MCGRAW-HILL’S CHINESE ILLUSTRATED DICTIONARY

Live ABC 2009 Hardcover with Audio CD 176 pages ISBN: 9780071615907



A breakthrough bilingual dictionary that makes finding the right Chinese character a breeze

When he surveyed his students, author Quanyu Huang found that only two out of 300 used a Chinese dictionary. Their main obstacle is how existing dictionaries are organized; either a user needs to know the “radical” of a character, how to recognize or count writing strokes, or how a character is pronounced. In McGraw- Hill’s Chinese Dictionary and Guide to 20,000 Essential Words the author overcomes this problem with his unique “broken marks” method. Each character is comprised of different marks separated by a physical space or sharp change of direction at the end of a mark. Count these marks, and you can locate the Chinese character you need in less than a minute. This dictionary and guide will also be a perfect complement to your AP Chinese studies.

THE VAR IMPLEMENTATION HANDBOOK

Greg N. Gregoriou



THE VAR MODELING HANDBOOK

Practical Applications in Alternative Investing, Banking, Insurance, and Portfolio Management

Greg N. Gregoriou



I n Th e R i s k M o d e l i n g Eva l u a t i o n Handbook, an international team of experts evaluates the problematic riskmodeling methods used by large financial institutions and breaks down how these models contributed to the decline of the global capital markets. Readers will learn to identify the shortcomings of the most widely used risk models and gain important strategies for properly implementing these models into their investing portfolios.

CONTENTS Section One: Introduction to Model Risk Section Two: Model Risk Related to Equity and Fixed Income Investments Section Three: Model Risk Related to Credit and Credit Derivatives Instruments Section Four: Model Risk Related to Valuation Models Section Five: Limitations to Measure Risk Section Six: Modeling Market Risk for Risk Markets Section Seven: Economic Capital and Asset Allocation



The VaR Implementation Handbook is a hands-on road map for professionals who have a solid background in VaR but need the critical strategies, models, and insights to apply their knowledge in the real world. This complete guide thoroughly covers the three major areas of VaR implementation-measuring, modeling risk, and managing-in three convenient sections.

CONTENTS 1. Efficient VaR 2. Corporate VaR 3. Operational Value-at-Risk 4. VaR Performance Criterion (VPC) 5. Cross-Sectional Differences 6. Advanced Approaches to Calculation 7. Computational Aspects of VaR 8. Bayesian Tail Probabilities 9. Modeling Portfolio Risks 10. Computation of Economic Capital 11. High-Dimensional Portfolios 12. Measuring Portfolio Risks in Venture Capital 13. Evaluation of Sectors Traded on the ISE with VaR Analysis 14. Risk Measures in Portfolio Optimization 15. Modeling Parameter Uncertainty 16. Employing VaR Management Systems 17. Aggregating and Combining Ratings 18. A Critique of Value-at-Risk Models 19. Credit Derivatives 20. Modeling risk in VAR Estimates 21. Heterogeneous Investments Horizons 22. How Investors Face Financial Risk Loss Aversion and Wealth Allocation 23. Dynamical Models for the Value at Risk



Value-at-Risk ( VaR) is a powerful tool for assessing market risk in real time— a critical insight when making trading and hedging decisions. The VaR Modeling Handbook is the most complete, up-to-date reference on the subject for today’s savvy investors, traders, portfolio managers, and other asset and risk managers. Unlike market risk metrics such as the Greeks, or beta, which are applicable to only certain asset categories and sources of market risk, VaR is applicable to all liquid assets, making it a reliable indicator of total market risk. For this reason, among many others, VaR has become the dominant method for estimating precisely how much money is at risk each day in the financial markets. CONTENTS Section 1: Alternative Investments And Optimization 1: Asset Allocation For Hedge Fund Strategies 2: Estimating Value-At-Risk Of Institutional Portfolios With Alternative Asset Classes 3: Optimal Allocations Based On The Modified VaR vs. Utility-Based Risk Measure 4: Using VaR For Optimizing And Hedging Portfolios Section 2: Banking and Insurance Sector Applications 5: Capital Standards And Risk Alignment In Banking Firms 6: Risk Return Optimization 7: A Practitioner’s Critique Of Value-At-Risk Models 8: VaR For A Microcredit Loan Portfolio 9: Allocation Of Economic Capital In Banking: 10: Capital Requirement Calculation Of A General Insurance Undertaking 11: Economic Capital Management For Insurance Companies 12: Solvency II

DICTIONARY OF ARCHITECTURE AND CONSTRUCTION

Cyril M Harris, Columbia University



In an industry that involves the skills, expertise, and labor of a wide-range of professionals and workers, good communications become crucial, and a common vocabulary is key to successful projects. Many of the terms used in landscape architecture, land planning, environmental planning, and landscape construction are unavailable, or so new, or industry-specific that they can’t be found in conventional dictionaries. This unique resource delivers definitions as well as how-to information via details and photos, going above and beyond the scope of a typical professional dictionary. With straightforward definitions and clear illustrations on each page, everyone from architects, designers, and contractors through grounds maintenance workers will benefit from this important resource. In addition, an appendix with labeled construction details will illustrate not just what a term means, but also how it’s applied in the profession.



Updated and expanded, this Fourth Edition of the most trusted reference in architecture offers the most comprehensive coverage of architectural and construction terms available. This classic dictionary now features nearly 25,000 definitions (including 2,800 new terms), 2,500 illustrations (including 200 new illustrations), and maintains its extraordinary visual appeal and easy-to-read page design. Prepared by a renowned architectural editor in association with expert contributors and incorporating the work of many standards groups, the book presents clear, concise definitions of terms in nearly 80 working areas. The Fourth Edition covers new industry terms which have emerged due to changes in engineering and building technologies, organizations, materials, and legal developments, and has been expanded to include more historic architectural styles. New terms include: Legal Architectural Barriers Act Wheelchair Accessible Materials Fibrous Concrete Latex Mortar Polymer-Based Stucco Concrete Compliance Conformity Refractory Mortar Organizations Building Research Establishment (formerly Building Research Station) of Great Britain ASTM Historic Architectural Styles Anglo-Palladianism French Victorian Isabellino Mudajar Mozarabic Neo-Rococo.



TIME-SAVER STANDARDS FOR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN

Michael Crosbie, and Donald Watson



Since its release in 1946, this has been one of the most widely recognised and respected resources for architects, engineers, and designers, bringing together the knowledge, techniques and skills of some of the most wellknown experts in the field. The new Eighth Edition takes a fresh, visual approach to the information architects need to access quickly, helping them save time and money by assuring they get it right the first time. Readers will find timely, new chapters on building security, natural disaster mitigation, building diagnostics, facility management, and much more. The accompanying CD-Rom contains the complete contents of the Eighth Edition.
