The Economics of Chocolate
Author: Mara P. Squicciarini
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191039918
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
This book, written by global experts, provides a comprehensive and topical analysis on the economics of chocolate. While the main approach is economic analysis, there are important contributions from other disciplines, including psychology, history, government, nutrition, and geography. The chapters are organized around several themes, including the history of cocoa and chocolate -- from cocoa drinks in the Maya empire to the growing sales of Belgian chocolates in China; how governments have used cocoa and chocolate as a source of tax revenue and have regulated chocolate (and defined it by law) to protect consumers' health from fraud and industries from competition; how the poor cocoa producers in developing countries are linked through trade and multinational companies with rich consumers in industrialized countries; and how the rise of consumption in emerging markets (China, India, and Africa) is causing a major boom in global demand and prices, and a potential shortage of the world's chocolate.

Mrs. Brower's Sayings
Author: Lillian Brower
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1524504637
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 77
Book Description
This book originated as a saying-of-the-day project for the chalkboard in her work, which is unique. None of the sayings have more than one sentence, and none are more than two lines long. These little gems have been categorized, alphabetized, and indexed for easy reference. This book contains an abundance of material for teachers, preachers, and public speakers. Writers, journalists, counselors, or columnists might revel in having access to such an assemblage of adages, aphorisms, epigrams, wit, and a bit of nonsense. This publication could be the source of such diverse marketable items as key rings, plaques, bulletins, newsletters, T-shirts, coffee cups, auto-license tags, and even fortune cookies. Its most valuable use, though, would probably be to browse through for simple pleasure. The reader could use the contents to start his or her own saying-of-the-day list.

Pages : 248
Book Description
Len spent his formative years playing on the streets of Baltimore. Those streets were seldom paved and they teemed with horses, carriages, and manure. Sanitation was poor and medicine crude by todays standards. Orphans abounded and there were no laws to protect the innocent. Life was rarely just or fair but to a child it was almost always fun. He watched the ships coming and going in the harbor; clipper ships, steam ships, later submarines and ocean-going liners. He saw Buffalo Bills Wild West Show and he survived the Spanish Influenza. He partied through the Roaring Twenties, lost all his money in the crash of 29 and eked out a living during the Depression. He saw his son off to war and scoffed along with the rest of the country at those early television shows. At his mothers urging he moved to Altoona, Pennsylvania where he bought a home, raised a family, and became a part of the life of that community. Railroads were at the peak of their prosperity when he began to work for the Pennsylvania Railroad and he was still there when the glory of the railroads began to wane. His story is one of an ordinary man witnessing extraordinary times as the world underwent the most dramatic social, political, and technological changes in history. This is his story. It is a tale of love and laughter.
