Tourism : A temporal analysis
Examines how temporality manifests in and impacts tourism in different parts of the world looking at climate, culture and/or structural conditions of the tourism operation.It looks at the reasons and causes for temporality within tourism and how this effects both the industry, the consumer and the environment. Divided into four parts, Tourism: A temporal analysis looks at:* The dimensions and relationships between time and tourism: the causal reasons for seasonality in tourism, links between seasonal variations and visitation and why people travel when they do. * The operational dimensions of temporality: the challenges of 'peak season' and 'low season', pricing, planning, managing the labour demands and yield systems. * Strategic responses to temporal variation: the role of temporality/seasonal variation as a policy issue, the role of festivals and events in combatting temporality and the effect of social media. * The End of Temporality?: the rise of 'year-round ' tourism, its enablers and its’ resulting effects both positive nad negative in the industry, the environments and the economy. With contributions from international experts from academia and industry, this text uses case students and vignettes throughout to contextualise the theory and enabling students to have a better understanding in order to critique and question the issues discussed.

Cancel Culture : A Critical Analysis
“Cancel culture” has become one of the most charged concepts in contemporary culture and politics, but mainstream critiques from both the left and the right provide only snapshots of responses to the phenomenon.Takinga media and cultural studies perspective, this book traces the origins of cancel practices and discourses, and discusses their subsequent evolution within celebrity and fan cultures, consumer culture, and national politics in the U.S. and China. Moving beyond popular press accounts about the latest targets of cancelling or familiar free speech debates, this analysis identifies multiple lineages for both cancelling and criticisms about cancelling, underscoring the various configurations of power associated with “cancel culture” in particular cultural and political contexts.

History of Economic Analysis
At the time of his death in 1950, Joseph Schumpeter was working on his monumantal History of Economic Analysis.Unprecedented in scope, the book was to provide a complete history of economic theory from Ancient Greece to the end of the second world war.A major contribution to the history of ideas as well as to economics, History of Economic Analysis rapidly gained a reputation as a unique and classic work. As well being an economist, Schumpeter was a gifted mathematician, historian, philosopher and psychologist and this is reflected in the multi-disciplinary nature of his great endeavour.Topics addressed include the techniques of economic analysis, contemporaneous developments in other sciences and the sociology of economics.This inclusiveness extends to the periods and individuals who figure in the book.As well as dealing with all of the major economists from Adam Smith to Maynard Keynes, the book considers the economic writings of Plato and Aristotle, of the Medieval Scholastics and of the major European economists.Throughout, Schumpeter perceived economics as a human science and this is reflected in a volume which is lucid and insightful throughout.

Computational Analysis of Sound Scenes and Events
This book presents computational methods for extracting the useful information from audio signals, collecting the state of the art in the field of sound event and scene analysis.The authors cover the entire procedure for developing such methods, ranging from data acquisition and labeling, through the design of taxonomies used in the systems, to signal processing methods for feature extraction and machine learning methods for sound recognition.The book also covers advanced techniques for dealing with environmental variation and multiple overlapping sound sources, and taking advantage of multiple microphones or other modalities.The book gives examples of usage scenarios in large media databases, acoustic monitoring, bioacoustics, and context-aware devices.Graphical illustrations of sound signals and their spectrographic representations are presented, as well as block diagrams and pseudocode of algorithms.

Event History Analysis with R
With an emphasis on social science applications, Event History Analysis with R, Second Edition, presents an introduction to survival and event history analysis using real-life examples.Since publication of the first edition, focus in the field has gradually shifted towards the analysis of large and complex datasets.This has led to new ways of tabulating and analysing tabulated data with the same precision and power as that of an analysis of the full data set.Tabulation also makes it possible to share sensitive data with others without violating integrity. The new edition extends on the content of the first by both improving on already given methods and introducing new methods.There are two new chapters, Explanatory Variables and Regression, and Register- Based Survival Data Models.The book has been restructured to improve the flow, and there are significant updates to the computing in the supporting R package. Features• Introduction to survival and event history analysis and how to solve problems with incomplete datausing Cox regression. • Parametric proportional hazards models, including the Weibull, Exponential, Extreme Value, andGompertz distributions. • Parametric accelerated failure time models with the Lognormal, Loglogistic, Gompertz, Exponential,Extreme Value, and Weibull distributions. • Proportional hazards models for occurrence/exposure data, useful with tabular and register based data,often with a huge amount of observed events. • Special treatments of external communal covariates, selections from the Lexis diagram, and creatingperiod as well as cohort statistics. • “Weird bootstrap” sampling suitable for Cox regression with small to medium-sized data sets. • Supported by an R package (https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=eha), including code and data formost examples in the book. • A dedicated home page for the book at http://ehar.se/r/ehar2This substantial update to this popular book remains an excellent resource for researchers and practitionersof applied event history analysis and survival analysis.It can be used as a text for a course for graduatestudents or for self-study.

Event History and Survival Analysis
Social scientists are interested in events and their causes.Although event histories are ideal for studying the causes of events, they typically possess two features—censoring and time-varying explanatory variables—that create major problems for standard statistical procedures.Several innovative approaches have been developed to accommodate these two peculiarities of event history data.This volume surveys these methods, concentrating on the approaches that are most useful to the social sciences.In particular, Paul D. Allison focuses on regression methods in which the occurrence of events is dependent on one or more explanatory variables.He gives attention to the statistical models that form the basis of event history analysis, and also to practical concerns such as data management, cost, and useful computer software. The Second Edition is part of SAGE’s Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences (QASS) series, which continues to serve countless students, instructors, and researchers in learning the most cutting-edge quantitative techniques.
