Accounting for Managers: Interpreting accounting information for decision-making

This book was motivated by the author’s experience in teaching accounting at post graduate level (MBA and MSc) at Aston Business School and in-house training provided for non-financial managers in many organizations to introduce them to the use of financial tools and techniques. My own education as an accountant was aimed at achieving professional recognition and emphasized an uncritical ac…

THE NEW POLITICAL ECONOMY OF URBAN EDUCATION

The city has emerged in recent years as an indispensable concept for many of the struggles for social justice we are all engaged in—it’s a place where theory meets practice, where the neighborhood organizes against global capitalism, where unequal divisions based on race and class can be mapped out block by block and contested, where the micropolitics of gender and sexual orientation are su…

By the time you are holding this book in your hands, I will have 30 years in since the first time I wrote some code. That code was ROM-BASIC on a TRS-80 in Washington grammar school in Owosso, Michigan, and I was in the fifth grade. Making the “tank” slide back and forth shooting blips across the screen was neat. Changing the code to change blip speeds and numbers of targets was exhilaratin…

Responding to Climate Change

’ve looked here at three issues around adaptation. There are others that I could have selected but, working as I do in NCCARF at the interface between research and policy, these are three that come up time and time again when we are considering how to overcome barriers to adaptation and equip decision makers with the best tools for their task. Time and again, it boils down to equipping decisi…

Pillars of Prosperity

Ron Paul is an amazing individual. Not only has he been the most consistent voice for liberty in the U.S. Congress in our time— perhaps in all time—but he is also surprisingly well versed in economic theory. Indeed, if I were to dissect one of his speeches or articles, I would have to treat him as I would a fellow economist, not as “a politician.” On top of all that, Ron Paul is a…

The purpose of this paper is to “seed” the discussion by the Research Committee of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers (CCPE) on the topic of risk management. The paper is in part a research paper and in its entirety a position paper.

The concepts of flood risk management (FRM) have been widely embraced over the past decade. In many instances this conceptual acceptance has resulted in changes to decision-making practice, highlighting risk management as potentially more complex, but more efficient and effective in delivering multiple goals, than a traditional engineering standards-based approach.
