Summary

The Sneaker Empire explores the fascinating evolution of sneakers, transforming from simple athletic footwear into coveted status symbols influencing fashion, design, and business. The book examines the sneaker resale market, revealing insights into modern consumer culture, the power of branding, and the impact of design. Interestingly, celebrity endorsements and strategic scarcity have significantly propelled sneakers to their current status as highly desirable collectibles. The book approaches the sneaker phenomenon holistically, integrating design, business, and cultural perspectives.

 
Divided into three key sections, the book first investigates design elements influencing a sneaker's desirability. Next, it dissects business strategies employed by major brands, and finally, the world of sneaker reselling is explored, analyzing the dynamics of the secondary market. This journey provides a comprehensive account of the sneaker's rise.

    Principles of Economics was a leading economics textbook of Alfred Marshall (1842-1924), first published in 1890. Marshall began writing the Principles of Economics in 1881 and he spent much of the next decade at work on the treatise. His plan for the work gradually extended to a two-volume compilation on the whole of economic thought; the first volume was published in 1890 to worldwide acclaim that established him as one of the leading economists of his time. It brought the ideas of supply and demand, of marginal utility and of the costs of production into a coherent whole, and became the dominant economic textbook in England for a long period. The second volume, which was to address foreign trade, money, trade fluctuations, taxation, and collectivism, was never published at all. (Wikipedia)The recording is based on the eighth edition, published in 1920.

    This is the untold story of an epic theme park mania that roiled East Asia for three decades. 
    Everyone knows the economic version of the story: Japan, Korea, and China industrialized at lightning speed. These export powerhouse developed mighty infrastructure bases and global conglomerates the envy of the world. Their ascent to economic domination was uncannily sequential. 
    But fewer realize that each country's path to prosperity has also involved a meandering, hallucinatory path through a theme park. Beginning in the 1990s, Japan, Korea, and China were gripped by a feverish pursuit of theme park grandeur. Over the next 30 years, some of the largest, most fantastical wonderlands ever conceived were built, destroyed, and dreamed. 
    While all manias reveal human foibles and absurdity, this story is also a deeply human one about unbridled hope and staggering ambition.
