Bücher von Gary Smith

The stock market is a wild and scary roller coaster ride that investors have tried to tame with superficially appealing but ultimately flawed strategies¿technical analysis, modern portfolio theory, CAPM, factor models, and algos. Many have simply given up and settled for indexing. This book explains the fundamental flaws that make so many strategies hazardous to our wealth. There is a better way¿what the authors call Investing 6.0¿that is simple enough for anyone to use. No fancy math, complicated computer algorithms, or long days are required. This book offers a strategy with a few key principles that all investors and the financial advisors and planners who serve them can use with ease

Die Kontroverse um Hannah Arendts »Bericht von der Banalität des Bösen«, der 1963 die Diskussion um die Verantwortung des einzelnen während der Nazidiktatur zum Sieden brachte, ist in ihrer Schärfe ohne Beispiel - und sie ist, wie u.a. die sogenannte Goldhagen-Debatte zeigt, nicht weniger aktuell als damals. Indem die Autoren dieses Bandes die Ursachen dieser Kontroverse von verschiedenen Positionen aus nachzeichnen, geben sie zugleich ein intellektuelles Porträt einer der bedeutendsten Denkerinnen des 20. Jahrhunderts.

This is a book of short stories of everyday human emotional experiences. Stories of profound loss. Stories of great friendships. Stories of growing old with a dog, of going to war, and of course, stories of deep romantic love. I hope the stories encourage the reader to do some introspection on what it means to be human. I believe the poems, like all art, will mean more to some than to others.

Qualcuno li sta osservando, ma chi? e perché? Warren scopre che Cindy potrebbe non essere quella che sembra, ma decide comunque di aiutarla a lasciare l'Italia, e così inizia un inseguimento attraverso il nord Italia. Prima che tutto sia finito, ci saranno due cadaveri, un file governativo segreto, un marito geloso, false identità, una casa sicura, un tradimento personale, l'FBI che li cerca e altri che vogliono ucciderli. Warren Steelgrave ha altri assi nella manica per salvare entrambi? Questa storia porta il lettore per le strade di Firenze e i paesi del nord Italia, e da Montecarlo fino ad una piccola cittadina del Kansas. Volontà è una storia eccitante e misteriosa.
