"Industrial Shift: The Structure of the New World Economy" shows that in the rapidly changing global economy, the popular impression of declining manufacturing and agriculture is largely unfounded. Several charts from the UN and World Bank databases support the analysis, showing that factory output is growing virtually everywhere, but remains hidden by even faster service sector growth. Several surprises are revealed in employment, wages, and regional progress.
"Saving Money, The Missing Link", outlines the mindset of a saver as well as the three basic ideas behind your financial power. No tips or tricks here, but a solid foundation based on how to think about this tricky aspect of personal affairs.
"Cuba Under Embargo" examines the macroeconomic impact of the US embargo on Cuba. Since the usual types of macro data do not exist in Cuba's case, Joe has compiled a series of alternative indicators to assess the damage. And since there has never been such a study, the results may be surprising.
Joe has a background in engineering, an honors degree in economics, and an early retirement.view less
