  How the Aussie economy got hooked on the world's dirtiest cash. 
    
  Longlisted for a 2022 Walkley Award and earning the author the 2022 Financial Crime Fighter Award. 
  In today's ruthless world of organised crime, the best criminals aren't foolish enough to steal money out of banks. They wear tailored suits, carry briefcases, and discreetly slip money into banks.  
  Bigwigs, oligarchs and crime syndicates running drugs, trafficking guns and people, arming terrorists and subverting government controls are desperate to put a legitimate face on their wealth. Washing dirty money, moving it around the globe, making it look legitimate is where the action is for both criminals and the authorities chasing them. 
  Australia is awash with dirty money. It flows through our economy, keeps banks running, powers big business, puts coffee on restaurant tables, seeps into clubs, pubs, sport, the art world and anywhere that value is moved. It infiltrates real estate, costs billions in policing, and takes a terrible toll on Australian lives. What law enforcement agencies might lack in legislation and political will they make up for with sheer resourcefulness. When they can't get at the masterminds and bigwigs, they have honed tactics that intercept the flow of illicit cash and aim to drive a wedge between crooks and their ill-gotten wealth. 
  In The Lucky Laundry, financial crime expert Nathan Lynch delves deep inside this hidden world to explain how dark money has infected the lives of ordinary people - and tainted Australian democracy. He opens the curtain on the hidden world of financial intelligence, where crooks and spooks play a cat-and-mouse game inside the world's black money markets. 
  Enter the realm of the agents and undercover operatives who defend our democracy against the corrosive force of billions of dirty dollars.

  Mission - Jimmy Stewart and the...

  In March 1941, Jimmy Stewart, America’s boy next door and recent Academy Award winner, left fame and fortune behind and joined the United States Army Air Corps to fulfill his family mission and serve his country. He rose from private to colonel and participated in twenty often-brutal World War II combat missions over Germany and France. In mere months, the war took away his boyish looks as he faced near-death experiences and the loss of men under his command. The war finally won, he returned home with millions of other veterans to face an uncertain future, suffering what we now know as PTSD. Younger stars like Gregory Peck were now getting roles that might have been Stewart’s, and he didn’t know if he would ever work in Hollywood again. Then came It’s a Wonderful Life. 
  For the next half century, Stewart refused to discuss his combat experiences and took the story of his service to the grave. Mission presents the first in-depth look at Stewart’s life as a squadron commander in the skies over Germany, his return to Hollywood, and the changed man who embarked on production of America’s most beloved holiday classic. 
  Author Robert Matzen sifted through thousands of Air Force combat reports and the Stewart personnel files; interviewed surviving aviators who flew with Stewart; visited the James Stewart Papers at Brigham Young University; flew in the cockpits of the B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator; and walked the earth of air bases in England used by Stewart in his combat missions of 1943 through 1945. What emerges in Mission is the story of a Jimmy Stewart you never knew until now—a story more fantastic than any he brought to the screen.

  The Enchiridion - What Depends...

  Elizabeth Carter, Epictetus

  In this classic of stoic philosophy, Epictetus gives short rules for living a well-ordered life, defined by knowing what is in your control and not getting upset about what isn't. Compiled by his student Arrian from classroom lectures, it distills a lifetime of ethical teaching into fifty-two short precepts. In true Stoci fashion, there's no metaphysics, cosmology, or fluff, just clear nd simple rules for living a considered and well-balanced life. 
  The basic principle is is simple: separate what depends on you from what doesn't. Epictetus says you should focus on the things that are on your side, like judgment, impulse, desire, and aversion, and ignore or rise above the things that are not on your side, like body, property, reputation, office, and death itself. Everything outside your will is “indifferent”—not because it lacks value, but because it's not in your control. If it's not down to you, why worry about it? He says we should treat any disturbance we can't control as a mistake in our own reasoning, then to correct that mistake on the spot. 
  The Enchiridion proposes that when someone insults you, you should remember that they judge appearances, not truth. When a loved one travels or dies, remind yourself that departure is part of nature. When desire pulls you toward a goal, pause and examine the cost of being disappointed. When you lose something, say simply that it's been 'returned', not lost. 
  This Stoic handbook has influenced major figures for millennia. After influencing Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, it was referenced by Michel de Montaigne and Blaise Pascal, carried on his military campaigns by Frederick the Great, and went on to profoundly influence the works of Matthew Arnold and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Even now influences the approach of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
