Promoting Prosperity in Mississippi
In this book, we identify key areas for Mississippi economic policy reform. Twenty-one scholars, ten of which are from or work in Mississippi, have contributed original policy research. All twenty chapters were written specifically for Mississippi with a shared goal to promote prosperity in the state. While some of the chapters contain complex policy reforms, we have made every effort to present the concepts and ideas in a way that is understandable to the average citizen, the person who can benefit the most from this information. The first three chapters of the text summarize the basic economic principles necessary to achieve economic prosperity. These three chapters present the principles ...
Too Tired to Cook
Imagine a world where hospitals closed at 5 p.m., where trains and buses stopped at the end of the day, and where emergency service calls were directed to voicemail with the setting of the sun. Despite our reliance on these services, there is very little help and support available to those who deliver them—until now. In this compelling book, Audra Starkey educates her readers on how to mitigate some of the adverse health eff ects of being awake when everyone else is winding down their day or sleeping. Learn how to: • implement relaxation techniques at the end of a shift instead of relying on medications to fall asleep; • lose weight and minimise weight fluctuations by focusing not only on what to eat, but also when; • reduce some of the debilitating effects of stress, anxiety and depression which can lead to burnout; and • navigate disruptions to your personal and social life. The fact is the world needs people to work 24/7, but if you’re one of them—you need to stay healthy too. Arm yourself with valuable information to nurture your mind, body, and spirit with the lessons and strategies in Too Tired to Cook.

Die Information im europäischen Lebensmittelrecht unter Berücksichtigung der Verhaltenswissenschaften
Die Information steht im Zentrum des europäischen Lebensmittelrechts und der Regulierung der Ernährung. Patrick Schultes zeichnet in dieser Arbeit den Entstehungs- und Konkretisierungskontext sowie die Entwicklung der Lebensmittelinformation – vor allem in Bezug auf ihre rechtliche Ausgestaltung – nach. Dabei analysiert er die Verschiebung von einer maßgeblich informationsökonomisch geprägten Bedeutung der Lebensmittelinformation hin zum Einsatz als genuin ernährungs- und gesundheitspolitisches Instrument. In diesem Zusammenhang wird das Einflusspotential verhaltenswissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse auf die (europäische) Gesetzgebung dargelegt. Zudem stellt die Arbeit Bezüge zur Individualisierung und Verantwortungsübertragung sowie zu Foucaults Biogouvernementalität her.
Taxing Sin
Conventional wisdom dictates that those goods which are said to cause harm or impose costs on society deserve a special tax. For centuries, governments have levied these "sin taxes" on alcohol and tobacco, but the list of taxable sins has now grown to include soda and marijuana, with calls to impose further taxes on plastic bags, meat, and even robots and carbon. Contrary to what experts and policymakers tell us, many of these alleged sins impose very little, if any, cost on society, and the harms that do exist can be minimized without resorting to tax. What follows in this book is a discussion of four case studies—on tobacco, marijuana, alcohol and soda—which make the case against the conventional wisdom in taxing these "sins", before concluding that when it comes to taxing sin, it is time for governments to forgive—and forget.
