Study of the factor content of trade has become a laboratory to test our ideas about how the key elements of endowments, production, absorption and trade fit together within a general equilibrium framework. Already a great deal of progress has been made in fitting these pieces together. Nevertheless, the existing research raises a great many questions that should help to focus empirical researc...

Leamer and Levinsohn (1995) have recently proposed a formula for empirical work in international microeconomics summarized by the injunction to “Estimate, Don’t Test!” This is based on a perception that much of the empirical work has failed to be influential as it tests propositions we know ex ante to be false. We argue that the empirical work has been more influential than they suggest. We use...

Myocarditis has long been recognized as a complication of rheumatic fever, diphtheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. It also occurs in association with poliomyelitis and more rarely with other virus infections such as influenza, mumps, psittacosis, infectious mononucleosis, primary atypical pneumonia, varicella, measles, infectious hepatitis and yellow fever (Lyon, 1956; Silber, 1958). Myoc...

Infiltration of various organs, notably the lung, has been recognized as an allergic manifestation since Loeffler (1932) first described his syndrome, the main features of which were: i. Recurring mild afebrile illness with minimal physical signs. 2. Slight and transient infiltration of the lung fields noted on chest X-ray. 3. Variable and inconstant eosinophilia in the blood picture. Kaijser (...

Development of an accurate mathematical model of sufficient generality to evaluate drying processes in materials having diverse moisture transport properties is proposed. The process of wood drying is interpreted as simultaneous heat and moisture transfer with local thermodynamic equilibrium at each point within the timber. The model is a mathematical one treating wood as a continuous and homog...

The COVID-19 pandemic offers a lens of intense clarity, highlighting the weaknesses and inhumaneness world in which humans must be actively engaged capitalist market economy to live. Anthropological understandings human histories possibilities challenge contemporary economies suggest renewed social economic for post-COVID landscape. Between December 2019 July 2021, more than 4.3 million people ...

An epidemic of interstitial pneumonia principally involving premature infants occurred in Germany and nearby European countries between the 1920s and 1960s. Fatalities were due to Pneumocystis. Because the principal defenses against Pneumocystis are T cells, an acquired T-cell deficiency was postulated. A number of potential causes including malnutrition were considered. All were implausible ex...
