Business Adventures by John Brooks Pdf

'The best business book I've ever read.' Bill Gates, Wall Street Journal 'The Michael Lewis of his day.' New York Times What do the $350 million Ford Motor Company disaster known as the Edsel, the fast and incredible rise of Xerox, and the unbelievable scandals at General Electric and Texas Gulf Sulphur have in common? Each is an example of how an iconic company was defined by a particular moment of fame or notoriety. These notable and fascinating accounts are as relevant today to understanding the intricacies of corporate life as they were when the events happened. Stories about Wall Street are infused with drama and adventure and reveal the machinations and volatile nature of the world of finance. John Brooks's insightful reportage is so full of personality and critical detail that whether he is looking at the astounding market crash of 1962, the collapse of a well-known brokerage firm, or the bold attempt by American bankers to save the British pound, one gets the sense that history really does repeat itself. This business classic written by longtime New Yorker contributor John Brooks is an insightful and engaging look into corporate and financial life in America.

Amazing Mistresses - A short eBook by Charles Margerison Pdf

This unique collection of audio stories from the Amazing People Club reveals the stories of some amazing mistresses and in doing so, it turns the traditional concept of a mistress on its head. Meet controversial Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre's lover who wrote numerous influential books and papers, and challenged what was seen as the woman's role on a number of levels. Come 'face-to-face' with Emilie du Chatelet, the mistress of Voltaire. Du Chatelet clearly used her gender to her advantage and also defied convention. Marina Gamba is relatively unknown, but had three illegitimate children with Galileo the great scientist. Also, hear the story of Madame de Pompadour who rose from a relatively unassuming life to be the undisputed mistress of King Louis XV and held a very influential position behind the scenes at court. Each of these amazing women took risks and negotiated their personal lives in such a way that enabled them to live extraordinary lives. Each story comes to life through BioViews®. These are short biographical narratives, similar to interviews. They provide an easy way of learning about amazing people who made major contributions and changed our world.
