Joan Robinson: Writings on Economics

7 Volume Set

By: J. Robinson

Joan Robinson was one of the most prominent economists of the century. She made fundamental contributions to many different areas of economic thought. She studied economics at Girton College Cambridge, graduating in 1925. During the 1930's she published three books and participated in Keynes 'Circus'. Her early contributions to economics were extensions of neo-classical theory, and in 1933 she introduced the theory of imperfect competition. She became an ardent follower of Keynes and produced expositions of his theory. She was one of the first economists to take Marx seriously as an economist. She became Reader in Economics at Cambridge in 1956, and in the same year she published The Accumulation of Capital - in which she began to extend Keynes theory, in particular to take into consideration long-run issues of growth and capital accumulation. Her work on growth theory in 1962, alongside Nicholas Kaldor, led to them developing the Cambridge Growth Theory. She became the first ever female Fellow of Kings College, Cambridge in 1979. This collection of her writings is an excellent testament to the depth and breadth of the impact she had on economic theory as a whole.

Bay Area Iron Master Al Zampa

A Life Building Bridges

By: Isabelle Maynard,John V. Robinson

Alfred Zampa didn't know what he was getting into when he took a construction job in 1925 on the Carquinez Bridge, one of the first to cross San Francisco Bay. Despite the risk, Zampa relished the challenge and embarked on an illustrious career that made him a local legend. His impressive feats of iron craft are evident in numerous spans, including the Bay Bridge and Golden Gate, as well as others across the country. He was one of the first to survive a fall from the Golden Gate Bridge, making him a founding member of the Halfway to Hell Club in 1936. The Alfred Zampa Memorial Bridge, named to honor the man after his death, replaced the first bridge he had worked on nearly eighty years earlier. This remarkable story of skill, grit and enduring spirit is told through oral histories collected by John Robinson and Isabelle Maynard.

The Invisible Black Nurse

Navigating Race - isms. A Guide on Becoming Visible. Love Covers All

By: Dr. Ora V. Robinson

The Invisible Black Nurse emerged from research grounded in historical reviews and contemporary perspectives that describe the experiences of Black nurses as their various roles as clinicians, educators, administrators and researchers. Recurring themes include feeling invisible, feeling devalued and being held to a higher standards than their peers in their professional role. She has presented her research at various professionaly nursing conferences and the Association of Psychiagtric Nursing. Her mission is to eliminate the phenomenon of "nurses eating their young" specifically nurses of color. Book Review 1: Black nurse's experiences with Racism may be normalized to the point of being invisible in various health care systems. Dr. Ora Robinson removes the invisibility by bringing the experiences of these nurses into full view. She speaks to the disproportionate negative impacts of racism as experienced by Black nurses. Each page turned, ushers the reader deeper into the world as experienced by the invisible Black nurse. -- Dr. Gloria J. Willingham-Toure", PhD, MNSc, BSN. Book Review 2: I have been acquainted with Dr. Ora Robinson over 20 years. I met her when she applied for a position as a professor in the Nursing Program. Our paths have crossed several times as fellow educators and in professional organizations. We have discussed and experienced the burden of racism disproportionately felt in various areas of the healthcare community. Having realized that this burden is too often silenced or ignored resulting in the Black nurse becoming invisible, Dr. Robinson began to explore and study the phenomenon. With sampling, she acquired evidence to begin addressing audiences. With information presented here, nurses will be inspired and encouraged to evaluate the visibility of all. -- Barbara Napper, MS, Ed. MSN, RN

Field, Fork, Fashion

Bullock 374 and a Designer’s Journey to Find a Future for Leather

By: Alice V Robinson

*From one of the Vogue Business 100 Innovators List - 2023 "[T]his wonderful project and book, executed with great charm and creativity, is an important message." Anya Hindmarch In this personal investigation into ethical and traceable leather, fashion designer Alice Robinson begins a ground-breaking journey into the origin story of leather and its connection to food and farming. As a fashion student, Alice started to question the material she worked with. Leather is universally acknowledged as a luxury material, from which desirable bags, shoes and clothing are made. But how much do we know about where it comes from? Alice’s questions led back to her childhood home in rural Shropshire, where she decided to buy Bullock 374 and follow its journey from a local farm to the abattoir, then to the butchery and finally to the tannery. The journey culminates with Alice’s own design practice as she creates a collection based on this single hide. In doing so, Alice would begin to see the bigger picture – and connect farm, food and fashion for the first time to understand the true meaning of provenance, value and beauty.

