From the Paper
"In an increasingly globalized marketplace, understanding the forces at play has become more challenging that ever before. Fortunately, economists have some useful tools at their disposal to help them make sense of things, with one of these being the Mundell-Fleming model. All of the models share in common the fact that they are better suited for some purposes than others, and the Mundell-Fleming model is no exception."

Abstract
This paper provides both a summary and an analysis of Thomas Fleming's book 'The Louisiana Purchase', a book detailing the history of the purchase of Louisiana by the United States. According to this paper, Fleming examines the process that led to the purchase of the Louisiana territory from its inception to the very end.
From the Paper
"The Louisiana Purchase added over 830,000 square miles of land to the territory possessed by the United States, virtually doubling the country's size. The land that was added would eventually be divided into a number of the current southern, Midwestern, and western states. Such an extensive addition to a country does not happen overnight, nor can it happen without collaboration between many people. The Louisiana Purchase was no exception. Thomas Fleming's book, 'The Louisiana Purchase', looks at many, if not all, of the factors that went into this massive undertaking."

Abstract
This paper states that Thomas Fleming's strong research in preparation to writing "The Louisiana Purchase" indicated that the United States wanted to gain control over access to the Mississippi River to be able to ship goods through to Spain and to provide safe harbor for American ships servicing the southern states. The author points out that Fleming argues that possibly Napoleon was willing to sell the Louisiana territory because he was more interested in diverting his attention to the unconquered areas of Egypt and India rather than the undeveloped areas of Louisiana. The paper stresses that the Louisiana Purchase was a victory with the rival French, established the U.S. as a world power and gave Americans a vast new and different land in which to acquire new lifestyles.
From the Paper
"It is obvious from the book that after the "Quasi War" or the undeclared war with France, relations were at a definite strain. These battles fought only at sea and lasted from 1798 to 1800. The tensions manifested themselves with France when they began seizing American ships and goods that were trading with the British. The hostilities between the U.S. and France became a major cause of frictions and physical confrontations primarily due to the greed over land and power that permeated the world at the time."

Abstract
In the 21st century, James Bond has become synonymous with fast cars, stiff drinks, high stakes and beautiful women. He is the quintessential British hero - men want to be him, and women want to be with him. This paper looks at how upon closer examination of Ian Fleming's 1958 novel, "Doctor No", it appears that Bond is not the perfect embodiment of the Alpha Male as we have come to regard him. It discusses how "Doctor No" shows thinly veiled homosexual anxieties in the relationship between Bond and Honeychile Rider.
From the Paper
"James Bond is illustrated as a product of the British Public School system. Tony Bennett and Janet Woolacott, writers of Bond and Beyond, determine this from 'Bond's relationship to M [which] carries with it some of the nuances of public school 'fagging', fear, respect and admiration.' Ian Fleming's own education at Eton hints at the source of homosexual anxieties implicit in Doctor No. In Hugo Williams' commentary on Fleming, Williams remembers his own Eton days, 'having to cook sausages over an open fireplace for some older boy.' This insinuation at the same sex domesticity between the boys at Eton - where the younger boy is presumably the wife, the older boy the husband - is rehearsed throughout Doctor No."

From the Paper
" The Wizard of Oz, which made at MGM in 1939, is still on of the world?s favorite films. It has remained special because it visualizes its own unique world. It inspired many films that followed, from Star Wars to Close Encounters of the Third Kind, because it constructed its own universe: one that could be enjoyed by adults and children alike.
Others films have borrowed more noticeably and directly from The Wizard of Oz. The opening sequence of Martin Scorsese?s Alice Doesn?t Live Here Anymore shows the young Alice in a setting very much like Dorothy in the Kansas opener of Oz. The sci-fi epic Zardoz, directed by John Boorman, also borrows from the classic, starting with its title and the play (...)"

About Benjamin Franklin

From the Paper
"With the agressive deregulation in the telecommunications industry in the United States and Europe during the early to mid-1990?s, it seemed that the local monopolies would be forced to unbundle their networks. However, MCI WorldCom, the second largest US long distance telecommunications company, announced in October 1999, that it would acquire Sprint, the third largest US long distance company, in the biggest corporate takeover in history. The merger is valued at $129 billion in cash, stock and debt. The resulting firm will be second only to AT&T in the US telecommunications industry, a company with, as of 1999, $65 billion in annual revenue, 142,000 workers and 40 million business and residential customers (McGaughlin, 1999)."

