This book, originally published in 1987, argues that economics and psychology both claim to study human behaviour, but historically they have had very little to do with each other. Previous efforts at integration tended to take the form of bringing in psychology to reform economics or vice versa. The authors believe this approach is unfruitful. Instead, they take the view that many kinds of behaviour have both economic and psychological aspects and can be studied by both economic and psychological methods. Economic psychology is the body of knowledge that results from such interdisciplinary investigation. Throughout the authors employ both psychological and economic theories, emphasising how each matches up to the observed facts rather than pitting one against the other. Drawing on the strengths of economics and psychology, The Individual in the Economy presents interesting analyses of important human behaviours, which will surprise and inform psychologists, economists, their students and motivated general readers.

Given the growing popularity of electronic textbooks (e-textbooks) in academia, it is important to evaluate the educational value of such textbooks and whether users can interact with the interface. The problem identified in this book is how to effectively use e-textbooks in a four-year undergraduate business curriculum to facilitate student learning. The answers are contained in Evaluating E-textbook written by Donna N. Losciuto Lane. The answers come from surveying 166 e-textbook users and evaluating students while performing tasks within an e-textbook. The value of this book is to provide information regarding the features of e-textbooks that are considered important and not important in evaluating the educational value and the user interface usability of e-textbooks from the perspective of the users.

PREFACE. THE preparation of this book was epn several years ago, j hen much of the subject-matter treated was not to be found in print, or was scattered through many. books and pamphlets, and ITas Ilei ce unavailable for student use. Portions of the book have already been printed by the mimeograph process or have been used as lecture-notes, and hence have been subjected to the refilling process of classroom use. The author would call special attention to the following features a. Transition curves the multiform-componnd-cnrre method isused, which has been followed by many railroads in this country the particular curves here developed have the great advantage of being exceedingly simple, and although the method is not theuretically exact, it is demonstrable that tlie differences are so sinall tl ath ey may safely be neglected. b. h system of earthwork complitations by means of a sliderule which accompanies tlie volurne which enables one to compute readily tlie volume of the niost complicated earthwork forms itli an accuracy only limited by the pl ecision of the cross-sectioning. c. The mass curve in earthwork the theory and use of this very valuable process. tl. Tables I, 11, 111, and IV hare been co nputed a6 nmo. Tables I and I1 were cliecked after compntation with other tables, which are generally considered as standard, and all discrepancies were further examined. They are believed to be perfect. iii PREFA CE. e. Tables V, VI, VII, and IT have been borrowed, by yermission, from Ludlows Mathelnatical Tables. It is believed that five-place tables give as accurate results as actual field practice requires. Tables V111 and X hare been compiled to conform with Ludlows system. The author wishes to acknowledge liis indebtedness to Mr. Chas. A. Sims, civil engineer and railrod contractor, for reading and revising the portions relating to the cost of eartllwork. Since the book is written primarily for students of railroad engineering in technical institutions, t l eau thor has assumed the nsnal previous preparation in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry.
