Crypto Degenerates and the Rise of the Global Casino Economy

A practical, clever, down-to-earth guide to making decisions big or small, fast—from writer, journalist, and nationally acclaimed decision coach Nell McShane Wulfhart. We are drowning in choices—from major life decisions like whether to move, marry, or change careers, to relentless daily dilemmas about what to wear, eat, say, or do. In a world that glorifies optimization and “smart” choices, we’ve wound up paralyzed, deferring, deliberating, and overthinking to the point of exhaustion.&nbsp; Decision-making has become a source of stress instead of empowerment. Nell McShane Wulfhart is here to change that. In Decide in an Hour, she tackles the epidemic of indecision head-on and offers readers a lifeline: the tools to make better choices quickly, without feeling guilty, spiraling, or second-guessing. In this book, Wulfhart teaches us how to: <ul><li>identify the decision we’re actually making (a shockingly common obstacle)</li><li>eliminate noise and make the call—fast</li><li>follow through with confidence, even when others disagree</li><li>make the most common major life choices (career, relationships, kids, where to live) through the use of a decision-making field guide</li></ul> Equal parts wise, warm, and no-nonsense, Decide in an Hour offers clarity and momentum for how to start making smart, confident decisions today.

The Handbook for Making Better Decisions Faster

Decide in an Hour

Banking is entering a new era defined by open banking, embedded finance, artificial intelligence, digital assets, and a growing wave of fintech-led innovation. Yet despite significant investment and technological advances, many financial institutions continue to struggle with the same fundamental challenge: how to successfully collaborate with fintechs to create value for customers, shareholders, and society.Drawing on more than 15 years of international experience across banking, fintech, capital raising, and financial services innovation, this book provides a practical roadmap for navigating the rapidly evolving financial ecosystem. Combining insights from Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America, the book examines how banks, fintech founders, investors, regulators, and corporate leaders can build effective partnerships, avoid common pitfalls, and accelerate innovation at scale.Through real-world examples, strategic frameworks, and lessons from successful fintech-bank collaborations, readers will gain a clear understanding of how open innovation is reshaping financial services, why many partnerships fail, and what organizations can do to position themselves for long-term success. The book also explores emerging trends including open banking, embedded finance, digital transformation, venture investment, and the future competitive landscape of financial services.Written for banking executives, fintech entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers, and finance professionals, this book offers an accessible and actionable guide to one of the most important shifts transforming the global financial industry today.&nbsp;Mahi Sall

The Battle for Global Economic Supremacy

Peak China?

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.

Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

The contemporary significance of the subject “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is indisputable. In periods of social polarization, conflict and crisis, it is imperative that the obligation of our societies to protect and promote social rights is addressed and acknowledged. It is also necessary to recognize the way in which social rights are jeopardized by inequalities that impede the cultivation of robust social relationships and to document instances of the implementation of affirmative actions in this scenario. The aims of this work are as follows: firstly, to establish general topics (part I); secondly, to undertake more specific investigations within the primary topic (part II); and thirdly, to address the challenges posed by the technological transition currently taking place in society, which has significant consequences for social rights, (in)equality, and affirmative action (part III). The study is organized into three sections corresponding to these targets. For the purposes of this study, the analysis will commence, in the Part I of this book, at the genesis of the debates, as outlined in the chapter concerning the old and the new forms of racism. This contribution is followed by a chapter on the growing recognition of intersectional discrimination in European and global human rights frameworks and by another on structural discrimination and the function of the law against unjust enrichment. To further explore and expand upon the subjects addressed in the preceding chapters, the final chapter of Part I of this book delves into the topic of affirmative action in the United States. The second part of this work is dedicated primarily to specific forms of affirmative action, thereby deepening the discussion initiated in the first part of this book. The initial topic examines the way in which the pandemic has impacted specific social groups and led to the emergence of health disparities in the UK. The subsequent chapter is devoted to an examination of the alterations in the benefits of minimum income support in Brazil in recent years. The fourth chapter undertakes a detailed investigation of a specific affirmative action program for children and adolescents with the objective of reducing violence in urban areas. The final chapter conducts an analysis of ageing, public policies and inclusion in Brazil. The third and final section is dedicated to an examination of the challenges faced by our technological societies. The field of “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is set to be impacted by the regulation of artificial intelligence, the increasing digitalization of activities, and the development of new tools designed to enhance the efficiency of the social state. The initial chapter of the concluding section deals with the regulation of artificial intelligence in Brazil and the impacts of neurotechnology. The second study examines conservative digitalization and structural inequalities in Latin American information societies, while the final study focuses on the emergence of the social digital state and the use of instruments that produce inequality and discrimination.

