The Norfolk 17: A Personal Narrative on Desegregation in Norfolk, Virginia, in 1958 1962
This book is about my personal experiences and feelings as part of the "Norfolk 17," who went through the hardship of the initial school desegregation debacle from 1958 to 1962 in Norfolk, Virginia. It will provide some historical events, but more importantly, a first-hand account of what truly happened. I am a firm believer of the notion that formal history books are written by winners of war (i.e., one-sided, whoever is in control). Just like a well-prepared photo album, formal history books hide the "dirty laundry." In order to find the truth, one must necessarily dig deep, and sometimes the truth is so deep that it is still buried within people?s feelings. Therefore, bringing it out and presenting it to the world in the written form, as I do with this book, will be a great service for the present and the future and will help preserve the memories of the past no matter how painful they may be. Some of the stories you will read about may shock you, such as the verbal attacks when confronted by bigots, the extent of racial hatred, and the actual physical attacks exhibited like the incident with Lavera Forbes. I hope all who read the book will compare it to reports and writings offered by others on the same subject..

International Finance in Emerging Markets: Issues, Welfare Economics Analyses and Policy Implications (Contributions to Economics)
The book "International Finance in Emerging Markets" reviews contemporary issues in international monetary and financial economics in an emerging financial market using the example of Thailand. The book adopts the elements of new welfare economics and asymmetric information paradigms in analyzing those issues including financial liberalization, crisis, exchange rate determination, and domestic capital market reform. The book suggests for the first time a normative social approach for addressing the contemporary issues in international monetary and financial economics. It provides an example of cutting edge research in international finance and monetary economics within a welfare economics framework. It also suggests some policy implications of the welfare economic analysis of international financial issues in an emerging market.  " This book addresses contemporary issues in international monetary policy and finance from a welfare economics perspective, focusing on emerging market nations such as Thailand. It is a welcome contribution to the international finance literature." Prof. Steven L. Schwarcz, Stanley A. Star Professor of Law & Business, and Founding Director, Global Capital Markets Center, Duke University, USA .
