In Devil Take the Hindmost, Edward Chancellor traces the origins of the speculative spirit back to the publicani of ancient Rome and chronicles its revival in the modern world: from the tulip scandal of 1630s Holland and 'stockjobbing' in London's Exchange Alley, to the infamous South Sea Bubble of 1720, which prompted Sir Isaac Newton to comment, 'I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.' This revised and updated edition analyses with characteristic liveliness and precision the end of the dot-com bubble, the property value speculations that culminated in the 2008 financial crisis, the 'Everything Bubble' of the pandemic years and the gigantic speculations of Artificial Intelligence. This is the story of human hopes and folly through the ages, populated by brokers underwriting risks that included highway robbery and the 'assurance of female chastity'; credit notes and lottery tickets circulating as money; wise and unwise investors from Alexander Pope and Benjamin Disraeli to Hillary Rodham Clinton and well-known leaders of our own time.

A History of Financial Speculation

Devil Take the Hindmost

World Scientific Lecture Notes In Economics And Policy

This book attempts to understand the operation and properties of 'market economies'. We do this by carefully examining, refining and in some cases extending the major theorems that Microeconomics has established in response to the Walrasian conjecture. We critically evaluate theorems and results, that assert the existence, uniqueness, stability, optimality and empirical relevance of Walrasian equilibrium states. As a result of our work, we attempt to comment on the wisdom of recommending that socio-economic systems operate as a collection of deregulated competitive markets.

Lectures In General Equilibrium Microeconomics

edition suhrkamp

Ein »Zuschauer*innen« in den Nachrichten, und das Internet kocht. Ein Verlag zieht zwei Winnetou-Bücher zurück, und die Angelegenheit weitet sich fast zu einer Staatsaffäre aus. Eine transgender Influencerin bewirbt eine Biermarke, Konservative starten einen Boykott, der Kurs des größten Brauereikonzerns der Welt bricht ein. Eine Kulturkampf-Episode jagt die nächste, und selbst Konflikte um so materielle Dinge wie Gasheizungen werden zunehmend emotionalisiert und identitätspolitisch aufgeladen. Natürlich sind an solchen Auseinandersetzungen immer zwei Seiten beteiligt. Radikalisierte Konservative bespielen sie jedoch besonders intensiv und auf eine besonders gefährliche Weise. 
 
 
 Natascha Strobl zeichnet die Geschichte der großen Verkulturkampfisierung nach. Sie analysiert, warum diese Strategie für konservative und rechte Parteien so attraktiv ist; außerdem präsentiert sie Ratschläge für den Umgang damit: Wann ist es sinnvoll, nicht über das Stöckchen zu springen? Und wann muss man widersprechen, damit menschenfeindliche Haltungen nicht Normalität werden?

Ein Handbuch | Warum man nicht über jedes Stöckchen springen sollte

Routledge Studies in Leadership Research

This book is a timely exploration in light of the heightened requirement of business for novel solutions to meet the varied economic, ethical and social challenges organisations face, related to fast paced technological developments, increasing global market competition and associated environmental impacts and cultural inequality concerns.

A Relationship-centred Approach

LEADERSHIP AND DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT

This book delves deep into the complex, ethically fraught topic of proofreading of student writing by exploring a variety of perspectives on proofreading interventions in student texts. It gives voice to a range of ethical perspectives, from those who are deeply troubled by proofreading of student writing to those who take a more permissive stance and those whose confusion lands them somewhere in between. As the first book-length work on this topic, it makes a necessary contribution to research on proofreading of student work.

Ethics, Roles and Responsibilities

Proofreading Student Writing

The old playbook is dead. We have entered an era defined by non-linear dynamics, where AI startups outpace trillion-dollar giants and a single digital token reshapes financial reality overnight. In All Swans Are Black, economic historian Dror Poleg argues that unpredictable, high-impact events are no longer the exception, but the rule. Poleg explains how the shift from tangible factories to intangible assets like software and stories has fractured the relationship between effort and reward. To navigate this chaos, he provides a practical toolkit for a world where nobody knows anything: <ul><li>Leave slack: Maintain flexibility to survive downturns while staying ready for sudden upside.</li><li>Make asymmetrical bets: Lean toward actions where the cost of failure is low but the potential reward is uncapped.</li><li>Find patterns: Stop overanalysing why things happen and start identifying the recurring patterns that actually drive results.</li><li>Stay hungry: Assume that whatever helped you get ahead today will not be enough to keep you there tomorrow.</li></ul> Blending rigorous research with his experience as a combat veteran, executive and tech founder, Poleg shows you how to stop trying to predict the future, and instead learn to start flourishing within its uncertainty.

A NO-NONSENSE GUIDE FOR FIXING WORK'S BIGGEST TIME-WASTERS: MEETINGS. __________________________________________ "This book will help you turn meetings from a mindless drain into a strategic advantage" NIR EYAL "Grab a copy of this book before your next week of meetings begins!" REID HOFFMANN "Fantastic" STEVEN ROGELBERG "Meetings are broken. This book fixes them - if we care enough to take action" SETH GODIN __________________________________________ To anyone who has ever sat through a pointless meeting, wondering, "Why am I here?", this book is for you. And respectfully, it's also about you. Meetings are broken. They are relics from a bygone era, designed to issue orders, flaunt power, and keep the hierarchy intact. In today's digital, collaborate-or-bust era, this model isn't just inefficient, it actively harms employees and organisations. Drawing on decades of research and stories from leading companies like Google, Salesforce, Pixar, YouTube, and Dropbox, Your Best Meeting Ever provides a blueprint to transform your meetings from monotonous, soul-crushing time sinks into powerful tools for collaboration and innovation. The secret? Treat them like products. Using the seven product design principles, you'll turn your meetings into well-designed products that actually drive work forward and serve your most important users: the people in your organisation. Your Best Meeting Ever is the book every working professional and leader needs.

7 Principles for Designing Meetings That Get Things Done

Your Best Meeting Ever

Economy, Polity, and Society

Applications of Public Choice Theory to Public Policy

The go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming accent and linguistic bias in the workplace. The way you speak can determine everything from whether you get hired or promoted, to whether people listen to you in meetings. It can affect the strength of your business relationships and reputation, but also whether people think they can trust you. We hear accents loud and clear, yet often they are quietly derailing our efforts to create inclusive work environments where every voice is heard. Linguistic discrimination is still unrecognized in the great majority of Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion (DEI) circles, yet it underpins every type of discrimination in the workplace from race and age to gender, neurodiversity and even sexuality. It is the hidden bias that is derailing even the best DEI efforts. Accent Matters is the go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming linguistic bias in the workplace. Through fascinating stories and examples of accent bias from all over the world, you'll find out how you've been conditioned to prefer certain accents over others, and how those preferences interfere with the way you listen to and interact with those around you. For those who have accents, but especially for those who think they don't, this book will be an eye-opening journey into a fundamental bias that affects every aspect of our lives, both professionally and personally.

Include every voice by challenging accent bias at work

Accent Matters

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

The Pornography Business

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>
