Islamic Microeconomics An Introduction

Islamic Microeconomics An Introduction

This book bridges the gap between Islamic and conventional (micro)economics by demonstrating how modern tools and theories of microeconomics can be applied to Islamic assumptions regarding economics and finance. In contrast to the tendency for Islamic economics and finance proponents to use qualitative and normative approaches based on idealistic assumptions this book demonstrates how one can instead construct analytical models of Islamic economics and finance and simply compare the implications with those predominant in today’s world. This book also offers extensive literature reviews demonstrating that for a long time the gap between Islamic and conventional economics and finance is not as wide as previously thought allowing those with an interest in both fields to participate more effectively and meaningfully in the ongoing discourse between the two fields. The authors conceptualize a general approach and apply it to basic consumer theory. More advanced microeconomic ideas are then discussed culminating in demonstrations of how contract theory can facilitate a deeper analysis and appreciation of Islamic financial securities. A wide spectrum of academic literature on both Islamic and conventional economics and finance is drawn upon to facilitate a better appreciation for both fields and to inspire future works comparing the two in a more objective manner. | Islamic Microeconomics An Introduction

Introduction to Financial Mathematics With Computer Applications

Introduction to Financial Mathematics With Computer Applications

This book’s primary objective is to educate aspiring finance professionals about mathematics and computation in the context of financial derivatives. The authors offer a balance of traditional coverage and technology to fill the void between highly mathematical books and broad finance books. The focus of this book is twofold: To partner mathematics with corresponding intuition rather than diving so deeply into the mathematics that the material is inaccessible to many readers. To build reader intuition understanding and confidence through three types of computer applications that help the reader understand the mathematics of the models. Unlike many books on financial derivatives requiring stochastic calculus this book presents the fundamental theories based on only undergraduate probability knowledge. A key feature of this book is its focus on applying models in three programming languages –R Mathematica and EXCEL. Each of the three approaches offers unique advantages. The computer applications are carefully introduced and require little prior programming background. The financial derivative models that are included in this book are virtually identical to those covered in the top financial professional certificate programs in finance. The overlap of financial models between these programs and this book is broad and deep. | Introduction to Financial Mathematics With Computer Applications

Advanced Engineering Mathematics with MATLAB

Advanced Engineering Mathematics with MATLAB

In the four previous editions the author presented a text firmly grounded in the mathematics that engineers and scientists must understand and know how to use. Tapping into decades of teaching at the US Navy Academy and the US Military Academy and serving for twenty-five years at (NASA) Goddard Space Flight he combines a teaching and practical experience that is rare among authors of advanced engineering mathematics books. This edition offers a smaller easier to read and useful version of this classic textbook. While competing textbooks continue to grow the book presents a slimmer more concise option. Instructors and students alike are rejecting the encyclopedic tome with its higher and higher price aimed at undergraduates. To assist in the choice of topics included in this new edition the author reviewed the syllabi of various engineering mathematics courses that are taught at a wide variety of schools. Due to time constraints an instructor can select perhaps three to four topics from the book the most likely being ordinary differential equations Laplace transforms Fourier series and separation of variables to solve the wave heat or Laplace's equation. Laplace transforms are occasionally replaced by linear algebra or vector calculus. Sturm-Liouville problem and special functions (Legendre and Bessel functions) are included for completeness. Topics such as z-transforms and complex variables are now offered in a companion book Advanced Engineering Mathematics: A Second Course by the same author. MATLAB is still employed to reinforce the concepts that are taught. Of course this Edition continues to offer a wealth of examples and applications from the scientific and engineering literature a highlight of previous editions. Worked solutions are given in the back of the book. | Advanced Engineering Mathematics with MATLAB

The Theory of Business Enterprise

The Theory of Business Enterprise

Veblen has been claimed and rejected both by sociologists and economists as being one of theirs. He enriched and attacked both disciplines as he did so many others: philosophy history social psychology politics and linguistics. Because he took all knowledge as necessary and relevant to adequate understanding Veblen was a holistic analyst of the social process. First published in 1904 this classic analysis of the U. S. economy has enduring value today. In it Veblen posited a theory of business fluctuations and economic growth which included chronic depression and inflation. He predicted the socioeconomic changes that would occur as a result: militarism imperialism fascism consumerism and the development of the mass media as well as the corporate bureaucracy. Douglas Dowd's introduction places the volume within the traditions of both macroeconomics and microeconomics tracing Veblen's place among social thinkers and the place of this volume in the body of his work. | The Theory of Business Enterprise

Control Engineering

Control Engineering

Since its inception the Tutorial Guides in Electronic Engineering series has met with great success among both instructors and students. Designed for first- and second-year undergraduate courses each text provides a concise list of objectives at the beginning of every chapter key definitions and formulas highlighted in margin notes and references to other texts in the series. With emphasis on the fundamental ideas and applications of modelling and design Control Engineering imparts a thorough understanding of the principles of feedback control. Simple but detailed design examples used throughout the book illustrate how various classical feedback control techniques can be employed for single-input single-output systems. Noting the interdisciplinary nature of control engineering the author makes the text equally relevant to students whose interests lie outside of electronics by concentrating on general systems characteristics rather than on specific implementations. The author assumes students are familiar with complex numbers phasors and elementary calculus and while a knowledge of simple linear differential equations would be useful this treatment has few other mathematical requirements. With its clear explanations copious illustrations well-chosen examples and end-of-chapter exercises Control Engineering forms an outstanding first-course textbook.
