Persil, Ata, Pril, Somat, Pritt - many brands that belong to the Henkel corporate cosmos have been an integral part of everyday life for decades. However, few people are aware of the complex and varied history behind the Henkel name. Joachim Scholtyseck traces the path of this company since 1876 for the first time on a comprehensive scientific basis and shows how Henkel transformed itself from a detergent manufacturer into a global corporation that is now a world leader, particularly in the adhesives sector. 
 
Henkel is a child of of the last third of the 19th century and benefited from the economic rise of the young German nation state. The rising standard of living of the population increased the demand for everyday consumer goods, which the company was able to meet with its rapidly growing detergent business. Founded by Fritz Henkel in Aachen in 1876, the company expanded rapidly and moved its headquarters to Düsseldorf in 1900, where it is still based today. In 1907, the revolutionary detergent Persil, which was advertised in an innovative way and represented a and represented a quantum leap for the company. To this day, it is probably the best-known brand with which Henkel is widely associated. But even at the beginning of the of the 20th century the company had already much more to offer. Joachim Scholtyseck examines the success factors that turned the Aachen-based start-up into a flourishing company, examines Henkel's role in the Third Reich and and shows how the detergent producer became a global company.

From the bestselling author of Too Big to Fail, "the definitive history of the 2008 banking crisis,"* comes a spellbinding narrative of the most infamous stock market crash in history. With the depth of a classic history and the drama of a thriller, 1929 unravels the greed, blind optimism, and folly that led to an era-defining collapse-one with ripple effects that still shape our society todayIn 1929, the world watched in shock as the unstoppable Wall Street bull market went into a freefall, wiping out fortunes and igniting a depression that would reshape a generation. But behind the flashing ticker tapes and panicked traders, another drama unfolded-one of visionaries and fraudsters, titans and dreamers, euphoria and ruin. With unparalleled access to historical records and newly uncovered documents, New York Times bestselling author Andrew Ross Sorkin takes readers inside the chaos of the crash, behind the scenes of a raging battle between Wall Street and Washington and the larger-than-life characters whose ambition and naivety in an endless boom led to wreckage. The dizzying highs and brutal lows of this era eerily mirror today's world-where markets soar, political tensions mount, and the fight over financial influence plays out once again. This is not just a story about money. 1929 is a tale of power, psychology, and the seductive illusion that "this time is different." It's about disregarded alarm bells, financiers who fell from grace, and skeptics who saw the crash coming-only to be dismissed until it was too late. Hailed as a landmark book, Too Big to Fail reimagined how financial crises are told. Now, with 1929, Sorkin delivers an immersive, electrifying account of the most pivotal market collapse of all time-with lessons that remain as urgent as ever. More than just a history, 1929 is a crucial blueprint for understanding the cycles of speculation, the forces that drive financial upheaval, and the warning signs we ignore at our peril. *The Atlantic Monthly

Prostitution in Los Angeles has a long history. The story of its evolution from a red-light district run by women to a corporate vice industry dominated by men tells us much about the development of urban America. Kooistra examines race and gender dynamics alongside issues of government and police corruption, commerce and larger changes in society.

"Most economists, Christopher F. Jones observes, assume that the Earth's capacity-air, water, land, minerals-is large enough for any human purpose, and we need not worry about limiting growth. How did they come to think this, and what are the effects of continuing to do so? While most ecologists argue that growth must eventually cease due to environmental limits, mainstream neoclassical economists offer a much rosier picture, contending that price signals, technological change, and capital substitution can overcome resource scarcity. Jones analyzes how and why the field chose to develop thus, over the protest of a few lonely voices"--

Shortest Histories

From our earliest wanderings to the rise of the digital nomad, here is the story of human migration. For hundreds of thousands of years, the ability of Homo sapiens to travel across vast distances and adapt to new environments has been key to our survival as a species. Yet this deep migratory impulse is being tested as never before. By building ever stronger walls and raising barriers to progress, governments are harming the lives of migrants and threatening the future well-being of our societies. In The Shortest History of Migration, a visionary thinker tells a story of the movement of peoples that spans every age and continent and goes to the heart of what makes us human. Drawn from ancient records and the latest genetic research, it recounts strange, terrible and uplifting tales of migrants past and present, examining the legacies of empire, slavery and war. Finally, Goldin turns his attention to today's world, bringing together the evidence of history with the most recent data to suggest how we might create a more humane future - one that allows us to reap the tremendous benefits that migration can offer.

The Shortest History of Migration

In the twelfth-century, Pisa was a powerhouse of global trade, a city that stood at the centre of Medieval Europe. But Pisa had a problem. It was running out of coins. In the face of a looming financial crisis, the city's rulers and its moneylenders forged a deal that laid the foundations of the modern state and of present-day banking. In Money and Promises, the distinguished banker and scholar Paolo Zannoni examines the extraordinary relationship between states and banks. He draws upon seven case studies: the republic of twelfth-century Pisa, seventeenth-century Venice, the early years of the Bank of England, Imperial Spain, the Kingdom of Naples, the nascent USA during the American Revolution, and Bolshevik Russia in 1917-21. Spanning a multitude of countries, political systems and historical eras, Zannoni shows that at the heart of our institutions lies an intricate exchange of debt and promises that has shaped the modern world. Featuring pioneering research and original insights, this authoritative yet accessible book explores the vital relationship upon which our financial and political systems still depend.
