Children's Literature and the Fin de Siècle
The close of a century invites both retrospection and prognostication. As a period of transition, it also brings a sense of uncertainty, finality, and apocalypticism. These feelings stem from various events, such as political turmoil, scientific advancements, and social change. As might be expected, literature reflects such changes and the feelings they engender. But perhaps more surprisingly, children's literature is especially sensitive to such matters, and fiction for children often struggles with dark and unpleasant issues. This book examines fin de siècle tensions in 19th- and 20th-century children's literature from around the world. Each chapter is written by an expert contributor, an...

Hungary
This Technical Assistance report highlights that the Hungarian economy is recovering gradually from a sharp recession. Restoring credit growth has become a central policy objective, seen as key to economic recovery and effective monetary transmission. Recent legislation significantly affects the banking sector. The Settlement Act requires banks to compensate borrowers for “unfair lending practices” on a retroactive basis for past unilateral contract modification and for the use of bid-ask spreads in calculating foreign currency loan disbursements. The principle areas of concern include the institutional factors and financial issues shown in the text table. The rest of this report discusses ways of mitigating the risks stemming from these factors, through setting appropriate objectives and institutional arrangements, and good operational practices. A clear mandate and well-defined objectives are critical for the effective functioning of asset management companies (AMC). Regardless of the ultimate policy objective behind the establishment of AMCs, once established, the institution should focus single minded on maximizing the value of the assets it has acquired.
Gender Differences in Smoking Behavior
"This paper investigates gender differences in smoking behavior using data from the German Socio-economic Panel (SOEP). We develop a Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition method for count data models which allows to isolate the part of the gender differential in the number of cigarettes daily smoked that can be explained by differences in observable characteristics from the part attributable to differences in coefficients. Our results reveal that the major part of the gender smoking differential is attributable to differences in coefficients indicating substantial differences in the smoking behavior between men and women rather than differences in characteristics"--Forschungsinstitut zur Zukunft der Arbeit web site.

Bariatric Surgery in Women of Reproductive Age: Special Concerns for Pregnancy
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States. Along with this increase, weight loss surgeries, known as bariatric procedures, have become increasingly common. This report assesses the incidence of these operations in women of reproductive age and reviews the evidence on the impact of such surgery on fertility, contraception, prepregnancy risk factors, and pregnancy outcomes, including those for neonates. For patients who are severely obese, most nonsurgical treatments—such as diet, exercise, and medications—are not very effective at producing significant weight loss and, more importantly, maintaining weight loss. A recent meta-analysis by Li found that medications, along...
