Phenomenal World Books

A critical history of the US dollar's dominance in the world economy--and what has kept China's currency from overtaking it. The dollar is the primary currency of the world economy. With China now rivaling the United States on the world stage, a critical question hangs in the balance: will the Chinese renminbi challenge the status of the dollar and, in doing so, deprive America of its "exorbitant privilege"? In GreenbackEmpire, Ho-fung Hung offers a powerful account of why, even as American shares of global production, ownership, and trade continue to decline, its currency has retained the support of governments and investors around the world. For six decades, Hung shows, the dominance of the dollar has rested on the security umbrella that the US offers to the world's wealthiest countries--including oil producers. To these countries, support for the value of the dollar is tantamount to maintaining US protection. While China has become a serious geopolitical and economic rival to the US, the Chinese state's airtight control of its financial system has delayed the free trading of the renminbi, limiting the currency's internationalization. In short, the same strategy that engineered growth in China's economy is restraining its currency's rise in opposition to the dollar. Hung's Greenback Empire is an essential history of the dollar's prowess, indispensable for understanding the future of the global monetary system.

Global Dollar Dominance and the New Cold War

Greenback Empire

Der Verein Deutscher Lebensversicherungsgesellschaften (VDL), gegründet 1869 in Berlin, ist der älteste Zusammenschluss in der deutschen Lebensversicherung. Später engagierten sich nicht mehr die Gesellschaften selbst, sondern deren Vorstände im Verein.

Auch heute organisiert und fördert der VDL den Austausch wissenschaftlicher und praktischer Erfahrungen unter Lebensversicherern, Pensionskassen und Pensionsfonds in Deutschland. Diese Chronik enthält Jubiläumsvorträge aus über 15 Jahrzehnten im Originaltext, die Entwicklungen über lange Zeiträume aus Sicht der jeweiligen Vortragenden beleuchten. Ergänzend wurden Themen und namhafte Referenten der Mitgliederversammlungen von 2000 bis 2024 übersichtlich zusammengestellt. Dies bietet einen Überblick über die zentralen Herausforderungen, die von der Branche kunden- und serviceorientiert unter Beachtung aller politisch gesetzten Rahmenbedingungen zu lösen waren.

(seit Gründung 1869 bis 2025)

Verein Deutscher Lebensversicherer Chronik

A 2,500-year history of international currencies that reveals new insights about the future of the U.S. dollar—as well as crypto and central bank digital currencies Doubts about the international dominance of the dollar are only growing amid worries about tariffs, political dysfunction, and fraying international alliances. Will the dollar continue to reign supreme? In Money Beyond Borders, the leading authority on international currencies, Barry Eichengreen, puts the dollar’s prospects in deep historical perspective by chronicling the entire history of cross-border currencies, from the invention of coins in the seventh century BCE to the cryptocurrencies of today and the central bank digital currencies of tomorrow. Money Beyond Borders recounts how Greek and Roman coins became the first true international currencies. It tells how the Florentine gold florin became the “greenback of the Renaissance,” and how it was succeeded by Spanish silver and a Dutch fiat currency. The book explains why the British pound dominated the international economy in the nineteenth century, why the dollar rose to the top during World War II, and why the dollar has survived predictions of the imminent loss of its preeminence since the 1970s. The long history of international currencies shows that the same factors that encourage their widespread use eventually lead to their abandonment. Money Beyond Borders makes a powerful case that the dollar is now on the downside of this cycle, and it considers who the winners and losers will be when there is flight away from the greenback. Revealing important patterns in the life cycles of international currencies over the past 2,500 years, the book offers valuable lessons and insights about how currencies rise—and why they fall.

