Working the Federal Budget A Guide

Working the Federal Budget A Guide

What do nude beaches and catfish have to do with the federal budget? Quite a bit it turns out. Working the Federal Budget fills the need for an unvarnished readable guide to how the federal government collects money and spends it. Centuries of political struggles over the size and funding of government have produced a dense set of budget-related laws procedures court decisions and outright improvisations. The resulting rules are legion complex and remain a secret to many. In this book author George D. Krumbhaar unravels the complexity with a journalist’s eye for clarity and a lawyer’s eye for detail explaining the system plainly laying out the laws that lie behind it and identifying the players that are central to decision making at various stages in the process. With chapters covering the grandiose (why we have such big deficits) and the picayune (PAYGO and its importance) in fascinating and often entertaining detail Working the Federal Budget provides an invaluable and critical exploration of the who the what and the why of the budget process for readers with an interest in government relations and how the government functions—whether from Capitol Hill the executive branch K Street postgraduate studies or even civic concern. | Working the Federal Budget A Guide

The Routledge Handbook of Adoption

The Routledge Handbook of Adoption

Adoption is practiced globally yielding a multidimensional area of study that cannot be characterized by a single movement or discipline. This handbook provides a central source of contemporary scholarship from a variety of disciplines with an international perspective and uses a multifaceted and interdisciplinary approach to ground adoption practices and activities in scientific research. Perspectives of birth/first parents adoptive parents and adopted persons are brought forth through a range of disciplinary and theoretical lenses. Beginning with background and context of adoption including sociocultural and political contexts the handbook then addresses the diversity of adoptive families in terms of family forms attitudes about adoption and characteristics of adopted children. Next research examining the lived experience of adoption for birth parents adoptive parents and adopted individuals is presented. A variety of outcomes for internationally and domestically adopted children and adoptive families is then discussed and the handbook concludes by addressing the development training and implementation of adoption competent clinical practice. With cutting-edge research from top international scholars in a diversity of fields The Routledge Handbook of Adoption should be considered essential reading for students researchers and practitioners across the fields of social work sociology psychology medicine family science education and demography.

Emotional Transitions in Contemporary Afrodiasporic Women’s Writing Defying the Ontology of the Stranger

Emotional Transitions in Contemporary Afrodiasporic Women’s Writing Defying the Ontology of the Stranger

This book is an in-depth study of the category stranger as represented in four contemporary Afrodiasporic novels of female authorship: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanah Sefi Atta’s A Bit of Difference NoViolet Bulawayo’s We Need New Names and Imbolo Mbue’s Behold the Dreamers. Examined from an interdisciplinary perspective that brings together different approaches to the figure of the stranger and Affect Theory the plurality of experiences of estrangement disorientation and unbelonging portrayed in these texts allows expansion upon Sara Ahmed’s investigation of stranger fetishism in her title Strange Encounters: Embodied Others in Post-coloniality (2000) and in so doing contributes to the recent call for a more nuanced understanding of the idea of stranger. In particular the critical and comparative study of the different migration experiences of the protagonists reveals that within the framework of the contemporary African diaspora to the West strange(r)ness is a situated embodied and emotional condition that depends on the politics of location and of identity from which it emerges. This book will particularly appeal to scholars and students in the fields of Postcolonial Studies African Diaspora Studies and Black Women’s Literature and will also be suitable for students at graduate and advanced undergraduate levels in English Studies. | Emotional Transitions in Contemporary Afrodiasporic Women’s Writing Defying the Ontology of the Stranger

Elementary Number Theory

Elementary Number Theory

Elementary Number Theory Gove Effinger Gary L. Mullen This text is intended to be used as an undergraduate introduction to the theory of numbers. The authors have been immersed in this area of mathematics for many years and hope that this text will inspire students (and instructors) to study understand and come to love this truly beautiful subject. Each chapter after an introduction develops a new topic clearly broken out in sections which include theoretical material together with numerous examples each worked out in considerable detail. At the end of each chapter after a summary of the topic there are a number of solved problems also worked out in detail followed by a set of supplementary problems. These latter problems give students a chance to test their own understanding of the material; solutions to some but not all of them complete the chapter. The first eight chapters discuss some standard material in elementary number theory. The remaining chapters discuss topics which might be considered a bit more advanced. The text closes with a chapter on Open Problems in Number Theory. Students (and of course instructors) are strongly encouraged to study this chapter carefully and fully realize that not all mathematical issues and problems have been resolved! There is still much to be learned and many questions to be answered in mathematics in general and in number theory in particular.

TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems

TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems

The evolution of the mobile communication market is causing a major increase in data traffic demands. This could lead to disrupted mobility and intermittent degraded channel conditions that contribute to poor transmission control protocol (TCP) performance. TCP Performance over UMTS-HSDPA Systems presents a comprehensive study of the effect of TCP on achieved application bit rate performance and system capacity and shows how to reduce the interaction of wireless networks on TCP with minimal cost. With self-contained chapters the book consists of two main sections. The first several chapters provide background and describe the state of the art for wireless networks emphasizing one of the third-generation (3G) wireless technologies: the universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS). These chapters also include an analysis of the overall cell capacity for UMTS Release 99 and high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) systems. The second section focuses on the interaction of TCP with wireless systems presenting an exhaustive list of TCP versions and link layer solutions that adapt TCP (often modifying the original TCP) to a wireless network. This section also displays mathematical modeling of the interaction of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) and TCP in UMTS networks. While offering information for advanced undergraduate students who are unfamiliar with code division multiple access (CDMA) wireless systems as well as UMTS and HSDPA cellular systems the book also provides extensive coverage of TCP over wireless systems problems and solutions for researchers developers and graduate students.
