What I Learned Losing a Million Dollars - Brendan Moynihan, Jim Paul
Jim Paul's meteoric rise took him from a small town in Northern Kentucky to governor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, yet he lost it all-his fortune, his reputation, and his job-in one fatal attack of excessive economic hubris. In this honest, frank analysis, Paul and Brendan Moynihan revisit the events that led to Paul's disastrous decision and examine the psychological factors behind bad financial practices in several economic sectors. This book-winner of a 2014 Axiom Business Book award gold medal-begins with the unbroken string of successes that helped Paul achieve a jet-setting lifestyle and land a key spot with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. It then describes the circumstances leading up to Paul's $1.6 million loss and the essential lessons he learned from it-primarily that, although there are as many ways to make money in the markets as there are people participating in them, all losses come from the same few sources. Investors lose money in the markets either because of errors in their analysis or because of psychological barriers preventing the application of analysis. While all analytical methods have some validity and make allowances for instances in which they do not work, psychological factors can keep an investor in a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

What I Learned About Investing from Darwin - Pulak Prasad
The investment profession is in a state of crisis. The vast majority of equity fund managers are unable to beat the market over the long term, which has led to massive outflows from active funds to passive funds. Where should investors turn in search of a new approach?Pulak Prasad offers a philosophy of patient long-term investing based on an unexpected source: evolutionary biology. He draws key lessons from core Darwinian concepts, mixing vivid examples from the natural world with compelling stories of good and bad investing decisions—including his own. How can bumblebees’ survival strategies help us accept that we might miss out on Tesla? What does an experiment in breeding tame foxes reveal about the traits of successful businesses? Why might a small frog’s mimicry of the croak of a larger rival shed light on the signs of corporate dishonesty?Informed by successful evolutionary strategies, Prasad outlines his counterintuitive principles for long-term gain. He provides three mantras of investing: Avoid big risks; buy high quality at a fair price; and don’t be lazy—be very lazy. Prasad makes a persuasive case for a strategy that rules out the vast majority of investment opportunities and advocates permanently owning high-quality businesses.Combining punchy prose and ...

He’s out for the money, yes, but getting a little dirty with Nell doesn’t sound too bad either. Everyone knows he’s not the marrying kind, so it’s a good thing it’s just for show. God knows he’s the worst guy his pretty wife should pick for real.They have nothing in common, but if they want the grand prize, they’ll have to beat out eight other couples.

Lancastrians - Paul Salveson
A landmark new history of the great English county of Lancashire, exploring its people’s impact on Britain and beyond.This popular history explores the cultural heritage and identity of Lancashire, stretching from the Mersey to the Lake District. Paul Salveson charts the county’s transformation from a largely agricultural region noted for its religious learning into the Industrial Revolution’s powerhouse, as an emerging self-confident bourgeoisie drove economic growth. This capital boom came with a cultural blossoming, creating today’s Lancashire. Industrialists strongly committed to the arts endowed galleries and museums, producing a diverse world of science, technology, music and literature. Lancashire developed a distinct business culture, but this was also the birthplace of the world co-operative movement, and the heart of democracy campaigns including Chartism and women’s suffrage. Lancashire has generally welcomed incomers, who have long helped to inform its distinctive identity: fourteenth-century Flemish weavers; nineteenth-century Irish immigrants and Jewish refugees; and, more recently, ‘New Lancastrians’ from Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe. This long-overdue book explores contemporary Lancastrian culture, following modern upheavals and Lancashire’s fragmentation compared with its old rival Yorkshire. What future awaits the 6 million people of this rich historic region?

Journeys with Emperors - Gerald L. Kooyman, Jim Mastro
With stunning photographs from the ice edge, a firsthand account of a researcher’s time in Antarctica and of the perilous journeys of the world’s largest penguin species: the iconic emperor.  Nearly all emperor penguin colonies are extremely remote; of the sixty-six known, fewer than thirty have been visited by humans, and even fewer have been the subject of successful research programs. One of the largest known emperor penguin colonies is found on a narrow band of sea ice attached to the Antarctic continent. In Journeys with Emperors, Gerald L. Kooyman and Jim Mastro take us to this far-flung colony in the Ross Sea, showing us how scientists gained access to it, and what they learned while living among the penguins as they raised their chicks.  The primary mission was to record the birds’ activities at sea, and the data revealed important aspects of emperor penguin behavior and physiology: for instance, that in the course of hunting for food, some of the penguins dive to depths of greater than five hundred meters (a third of a mile, which is deeper than for any other diving bird).