Impact of Capital Structure on Banking Performance. Case Study of Pakistan

A “highly entertaining” (The Wall Street Journal) investigation into the mysterious identity of Bitcoin’s creator and a deep dive into crypto’s utopian origin story—from The New York Times bestselling author of The Billionaire’s Vinegar “Could be the best mystery story of the past twenty years.”—James Patterson “Superb.”—David Grann, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Wager, Killers of the Flower Moon, and The Lost City of Z A NEW YORK POST BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR In October 2008, someone going by the name Satoshi Nakamoto posted a white paper outlining “a peer-to-peer electronic cash system” called Bitcoin to an arcane listserv populated by Cypherpunks. No one in the community had heard of Nakamoto, and just as people were starting to wonder who he was, he vanished. As the years passed, and the scope of Nakamoto’s achievement became clear, the truth of his identity grew into the greatest unsolved mystery of our time. The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto traces Benjamin Wallace’s attempt to unmask the figure behind the currency and the world it wrought. Nakamoto’s Bitcoin at first seemed destined to fulfill the dreams of fringe 1990s utopians for a currency set free from governments and big banks. Yet after he disappeared, his creation took on a strange new life in the financial markets, where rampant speculation fueled a vision of crypto as a potential windfall, inviting charlatans and scammers and opening a vast gulf between Bitcoin’s idealistic origins and its troubled reputation. But who was Nakamoto? Whoever he was could rightly claim to have invented one of the most important technologies of the new century. And Nakamoto was a billionaire—his Bitcoin wallet held an untouched eleven-figure fortune waiting to be claimed. With the same propulsive-narrative flair that made his New York Times bestseller The Billionaire’s Vinegar an instant success, Benjamin Wallace presents a page-turning work of investigative journalism. Tracking leads from London to Oslo to Los Angeles, from coastal Australia to the Arizona desert, he takes readers through a rogues’ gallery tour of Nakamoto suspects—from benevolent geniuses like cryptographer Hal Finney to difficult ones like a reclusive polymath known to his followers only as Jim; from the mercurial Australian Craig Wright, who claims to be Nakamoto, to a secret team at the National Security Agency. With the forensic skill of Sherlock Holmes and the storytelling verve of Arthur Conan Doyle, Wallace follows the trail of computer code and personal writings to the heart of the Nakamoto mystery while interrogating the very nature of mystery itself.

A Fifteen-Year Quest to Unmask the Secret Genius Behind Crypto

The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto

A beautiful, new edition of the concise A-Z of Folklore from seminal figure Katharine Mary Briggs. “When it comes to the world of fairies Katharine Briggs is the greatest authority by many a league, and this is the finest guide ever written.” PHILIP PULLMAN “Katharine Briggs's Dictionary is truly wonderful: vivid, witty, and full of a profound and generous knowledge that will thrill both children and adults. Spectacular.” KATHERINE RUNDELL “Katharine Briggs is an editor of such surpassing knowledge that one suspects that she may have sources among witches, ghosts and fairies.” DIANE PURKISS A new edition of Katharine Briggs's short A-Z of Folklore, with beautiful, bespoke illustrations by Fee Greening. Katharine Mary Briggs (1898-1980) was a British folklorist, scholar and author, recognized today as the most important archivist of British folktales. Over the course of her life, she published fourteen books, lectured widely and was president of The Folklore Society. Her books were read and used by contemporaries including J.R.R. Tolkien. To reflect the monumental work Briggs did to collect, catalogue and publish folk stories from Britain and Ireland before the turn of the 21st century, The Folklore Society present an annual award in her honor. This new edition of one of Briggs' seminal works is a dictionary of folklore creatures and tales, illustrated in rich detail with beautiful black and white line drawings by artist Fee Greening. From brownies to Shetland selkies, Cornish spriggans to Nuckelavee (the most horrid of monsters in all of Britain)&nbsp;Briggs's Dictionary of Fairies&nbsp;is a treasury of stories, songs and creatures passed down from one generation to the next. “Katharine Briggs is the surest guide to British folklore in the twentieth century.” JACK ZIPES “Katharine Briggs is the magic mirror on the wall. Ask her what you will...” RICHARD ADAM
