Sinossi

The classic of economics, first published in 1776.  According to Wikipedia: "Adam Smith (baptised 16 June 1723 – died 17 July 1790 [OS: 5 June 1723 – 17 July 1790]) was a Scottish social philosopher and a pioneer of political economy. One of the key figures of the Scottish Enlightenment, Smith is the author of The Theory of Moral Sentiments and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. The latter, usually abbreviated as The Wealth of Nations, is considered his magnum opus and the first modern work of economics. It earned him an enormous reputation and would become one of the most influential works on economics ever published. Smith is widely cited as the father of modern economics and capitalism."

    The author of cult classics The Pumpkin Plan and The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur offers a simple, counterintuitive cash management solution that will help small businesses break out of the doom spiral and achieve instant profitability. 
    Conventional accounting uses the logical (albeit, flawed) formula: sales - expenses = profit. The problem is, businesses are run by humans, and humans aren't always logical. Serial entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz has developed a behavioral approach to accounting to flip the formula: Sales - Profit = Expenses. Just as the most effective weight loss strategy is to limit portions by using smaller plates, Michalowicz shows that by taking profit first and apportioning only what remains for expenses, entrepreneurs will transform their businesses from cash-eating monsters to profitable cash cows. Using Michalowicz's Profit First system, listeners will learn that: 
    ●     Following four simple principles can simplify accounting and make it easier to manage a profitable business by looking at bank account balances. 
    ●     A small, profitable business can be worth much more than a large business surviving on its top line. 
    ●     Businesses that attain early and sustained profitability have a better shot at achieving long-term growth. 
    With dozens of case studies, practical step-by-step advice, and his signature sense of humor, Michalowicz has the game-changing road map for any entrepreneur to make money they always dreamed of.

    Welcome to explore the wonderful world of cannabis in the pathologies of the central nervous system! 
    The nervous system is a complex of specialized structures, consisting of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, which control and regulate the functioning of the various organs and systems, organize their interrelationship, and the relationship of the organism with the external environment. 
    The basic unit of the nervous system is the nerve cell known as the neuron and its numerous branching fibers called dendrites. The human brain has approximately 100 billion neurons. 
    There is evidence of cannabinoids' therapeutic applications throughout history. Ancient Chinese culture noted the cannabis plant's benefits for various ailments; centuries later, the Arabs promoted its use in numerous medical treatises. At that time, they had no idea how the plant's substances exerted their effect. But, facts proved significant improvements when treating various symptoms and pathologies. Thanks to the constant advances in contemporary medicine, the mechanisms by which these substances exert their function are increasingly better understood. 
    Interest in the biological properties of cannabis increased significantly in the early 1990s with the discovery of specific receptors for its components in the Central Nervous System. To this day, cannabinoid receptors are known as CB1 and CB2. They are in the neuronal cell membrane, particularly in the presynaptic terminals, and are part of the family of G-protein-coupled receptors. They are linked to potassium channel activation and calcium channel inhibition. 
    This audiobook will explore in more detail how cannabinoids may serve as potential neuroprotective agents. Especially in different neurodegenerative diseases such as cerebral ischemia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and ALS. All thanks to their ability to control oxidative stress, inflammation, and excitotoxicity present in them.

    This is the fourth volume of Dr. Justin Glenn’s comprehensive history that traces the “Presidential line” of the Washingtons. Volume One began with the immigrant John Washington, who settled in Westmoreland Co., Va., in 1657, married Anne Pope, and became the great-grandfather of President George Washington. It continued the record of their descendants for a total of seven generations. Volume Two highlighted notable members of the next eight generations of John and Anne Washington’s descendants, including General George S. Patton, author Shelby Foote, and actor Lee Marvin. Volume Three traced the ancestry of the early Virginia members of this “Presidential Branch” back in time to the aristocracy and nobility of England and continental Europe.  Volume Four resumes the family history where Volume One ended. It presents Generation Eight of the immigrant John Washington’s descendants, containing nearly 7,000 descendants. Future volumes will trace generations nine through fifteen, making a total of over 63,000 descendants. Although structured in a genealogical format for the sake of clarity, this is no bare bones genealogy but a true family history with over 1,200 detailed biographical narratives. These in turn strive to convey the greatness of the family that produced not only The Father of His Country but many others, great and humble, who struggled to build that country.  Volume Four, Part One covers the descendants of the immigrant John Washington’s child Lawrence Washington. Volume Four, Part Two covers the descendants of the Immigrant’s children John Washington, Jr., and Anne (Washington) Wright.
