Riassunto

Evolutionary approach to systems from the entire economy to the behaviour of single markets.

Su questo libro

Descrizione del libro

A significant contribution to the paradigm which acknowledges that commercial systems are evolutionary, and must be analysed using evolutionary tools. This volume considers systems from the entire economy to the behaviour of single markets. Topics include: debt-deflation, stock management, consumer interactions, and nonlinear methods to profit from market volatility.