Ergebnisse, Leistung und Erfolg werden häufig mit Methoden, Routinen und Zielsystemen erklärt.Wir leben in einem Zeitalter der totalen Verfügbarkeit. Noch nie hatten wir so viel Wissen zur Verfügung wie heute. Künstliche Intelligenz beantwortet Fragen und löst Aufgaben in Sekunden, wofür frühere Generationen Jahre brauchten. Dennoch scheitern viele Menschen und Organisationen an der Umsetzung ihres Wissens und dem nachhaltigen Erreichen eigener Ansprüche.Professor Lukas Martin entschlüsselt dieses Paradoxon basierend auf neuesten wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen und alten Weisheiten aus Medizin, Neurobiologie und Verhaltenspsychologie.Das Buch untersucht, warum Menschen und Organisationen unter Druck selten ihren Zielen folgen, sondern auf tief verankerte Identitätsstrukturen, Gewohnheiten und innere Selbstbilder zurückfallen.Im Zentrum steht, dass Leistung, Entscheidungsfähigkeit und langfristige Entwicklung weniger von kurzfristiger Optimierung, Balance und Disziplin als von konsistenter, lebenslanger Identitätsbildung abhängt. Auf dieser Grundlage entsteht ein neuer Blick auf Motivation, Resilienz und die Voraussetzungen eines erfüllten und wirksamen Lebens.Ein Sachbuch über Identität, Verhalten und die Frage, warum nachhaltiger Erfolg nicht in Methoden oder Zielen liegt - sondern "inside us".

AI for Financial Sustainability

THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER As seen in TIME Magazine and on High Performance podcast 'This book could change your life' - Time Out 'A remarkable reflection on values and psychology based on hard-won experience' - Rory Stewart Expert advice to master your potential, from the founder and CEO of Discovery and Vitality. Adrian Gore built a company from a single, bold idea into a global financial group serving over 50 million customers across more than forty markets. He didn't just scale a business; he created a whole new shared-value business model, a system so revolutionary it's taught as a case study at Harvard Business School and has been recognized by Fortune magazine as 'changing the world'. In The Four Principles, Gore reveals the framework and guiding principles that powered this success for the first time. Moving beyond standard leadership advice, he explores the behavioural science and 'multiplier effect' that occur when these four principles intersect:<ol><li>Disciplined Optimism: We have a default tendency to seek out negative signals. Learn why choosing optimism is the most rational path to seizing overlooked opportunities.</li><li>Focused Urgency: Why your perceived time to make an impact is shorter than you think. Recognizing this can act as your greatest motivator.</li><li>Declared Goals: Psychologically, avoiding a loss feels twice as important as achieving a gain. Setting bold goals triggers this force, unlocking radical motivation and decisive action.</li><li>The 'Pareto Tail': Building on the other principles, learning to identify and target a few high-power decisions can determine your life's entire trajectory.</li></ol> Gore argues that our instincts, shaped for a simpler, linear world, often mislead us in today's complex, networked age. The Four Principles challenges these outdated mental models and shows you how to harness your potential for truly remarkable results - personally and professionally. 'Demonstrates how to create enduring value' - Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock 'Important reading for those aspiring to leadership or seeking to make an impact on the world' - Lord William Hague, Chancellor of the University of Oxford 'The Four Principles distils decades of leadership and insight into a practical framework that explains what matters - and why' - Sir Mark Tucker, Chairman, AIA Group 'For leaders seeking to create outsized impact' - Ruth Porat, President and CIO of Alphabet and Google

The Four Principles

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.
