This is Volume 3 of the Handbook of Industrial Organization series (HIO). Volumes 1 & 2 published simultaneously in 1989 and many of the chapters were widely cited and appeared on graduate reading lists. Since the first volumes published, the field of industrial organization has continued to evolve and this volume fills the gaps. While the first two volumes of HIO contain much more discussion of the theoretical literature than of the empirical literature, it was representative of the field at that time. Since then, the empirical literature has flourished, while the theoretical literature has continued to grow, and this new volume reflects that change of emphasis.Thie volume is an excellent reference and teaching supplement for industrial organization or industrial economics, the microeconomics field that focuses on business behavior and its implications for both market structures and processes, and for related public policies.

Provides a comprehensive and accessible survey of the field of Industrial Organization
Reviews
"This book by Allison (Ice Ocean Atmosphere and Climate Program, Australian Antarctic Division) et al., synthesizes of all the peer-reviewed scientific publications on human caused climate change since the publication of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report in 2007. The report provides the most up-to-date information on greenhouse gas emissions, the global carbon cycle, sea level rise, future climate projections, and more. Presented in relatively accessible language with dozens of charts, figures, and photographs, this book is intended for the general reader concerned with climate change as well as those in academia."--Reference and Research Book News
