Why Women Should Rule the World

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: If women ruled the world, politics would be more collegial, businesses would be more productive, and communities would be healthier. More women should lead—not because they are the same as men, but precisely because they are different. Reflecting on her own tenure as White House press secretary and her work as a political analyst, media commentator, and former consultant to NBC`s The West Wing, Dee Dee Myers blends memoir and social history with a call to action, as she assesses the crucial but long-ignored strengths that female leaders bring to the table. With intelligence, courage, candor, and wit, she looks at the obstacles women must overcome and the traps they must avoid on the path to success, and she challenges us to imagine a not-too-distant future with more women standing tall in the top ranks of politics, business, science, and academia.

Why is construction so backward

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionConstruction is vital both to Gross Domestic Product and to today`s politics. Prime Minister Tony Blair himself chairs a cabinet committee on the Thames Gateway development, to the east of London. Housing has proved a big factor in Chancellor Gordon Brown’s worries about the Euro. But the construction sector is one of the world’s weakest in innovation. Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott’s target of just 4000 homes to be made through prefabrication shows how building remains a 19th century affair, not a 21st century one. Drawing on the latest technologies that have emerged both inside and outside the sector, Why is construction so backward? forms a detailed, practical alternative to the conventional wisdom in building design and urban planning. It is a powerful call for reform, and a sharp polemic against architecture as social engineering and environmentalist dogma. Contains a foreword by Martin Pawley … [detailed...]

Description: Why on Earth Does God Have to Paint? /Centripetal Art by RAFAEL CHODOS Based on Selected Works and Writings of JUNKO CHODOS A book that shows how art can move from the soul of the artist to the soul of the viewer. As a young child living through the Allied bombings of Japan in World War II, Junko painted secretly, passionately, in bomb shelters and other hiding places. For years she viewed her art as something dark and ugly, something to hide from the world. But out of the blue when she was in her early thirties, during a desperate time just after she had moved to America, a spiritual teacher in Japan whom she had never met told a friend of hers that he had seen her art psychically, and that God was painting through her. When Junko heard this she gasped and whispered, Why on earth does God have to paint? As she contemplated this question, Junko reached the realization that the darkest thing can become a source of radiant light and that art can reveal the mystery of this… [detailed...]

Why the Bubble Burst: Us Stock Market Performance Since 1982 (New Directions in Modern Economics Series)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWhy the Bubble Burst provides a comprehensive look at the most dramatic run-up in equity values in US history. Lawrance Evans takes the reader from theory to empirics, illustrating why we need to go beyond the efficient markets hypothesisand the theory of domestic irrational exuberance to fully unpack the unprecedented phenomenon, why the market was destined for a major decline and why the fallout will be severe and protracted. Quantitative evidence suggests that mutual funds, international portfolio flows, and the decline in the amount of corporate equity outstanding all played an integral role in the stock market boom. These ingredients in the context of a supply and demand-based theory of equity price determination indicate that supply and demand forces unrelated to corporate profitability elevated US equity valuations to unsustainable levels. The author?s conclusions carry implications for economic theory and policy, retirement security and stock… [detailed...]

Why the Egyptians Wrote Books (University College London Institute of Archaeology Publications)

Why were some genres of texts created and not others? John Tait uses this question as the starting point to explore the meaning of writing in ancient Egypt, through its technology, through the decisions of the scribes who wrote them, and through the expectations of readers of these texts. It explores the culture of orality, the uses made of written documents, and ancient preservation strategies for textual materials. Tait creates a set of genres of Egyptian texts to help us understand how they viewed written documents in their original cultural context. [detailed...]

Why the Garden Club Couldn`t Save Youngstown: The Transformation of the Rust Belt

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this book, Sean Safford compares the recent history of Allentown, Pennsylvania, with that of Youngstown, Ohio. Allentown has seen a noticeable rebound over the course of the past twenty years. Facing a collapse of its steel-making firms, its economy has reinvented itself by transforming existing companies, building an entrepreneurial sector, and attracting inward investment. Youngstown was similar to Allentown in its industrial history, the composition of its labor force, and other important variables, and yet instead of adapting in the face of acute economic crisis, it fell into a mean race to the bottom. Challenging various theoretical perspectives on regional socioeconomic change, Why the Garden Club Couldn’t Save Youngstown argues that the structure of social networks among the cities’ economic, political, and civic leaders account for the divergent trajectories of post-industrial regions. It offers a probing historical explanation for the decline, fall, and unlikely… [detailed...]

Why the Poor Pay More : How to Stop Predatory Lending

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe proverbial American dream of owning a home has become an all-too-real nightmare for a growing number of families. The most vulnerable segments of our society--including minorities, the elderly, and working families--are being victimized by financiers who lure them into commitments they cannot fulfill. Collectively known as `predatory lending,` these practices include offering higher interest rates than can be justified by the risk, high pre-payment penalties that lock families into exploitative loans, and monstrous balloon payments that often result in default and the loss of the home. The net result can be disastrous: damage to one`s credit rating, bankruptcy, and even the loss of lifelong savings. Why the Poor Pay More is an incisive exposure of these practices--how they have evolved, why they have become so prevalent in recent years, and how their negative effects can be quantified--and showcases community efforts to combat them along with outlining active roles… [detailed...]

Finally, a stomach was fashioned. All of the parts enjoyed their functions, except for the stomach, which didnt know what to do. Bored and jealous, the growling, grumbling stomach caused problems for all the others. The angry Creator decided to put all of the parts together so they would have to get along. He placed the stomach right in the middle, but sometimes it still growls. Colorful prose and whimsical illustrations ignite the imagination of young readers. [detailed...]

In so doing, she offers an account of why the wealthy give that also provides insight into the nature of elite culture, status, identity, and cohesion. Emphasizing the diversity of philanthropy, the book also shows how and why different types of donors support different causes. It further demonstrates how, in the face of considerable change, elite philanthropy has adapted and therefore endured.
