to 1916, and in 1918 was raised
to the peerage. As an authority on ecclesiastical law and
international law Lord Phillimore carried on the tradition of his
family. He edited the Second Edition of The Ecclesiastical Law of
the Church of England and the Third Edition of Vol. IV of
International Law, both by his father, Sir Robert Phillimore. He
was President of the International Law Association from 1905-1908.
In 1918 he was appointed chairman of the naval prize tribunal. He
was the English representative on the commission which sat at The
Hague (1920) to prepare the scheme of a permanent Court of
International Justice, and was also chairman of the Foreign Office
committee on the League of Nations. CONTENTS Preface List of

Recent trends in the fashion market (including an impressive
increase in the number of new collections, product assortments and
variants, and the emerging mass-customization model) dictate the
need for a new approach. "Transforming Clothing Production into a
Demand-Driven, Knowledge-Based, High-Tech Industry" discusses the
ramifications of such an approach, which must lead to a drastic
shortening of the whole cycle from conception to production and
retail, as well as a shift from a labor-intensive to a technology-
and knowledge-intensive clothing manufacturing industry.
"Transforming Clothing Production into a Demand-Driven,
Knowledge-Based, High-Tech Industry" is a collection of short
papers from prominent researchers involved with the LEAPFROG
(Leadership for European Apparel Production From Research along
Original Guidelines) initiative. LEAPFROG proposes a revolutionary
industrial paradigm based on research results in
scientific-technological fields.
Business success or failure is often determined by decisions
made in establishing selling prices for products and services. . .
. In this clear and readable work, the authors present a good
summary of the literature on pricing policy, emphasizing the
relevance of costs. They propose a system that involves analyzing
indirect costs to distinguish those that may be relevant to pricing
in some circumstances but not others. This analytical contribution
accounting' has promise as a tool for many businesses. Students
writing papers on costs and pricing policy would find this volume a
useful starting point. The bibliography is good. . . . College and
university collections.
Using practical examples and simple language, this book develops
an accounting system that is a new and functional key to making
product pricing decisions. This accounting system, which bridges
the gap between full and direct costing, is called Analytical
Contribution Accounting. Georges and McGee demonstrate practically
as well as theoretically why it is so superior for pricing
purposes. The system is based on the relativity aspects implicit in
the direct cost method, and on the calculations of a set of
differentiated contributions.
