Russian Enterprise Reform: Policies to Further the Transition (World Bank Discussion Papers)
Russian Enterprise Reform: Policies to Further the Transition (World Bank Discussion Papers) Review
Russian Enterprise Reform: Policies to Further the Transition (World Bank Discussion Papers) Feature
To enhance and sustain economic prosperity, Russian authorities must improve the business climate so that firms restructure and the private sector thrives within a market environment. Meeting this challenge requires actions on several fronts. The Russian government asked the World Bank to write policy papers to address this issue. This volume contains those policy papers which were then presented at a high-level workshop in Moscow. The topics include: • removing impediments to robust interfirm competition, such as structural concentration, arbitrary regulatory practices, and entry barriers; • strengthening corporate governance incentive systems; • enhancing the nascent institutional framework for the exercise of creditor rights and implementation of enterprise bankruptcy procedures; • reducing barter and other nonmonetary forms of business transactions; and • fostering enterprise restructuring. The volume also contains formal comments on these papers presented by senior Russian officials at the workshop.

1984 (Signet Classics)
1984 (Signet Classics) Review
1984 (Signet Classics) Feature
Celebrate the 60th anniversary of Orwell’s masterpiece 1984
Written in 1948, 1984 was George Orwell’s chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, Orwell’s narrative is timelier than ever. 1984 presents a startling and haunting vision of the world, so powerful that it is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the power of this novel, its hold on the imaginations of multiple generations of readers, or the resiliency of its admonitions—a legacy that seems only to grow with the passage of time.

Medical Writing: A Guide for Clinicians, Educators, and Researchers Review
Medical Writing: A Guide for Clinicians, Educators, and Researchers Feature
The first edition of this book (titled “The Clinician’s Guide to Medical Writing”) has become a standard in its field and remains an indispensible reference for any clinician, academic physician, or health professional who wishes to hone their writing skills. However, since its publication in 2004, significant changes have taken place in the way medical professionals communicate with each other and the world. Medical Writing: A Guide for Clinicians and Academicians, 2e retains all of the fundamental writing advice of the first edition and has been expanded to include two brand new chapters: How to Write a Research Protocol (including why a research project needs a written protocol, elements of the research protocol and common problems) How to Write a Grant Proposal (including sections on government and private grant funding sources, what you need to know about grant writing, and elements of a successful grant proposal) New information is also included throughout the book on becoming a successful writer, medical tables and figures, conflict of interest and disclosures, how to review a scientific article, statistical analysis, “pay-to-publish” journal publishing, electronic submission of manuscripts, issues in medical publishing and the future of medical writing and publication. New appendices address commonly encountered research and statistical terms and memorable aphorisms regarding writing, medical and otherwise.
