A Simple 12-Step Plan to Start Investing and Grow Your Own Wealth

Miss Independent

A fascinating deep dive into the dynamic interplay between culture, economics, institutions, and human prosperity. In Pathway to Change, Naci Mocan investigates the economic origins of current cultural beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors, highlighting the lasting impact of historical agricultural practices and ecological conditions. He shows that cultural traits evolve in response to external shocks—such as exposure to violence, changes in institutional quality, and the laws and law enforcement—and argues that culture and institutions influence each other: culture shapes the functioning of institutions, while institutions also mold cultural norms. As a result, the success of institutional reforms depends heavily on the cultural context in which they are implemented. Drawing on research from various fields—including economics, evolutionary biology, psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, philosophy, anthropology, and political science—the author describes how cultural attributes such as trust, honesty, patience, preference for leisure, morality, individualism, and proclivity for violence shape economic outcomes and individual well-being. The book presents evidence on both intergenerational transmission of culture and horizontal transmission within the members of the same generation. It also describes how culture can be shaped and transformed, emphasizing the roles of media, education, laws and law enforcement, and role models. Finally, the book recommends that undesirable cultural attributes that are detrimental to our well-being, determined by scientific criteria, should be modified, and offers policy tools that can be deployed for cultural change.

Building a Deep-Tech Startup

Launching from the Lab

'Informative, lively and consistently engaging' Financial Times Join the Bank of England on a surprising and entertaining tour through how money really works - and why it's rarely the way you think . . . Most of us think about money every day. But how many of us understand it? Every morning, someone unassumingly types numbers into a spreadsheet, hits enter and creates millions of pounds. Somewhere deep underground, a machine most of us will never see props up the entire British economy. And hidden in a vault nearby are individual banknotes worth £100 million each. These are just some of the surprising truths about how money works. The Bank of England know more about the money system than most - after all, it is their job to keep it running smoothly. Now, for the first time, two of its economists take you deep into their vaults to tell you the inside story of money. They explain how ordinary banks are able to create money from scratch, and what stops that descending into chaos. They explore what causes inflation and why one country tried to solve rising prices by asking its citizens to cut all banknotes in half. They uncover how a baby hippo briefly became a global currency, and what that says about the future of money. And they reveal what goes on inside the Bank of England during a banking crisis, and why it means your money is safer now than ever before. Along the way, they explore how money is changing today - and what new technologies like crypto mean for its future. The result is a lively and surprising guide to how money is supposed to work, what happens when it doesn't, and where it might be going next.

A Journey Through the Hidden World of Manufacturing

How Things Are Made

“A captivating exploration of gender dynamics, set against a background of the trying and confusing time of adolescence, when identity is in flux and everything in life is unstable and magical.” —Lydia Conklin, author of Rainbow RainbowA fresh, thoughtful, and always surprising short story collection from a rising young star in the world of Japanese literature.Composed of the title novella and three short stories, People Who Talk to Stuffed Animals Are Nice sensitively explores gender, friendship, romance, love, human interaction and its absence, and how a misogynistic society limits women and men.In the title story, Nanamori and Mugito, two university students appalled by society’s gendered roles, rebel. Refusing to interact with other people they use stuffed toys for emotional support. Unlike Nanamori and Mugito, their fellow plushie society member Shiraki does not talk to plushies. Pragmatic, she accepts the status quo that boys sometimes make nasty jokes; she believes their behavior resembles the real world.In “Realizing Fun Things Through Water,” a young woman named Hatsuoka must contend with a mother-in-law who swears by cancer-preventing “hyper-organization” water, and a sister who writes fake news for a living. “Bath Towel Visuals” illuminates the mental cost of not just laughing along at mean humor, while “Hello, Thank You I’m Okay” follows a family’s response when their shut-in son announces he wants to throw himself a birthday party.Written in brisk and gentle prose, Ao Omae’s stories capture the subtleties and complexities of his characters’ inner world, individuals struggling to conform in an inflexible society little tolerant of difference. These stories, sometimes comical, sometimes bittersweet, and always thought-provoking, speak to the pain and desires of all who embrace nuance, repudiate traditional sex roles, and long for a gentler and more tolerant world.

People Who Talk to Stuffed Animals Are Nice (Nomad Edition)

This book provides a clear and accessible introduction to industrial economics, designed to help readers understand how markets and firms operate in theory and practice. 
Beginning with the benchmark model of perfect competition, the book explains why economists use this idealized structure to assess efficiency and consumer welfare. The book examines real-world market structures—monopoly, oligopoly, and monopolistic competition—where firms exercise strategic power over prices and output. Chapters explore how companies compete, cooperate, and innovate, drawing on case-based examples to illustrate the dynamics of market behavior. The text also addresses regulation and competition policy, tracing the origins of antitrust legislation and presenting tools for measuring market power. These chapters equip readers to evaluate policy interventions and their implications for business strategy and consumer outcomes.
In its final section, the book turns to the economics of information, focusing on contract theory and the principal–agent problem. It demonstrates how incentives and asymmetric information shape decision-making within firms and markets, offering insights into governance and organizational design.
Combining rigorous analysis with practical applications, this book is an essential resource for undergraduate and graduate students in economics and business, as well as for readers seeking to understand the forces that shape modern industry.

The Economics of Markets, Firms, and Competition

Industrial Organization

A Financial Times Book of the Year No other phenomenon has shaped human history as decisively as capitalism. It structures how we live and work, how we think about ourselves and others, how we organise our politics. Sven Beckert situates the story of capitalism within the largest conceivable geographical and historical framework in this fascinating new book. Capitalism, argues Beckert, was born global. Emerging from merchant communities across Asia, Africa and Europe, capitalism's radical recasting of economic life rooted itself only gradually. Then it burst onto the world scene, as European states and merchants built a powerful alliance that would propel them across the oceans. This epic drama corresponded at no point to an idealised dream of free markets. All along, state-backed institutions and imperial expansions shaped its dynamics. Capitalism decentres the European perspective, highlighting agency, resistance, innovation and ruthless coercion around the world through to the present with the rise of Asian economies, particularly China. Sven Beckert doesn't merely add up capitalism's debits and credits in this monumental book, but allows us to think afresh about the past to help us re-imagine the future.
