"This two-volume publication introduces readers to one of the largest private collections of architectural drawings in the world. Showcasing drawings and related models and artefacts dating from 1691 to the mid 20th century, this lavish set includes both an illustrated catalogue and new texts by leading authorities, and provides a fascinating look at these often very beautiful, but sometimes neglected, by-products of architectural training and practice. The collection has been assembled over 30 years by investor and philanthropist Peter W. May, and includes more than 600 sheets that have all been carefully preserved and handsomely framed. This publication introduces amateurs and specialists alike to this largely unknown collection of materials that have been collected off-and-on through history by individuals and institutions. Works include 19th- and early 20th-century competition or certification drawings by design students, plus presentation drawings for public commissions, reconstruction studies, or interior designs. The catalogue is arranged by category, consistent with the orientation of May's interest in specific building types such as commercial or cultural institutions, train stations and spas, landmarks and monuments, private and royal residences, and cast-iron architecture. Also represented is a category for landscape designs and garden architecture, reflecting May's experience as a gentleman farmer with a predilection for building"--OCLC OLUC.

Abstract: This paper reexamines the debate over whether the United States fell into a liquidity trap in the 1930s. We first review the literature on the liquidity trap focusing on Keynes's discussion of â??absolute liquidity preferenceâ?? and the division that soon emerged between Keynes, who believed that a liquidity trap had not been reached, and the American Keynesians who believed that the United States had fallen into a liquidity trap. We then explore several interest rates that have been neglected in previous analyses: yields on corporate debt (from Aaa to junk), bank lending rates, and mortgage rates. In general, our results strengthen the case for believing that there was no liquidity trap in the 1930s in the sense of one that covered the full spectrum of interest rates. The small segment of time in which a liquidity trap might have been present, however, makes drawing firm conclusions risky
