The Art of Brevity - Crafting...

Grant Faulkner, Megan Giddings

With elegant prose, deep readings of other writers, and scaffolded writing exercises, The Art of Brevity takes the listener on a lyrical exploration of compact storytelling, guiding listeners to heighten their awareness of not only what appears on the page but also what doesn't.

The Politics of Digital...

Felix Heidenreich, Florian...

Digitization is transforming our world economically, culturally, and psychologically. The influx of new forms of communication, networking, and business opportunities, as well as new types of distraction, self-observation, and control into our societies represents an epochal challenge. Following Bernard Stiegler's concept of pharmacology, Felix Heidenreich and Florian Weber-Stein propose to view these new forms as digital pharmaka. Properly dosed, they can enable new self-relationships and forms of sociality; in the case of overdose, however, there is a risk of intoxication.
In this essay, Felix Heidenreich, Florian Weber-Stein, and, in a detailed interview, Bernard Stiegler analyze this complex change in our world and develop new skills to use digital pharmaka.

A NEW MONEY STORY: The Beliefs, Behaviors, and Brain Science to Rewire for Wealth 
Book Summary 
Neuroscientists estimate that over 90 percent of our operating systems—beliefs, behaviors, patterns—are 
unconscious. Since the surface story determines less than 10 percent of our decisions, how can we 
illuminate the shadow story responsible for over 90 percent of what we do each day? Once we 
systematically understand our relationship with money, our individual meanings and symbolism, can we 
overcome the mind and brain’s resistance to change? 
A NEW MONEY STORY: The Beliefs, Behaviors, and Brain Science to Rewire for Wealth will help you 
recognize, own, and assess each component of your money story. You can then decide what to change, 
map changes, author new storylines, and even program the changes to transform core identity to make it 
complete and lasting. This systematic stepwise process to inform and strategically catalyze behavior 
change will rewrite mind software and revise brain hardware of money stories as they are interwoven with 
life, wellness, relationship, and career stories. These behavior, mind, and brain changes offer long-term 
successful strategies, and even can crystallize a vision of your future self to significantly affect positive 
money decisions.

History of the Netherlands -...

Kelly Mass

This book consists of two titles, which are real even in the history of the Netherlands:
Battle of Waterloo - The Battle of Waterloo, fought on June 18, 1815, near the village of Waterloo in the United Kingdom of the Netherlands (present-day Belgium), was a decisive conflict that ended the Napoleonic Wars. The battle pitted the French army, led by Napoleon Bonaparte, against two powerful forces from the Seventh Coalition. One of these was a British-led coalition under the command of the Duke of Wellington, which included troops from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Hanover, Brunswick, and Nassau. The other force was a larger Prussian army commanded by Field Marshal Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher. Together, these forces effectively crushed Napoleon's ambitions and marked the final chapter in his reign. The battle was also known as the Battle of Mont Saint-Jean (to the French) or La Belle Alliance (to the Prussians).
Tulip Mania - Tulip Mania, often considered the first recorded speculative bubble in history, took place during the Dutch Golden Age in the early 17th century. This period saw some tulip bulbs, which had been newly introduced to Europe, achieve extraordinary prices. The peak of the tulip market occurred in 1634, with prices reaching unbelievable levels before plummeting drastically in February 1637. This event is frequently cited as an early example of an asset bubble, where the prices of goods diverged dramatically from their intrinsic value. The tulip mania of the 1630s remains one of the most notable cases of speculative fever in financial history.