Hitler - Brendan Simms
SHORTLISTED FOR THE MARK LYNTON HISTORY PRIZE 2020A DAILY TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR 2019A revelatory new biography of Adolf Hitler from the acclaimed historian Brendan SimmsAdolf Hitler is one of the most studied men in history, and yet the most important things we think we know about him are wrong. As Brendan Simms''s major new biography shows, Hitler''s main preoccupation was not, as widely believed, the threat of Bolshevism, but that of international capitalism and Anglo-America. These two fears drove both his anti-semitism and his determination to secure the ''living space'' necessary to survive in a world dominated by the British Empire and the United States. Drawing on new sources, Brendan Simms traces the way in which Hitler''s ideology emerged after the First World War. The United States and the British Empire were, in his view, models for Germany''s own empire, similarly founded on appropriation of land, racism and violence. Hitler''s aim was to create a similarly global future for Germany - a country seemingly doomed otherwise not just to irrelevance, but, through emigration and foreign influence, to extinction. His principal concern during the resulting cataclysm was not just what he saw as the clash between German and Jews, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Hitler. Nic menšího než celý svět - Brendan Simms
Přestože Adolf Hitler patří k nejlépe prostudovaným postavám historie, v tom nejdůležitějším, co si myslíme, že o něm víme, se mýlíme. Jak vysvětluje Brendan Simms, Hitler se navzdory všeobecně rozšířenému přesvědčení neobával ani tolik bolševismu, jako hrozby mezinárodního kapitalismu a moci angloamerického světa. Z těchto obav pak pramenil jeho antisemitismus i odhodlání zabezpečit Němcům "životní prostor" nezbytný pro přežití ve světě ovládaném Britským impériem a Spojenými státy. Brendan Simms nám s odkazem na nové prameny předkládá, jak se po 1. světové válce formovala Hitlerova ideologie. V jejím pojetí měly být nové Německé říši vzorem Spojené státy a Britské impérium, velmoci, které taktéž získaly svůj vliv pomocí rasismu, násilí a přisvojování si cizí půdy. Hitlerovým cílem bylo zajistit podobnou globální budoucnost i Německu, protože jinak se zdálo odsouzené nejen k bezvýznamnosti, ale kvůli emigraci a zahraničním vlivům i k vymření. Nová kniha Brendana Simmse jako první dopodrobna vysvětluje Hitlerovy názory a ukazuje, že i to nejvražednější chování má, tak jako vždy, svůj prapůvod v ideách.

Borstal Boy - Brendan Behan
''I have him bitched, balloxed and bewildered, for there''s a system and a science in taking the piss out of a screw and I''m a well-trained man at it.'' So writes Brendan Behan, poet, writer and literary legend, of the episode that coloured his life. Arrested in Liverpool as an agitator for the IRA, he was tried and sent to reform school. He was sixteen years old. The world he entered was brutal and coldly indifferent. Conditions were primitive, and violence simmered just below the surface. Yet Brendan Behan found something more positive than hate in Borstal: friendship, solidarity and healing flashes of kindness. Extraordinarily vivid, fluent, and moving, this is a superb and unforgettable piece of writing. Borstal Boy was adapted into a film in 2000.

Confessions Of An Irish Rebel - Brendan Behan
The immigration man read my deportation order, looked at it and handed it back to me. ''Are you Irish?'' he asked me. ''No'' I said ''as a matter of fact, I''m Yemenite Arab.'' Two detectives came forward who were evidently there to meet me. ''Apparently he is Brendan Behan,'' they said. The immigration officer shook my hand and his hard face softened. ''Cead mile failte romhat abhaile.'' (A hundred thousand welcomes home to you.) I could not answer. There are no words and it would be impertinence to try. I walked down the gangway. I was free. First published after Brendan Behan''s tragic death, Confessions of an Irish Rebel picks up where Borstal Boy left off. Not only is it the last instalment of a unique and unorthodox autobiography, but of a unique and unorthodox life that was as touched with genius as it was with doom.

How to Spend a Trillion Dollars - Rowan Hooper
If you had a trillion dollars and a year to spend it for the good of the world and the advancement of science, what would you do? It''s an unimaginably large sum, yet it''s only around one per cent of world GDP, and about the valuation of Google, Microsoft or Amazon. It''s a much smaller sum than the world found to bail out its banks in 2008 or deal with Covid-19.But what could you achieve with $1 trillion?You could solve the problem of the pandemic, for one, and eradicate malaria, and maybe cure all disease. You could end global poverty. You could settle on the Moon and explore the solar system. You could build a massive particle collider to probe the nature of reality like never before. You could build quantum computers, develop artificial intelligence, or increase human lifespan. You could even create a new life form.Or how about transitioning the world to clean energy? Or preserving the rainforests, or saving all endangered species? Maybe you could refreeze the melting Arctic, launch a new sustainable agricultural revolution, and reverse climate change?How to Spend a Trillion Dollars is the ultimate thought experiment but it is also a call to arms: these ...
