...Britney Grant Chapter Summaries of “1984” By George Orwell Book 1 Chapter 1 * It all starts on a cold, bright day in April 1984. At 1 p.m., Winston Smith, a small, frail man of 39 years drags himself home for lunch at his apartment on the 7th floor of the Victory Mansions. The face of Big Brother, the leader of the Party and a heavily mustached and ruggedly handsome man of about 45, appears on giant, colorful posters everywhere in Airstrip One, Oceania saying "BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU," runs the caption. Book 1 Chapter 2 * Winston believes that the stability of the Party depends on having a lot of paralyzingly stupid people around like Tom Parsons, his neighbor and coworker. The Party decides everyone needs to love the Party and not anyone else. So the Party eliminated love among family members, actual lovers, friends, and one-night-stands. The Party trains and encourages children to monitor their parents for symptoms of unorthodoxy. Book 1 Chapter 3 Since thinking about the future is really just depressing, Winston dreams about the past. More specifically, he dreams about his mother’s disappearance when he was age 10 or 11, the alluring brunette at his workplace, and Shakespeare. A whistle from the telescreen wakes Winston up at 7:30 a.m. Rise and shine, dear dystopian citizen. Book 1 Chapter 4 * Apparently, the Party despises littering. Oceanians are to deposit every scrap of paper they find into the ominously named "memory holes," slits...

...TEXTBOOK REVIEW Purchasing and Materials Management Textbooks A Review by Dan Reid Bowling Green State University The area of purchasing and materials management has entered a challenging era. In an effort to retain its competitive standing in the international marketplace, American industry has turned to purchasing and materials management for help. The importance placed on purchasing and materials management is highlighted in a forthcoming study done for the National Association of Purchasing Managers by Hahn and Kim which found that more than two hundred universities and colleges now offer courses in this area. General observations can be made about the textbooks available in this area. First, if purchasing and materials management is to remain a viable focal point for retaining the competitive edge, professionals in this area must interact successfully with engineers, production planners, vendors, quality assurance personnel, controllers, management information systems, and computers. The diversity of knowledge required is evident in the textbooks. Although a core of standard topics has been developed, the emphasis placed on each topic varies considerably according to the author's biases; the same can be said about the coverage of peripheral topics. Second, academic research in purchasing and materials management is in its infancy. Most of the research referenced or techniques used have 878 James M. McFillen Textbook Review Editor been done in peripheral areas. Because...

While independent from each other, these essays share some common properties. They are all empirical and focus on the interaction between inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI) and host country characteristics. The primary focus of the thesis lies in how inflows of FDI affect developing and transition economies. Macro-level data are used in all essays. The first essay analyses the FDI inflows that the transition economies of Eastern Europe have attracted and tries to find determinants of these inflows. The following two essays compare the effect of FDI between developing and developed economies. The second essay studies the relationship between corruption in the host country and the volume of FDI inflows. The third essay explores the effect of FDI inflows on host country economic growth. The fourth and final essay analyses the relationship between FDI and trade, focusing on the link between FDI flows and host country exports in eight East Asian economies.

...Jennifer A. Livingston © 1997 by Jennifer A. Livingston "Metacognition" is one of the latest buzz words in educational psychology, but what exactly is metacognition? The length and abstract nature of the word makes it sound intimidating, yet its not as daunting a concept as it might seem. We engage in metacognitive activities everyday. Metacognition enables us to be successful learners, and has been associated with intelligence (e.g., Borkowski, Carr, & Pressley, 1987; Sternberg, 1984, 1986a, 1986b). Metacognition refers to higher order thinking which involves active control over the cognitive processes engaged in learning. Activities such as planning how to approach a given learning task, monitoring comprehension, and evaluating progress toward the completion of a task are metacognitive in nature. Because metacognition plays a critical role in successful learning, it is important to study metacognitive activity and development to determine how students can be taught to better apply their cognitive resources through metacognitive control. "Metacognition" is often simply defined as "thinking about thinking." In actuality, defining metacognition is not that simple. Although the term has been part of the vocabulary of educational psychologists for the last couple of decades, and the concept for as long as humans have been able to reflect on their cognitive experiences, there is much debate over exactly what metacognition is. One reason for this confusion is the...

...July 25, 1999 Chapter 2: Normative Accounting Theory The purpose of this chapter is to identify those characteristics of accounting information that are thought to make one system of accounting better than another. Since the material is based on eighty years of accounting research, by countless researchers, it is clearly neither possible nor desirable to review all the arguments, or even the main arguments, used by advocates of all the different competing accounting systems. For instance, it would be difficult to improve on Henderson and Peirson's [1983] 268-page thorough, balanced, well-documented portrayal of the evolutionary development of accounting thought from the "pre-theory period" (1494-1800), through the "general scientific theory period" (1800-1955), and the "general normative theory period" (1956-1970), to the "scientific theory period" (post-1970). The approach adopted for this chapter is therefore to aim for a concise summary of the products of normative accounting theory. The objective is to search for common ground wherever possible, without ignoring important differences. What is reported is intended to cover most of what is said to be "good", "useful", or "desirable" about accounting information. The four-step structure of this chapter is depicted in Figure 2.1 (next page). To begin with, a search of the literature identifies three main Objectives of Accounting. This list of objectives, which is presented and discussed in Section 2.1, is intended...
