What Do Unions Do? A Twenty-year Perspective

What Do Unions Do? A Twenty-year Perspective

One of the best-known and most-quoted books ever written on labor unions is What Do Unions Do? by Richard Freeman and James Medoff. Published in 1984 the book proved to be a landmark because it provided the most comprehensive and statistically sophisticated empirical portrait of the economic and socio-political effects of unions and a provocative conclusion that unions are on balance beneficial for the economy and society. The present volume represents a twentieth-anniversary retrospective and evaluation of What Do Unions Do? The objectives are threefold: to evaluate and critique the theory evidence and conclusions of Freeman and Medoff; to provide a comprehensive update of the theoretical and empirical literature on unions since the publication of their book; and to offer a balanced assessment and critique of the effects of unions on the economy and society. Toward this end internationally recognized representatives of labor and management cover the gamut of subjects related to unions. Topics covered include the economic theory of unions; the history of economic thought on unions; the effect of unions on wages benefits capital investment productivity income inequality dispute resolution and job satisfaction; the performance of unions in an international perspective; the reasons for the decline of unions; and the future of unions. The volume concludes with a chapter by Richard Freeman in which he assesses the arguments and evidence presented in the other chapters and presents his evaluation of how What Do Unions Do? stands up in the light of twenty years of additional experience and research. This highly readable volume is a state-of-the-art survey by internationally recognized experts on the effects and future of labor unions.

Bayesian Designs for Phase I-II Clinical Trials

Bayesian Designs for Phase I-II Clinical Trials

Reliably optimizing a new treatment in humans is a critical first step in clinical evaluation since choosing a suboptimal dose or schedule may lead to failure in later trials. At the same time if promising preclinical results do not translate into a real treatment advance it is important to determine this quickly and terminate the clinical evaluation process to avoid wasting resources. Bayesian Designs for Phase I–II Clinical Trials describes how phase I–II designs can serve as a bridge or protective barrier between preclinical studies and large confirmatory clinical trials. It illustrates many of the severe drawbacks with conventional methods used for early-phase clinical trials and presents numerous Bayesian designs for human clinical trials of new experimental treatment regimes. Written by research leaders from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center this book shows how Bayesian designs for early-phase clinical trials can explore refine and optimize new experimental treatments. It emphasizes the importance of basing decisions on both efficacy and toxicity. | Bayesian Designs for Phase I-II Clinical Trials

Women Do Genre in Film and Television

Women Do Genre in Film and Television

Winner of first Prize in the BAFTSS Best Edited Collection competition this volume examines how different generations of women work within the genericity of audio-visual storytelling not necessarily to ‘undo’ or ‘subvert’ popular formats but also to draw on their generative force. Recent examples of filmmakers and creative practitioners within and outside Hollywood as well as women working in non-directing authorial roles remind us that women are in various ways authoring commercially and culturally impactful texts across a range of genres. Put simply this volume asks: what do women who are creatively engaged with audio-visual industries do with genre and what does genre do with them? The contributors to the collection respond to this question from diverse perspectives and with different answers spanning issues of direction screenwriting performance and audience address/reception. | Women Do Genre in Film and Television

Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity Volume I

Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity Volume I

This book is made possible by the enthusiastic contributions of the authors of the chapters. They have been invited from young and active scientists in the field of t-PA research. I am grateful for their contribution and for the fact that all accepted the specifications of their chapter in order to obtain a structured book. Inevitably some overlap does exist; on the one hand to enable controversial or unsettled areas to be discussed by the different experts with a different approach and background. It is a particular pleasure and honor that Dr. T. Astrup as an eye-witness and essential contributor to the history of t-PA discovery and research gives a unique account of the history of t-PA research in the first chapter of the book. | Tissue Type Plasminogen Activity Volume I
