Stocks and bonds? Real estate? Hedge funds? Private equity? If you think those are the things to focus on in building an investment portfolio, Andrew Ang has accumulated a body of research that will prove otherwise. In his new book Asset Management: A Systematic Approach to Factor Investing, Ang upends the conventional wisdom about asset allocation by showing that what matters aren''t asset class labels but the bundles of overlapping risks they represent. Making investments is like eating a healthy diet, Ang says: you''ve got to look through the foods you eat to focus on the nutrients they contain. Failing to do so can lead to a serious case of malnutrition-for investors as well as diners. The key, in Ang''s view, is bad times, and the fact that every investor''s bad times are somewhat different. The notion that bad times are paramount is the guiding principle of the book, which offers a new approach to the age-old problem of where do you put your money? Years of experience, both as a finance professor and as a consultant, have led Ang to see that the traditional approach, with its focus on asset classes, is too crude and ultimately too costly to ...

Over 50 years ago, astronomers launched the world''s first orbiting telescope. This allowed them to gaze further into outer space and examine anything that appears in the sky above our heads, from comets and planets to galaxy clusters and stars. Since then, almost 100 space telescopes have been launched from Earth and are orbiting our planet, with 26 still active and relaying information back to us. As a result of these space-based instruments, such as NASA''s iconic Hubble Space Telescope, we know much more about the universe than we did half a century ago. But why is Hubble, orbiting just 540 kilometres above the Earth, so much more effective than a ground-based telescope? How can a glorified camera tell us not only what distant objects look like, but their detailed chemical composition and three-dimensional structure as well? In Eyes in the Sky, science writer Andrew May takes us on a journey into space to answer these questions and more. Looking at the development of revolutionary instruments, such as Hubble and the James Webb Space Telescope, May explores how such technology has helped us understand the evolution of the Universe.

Brilliant brothers Langley and Homer Collyer are born into bourgeois New York comfort, their home a mansion on upper Fifth Avenue, their future rosy. But before he is out of his teens Homer begins to lose his sight, Langley returns from the war with his lungs seared by gas, and when both of their parents die, they seem perilously ill-equipped to deal with the new era.As romantic Homer and eccentric Langley construct a life on the fringes of society, they hold fast to their principle of self-reliance. But they are mocked and spied on, and despite wanting nothing more than to shut out the world, the epic events of the century flow through their housebound lives as they struggle to survive and create meaning for themselves.

Now with a new chapter.The official inside story of the life, death and remarkable discovery of history''s most controversial monarch.On 22 August 1485 Richard III was killed at Bosworth Field, the last king of England to die in battle. His victorious opponent, Henry Tudor (the future Henry VII), went on to found one of our most famous ruling dynasties. Richard''s body was displayed in undignified fashion for two days in nearby Leicester and then hurriedly buried in the church of the Greyfriars. Fifty years later, at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries, the king''s grave was lost - its contents believed to be emptied into the river Soar and Richard III''s reputation buried under a mound of Tudor propaganda. Its culmination was Shakespeare''s compelling portrayal of a deformed and murderous villain, written over a hundred years after Richard''s death. Now - in an incredible find - Richard III''s remains have been uncovered beneath a car park in Leicester. The King''s Grave traces this remarkable journey.

Audiokniha: Když v podhůří Appalačských hor zmizí za záhadných okolností církevní sbor, dávají bizarní stopy krveprolití tušit, že tuto tragédii má na svědomí snad sám ďábel. FBI má ovšem eso v rukávu – agentku Jessicu Blackwoodovou, bývalou nadanou kouzelnici z proslulé dynastie iluzionistů, která přednedávnem vyřešila případ tajemného Čaroděje a která díky svému nadání i zkušenostem dokáže rozpoznat, když věci nejsou takové, jaké se zdají být. Jessica je přesvědčená, že klíčem k záhadě je stará magnetofonová kazeta, a rozplétáním událostí, jež jsou na nahrávce zachycené, odhalí něco hodně znepokojivého – čin s dalekosáhlými důsledky. Mladá agentka se pouští po stopách zla, vedoucích ze Západní Virginie do Mexika, Miami, a dokonce až do posvátných síní Vatikánu, aby zastavila chladnokrevného vraha, posedlého smrtelným hříchem… „Svižný thriller, v němž jsou iluze zbraněmi dobra i zla.“ – Publishers Weekly. „Zápletka, která má spád, a inteligentní hlavní hrdinka ‒ to jsou ingredience adrenalinového příběhu s nečekaným zvratem.

Pravidelně se teď také radí se svým excentrickým dědečkem, někdejším skvělým kouzelníkem, jehož vnímá jako svého učitele, přestože ho kdysi nemohla vystát. Zničehonic se ovšem rutinní sledovačka změní v drama a Jessica musí bojovat o život, když se na místě objeví vyšinutá žena s dítětem v náručí a vyhrožuje, že ho zabije. Téhož dne se krátce po silném zemětřesení, které zasáhne východní pobřeží, začne po internetu šířit podivné video, na němž fyzik Peter Devon, nositel Nobelovy ceny, který už je však osm let po smrti, předpovídá místo i datum zemětřesení. A nedlouho poté je nalezena mrtvola neznámé ženy, která popisem odpovídá útočnici, s níž se Jessica střetla. Vyšetřování série zdánlivě nesouvisejících, ale stejně tak bizarních a temných zločinů zavede Jessicu do coloradské pouště a do vísky, po níž se jednoduše slehla zem, a mladá agentka zjišťuje, že se bude muset popasovat s něčím chmurnějším a mocnějším, než by kdokoliv čekal.

Ide o jednu z najdôležitejších diskusií v súčasnej cirkvi. A najkontroverznejších. Andrew Marin do nej vnáša svieži, vľúdny a novátorský hlas. Nevníma túto tému len ako nejakú pálčivú „otázku“ – vidí za ňou tvár, priateľa, Božie dieťa. Vidí za ňou Ježiša, ktorého láska je pre mnohých ťažko uchopiteľná, pretože u jeho nasledovníkov sa stretli s niečím iným.Andrew nám pripomína, že či už sme ladení konzervatívne alebo liberálne, môžeme mať skvelé myšlienky, a predsa byť krutí a samospravodliví. To, že sme kresťania, však ľudia nespoznajú podľa toho, čo citujeme, ale podľa našej lásky.Na konci knihy vás Andrew nebude žiadať, aby ste súhlasili s jeho názormi na gejskú a lesbickú orientáciu alebo životný štýl. Vlastne vás nezahrnie ani množstvom polemických názorov. Pokúsi sa pomôcť vám pochopiť, čo sa naučil počúvaním s otvoreným a chápavým srdcom voči lesbám a gejom. A tiež sa pokúsi pomôcť vám reagovať na gejov a lesby vo vašom svete zrelšie a chápavejšie. Na záver vás požiada, aby ste sa zhodli na jednej hlavnej veci: že pre skutočných Ježišových nasledovníkov je jedinou správnou cestou orientácia a životný štýl lásky.Brian McLarenAndrew Marin je prezidentom a zakladateľom The Marin Foundation.

Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it.The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history--including the first murder, Cain''s killing of his brother, Abel--and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.To make beauty out of the world as it is--shot through with evil and injustice and suffering--is the task not just of the artist but, Klavan argues, of every life rightly lived.
