  The advertising industry has reached a critical, even dangerous point in its development – agencies destroy themselves by doing increased work for declining fees – so what are the logical consequences of the failure to act? Growing workloads and declining fees have created a ‘recipe for disaster’. For the first time, Michael Farmer offers a solution to avoid this seemingly inevitable disaster. This book offers the world’s first effective definition of “the real agency problem”. Once the problem is understood, then the author offers corrective solutions. This book is a call to action for the 21st century breed of ‘mad men’, to outline the industry problems and encourages agencies and their clients to take management actions to keep this disaster at bay. These actions form the basis of a strategic response by agency CEOs as well as corporate chief marketing officers.

  Fraudcoin - 1000 Years with...

  Fraudcoin is an excellent book exploring the role of inflation on politics and world history. Inflation is largely a political decision that impacts all aspects of society and can bring down mighty empires, yet there is little debate about why inflation occurs and the immense repercussions. This book is an important contribution toward educating the public that the destructive power of inflation is not an unfortunate act of nature, but the result of reckless policy. 
  Glenn Diesen, Professor, University of South-Eastern Norway, Department of Business, History and Social Sciences 
  This is an incredibly important book. It lays out the story of the inflation policy in a clear, precise, and easy-to-understand way. It is absolutely necessary for a healthy society to have healthy money, but that will not happen until most people understand what sound money is, and why the inflation policy creates sick money.

  Rune Østgård’s easy-to-read book explains what inflation is and how it affects the society. 
  The book takes us through 1000 Years of Inflation as a Policy, beginning with the Viking age and King Harald Hardrada, who introduced the death penalty for those who did not accept his coins as payment. 
  With lessons learned from the historical narrative, it is easy to join the author on the ‘journey of money’ through modern society, as he demonstrates how inflation redistributes wealth from the working and middle classes to the upper class, speculators, and the state, and away from the countryside and into the big cities. 
  The book includes a discussion on several issues related to monetary policy, including national security, cryptocurrency, saving and investment, and if it is correct to say that “a little inflation is good for the economy” and that “our system is based on trust”.

  The Holodomor, a man-made famine that devastated Ukraine between 1932 and 1933, has its roots in the policies of the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin. While the famine itself was a tragedy of immense proportions, its causes can be traced to the larger political and economic strategies of the Soviet regime. 
  The Soviet Union, in its quest for rapid industrialization, implemented harsh agricultural policies, which included forced collectivization. The idea was to consolidate small farms into larger collective farms, thereby increasing agricultural output and facilitating the redistribution of food to feed the growing industrial centers. However, this policy had disastrous effects on Ukraine, where agriculture was the backbone of the economy. 
  Collectivization forced Ukrainian peasants, who were traditionally independent farmers, into state-run collective farms. This not only disrupted agricultural production but also led to widespread resistance, as many Ukrainians viewed this as a direct attack on their way of life. The Soviets, determined to break this resistance, responded with brutal force. Those who opposed collectivization were often punished or executed, and the fertile lands of Ukraine were systematically confiscated. 
  Stalin’s government implemented the policy of grain requisitioning, where large amounts of grain were forcibly taken from Ukraine to support other areas of the Soviet Union. Ukraine, known as the “breadbasket” of the Soviet Union, became the primary target of these requisitions. The grain was not only taken for export but also used to fuel the industrial ambitions of the Soviet state. This left the Ukrainian population without sufficient food for survival, pushing them into a state of extreme deprivation.

  In Love as a Change Strategy, the team behind the Wall Street Journal bestseller Love as a Business Strategy is back―with an urgent, deeply human follow-up. This isn't another dry playbook on change management. It's a wake-up call for leaders who are tired of fear-fueled cultures, toxic "transformation," and surface-level solutions. 
   
  The truth? Most change fails because people resist what they don't trust―and leaders aren't willing to change themselves first. That's where this book begins. 
   
  Part memoir, part practical guide, and part leadership journey, Love as a Change Strategy takes listeners inside one company's brutally honest transformation story. Through powerful storytelling and actionable tools, the authors reveal what happens when you lead change from a place of love―not fear. 
   
  Inside, you'll discover why most change efforts collapse―and how to fix them; real stories of failure, ego, and redemption from the authors' own leadership team; a people-first framework to lead adaptive change in any organization; the change principles that build trust, accountability, and forward momentum; and how to confront resistance, navigate chaos, and make love your change strategy.
