Sinopse

The Auction Psychology explores the captivating intersection of psychology and economics within auction environments, revealing how psychological biases significantly impact buyer behavior and bidding strategies. It highlights that understanding these biases is crucial for success, challenging the traditional view of purely rational economic decision-making. For instance, the book delves into why people often overspend in auctions due to "bidding escalation," driven by the thrill of competition and fear of loss, while also examining the "winner's curse," where the winning bidder often overpays.

 
The book progresses from foundational concepts in behavioral economics and social psychology to specific biases like the sunk cost fallacy and herd behavior, illustrating their effects through case studies and research. What makes this book unique is its practical, actionable approach. It provides strategies to mitigate biases and leverage them for advantage, rather than just focusing on theoretical economic models.

 
Ultimately, The Auction Psychology aims to equip readers with the knowledge to navigate auctions more effectively, whether in business procurement, investment scenarios, or online marketplaces. By understanding the emotional and cognitive forces at play, participants can make more informed decisions and improve their bidding outcomes in competitive environments.

Who Are the Russians?

Alla Sergueeva

“An exceptional study. The author of the book has had the audacity to approach Russian chaos... armed with her desire to prove that the country is by no means a madhouse but simply an immense space, difficult to access for the outsider who is unfamiliar with Russian traditions, history and mentality.” Lyubova Klobukova, Izvestia. 
 
“Alla Sergueeva’s book is highly topical. The author loves Russia, cares about its people, is proud of its history, culture and science.” Vladimir Nogovsky, Russian Thought.
 
Should a foreigner accept an invitation to the Russian baths? How many glasses of vodka should you drink in one go before trying to refuse? Why do Russians endure life at great sacrifice? What is “Russian happiness” made of? And above all, what’s new in 21st-century Russia?
Over the past fifteen years, the “mysterious Slavic soul” has undergone unprecedented metamorphosis. It was time to draw up an exhaustive inventory of the new way of life and psychology of the Russians.

American Hero - The Life and...

Charles Whiting

As a teenager Audie Murphy left his home in Texas to join in the fight against the Nazis. By the end of the war, he had fought in the bloody battle of Anzio, helped liberate Rome, marched his way across France, repelled German counterattacks in Alsace, before finishing in Germany. He was wounded three times, killed over two hundred enemies, and won every medal for valor that the United States had to offer. 
 
 
 
Charles Whiting charts Murphy's journey through World War Two, shedding light on his courageous actions. 
 
 
 
Yet what price did young Audie Murphy pay for becoming America's most decorated soldier of the Second World War? 
 
 
 
Rather than simply focusing on Murphy's achievements in combat, Whiting also explores his life after the war when he struggled with post-traumatic stress disorder, addiction problems, and even twenty years after the war slept with the lights on and a loaded Walther pistol beneath his pillow. 
 
 
 
American Hero draws upon numerous contemporary sources and a wealth of information drawn from interviews with Murphy's friends and comrades to provide insight into the rise and fall of Audie Murphy.

Reeling in the Queers - Tales of...

Páraic Kerrigan

Marking fifty years of the founding of an LGBTQ rights movement in Ireland, Reeling in the Queers explores the lesser-known stories of the fight for LGBTQ rights since 1974, beyond decriminalisation and Marriage Equality. From 1990s boy bands to the AIDS priest, Fr Bernárd Lynch, from the Belfast Lesbian Line to proud parenting, from the earliest Pride events to the last days of Alternative Miss Ireland, fourteen distinct moments map the changing social and cultural landscape of Ireland.
These stories, from across the island of Ireland – and further afield – celebrate a strong community and its allies, and speak across the generations. Together, they tell a new story of the gains, losses, devastation and community rising from the ashes of defeat. It is a hugely enjoyable and insightful read for both those who lived through this movement and for those who enjoy its benefits today.
Drawing from oral history as well as archives, Reeling in the Queers brings even more to life the great big queer tapestry in Ireland. Queer history in Ireland is Irish history and acknowledging and celebrating the light and the dark of it protects all of our futures as much as our pasts.
