  Distress Investing is a comprehensive guide to distress investing around the world. Increasingly, corporate rehabilitation is more interesting than corporate liquidation to governments and capital markets. And increasingly a mezzanine industry of mutual funds, hedge funds, and private investors has stepped up to fill the role of the traditional corporate lender. This book covers distress investing from theoretical underpinnings to practical applications. It features cases studies of some of the biggest distress investing situations including Kmart and Pacific Gas & Electric. From the recent changes to U.S. bankruptcy code to creditor rights to cash bailouts, readers will learn how to analyze distressed situations including pricing issues, arbitrage opportunities, political and tax disadvantages to deal expenses and reorganization funding plans. Written by the leading practitioner of distress investing and co-authored by teaching academics, this book is certain to become the bible on the topic for professional investors and students.

  With In the Black, T. Dallas Smith identifies the centrality of honest and open relationships to success within the world of high-dollar commercial real estate deals. His advice to “build relationships before you need them” is complemented by personal stories highlighting the importance of identifying one’s advocates. Smith is keen to recognize the people — some of them sense-making and some of them unexpected — who helped lift him up in a field the primary practice of which has been to reject diversity among its practitioners. Smith shows how making one’s way in an industry that has historically rejected Black men and women may be challenging but is in no way impossible. His own story is proof that one can both be a trailblazer and use one’s hard-won position to open doors for others.

  Why are so many fewer women than men writing business books about their knowledge, experience and expertise? Maybe for the same reasons that fewer women than men start their own businesses: we have less confidence in our own abilities, are more risk averse, and have to factor in caring responsibilities; we are also taken less seriously by society and its organisations, and lack role models, mentors and networks. Author, publisher and book mentor Lucy McCarraher is on a mission to change this because, with the odds stacked against them, writing and publishing their own book could be of particular benefit to women entrepreneurs. In A Book of One's Own, fifty women authors share their experience with Lucy, who defines ten women archetypes, and explains: The conscious and unconscious bias against women and how to challenge it The fears and anxieties most women share, and how to turn them into assets Why writing your book will benefit you, your business, your family and your gender How to plan and write your book with least disruption to your life and business How to publish and promote your book without feeling pushy, for impact, income and influence

  This is a 2-book combo, which has the following titles: 
    
    
  Book 1: This book can help you save time and money! 
    
  When doing taxes, accounting, or income statements, many people are puzzled. It starts with knowing what is what: the definitions. Then, filling out the balance sheets and the numbers, can be an equally complicated task as well. And finally, most people want to get the most out of their business or salary: The highest return, the lowest costs, and the lowest amount of taxes paid. 
    
  All of these concerns are real and they won’t go away on their own. But at least, with a book like this, you can take one step in the right direction. 
    
  This book’s aim is to teach you some of those necessary definitions, to break down what they mean, and to become more familiar with doing general accounting. 
    
  If this is what you’ve been looking for, then I encourage you to pick up the book and start reading or listening to it. 
    
    
    
    
  Book 2: This guide covers a whole range of topics related to doing your accounting tasks and numbers properly. Such topics include: 
    
  Netting 
  Advance payments 
  Liquidation preference 
  Rollover risk 
  Leasebacks 
  Gearing 
  Liens 
  Net interest margins 
  Parallel loans 
  Defeasance 
    
  Many other words and their meanings will also be addressed. If you want to understand those metrics better, this book will be a great tool for you to become acquainted with the terminology and use of these issues.
