  Dubbed "CryptoDad" for his impassioned plea to Congress to acknowledge and respect cryptocurrencies as the inevitable product of a fast-growing technological wave and a free marketplace, Chris Giancarlo is considered one of "the most influential individuals in financial regulation." CryptoDad: The Fight for the Future of Money describes Giancarlo's own reckoning with the future of the global economy—at the intersection of markets, technology, and public policy—and lays out the fight for a Digital Dollar. 
   
   
   
  CryptoDad is Giancarlo's own personal story, detailing his forays into the world of Wallstreet to his tenure as the thirteenth chairman of the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), where he pushed for the agency to recognize the digitization of markets. His growing fame as a Twitter presence in this essential debate has given Giancarlo a platform to makes a case for the future of cryptocurrencies as the natural successor to America's current failing financial market infrastructure. 
   
   
   
  CryptoDad argues that the next digital wave will be the coming Internet of Value, where cryptocurrencies will do the Internet of Information did to immaterial things: make them accessible, distributable, and movable instantly across the globe. This book is an ideal introduction to the importance of technology in the marketplace.

  Urban policy and governance are central to shaping the future of cities worldwide. As urban areas continue to expand, the challenges faced by city leaders, policymakers, and residents grow ever more complex. Urban policy refers to the strategies, frameworks, and regulations that guide the development and management of cities. It encompasses everything from housing and infrastructure to social equity, environmental sustainability, and economic growth. Governance, on the other hand, focuses on the decision-making processes, institutions, and actors responsible for implementing these policies. Effective urban governance ensures that cities function smoothly and equitably while addressing the diverse needs of their populations. 
  The rapid pace of urbanization has been a defining feature of the 21st century, with over half of the world's population now living in cities. This urban shift presents numerous challenges, including overcrowding, resource scarcity, environmental degradation, and social inequality. However, it also creates opportunities for innovation and progress. A well-crafted urban policy can harness the potential of urbanization to improve quality of life, create economic opportunities, and foster sustainability. 
  Urban governance is shaped by various factors, including political, economic, and social dynamics. At its core, it involves coordinating efforts among multiple stakeholders, such as local governments, private sector entities, civil society groups, and international organizations. The collaboration between these actors is crucial to addressing the complex and interconnected issues that cities face. Effective governance must be inclusive, transparent, and accountable to ensure that all voices, particularly those of marginalized communities, are heard and considered in decision-making processes.

  The postman and the primary teacher, the midwife and the musician. Workers in shops, workers at sea. Solidarity with the Columbian farmer and the Palestinian fireman…
  Modern trade unionists in Scotland perform roles in every imaginable location and are drawn from all backgrounds. They campaign to win on issues facing the colleague next to them or a comrade thousands of miles away.
  'Mon the Workers tells their stories in their own words. It is a celebration of 125 years of the STUC, and a clarion call for the next generation to agitate, organise and win.
  This book demonstrates past achievements, explores the ideas trade unionists have fought for and rouses the movement towards future victories. 75 trade union members, reps and officials share experiences of union life from the anti-apartheid movement to Wick Wants Work. Alan McCredie's charismatic portraits of 50 other activists from the trade union movement provide a complementary visual narrative.
  This very human book pulses with the energy of Scotland's trade union movement, which has achieved so much and still has more to do.

  Collaborative Crisis Management...

  Two experienced corporate crisis advisors offer a thorough and approachable guide to successful crisis management from anticipation to resolution. 
    
  All organizations face crises from time to time, and at a time when news, information (or misinformation), and rumors can spread quickly, a timely and thoughtful response to a crisis, is critical. In this book, two industry insiders offer a primer on how organizational leadership should prepare for and handle crises. The steps, plans, and cautions they offer show how organizations can deal openly and honestly with challenges while continuing to survive and prosper. 
    
  Thomas A. Cole and Paul Verbinnen show how successful crisis management requires a multi-disciplined approach enacted collaboratively under strong leadership. Drawing on many real-world examples, they speak to not only what to do during a crisis, but also the need for preparedness and post-crisis follow-up. The book is organized around a broad range of discrete issues that need to be addressed in managing any crisis and provides the steps required to successfully address each of those issues. The authors urge crisis managers to focus attention equally on four phases of management: prepare, execute, recover, and then repeat (after reflecting on the results of the last crisis) with the next one. The emphasis is on preparation and planning, setting up the procedures, and organizing the teams that will respond to each crisis. 
    
  Unlike other crisis books that focus solely on communication, Collaborative Crisis Management goes further and in addition to communication, it discusses both the legal obligations and organizational challenges that accompany a crisis. The result is an indispensable guide for leaders, board members, and business students.