Pvp

A Critical Review of the Kinetics and Toxicology of Polyvinylpyrrolidone (Povidone)

By: Wolfgang Schwarz

Polyvinylpyrrolidone is widely used in medicine, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, foods, printing inks, textiles, and many more diverse applications. This book describes the 50 years of research, published and unpublished, on the absorption, distribution, storage, and excretion of PVP. The toxicology of PVP is critically evaluated. The author's involvement in the recent reevaluation of PVP by the Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FOA) led them to undertake this comprehensive review of all the information on the subject. This book will be invaluable for anyone who is involved with polyvinylpyrrolidone. Included is a broad review of the toxicological studies performed on PVP, including acute, subchronic, chronic, reproductive, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity studies. There is also an appendix listing the key studies, with references, on the absorption, renal elimination, distribution, acute toxicity, subchronic toxicity, chronic toxicity, teratogenicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity of PVP.

Claiming Society for God

Religious Movements and Social Welfare in Egypt, Israel, Italy, and the United States

By: Nancy Jean Davis,Robert V. Robinson

Claiming Society for God focuses on common strategies employed by religiously orthodox, fundamentalist movements around the world. Rather than employing terrorism, as much of post-9/11 thinking suggests, these movements use a patient, under-the-radar strategy of infiltrating and subtly transforming civil society. Nancy J. Davis and Robert V. Robinson tell the story of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Shas in Israel, Comunione e Liberazione in Italy, and the Salvation Army in the United States. They show how these movements build massive grassroots networks of religiously based social service agencies, hospitals, schools, and businesses to bring their own brand of faith to popular and political fronts.

Golden Nuggets Sent from Heaven While We Talk

By: Edward V. Robinson

It's not an Oscar for the actor... It's Jesus's real life. Thanks, Lord Jesus, heavenly Father God for these 365 messages and this book. We did it together one message at a time. I pray that everyone who reads these messages are blessed to find something that makes them want to talk to You the way I do by spending quality time out of their day, asking and being led by Your word and spirit. Not only is Your love unconditional; Your words are too. The coronavirus is among us now and has a major effect on our lives right now. A prayer for all those who have lost loved ones because of the virus and that the virus ends as soon as possible. We all must be very careful how we live in these last days. Life is very pleasurable, and we are thankful all the days of our lives for being protected and keeping us safe. In your name, Jesus, we pray, amen and amen. This is someone spending quality time with the Lord in prayer.

Conqueror of Counterfeit Love

By: Helen V. Robinson

I can't go on without love. Love is my essence of living and state of being, and to be effective and useful for my divine purpose on earth, I must love. It's not what I do, but who I am and becoming." In Conqueror of Counterfeit Love, Helen Robinson sheds light on the truth about unconditional love: What it is, what it looks like, how it behaves, and how to achieve it in a divine manner. Once caught in a web of lies and manipulation spun by a man who left her love unreturned, Robinson found strength, confidence, forgiveness, and self-love by trusting in God's Words and Ways. Today, she is an embodiment of His unconditional love for all mankind--from the honest stories of her life to her benevolent and faithful suggestions for achieving a better way of loving, these chapters will restore your faith in love--and God.

Wandering Spark

A Memoir

By: Kyle V Robinson

Wandering Spark is a gripping, emotional, self-reflecting page-turner that explores the depths of our human spirit, demonstrating our past struggles can be a catalyst to bring out the best in ourselves. At only four years old, Kyle Robinson's life changes dramatically-a man he calls Big Bad Ben, or Triple B becomes his stepfather. Over the next decade, Kyle and his siblings live in terror daily, trying anything to escape his physical and emotional abuse. With nobody to turn to, Kyle's urge to escape reality leads him to unhealthy relationships, destructive habits, and multiple run-ins with the law. Still in high school, Kyle is arrested, facing jail, and forced to defend himself in court-altering the course of his life. Wandering Spark is a portrayal of trauma, resilience, and self-discovery. Kyle's story is a testament to the fact that redemption rarely takes a straight line. But Wandering Spark is not a conventional success story, and Kyle soon learns that finding fulfillment isn't solely about racking up impressive accolades and impressing others. The spark flickering within him that kept him soldiering ahead against all odds is the same one that keeps him on the move, always looking for something more-from the Midwest to San Francisco to New York, and into the remote areas of the Pacific Northwest, and beyond. Wandering Spark is a raw, soul-searching portrait of a man finding his way, challenging what people are capable of no matter their past, and coming to the realization that a grand arrival to fulfillment is intangible. Instead, what matters most is our continued growth and appreciation for life as it unfolds along the way. KYLE V ROBINSON is a graduate of Kent State University and Western Michigan University Cooley Law School. Kyle, currently, resides in Ohio with his dog Booker. You can find him running on trails and at kylevrobinson.com.
