  A history of the struggle for debtors’ rights from the Civil War to the Great Depression 
   
  What can be taken from someone who has borrowed money and cannot repay? What do the victims of misfortune owe to their lenders, and what can they keep for themselves? The answers to those questions, immensely important for debtors, creditors, and society at large, have changed over time. The Price of Misfortune examines the cause of debtors’ rights in the modern United States and the struggles of reformers who fought to establish financial freedoms in law. 
    
  Daniel Platt shows how, in the wake of the Civil War, a range of advocates drew potent analogies between slavery, imprisonment for debt, and the experiences of wage garnishment and property foreclosure. He traces the ways those analogies were used to campaign for bold new protections for debtors, keeping them secure in their labor, property, and personhood. Yet, as Platt demonstrates, those reforms tended to assume as their ideal borrower someone who was white, propertied, and male. In subsequent decades, the emancipatory promise of debtors’ rights would be tested as women, wage earners, and African Americans seized on their language to challenge other structural inequalities: the dependency of marriage, the exploitation of industrial capitalism, and the oppression of Jim Crow. By reconstructing these forgotten developments—and recovering the experiences of indebted farmwives, sharecroppers, and wage workers—The Price of Misfortune narrates a new history of inequality, coercion, and law amid the early financialization of American capitalism.

  Every day begins with the same challenge: too many tasks on your to-do list and not enough time to accomplish them. Perhaps you tell yourself to just buckle down and get it all done—skip lunch, work a longer day. Maybe you throw your hands up, recognize you can't do it all, and just begin fighting the biggest fire or greasing the squeakiest wheel. 
   
   
   
  And yet you know how good it feels on those days when you're working at peak productivity, taking care of difficult and meaty projects while also knocking off the smaller tasks that have been hanging over your head forever. Those are the times when your day didn't run you—you ran your day. To have more of those days more often, you need to discover what works for you given your strengths, your preferences, and the things you must accomplish. 
   
   
   
  Whether you're an assistant or the CEO, whether you've been in the workforce for forty years or are just starting out, this guide will help you be more productive. You'll discover different ways to motivate yourself to work when you really don't want to; take on less, but get more done; preserve time for your most important work; improve your focus; make the most of small pockets of time between meetings; set boundaries with colleagues—without alienating them; and take time off without tearing your hair out.

  Physician Underdog - Leveraging...

  Several years ago as a practicing physician, I was struck by a feeling that I could more broadly impact the world around me. This led me to study, question, discover, and eventually enter the world of investing and entrepreneurship. I co-founded a healthcare service company that is now in multiple states, and also co-founded a venture capital firm that I run full time. These endeavors have since employed thousands, yielded millions in revenues and returns, and influenced people to realize their full potential. 
  Along the way, I shared my journey with fellow physicians and investors. Often they would comment on how encouraging it was to know they could think bigger, or differently, or otherwise outside the box. This was the inspiration for Physician Underdog, written with the hope to inspire others, and hopefully lead a few people to think on a broader scale. 
  While I am still very much a medical professional, my personal mission now is to share innovative ways for other physicians to fulfill their goals, satisfy their ambitions, and be of service. I hope this information inspires you to explore endless possibilities in the spirit of making the world a much more positive place. 
  *This is for you if you are: 
  A physician entrepreneur 
  A leader who wants to create an impact within your organization 
  An investor who wants to make money while driving purpose 
  A burned-out physician who wants help 
  A burned-out professional who wants help 
  Someone who wants to know why physicians and health care providers are burning out 
  Someone who feels you have a ceiling over your career 
  Someone who wants to excel beyond your perceived potential 
  Someone who thinks being a physician has only one designated pathway 
  Are dedicating your career to caring for others, but also need to find ways take care of yourself
