Building the Vibrant Future of Manufacturing

A limited hardcover deluxe edition of the modern classic Pachinko—named one of the New York Times' 100 Best Books of the 21st Century—following four generations of a poor Korean immigrant family fighting to control their destiny in 20th-Century Japan. Features: <ul><li> New hardcover jacket with special effects </li><li> Four-color specially designed endpapers </li><li> Specially designed foil stamped case </li><li> Stenciled edges </li><li> Ribbon bookmark </li></ul> History is seldom kind. In Min Jin Lee’s acclaimed and magisterial novel, four generations of a poor, proud immigrant family fight to control their destinies while exiled from their homeland. In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant—and that her lover is married—she refuses to bend to his will. Instead she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home and reject her son’s powerful father sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through generations. Richly told and profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty. From bustling street markets to the halls of one of Japan’s finest universities to pachinko parlors and the criminal underworld, Lee’s complex and passionate characters—resilient, fierce women, devoted sisters, bright sons, fathers shaken by moral crises—survive and flourish against the indifferent arc of history.

Pachinko (Deluxe Limited Edition)

Every year, more than 2.8 million Americans die, and most of them leave behind bank accounts, beneficiaries, and families who suddenly discover that their loved one's financial institution has no idea what to do next.

The result is predictable: 70% of heirs switch banks within twelve months of an account holder's death. Multiply that by the $124 trillion in wealth transferring between generations by 2048, and the banking industry is staring down the largest deposit attrition event in American financial history - one that most institutions are completely unprepared for.

The Death of Deposits is the definitive guide for bank executives, fintech leaders, and financial industry strategists who want to stop losing to a problem they can see coming. Martha Sylla Underwood, the founder and CEO of Prismm Inc., the company building estate orchestration infrastructure for financial institutions, draws on deep industry research, regulatory analysis, and real-world implementation experience to lay out exactly why banks fail families during estate settlement, and precisely what it takes to turn that failure into a competitive advantage.
This book maps the operational tangle, the technology debt, the regulatory maze, and the human capability gaps that make estate processing so painful for both families and institutions. More importantly, it builds the complete playbook for transformation: the business case, the implementation roadmap, the ROI model, and the infrastructure decisions that separate the institutions that will capture the generational wealth transfer from the ones that will watch it walk out the door.

The $124 trillion is already in motion. The families are already deciding. The only question is whether your institution will be ready.

The Death of Deposits, How Banks Can Turn the $124 Trillion Wealth Transfer into Their Greatest Opportunity

"2.5 Billion Heartbeats is not just a leadership book-it is a wake-up call. A reminder that leadership has never been about titles, corner offices, or authority, but about influence, intention, and the posture of our hearts. Every human life is given roughly 2.5 billion heartbeats, and the question this book dares to ask is simple and unsettling: What are you doing with yours? In a world exhausted by pressure, performance, and empty definitions of success, this book challenges us to slow down long enough to remember that "leadership is not what you do to people, but what you awaken within them."

Written for business leaders, parents, spouses, coaches, teachers, and everyday people who shape lives without ever holding a formal title, 2.5 Billion Heartbeats reframes leadership as deeply personal and profoundly human. This is a call to lead at work-but also at home. To understand that "who you are becoming matters more than what you are achieving," and that the way we show up for our families, our teams, and our communities leaves a legacy far beyond numbers or accolades. Through powerful stories, hard truths, and the H.E.A.R.T. leadership model, this book confronts the lie that leadership belongs to a few and boldly declares that "every heartbeat carries influence, and every life leaves a mark."

At its core, this book is an invitation-to live, love, and lead differently. To stop chasing applause and start building trust. To move from burnout to purpose, from control to compassion, from success defined by profit to success defined by people. As the book reminds us, "One day the noise will fade, the titles will disappear, and what will remain is the way you made people feel." 2.5 Billion Heartbeats will challenge you, stir you, and ultimately call you to lead from the heart-starting today, with the life and influence you already have."

2.5 BILLION HEARTBEATS

Part life philosophy, part financial clarity, and part real-world wisdom from a hugely popular estate planning attorney who has seen what happens when families plan and when they don't. I'm Sorry I'm Dead helps readers confront the reality of life's end, not in a morbid way, but in a deeply empowering one. Estate planning attorney, entrepreneur, and best-selling author Pamela Maass Garrett aka Law Mother has helped thousands of families navigate what happens when someone dies. She has seen firsthand that the biggest problems families face are rarely legal: they are emotional, relational, and the result of decisions never made . . . siblings that stop speaking over a dispute about their parent's home, a grieving widow locked out of bank accounts because she didn't know how to get access, and families forced to guess about critical medical decisions. All of these problems can be easily avoided. In this book, Garrett introduces a powerful mindset shift: when you face the end of life honestly, you begin living more intentionally today. Through compelling stories from real families, practical financial insights, and simple decision-making frameworks, readers learn how to take control of their lives before circumstances take control of them. The book guides readers through the most important life decisions most people avoid: · how to organize finances and build real wealth · how to protect loved ones legally and emotionally · how to make difficult family decisions before crisis strikes · how to prevent conflict, confusion, and regret after death · how to create a legacy that strengthens future generations rather than unintentionally burdening them with a huge tax bill · what you really can and can't do Rather than overwhelming readers with technical legal details, I'm Sorry I'm Dead offers a clear philosophy and practical tools for making the decisions that matter most. The result is a life lived with greater clarity, stronger relationships, and the peace of knowing the people you love will be protected. This book is for anyone who wants to stop drifting through life and start deciding it.

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. <ul> <li>In The Rothschilds, Harry Freedman delves into their lives on a historical tour, marked by an unfailing attention to the influence of individual family members on world events.</li> <li>We travel from the genesis of the Rothschild international banking empire to the impact of individual Rothschilds in multiple fields over the past 250 years.</li> <li>Spanning war, politics and the industrial revolution, art, architecture and interior design, zoology, smuggling, and counter-terrorism and the ongoing struggle against entrenched anti-Jewish bigotry in different historical eras and places.</li></ul> The Rothschilds reveals a truly new story of a very old family, making a great contribution both to history and our understanding of a dynasty that has shaped our world. &nbsp;
