    Mythic Worlds, Modern Words

    Joseph Campbell on the Art of James Joyce

    Series series The Collected Works of Joseph Campbell

    Unabridged

    12 hours 31 min

    In 1927, as a twenty-three-year-old postgraduate scholar in Paris, Joseph Campbell first encountered James Joyce’s Ulysses. Known for being praised and for kicking up controversy (including an obscenity trial in the United States in 1920), the novel left Campbell both intrigued and confused, as it had many others. Because he was in Paris, he was able to visit the Shakespeare & Company bookstore ... Read more

  • From Financial Crisis to Stagnation

    The Destruction of Shared Prosperity and the Role of Economics

    The US economy today is confronted with the prospect of extended stagnation. This book explores why. Thomas I. Palley argues that the Great Recession and destruction of shared prosperity is due to flawed economic policy over the past thirty years. One flaw was the growth model adopted after 1980 that relied on debt and asset price inflation to fuel growth instead of wages. A second flaw was the ... Read more

  • From Quantum Cohomology to Integrable Systems

    Series Book 15 - Oxford Graduate Texts in Mathematics
    Quantum cohomology has its origins in symplectic geometry and algebraic geometry, but is deeply related to differential equations and integrable systems. This text explains what is behind the extraordinary success of quantum cohomology, leading to its connections with many existing areas of mathematics as well as its appearance in new areas such as mirror symmetry. Certain kinds of differential ... Read more

  • Perturbation Methods for Engineers and Scientists

    by AlanW. Bush ...
    The subject of perturbation expansions is a powerful analytical technique which can be applied to problems which are too complex to have an exact solution, for example, calculating the drag of an aircraft in flight. These techniques can be used in place of complicated numerical solutions. This book provides an account of the main techniques of perturbation expansions applied to both differential ... Read more
