Aisles for Miles: My Years as a Nuptial Concierge/Wedding Doula

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

Revealing the people behind the Rothschild name, The Rothschilds explores the lives and legacy of one of the best-known and most impactful families in modern history The Rothschild name has long been synonymous with wealth and privilege, but as Jews the family has also been dogged by prejudice and hatred. Antisemitism followed them from their earliest beginnings in the oppressive Jewish ghetto of Frankfurt, where Jews were not allowed out after nightfall, to the lofty summits of high finance, art, and culture. However, behind the myths, the glamor, and the conspiracy theories are a group of relatives whose individualism, personalities and occasional eccentricities have been obscured by their shared surname. In The Rothschilds, Harry Freedman delves into their lives on a historical tour, marked as much by dry British humor as by an unfailing attention to the influence of individual family members on world events. Freedman takes us from the genesis of the Rothschild international banking empire to the impact of individual Rothschilds in multiple fields over the past 250 years. Spanning war, politics and the industrial revolution, art, architecture and interior design, zoology, smuggling, counter-terrorism and the ongoing struggle against entrenched anti-Jewish bigotry, he reveals a truly new story of a very old family. The Rothschilds makes a great contribution not only to Jewish history but also our understanding of a dynasty that has shaped our world. &nbsp;

The Untold Family Story

The Rothschilds

Ce livre rend hommage à une personne qui a été le voisin de l'auteur pendant de nombreuses années. L'auteur l'a appelé Léonidas le Grand dans cet ouvrage. Ce n'était pas son vrai nom, mais il lui allait bien et exprimait le fait qu'il était vraiment quelqu'un d'exceptionnel et de très spécial. Léonidas n'était pas particulièrement séduisant, il avait l'apparence d'un Grec typique, même s'il n'en était pas un. Il n'était ni bruyant ni autoritaire, mais il avait une autorité naturelle et parlait d'une voix douce. Il venait de quelque part de la région méditerranéenne. Il semblait avoir bénéficié d'une éducation et d'une culture de premier ordre, ce qui était certainement le reflet de ses origines nobles. Son destin, que l'auteur a parfois pu partager, ne semblait pas toujours avoir été très heureux, même si les apparences pouvaient laisser penser le contraire. Il avait en fait tout ce qu'on pouvait désirer, il était intelligent et apparemment aussi fortuné. On ne sait pas pourquoi il avait choisi précisément l'Allemagne pour s'y installer. Il n'y a pas trouvé le bonheur. Ce livre pourrait toutefois servir d'avertissement à tous les jeunes qui souhaitent s'installer dans un pays où la superficialité est la principale préoccupation de la société. Mais il pourrait également être utile à ceux qui ont conservé leur foi dans la culture de leurs pères, répandue en Europe du Nord, et leur esprit critique.

Je suis un être humain !

You don't have to get beaten up to get beaten down. Andrew Regal spent decades working his way up in the high-stakes landscape of television news. He was often deflated, downtrodden, and defeated during the time of his most acute workplace trauma, which left him anxiety-ridden, alone, ashamed, sleepless, and contemplating suicide. Despite this, readers will find Regal humorous, sympathetic, resilient, and relatable. He is uniquely qualified to aid those who, like him, have suffered while trying to be the best possible employees. Victims of bullying are some of the most loyal, productive, and well-liked employees, and often, because of these qualities, they are more likely to be targeted. Until now, this issue has remained behind corner office doors, leaving targets alone, ashamed, despondent, and often out of a job. Regal provides a sense of purpose--a belief that we can build a future where bullying is no longer tolerated in the office. Surviving Bully Culture will catalyze change, igniting a conversation that reverberates far beyond the pages of Regal's book. In this work, readers will learn from management thought leaders, psychiatrists, psychologists, and legal scholars about why bosses menace their employees and how to limit harm. Regal provides the latest research data, examining why, how often, and toward how many workplace aggression occurs. This coming-of-age journey explores: <ul> <li>The characters Regal met</li> <li>The bold-faced names he encountered</li> <li>The women he loved</li> <li>The captivating and celebrated news stories he covered</li> <li>The mean-spirited, uncaring bullies he survived</li> <li>And the abject failures he tried to overcome.</li> </ul> Surviving Bully Culture emerges as a rallying cry for change. Regal unveils a path forward, challenging readers to embrace the transformative power of authenticity and self-compassion.

