The new edition also contains applications that are set in the context of the COVID-19 crisis. • Our objectiveis to presentideas andmodelsthataccurately describe the functioningof the modern economy. This means that we need explanations for multi-product firms that operate off a single platform; we need to understand the power of global firms to deter entry into the sector of the economy they dominate; we need to understand the power wielded by firms such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Facebook. • The text still develops the traditional models of demand and supply, welfare economics and choice, perfect competition and monopoly and various imperfect competition models. A new section on matching markets - those where money does not lubricate the exchange - is developed in the chapter on imperfect competition. • Where international trade is concerned we explore traditional models of comparative advantage and increasing returns, and also formulate policies for pandemics. • Tables, figures and underlying data throughout the text have been updated to the latest available as of 2020. • In sum, this edition aims to develop simple models of behaviour that accord with and explain the structure of the markets we observe in the modern economy. • Chapters 1, 2, and 4 have new Applications incorporating current events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 US Presidential campaign, and changes to the price of oil. • Chapter 1 includes a new subsection: Aggregate Output in a National Economy. • Chapter 7 has an expanded discussion of risk pooling, including an exploration of start-ups and their investors. • Chapter 11 includes a new section: Economies of Scope and Platforms. Chapter 11 has an ex- panded section on strategic barriers to entry as well as a section on matching markets. • In Chapter 15, topics of internationaltradeare expandedto include the updates regarding NAFTA, the USMCA, the EU, CETA, and the TPP. A discussion of protectionism in a time of pandemics is included. ii 2017 B • Data, tables, and figures have been updated to the latest available data. Applications and discus- sions have been edited to discuss and comment on these current observations. • New content added including zero-sum games, teams and services, market design and matching, and returns to scale for the production of intermediate goods. • Discussion of climate change in relation to externalities is expanded and updated to reflect current events. 2017 A • Front matter has been updated including cover, copyright, and revision pages.

  • Prayerbook 2014
    THE RULE OF THE IONA COMMUNITY MEMBERS Our five-fold Rule calls us to 1. Daily prayer and Bible-reading 2. Sharing and accounting for the use of our resources, including money 3. Planning and accounting for the use of our time 4. Action for Justice and Peace in society 5. Meeting with and accounting to each other. Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation Commitment We believe: 1 that the Gospel commands us to seek peace founded on justice and that costly reconciliation is at the heart of the Gospel; 2 that work for justice, peace and an equitable society is a matter of extreme urgency; 3 that God has given us partnership as stewards of creation and that we have a responsibility to live in a right relationship with the whole of God’s creation; 4 that, handled with integrity, creation can provide for the needs of all, but not for the greed which leads to injustice and inequality, and endangers life on earth; 5 that everyone should have the quality and dignity of a full life that requires adequate physical, social and political opportunity, without the oppression of poverty, injustice and fear; 6 that social and political action leading to justice for all people and encouraged by prayer and discussion is a vital work of the Church at all levels; 1 7 that the use or threatened use of nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction is theologically and morally indefensible and that opposition to their existence is an imperative of the Christian faith.
