Norman Campbell
How I Defeated Schizophrenia

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: I am but mad north-north-west, when the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw… Hamlet`s words from one of Norman Campbell`s favourite plays could well be used to describe his early life. Raised in a strict Calvinist community on the island of Lewis, without a father to give him a name, Norman`s feelings of alienation and paranoia grew as he grew, fearing the friendship of others and dreading the word applied to people who were illegitimate. Finally, after his MSc degree at Aberdeen University, the descent into the mire of schizophrenia began. Jobs came and went, Norman signed the Official Secrets Act, and in no time MI5 were `investigating` him, while the police were on his case regarding Joycean adventures with loose women and other less savoury sexual peccadilloes. Then came stasis, dependency, solitude… and slow recovery. This is a triumphant story, graphically told and full of touching references to literature and painting. It concerns an outsider`s fight… [detailed...]

How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market

Publisher: Kensington Publishing Corporation
Description: Nicolas Darvas, author of How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market, concluded that Wall Street was nothing more than a huge gambling casino. It bristled with dealers, croupiers and touts-and he explained all of this in a later highly successful book, Wall Street: The Other Las Vegas. How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market is an extraordinary book. It tells one of the most unusual success stories in the history of the stock market. Darvas was not a stock market professional trading on inside information. He was one half of the highest paid dance team in show business. Yet he was able to make himself a millionaire several times over by his unique investment approach. Unlike other so-called systems, it worked regardless of whether the market rose or fell. When news of Darvas`s fantastic profits and methods leaked out, he was featured in Time Magazine. He then was persuaded to write a book which became an instant hit, selling nearly 200,000 copies in… [detailed...]

How I Made My First Million: Ten True Stories of How British Tycoons Made Their Fortunes

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Who wants to be a millionaire? We all do, actually. Only nowadays it`s not enough to have just one million, as being really comfortable requires having several million in the bank. With more millionaires than ever before, it seems tantalizingly within reach. In this look at how to get the good life, 12 self-made millionaires come clean about how they got filthy rich. Michelle Mone grew up in a one-bedroomed tenement in Glasgow and watched her sister die young and her dad become paralyzed, and yet she went on to build a money-spinning underwear empire. And 28-year-old Alexander Amosu became the self-styled King of Ringtones, ringing up a fortune in the process. What the people in this book prove is that there`s no such thing as a typical millionaire. Some are middle aged, some barely out of school. Some come from nothing with everything to prove, others reinvent themselves after otherwise indifferent careers. The main things they have in common are ambition, motivation, and the ability… [detailed...]

Larry Williams is about to show you how anyone of reasonable intelligence can consistently beat the market, year in and year out. You`ll see all the tools he uses to ferret out the super trades that lead to gains of well over 1000%. Williams` basic theory is that future price direction is pretty well known by the large commercial users, producers and consumers. These are the people that must have commodities to stay in business. The secret to commodities, in the author`s opinion, is tracking these billion dollar super powers. Williams uses several methods to find out what commodities they are most bullish or bearish on. His technique is further refined with a unique technical system to time your entry and exits from the sure-thing trades his system isolates. In addition to learning Williams` methods, you`ll also learn how he thinks and what it takes to become a winner, psychologically… [detailed...]

Description: Digital images are an integral part of all media, including television, film, photography, animation, video games, data visualization, and the Internet. In the digital world, spectators become navigators wending their way through a variety of interactive experiences, and images become spaces of visualization with more and more intelligence programmed into the very fabric of communication processes. In How Images Think , Ron Burnett explores this new ecology, which has transformed the relationships humans have with the image-based technologies they have created. So much intelligence has been programmed into these image-dependent technologies that it often seems as if images are `thinking`, ascribing thought to machines redefines our relationship with them and enlarges our ideas about body and mind. Burnett argues that the development of this new, closely interdependent relationship marks a turning point in our understanding of the connections between humans and machines. … [detailed...]

In this book, she shows how to develop a strategy that is aligned with the rules of industry change. By understanding and operating within the rules, executives can better appreciate the tradeoffs that are unique to each company`s evolutionary path-and consequently improve performance by making smarter, more profitable strategic bets. How Industries Evolve is based on extensive statistical studies of 700 global industries and more than twenty-five case studies.
