Daniel Clowes
Pussey!

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A vicious satire of pop culture and the commerce of art! This hilarious classic from Dan Clowes is a brutal and scathing peek into the insular, pathetic world of the comic book industry, as seen through the eyes of antihero Dan Pussey (pronounced `Pooh-say`), creator of the smash superhero comic Nauseator . From cradle to grave, Clowes presents the complete saga of Young Dan Pussey , mercilessly skewering the business and medium of comics, bouncing from art to commerce to culture high and low. Clowes not only parodies the superhero genre (notably Stan `The Man` Lee), but also his own peers, from his publishers and fellow authors at Fantagraphics to artistic heavyweights like Art Spiegelman (seen here as `Gummo Bubbleman`). Through it all, Pussey dreams endlessly about having sex with a woman, but even those fantasies degenerate into superhero scenarios. If you think Comic Book Guy on The Simpsons is pathetic (and hilarious), wait `til you read … [detailed...]

Put Option Writing Demystified: Earn Double-Digit Cash Returns While Waiting to Buy Stocks at a Discount

Publisher: —
Description: `Put Option Writing Demystified` is the only book devoted exclusively to the subject of generating double-digit income returns from a little-known, often misunderstood and conservative investment opportunity known as `put option writing.` In fact, it canbe more conservative than simply owning stocks alone. And the good news is that this strategy works best during slow growth, flat or even slightly declining markets. This book fully stands on its own merits, but it can also be viewed as a companion text to `Covered Call Writing Demystified` (see the book description on Amazon.com for more information). Hence the similarity in name. These are the reasons: * Put option writing and covered call writing have essentially the same reward and risk characteristics When used as outlined in the book, they are very conservative (unlike other uses of options) * Investors using covered call writing will find opportunities to use put option writing to achieve similar double-digit… [detailed...]

Putin`s Kremlin: How the West Misinterprets Modern Russia

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A timely account of Putin`s presidency on the eve of his departure from office When President Vladimir Putin ascended to the Kremlin at the end of the 1990s, he had to struggle with the massive after-effects of Boris Yeltsin`s political agenda: outrageous corruption, endless social injustice, and deeply entrenched interests dating back to Gorbachev and beyond. In short, Putin faced the daunting task of leveling out the residual politically unstable scene prevalent since the dramatic and unstable 1990s. Ordinary Russian citizens had been experiencing a looming and growing discontent over the political status in Russia. Stabilizing this turmoil, and working towards cleaning up the ubiquitous corruption that had been driving Post-soviet Russian life, were among Putin`s primary stated aims and for this, the Russian people supported him wholeheartedly. When he had assumed power, however, many Kremlinologists were quick to condemn Putin. Among other things, they depicted him as an… [detailed...]

Putin`s Labyrinth: Spies, Murder, and the Dark Heart of the New Russia

2008 y.
Publisher: Random House
Description: The new Russia is marching in an alarming direction. Emboldened by escalating oil wealth and newfound prominence as a world power, Russia, under the leadership of Vladimir Putin, has veered back toward the authoritarian roots planted in Imperial/Czarist tmes and firmly established during the Soviet era. Though Russia has a new president, Dmitri Medvedev, Putin remains in control, rendering the democratic reforms of the post-Soviet order irrelevant. Now, in Putin’s Labyrinth, acclaimed journalist Steve LeVne, who lived in and reported from the former Soviet Union for more than a decade, provides a penetrating account of modern Russia under the repressive rule of an all-powerful autocrat. LeVine portrays the growth of a “culture of death”–from targeted assasinations of the state’s enemies to the Kremlin’s indifference when innocent hostages are slaughtered. Drawing on new interviews with eyewitnesses and the families of victims, LeVine documents the bloodshed that has stained… [detailed...]

Anna Politkovskaya
Putin`s Russia with a New Chapter on Beslan

2004 y.
Publisher: Harvill Press
Description: Internationally admired for her fearless reporting, especially on the Chechen wars, award-winning journalist Anna Politkovskaya has turned her steely gaze on the man who, until very recently, was a darling of the Western media. A former KGB spy, Vladimir Putin was named President of Russia in 2000. From the moment he entered the public arena, he marketed himself as an open, enlightened leader eager to engage with the West. Unlike many European and American journalists and politicians, Politkovskaya never trusted Putin`s press image. From her privileged vantage point at the heart of Russian current affairs, she set about to dismantle both Putin the man and Putin the brand name, arguing that he is a power-hungry product of his own history and so unable to prevent himself from stifling civil liberties at every turn. This is not, Politkovskaya argues, the kind of leader most contemporary Russians want. To prove her theory, she tells the story of Putin`s iron grip on Russian life from the… [detailed...]

Now she turns her steely gaze on the multiple threats to Russian stability, among them Vladimir Putin himself. Rich with characters and poignant accounts, Putin’s Russia depicts a far-reaching state of decay. Politkovskaya describes an army in which soldiers die from malnutrition, parents must pay bribes to recover their dead sons’ bodies, and conscripts are even hired out as slaves. She exposes rampant corruption in business, government, and the judiciary, where everything from store permits to bus routes to court appointments is for sale. And she offers a scathing condemnation of the ongoing war in Chechnya, where… [detailed...]

Putting Hope to Work: Five Principles to Activate Your Organization`s Most Powerful Resource

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: One of the pioneers of the Total Quality movement, W. Edwards Deming, famously proclaimed, `Drive out fear so that everyone may work more effectively for the company.` But after attending a quality conference in the 1990s devoted to Deming`s proposition, the authors felt somehow drained, talking about fear seemed to have sucked the life out of the entire audience. They began to wonder if it was a vicious circle, what if focusing on fear, even in an effort to drive it out, actually kept you in fear? What if the conversation were shifted to hope--not to negate or invalidate fear but to bring energy to the more life-enhancing side of the equation? Putting Hope to Work is their response to these questions. Drawing upon the authors` many years of research and management consulting, it presents a pragmatic approach to identifying, supporting, and sustaining hope and channeling it toward productive ends to create more vibrant, creative, collaborative--and successful--workplaces. Integrating… [detailed...]
