Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. x, 393 p. This book assesses both the promise and the challenges of using scanner data to produce economic statistics. Three chapters present the results of work in progress at statistical agencies in the U.S., United Kingdom, and Canada, including a project at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to investigate the feasibility of incorporating scanner data into the monthly Consumer Price Index. Other chapters demonstrate the enormous potential of using scanner data to test economic theories and estimate the parameters of economic models, and provide solutions for some of the problems that arise when using scanner data, such as dealing with missing data. Contents: Using scanner data to improve the quality of measurement in the Consumer Price Index / William J. Hawkes and Frank W. Piotrowski -- Scanner indexes for the Consumer Price Index / David H. Richardson -- Price collection and quality assurance of item sampling in the Retail Prices Index / David Fenwick . [et al.] -- Estimating price movements for consumer durables using electronic retail transactions data / Robin Lowe and Candace Ruscher -- High-frequency substitution and the measurement of price indexes / Robert C. Feenstra and Matthew D. Shapiro -- What can the price gap between branded and private-label products tell us about markups? / Robert Barsky . [et al.] -- Long shadow of patent expiration / Ernst R. Berndt, Margaret K. Kyle, and Davina C. Ling -- Measurement of quality-adjusted price changes / Mick Silver and Saeed Heravi -- Hedonic regressions / Erwin Diewert -- Price index estimation using price imputation for unsold items / Ralph Bradley.

Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. 1st. 192 pages, chiefly colour illustrations; 31 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Light edgewear to wraps. Stated First Edition. Another copy available. *** "Nancy Graves is one of the truly remarkable art talents of the current generation. A protean creator, she has produced work of startling originality and beauty as a painter, graphic artist, filmmaker, and sculptor. From Graves's first three-dimensional work -- her camels -- to her most recent works in bronze, her sculpture has been innovative and influential not only for its aesthetic impact but also because it has stretched the boundaries of sculptural media. Graves's bronzes are composed to a variety of elements, many of which are cast from such natural, organic, and/or everyday objects as pretzels, sardines, leaves, and cooking scissors. These works are then colored through a combination of techniques -- polyurethane paint, fired enamel, and patination -- to an extent that is unmatched in the work of any other modernist sculptor. The Sculpture of Nancy Graves is both a monograph and a catalogue raisonn of all her sculpture to date (with virtually every work reproduced in color!). It includes fascinating essays by E.A. Carmean, Jr., director of the Fort Worth Art Museum; Robert Hughes, art critic of Time magazine; Michael Edward Shapiro, curator of 19th- and 20th-century art at the Saint Louis Art Museum; and Linda L. Cathcart, director of the Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston. The Sculpture of Nancy Graves is published in conjunction with a retrospective exhibition of Graves's sculpture organized by the Fort Worth Art Museum; it will open at the Hirshhorn Museum of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., and subsequently travel to Fort Worth, the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, and the Brooklyn Museum." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: A note on Nancy Graves's Titles, by E.
