sustained is by omitting any reference to the sensation novels thronged with palpably nervous middle-class bodies which gave rise during the 1860s to a fury of indignation. "The reader's nerves are affected like the hero's", Margaret Oliphant stridently complained in a review of the most famous of them all, Wilkie Collins's The woman in white (1860). Such omissions make Nerves and narratives, a...

This paper examines the migration response to a millionaire tax in New Jersey, which raised its income tax rate on top earners by 2.6 percentage points to 8.97 percent, one of the highest tax rates in the country. Drawing on unique state tax micro-data, we estimate the migration response of millionaires to the rate increase, using a difference-in-differences estimation strategy. The results ind...

Conley and Wilkie (1993) introduced and axiomatized the Nash extension bargaining solution, defined on a domain of comprehensive but not necessarily convex problems. In this paper we present a non-cooperative game that implements the Nash extension solution in subgame perfect equilibria in the limit as the discount rate applied between rounds of play vanishes. Journal of Economic Literature Cla...

Background. More than 20% of women treated for breast cancer are at risk for developing lymphedema, a chronic condition that causes swelling, pain, altered appearance and reduced mobility. Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT) is considered the gold standard to treat lymphedema. Objective. To measure lymphedema features and psychological variables in 10 post-breast cancer surgery patients at base...

It is often said that poor countries are poor because they are deficient in what economists call capital stock: i.e. they lack the tangible infrastructures that enable modern developed societies to function and to create more wealth-----roads, communications systems, schools, machines, and factories. But capital stock does not grow wild. Its appearance at a particular time and place is the resu...

• issuance of 147,000,000 privatization checks (vouchers) as freely transferable bearer securities, accepted by the State as payment for shares of privatized enterprises (huge educational effect, redistribution of ownership and creation of the securities market); • massive transformation of state-owned enterprises into joint-stock companies and issue of shares of privatized enterprises; • vouch...

OBJECTIVE The Appearance Schemas Inventory (ASI) is a 14-item instrument that assesses body image investment in relation to certain beliefs or assumptions about the importance, meaning, and influence of appearance in one's life. Despite empirical support of the ASI, critical examination evinces several limitations of this assessment. These problems entail the inclusion of explicitly self-evalua...

• Since Wilkie’s result [9] (which established that the elementary theory Texp of (R, exp) is model complete and o-minimal), many o-minimal expansions of the reals have been investigated. The problem of constructing nonarchimedean models of Texp (and more generally, of an ominimal expansion of the reals) gained much interest. • In [2] it was shown that fields of generalized power series cannot ...

The Extraordinary Magnetoresistance (EMR) effect is a change in the resistance of a device upon the application of a magnetic field in hybrid structures, consisting of a semiconductor and a metal. The underlying principle of this phenomenon is a change of the current path in the hybrid structure upon application of a magnetic field, due to the Lorentz force. Specifically, the ratio of current, ...
