lingual long-acting nitrates more prolonged than that achieved by nitroglycerin. It is likely that the duration of action of the sublingual nitrates is not as long as would be ideal, merely more prolonged than that achieved by nitroglycerin: a 1-21/2 hour duration of action seems most likely. Evidence that oral "long-acting nitrates" have a prolonged duration of action is, we agree, lacking. Al...

Erratum to "Optimal Reverse-Pricing Mechanisms" by Martin Spann, Robert Zeithammer, and Gerald Häubl

ROBERT CUMMINS, PIERRE POIRIER and MARTIN ROTH EPISTEMOLOGICAL STRATA AND THE RULES OF RIGHT REASON

It has been commonplace in epistemology since its inception to idealize away from computational resource constraints, i.e., from the constraints of time and memory.

Nobel Laureate Robert E. Lucas, Jr.: Architect of Modern Macroeconomics

Lucas’ central contribution is that he developed and applied economic theory to answer substantive questions in macroeconomics. Economists today routinely analyze systems in which agents operate...
