Synopsis

Emile Gaboriau's 'Other People's Money' is a compelling novel that delves into the intricacies of financial crime and deception in 19th-century France. Gaboriau's unique narrative style combines elements of mystery and social commentary, making the book a gripping and thought-provoking read. The story follows the investigation of a fraudulent financial scheme, exposing the greed and moral corruption that permeated society during that era. Gaboriau skillfully weaves together plot twists and character development to create a captivating literary work that sheds light on the dark underbelly of society's obsession with wealth and power. 'Other People's Money' is not only a crime novel but also a commentary on the moral decay of society, challenging readers to reflect on the consequences of unchecked greed and ambition. Emile Gaboriau, known as one of the pioneers of detective fiction, draws inspiration from contemporary financial scandals and social injustices to craft a story that remains relevant today. Through his vivid storytelling and astute observations, Gaboriau paints a vivid portrait of a society plagued by corruption and deceit, inviting readers to consider the ethical implications of pursuing wealth at the expense of others. I highly recommend 'Other People's Money' to readers interested in exploring the intersection of crime, morality, and human nature in a historical context.

    The New Builders: Face to Face with the True Future of Business delivers a powerful argument for the empowerment and support of our female and BIPOC founders.Today's entrepreneurs don't look like those of the past. They are increasingly Black, brown, female, and older than you might expect them to be. But they're not getting the support they need to succeed in rebuilding America, because our business culture has become so consumed with celebrating size above all else. In this book, the distinguished authors explore the indelible value of small business in America and the future of sustainable business. In The New Builders, you'll learn: Who are the fastest growing groups of entrepreneurs? What are they working on, and what drives them?; the real engine that drove Silicon Valley's entrepreneurs; the depth and extent to which entrepreneurs and small businesses are woven through our country's history and the ways we have forgotten women and people of color who owned small businesses in the past; how we're increasingly afraid to fail; the role small businesses are playing saving the wilderness, small towns, and redlined communities; what we can do to turn the decline in entrepreneurship around, especially by supporting the people who are courageously starting small companies today; and more.

    How to Live on 24 Hours a Day...

    Are you really 'living', or just existing?  Do you want to improve yourself or just continue to muddle through?  Do you use the time given you each day, or just throw most of it away?  These questions Bennett asks each of us and for those who want to really live and learn, offers very valuable advice. Time is the most precious of commodities states Bennett in this book. Many books have been written on how to live on a certain amount of money each day. And he added that the old adage "time is money" understates the matter, as time can often produce money, but money cannot produce more time. Time is extremely limited, and Bennett urged others to make the best of the time remaining in their lives.    Which of us lives on twenty-four hours a day? And when I say "lives," I do not mean exists, nor "muddles through." Which of us is free from that uneasy feeling that the "great spending departments" of his daily life are not managed as they ought to be? [...] Which of us is not saying to himself -- which of us has not been saying to himself all his life: "I shall alter that when I have a little more time"? We never shall have any more time. We have, and we have always had, all the time there is. - Summary from the author's preface and the reader.
