Ad feedback By A Customer on 23 Jan. 2002 Format: Paperback Customer Images This book is a must for anyone interested in using liquid emulsion. In addition to being very practical and easy to read it also manages to be inspiring - showing great real life examples of how the material has been used. I've printed on ceramics, cloth and different papers and found the book really helped with preparing each project. Reading it I could visualise everything first and picture what I'd need, what problems I might encounter and how best to avoid them. The troubleshooting section is invaluable in the darkroom, too.

  • The Amazon Community Because Members Are Able to Rate All Outside Sellers and Their Products
    CASE #1- AMAZON.COM- A BUSINESS HISTORY1 TO APPEAR IN-“E-COMMERCE MANAGEMENT: TEXT AND CASES” BY SANDEEP KRISHNAMURTHY([email protected]) (LAST UPDATED ON MARCH 12, 2002) Introduction In many ways, Amazon.com is perhaps the company that is most closely tied with the E-Commerce phenomenon. The Seattle, WA based company has grown from a book seller to a virtual Wal-Mart of the Web selling products as diverse as Music CDs, Cookware, Toys and Games and Tools and Hardware. The company has also grown at a tremendous rate with revenues rising from about $150 million in 1997 to $3.1 billion in 2001. However, the rise in revenue has led to a commensurate increase in operating losses leaving the company with a large deficit. The company did make its first quarterly profit of $5.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. But, this was dwarfed by large cumulative losses. Its share price, as shown in Figure 1, is perhaps the biggest symbol of the rise and fall of the dot-coms. [Insert Figure 1 About Here.] The purpose of this case is to present a balanced and up-to-date business history of the company. Background The story of the formation of Amazon.com is often repeated and is now an urban legend. The company was founded by Jeff Bezos, a computer science and electrical engineering graduate from Princeton University. Bezos had moved to Seattle after resigning as the senior vice-president at D.E.Shaw, a Wall Street investment bank. He did not know much about the Internet.

We explore the in- creased centrality of platforms in two ways. First, we measure the extent to which platforms are insinuating themselves into the economy. We accomplish this by ana- lyzing the presence of platforms as intermediating organizations across all US ser- vice industries at the six-digit North American Industry Classification System code level. Our results show that 70% of service industries, representing over 5.2 million establishments, are potentially affected by one or more platforms. Secondly, we un- dertake a detailed firm-level case study of the mega-platform, Amazon, which dem- onstrates the ways that the aforementioned macro-level data is expressed by a single platform firm. This case study shows that Amazon’s growth trajectory has resulted in it entering and transforming existing industries and sectors.

Amazon is an amazing company. Unlike many companies that created an online presence and are no longer in business, Amazon is still around today and thriv- ing. In fact, the company’s owner, Jeff Bezos, was recently quoted as saying the Amazon Services subsidiary (the one that provides your online experience among other things) might eventually become their main business (see the InfoWorld article at http://www.infoworld.com/article/ 03/06/10/HNamazondives_1.html?business for details). Given all that Amazon is doing, it’s easy to understand how all of these new services could become confusing even to seasoned professionals. This chapter helps you understand what Amazon Web Services can do for you and how it fits within your business or research plans. It also discusses what you need to know in order to best use Amazon Web Services for your particular needs.

  • The Platform Economy Matures: Measuring Pervasiveness and Exploring Power Abstract
    The Platform Economy Matures: Measuring Pervasiveness and Exploring Power Abstract: Online platforms are pervasive and powerful in today's economy. We explore the increased centrality of platforms through two empirical contributions. First, we measure the extent to which platforms are insinuating themselves into the economy. We accomplish this by undertaking an analysis of the presence of platforms as intermediating organizations across all US service industries at the six-digit NAICS code level. Our results show that 70% of service industries, representing over 5.2 million establishments, are potentially affected by one or more platforms. Second, we undertake a detailed firm-level case study of the mega-platform, Amazon that demonstrates the ways that the earlier macro-level data is expressed by a single platform firm. This case study shows that Amazon’s growth trajectory has resulted in it entering and transforming existing industries and sectors. We conclude by reflecting upon the limitations and implications for future research. Keywords: Platform Economy, Industrial Organization, Amazon, Digitization, Technology, Governance JEL classification: J0, O1, O3 1. Introduction Online platform firms have insinuated themselves into ever more sectors of the economy and accumulated power as critical intermediaries (Kenney and Zysman, 2016; Srnicek, 2016; Van Dijck et al., 2018; Zuboff, 2019).1 In contrast, initially many social scientists believed that a new era of “sharing” was dawning and platforms would decentralize power, allowing individuals and small businesses to compete with traditional firms (Einav et al., 2016). Others asserted that platforms would encourage “sharing” and, perhaps, even lead to greater economic democracy (Benkler 2006; Frenken and Schor, 2017; Schor, 2016; Sundararajan, 2013; 2016).