Abstract
This paper reviews Nick Hornsby's novel "High Fidelity." It discusses the general plot of the novel and describes, in detail, the role of the character Rob Fleming in the plot. The paper compares the character of Rob to the traditional Bildungsroman character and suggests that he does not fit with this typical role. It describes scenes and narratives of Rob's to explain this view-point.
From the Paper
"Eventually, by the end of the novel, Rob begins to acknowledge Laura's humanity as well as his own. This separates him from his friends: "'we're not as bad as you think, Rob.' 'You couldn't be. Look, Barry. There's going to be people from Laura's work there, people who own dogs and babies and Tina Turner albums. How are you going to cope with them?'" (303) Rob has, like the Bildungsroman hero, become integrated into a larger society and become a man and learned to judge persons on more meaningful criteria than their love of counter-cultural music on LPs. But rather than suggest that this is a loss of youth, ingenuity, and vitality, Rob's maturity comes to Laura, to the reader, and ultimately to himself as a relief, as this maturity has been long overdue."

Family and Household in Medieval England, 2002.

»

Abstract
This paper examines several questions regarding the book and its author. Peter Fleming's book deals mainly with the laws surrounding medieval families, and how they affected so many parts of family life. The writer argues that less attention to the law, and more attention to the actual activities of the family might have made it a more interesting read.
From the Paper
"Peter Fleming's book "Family and Household in Medieval England" is a historical text on the social history of medieval England, as the title suggests. The author concerns himself mostly with the history of family life and how it developed legally and socially. He follows the typical family through a natural order of events, from marriage, to childbirth through the end of the family unit due to death or disillusion of the unit by divorce, but always with the element of how laws affect this typical family. Fleming concentrates on the English family unit because he feels each country has "their own peculiarities" (Fleming, 2001, p. 3), and there is a wealth of information and research material available for England. Fleming uses broad definitions of 'family' and 'household' for his book. He says a family or a household is: "those members of the same kin who live together under one roof" and "persons living together under the same roof" (Fleming, 2001, p. 2)."

"The Wizard of Oz", 2007.
A discussion on "The Wizard of Oz", directed by, Victor Fleming.

Abstract
This paper introduces and discusses "The Wizard of Oz". It offers an archetypal analysis of the movie from the viewpoint of Jung's theory of the collective unconscious. The paper offers quotes from the film to qualify points made.
From the Paper
"Dorothy's journey through Oz to find the Wizard, or "trickster," is a journey through a magical land filled with strange and wonderful creatures. It can also be seen as a very real journey through the Jungian philosophy. First, Dorothy must travel through an unreal or unconscious landscape in an attempt to return to her normal conscious state. The entire time in Oz is a dream sequence in the film, so Dorothy is literally exploring her unconscious mind from the moment she is hit on the head and goes to sleep. Her return home (waking up) is a return to her conscious self. "

The Depiction of Women in Three Escapist Fictions, 2001.
A comparison of the depiction of women in Geoffrey Chaucer?s "The Tale of the Wife of Bath", Ian Fleming?s "From Russia with Love" and Sheri Tepper?s "Beauty".

Abstract
This essay explores how three influential writers, Geoffrey Chaucer, Ian Flemming and Sheri Tepper, from three different eras have depicted women in their writing. The portrayal of females by each writer is explored separately and then contrasted with that of the other writers. Specific examples and characters from these literary masterpieces are used to support the author?s argument. The author provides an analysis of the different ways in which women have been depicted throughout the history of literature
From the Paper
"The representation of women in literature has been the focus of much research conducted by both feminists and literature critics, particularly over the last thirty years. Sheri Tepper?s Beauty, Geoffrey Chaucer?s The Wife of Bath and Ian Fleming?s From Russia with Love, are all examples of escapist fiction in which the attitudes towards women play a key role in the theme of the story. Despite the claim that escapist fiction is isolated from the world in which its author lives, the values of both the author and the society in which he or she lives are reflected in their writing. The Wife of Bath, written in the fourteenth century, represents females as identical member of one group, all possessing the same faults and desires. Fleming, writing in 1957, depicts women differently again, categorising them into two extreme stereotypes ? the dominant, aggressive female and the submissive, naive female."
