Big Steel
World steel production has grown dramatically as countries industrialize and add their own steel-producing capacity. China's prodigious expansion of steel output has increased the industry's natural vulnerability to oversupply and volatile prices. And the merger of the two largest steelmakers, Arcelor and Mittal, portends consolidation as a prime strategy for diversification and stabilization. This book examines the competition and survival strategies of the integrated steel industry from various vantage points including cost structures and technology, export pricing strategies, the economics of trade protection, Paul Krugman's Nobel Prize-winning explanation of industrial diffusion and trade, and the prospects of cooperating closely with automakers. The industry's future, Big Steel shows, is cosmopolitan.
Sky's Pride and Joy
Loner Sky Buchanan was sure that his encounter with beguiling Meredith Warner was just a beautiful memory—until the day she returned to town, expecting his child! Sky had never planned on kids—nor wanted a wife. Still, the thought of his baby cradled in Meredith's gentle embrace—and Meredith in his own—spurred him to propose. But how dare she refuse—didn't she know how many others had longed to hear those words? Yet Meredith insisted on more than "I do"—she wanted the other words. Was there a chance she'd ever get them?

Enterprise and Heritage
The phenomena of `enterprise' and `heritage' might at first thought seem unrelated: this book sets out to show that the two concepts are not only related but deeply interdependent. If `enterprise' can be used to define the official encouragement of the values of the market society, then the growth of the heritage industry can be seen as a manifestation of the entrepreneurial spirit - marketing the past so that it is accessible to the man or woman in the street. Using case studies, commentary and critique, the contributors to this lively volume discuss the importance of `enterprise' and `heritage' in British social and cultural life, with examples drawn from film, television, literature, urban planning, architecture, government advertising, information technology and tourism.
