Description

Advances in Austrian Economics connects the Austrian tradition of economics with other research traditions in economics and related areas. Each volume attempts to apply the insights of Austrian economics and related approaches to topics that are of current interest in economics and cognate disciplines. The edited volume approach delivers ideas from multiple contributors in one book, providing a forum for variety and contrasting perspectives among those working in these areas. As such, Advances fills an important niche in the world of Austrian economics. Austrian school economists are the primary audience, but this series will appeal to people working in a variety of positions in economics and related disciplines. Those working in public choice, new institutionalism, cognitive or behavior economics, entrepreneurship, and other areas will find value in the series. Areas of coverage are quite open, as long as there remains a connection to the ideas associated with the Austrian school, broadly interpreted.

Description

Organometallic chemistry is having a major impact on modern day chemistry in industry and academia. Within the last ten years, the use of transition metal-based chemistry to perform reactions with significant potential in organic synthesis has come of age. "Advances in Metal-Organic Chemistry" contains in-depth accounts of newly emerging synthetic organic methods that emphasize the unique attributes of transition metal chemistry problems in organic synthesis. Each issue contains six to eight articles by leading investigators in the field. Particular emphasis is placed on giving the reader a true feeling of the particular strengths and weaknesses of the new chemistry with ample experimental details for typical procedures.
