New York City serves as a
hub for international trade and finance industries. Manhattan, a borough of the
city, houses most of the city's financial activity. Located in Manhattan, the
American Stock Exchange functions as one of the principal exchange houses in the
United States. The financial traders pictured here work on the busy floor of the
exchange.
42 Wholesale Trade
Competition in the automotive industry
intensified during the 1980s and 1990s. The U.S. industry was particularly
hard-hit by the gas crisis of the late 1970s. Many consumers began to favor
smaller, less expensive, and often more fuel-efficient Japanese cars. Here, a
long line of Japanese cars awaits export from the port of Yokohama.

Alternatives
to single-family homes, including townhouses, three- and four-family structures,
and mobile homes, emerged during the 1950s and 1960s. These different housing
forms allowed more and more families to own their own home. Mobile homes became
particularly popular because they are relatively inexpensive and easy to move.
As a result of the increase in the sale of mobile homes, mobile home parks began
to offer more conveniences to their renters, including swimming pools, such as
this one at an early mobile home park in Miami, Florida.

4213 Lumber and Other
Construction 
North Carolina is one of the most
successful lumber-producing states in the country. Its extensive forests of hard
and soft woods, covering nearly three-fifths of the state's land area, provide
raw material for industry. The manufacture of paper and of wood furniture
thrives in the state.

The Cray-2 Supercomputer
(designed by Seymour Cray of Cray Research, Eagan, MN) was first introduced in
1985, nine years after first model, the Cray-1, was introduced.

mathematical studies of complex problems, such as speech analysis, weather
forecasts, and fundamental questions in physics and chemistry

42145 Medical, Dental, and Hospital
A specially trained trauma
team at Bellevue Hospital in New York City treats a patient injured in a
drug-related fall. Blood vessels between the membranes surrounding his brain
have ruptured, causing an increase in pressure inside the skull that may kill
him if not treated immediately. Teams like this one must diagnose and treat many
such unconscious and critically injured patients every day. Modern hospitals
include CT scanners and X-ray and emergency surgery facilities to make this
possible. They may also have access to equipment such as helicopter "life
flight" ambulances that increase chances of survival even more.

Wholesalers typically
purchase large quantities of products from manufacturers and then distribute
those products to a number of retailers. To sell the products to consumers,
retailers use advertising and other sales strategies. Here, stores selling
electronics advertise their goods with neon signs along the streets of Tokyo's
Akihabara District.
