Studies in Armenian EtymologyThis dissertation aims at an up-to-date description of the Indo-European lexical stock of Armenian with systematic inclusion of the new data. Being an etymological
investigation with specific purposes rather than an etymological dictionary per se, it focuses on new material and ideas and, consequently, only contains relevant topics and lexical entries. As an Indo-European language, Armenian has been the subject of etymological research for over a hundred years.
Newly revised and up-to-date, this edition of The Social Animal is a brief, compelling introduction to modern social psychology.

This book offers a concrete and accessible treatment of Euclidean, projective and hyperbolic geometry, with more stress on topological aspects than is found in most textbooks. The author's purpose is to introduce students to geometry on the basis of elementary concepts in linear algebra, group theory, and metric spaces, and to deepen their understanding of these topics in the process. A large number of exercises and problems is included, some of which introduce new topics.
Topics in Classical Micro- and Macroeconomics: Elements of a Critique of Neoricardian Theory
This book demonstrates that classical micro- and macroeconomics, in particular in the tradition of Smith, Ricardo and Marx, can be synthesized into a coherent whole from the perspective of formal model building as well as applied Leontief-Stone systems of national accounts and the input-output approaches built on them. This reformulation of classical economics differs significantly from the static Neoricardian formalization of the classical approach to economics.
