Book Description
In 1904, a woman was arrested on Fifth Avenue for smoking a cigarette, while a procession of bemused smoking males passed by unharassed. For the next 50 years, with the creative encouragement of the emerging giants of the cigarette industry, the right to smoke became a symbol of women's liberation and equality. That liberation came at a terrible price. As the lung cancer rate for women soared, passing breast cancer as the leading cause of cancer in women in 1985, women achieved a grisly equality. On February 4, 1987, a group of women leaders active both in public health and in a wide diversity of women's organizations-gathered together in Washington to take stock of the common effort. A series of papers-on smoking's role in women's disease and death, on women's smoking behavior, on the role of the tobacco industry-set the stage for an intensive effort by the participants, working in small groups, to hammer out together an agenda of strategies to combat smoking among women. The highlights of those papers, and a synthesis of the most favored strategies, form the body of this report. For 50 years, smoking reigned as a symbol of women's freedom. Now we know that smoking only substituted one form of enslavement for another. That's why the workshop participants chose to name their effort, the "Not Far Enough Network."

Book Description
Since childhood I've always felt a kinship with Dorothy and her friends. I think that's probably true for many queer people. Dorothy was torn from her colourless world and thrown into the vibrant land of Oz. She was forced to make a journey and on the way found not only herself but a chosen family. The Scarecrow, Lion and Tinman went on a journey to find something that they had inside them all along. The Land of Oz and it's inhabitants have always had a very special place in my heart and have given me great comfort through hard times. It has inspired me to write this collection of poems that I hope you will enjoy.

Has Globalization Gone Far Enough?
Author: Scott Bradford
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0881324531
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
Scott C. Bradford and Robert Z. Lawrence use the underlying data from purchasing power parity surveys to estimate the potential benefits from fully integrating goods markets among major OECD countries. These data are particularly useful because they are comprehensive, and every effort has been made to ensure that they are comparable. Input-output tables are used to eliminate distribution margins from final goods prices and thereby provide estimates of ex-factory prices. Price differentials have been taken as measures of barriers, and the welfare effects of eliminating these barriers have been estimated in a general equilibrium model. The study also provides insights into the relative openness of individual OECD countries to the world economy and the degree to which Europe has become a single market.
