  "Principles of Economics" by Carl Menger is a seminal work in the field of economics, laying the foundation for the Austrian School of Economics. First published in 1871, Menger's book revolutionized economic thought by emphasizing the subjective nature of economic value and the role of individual preferences in determining prices. Menger's analysis of marginal utility and his explanation of how goods derive their value from their ability to satisfy human wants mark significant departures from classical economic theories prevalent at the time. This book remains essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the fundamentals of economic theory and the origins of modern economic thought.

  Imaginative Communities -...

  Americans are loud. Amsterdam equals sex, drugs, and rock & roll. Mexicans are lazy and Germans are boring, but punctual. Paris is romantic, Wuhan infectious, Ukrainians heroic, and New Zealand untouched.  
  This is the way people around the world think about cities, regions and countries and the communities that live there; through cliches and stereotypes. It can be frustrating and hindering trade, diplomacy, investment, tourism, or talent attraction. Many believe that such image problems can be resolved with advertising campaigns, but the classic tourism promotion model is broken and insufficient. This book explains what works and what doesn’t when it comes to improving the reputation of cities, regions, and countries. It does so without the use of jargon and with reference to numerous case-studies. The book primarily aims to inspire readers and offer them a broad overview of an issue in modern society that is of interest and relevance to all of us: the reputation of our communities.