An improbable life. An even more improbable death. Discover the real story of Mike Lynch, Britain's enigmatic billionaire. On the morning of 19th August 2024, the Bayesian yacht tragically sank off the coast of Sicily, taking with it the lives of Mike Lynch, his daughter and five others. Hours earlier, Lynch's associate and co-defendant in one of the biggest fraud cases in Silicon Valley history, Stephen Chamberlain, was hit by a car in Cambridge and killed. The odds of these two deaths occurring together were estimated at four in one billion. Drawing on extensive research and exclusive access to key sources, award-winning Times journalist Katie Prescott forensically explores the life and death of this elusive maverick.

The Curious Case of Mike Lynch

"The tension between what the market is doing and what, by the author’s lights, it ought to be doing, will keep investment-minded readers turning these smart and accessible pages….[A] fine and essential work.”—James Grant, The Wall Street JournalFrom the renowned iconoclast investor comes a brilliant account of sixty years spent hunting for value and sidestepping bubbles in a changing financial worldWhen Jeremy Grantham entered the investment business in the 1960s, he brought the thrifty Quaker values and Yorkshire independence he had been raised with. While other money managers were focused on blue chip stocks, he studied stock market history and constructed by hand the first indices for small-cap and value stocks. Charting their ebb and flow, he could see clearly the powerful force that would become central to his investment philosophy: mean reversion, “the heartbreaking principle that good times always revert back to more boring, more ordinary times.”In the early 1970s Grantham was a pioneer of index investing. Soon after, he co-founded GMO and spent the firm’s early earnings on a hard drive the size of an industrial washing machine, becoming the first firm to use a computer for investment analysis. This quantitative style went on to take over the industry. In the late 1990s Grantham acquired notoriety as a “permabear” for refusing to buy into the dotcom mania. Clients left in droves—one called him “dangerously persuasive and totally wrong”—but he was vindicated when the bubble burst in 2000. Yet while his wealth grew, so did his alarm at the disastrous consequences of short-term thinking not just for investors but for the very future of the planet, and he has directed nearly all his wealth to environmental protection.Written with his former colleague, the bestselling financial historian Edward Chancellor, The Making of a Permabear is replete with investment insights and provides a compellingly candid and witty insider’s tour of the booms and busts of the past half century.

The Making of a Permabear

Diese Buch ist kein Finanzratgeber und keine klassische Biografie. Es ist ein persönliches Protokoll über Machtgefälle, Abhängigkeit und systematisches wegsehen. Ausgangspunkt ist ein Konflikt mit meiner Sparkasse, der ich jahrelang mein Vertrauen schenkte. Doch im Kern geht es um mehr: um strukturelle Überlegenheit eines Geldinstituts gegenüber einem einzelnen Kunden, um fehlende Augenhöhe, um Aktenführung, Verantwortung, wirtschaftlicher Entscheidungen auf ein reales Leben

The instant New York Times bestseller Shortlisted for the Westminster Book Awards 2025 '[A] joyful, tragic account of life in Gaza' - Miriam Margolyes 'Left me both devastated and inspired' - Macklemore 'Transforms pain into poetry' - Rupi Kaur In early October 2023, Plestia Alaqad was a recent graduate with dreams of becoming a journalist. By the end of that November, she would be internationally known as the 'Eyes of Gaza', moving millions with her social media posts depicting daily life in Gaza amid Israel's deadly invasion and bombardment. Written as a series of diary extracts, The Eyes of Gaza relates the horrors of Plestia's experiences, while showcasing the indomitable spirit of the men, women and children of her community. From the heart of the turmoil, surrounded by falling bombs and widespread devastation, she captures their emotions; their gentle acts of quiet, necessary heroism; and the moments of unexpected tenderness and vulnerability amid the chaos. Through the raw honesty and vulnerability of a normal twenty-one-year-old woman navigating a human tragedy, The Eyes of Gaza is a potent reminder of the horrors of violence and a powerful testament to the human spirit.
