I discovered this book on a trip through the White Mountains of Arizona, where I was born. After reading the book I have purchased several more copies as gifts and had them sent direct from Amazon. For anyone interested in Native American culture, shamanism, connecting with and understanding the creatures that share the Earth with us, this is a "must have" book. Animals speak about the events and emotions in our lives. For a writer the book brings a wealth of background character information. Have you ever dreamt about an animal, a panther, a snake, a bear or a hawk?

Do Deficits Matter? by Daniel Shaviro
Few topics in American politics are more discussed and less understood than the federal budget deficit. We frequently hear that deficit reduction is vital to our prosperity, but we rarely hear why this might be so. The deficit is blamed for all manner of economic ills, ranging from high interest rates to unemployment to the trade deficit to the low rate of national saving to low productivity growth—whichever seems most crucial at the moment—but little attention is paid to why it might have any of these effects. The near unanimity in public discourse about the evil of deficits might seem to suggest that economists are similarly unanimous. In fact, however, they disagree fundamentally about whether deficits matter, and, if so, then why. They have been debating these issues for more than two centuries, with consensus occasionally emerging but not persisting.
The Works of Nikolai D Kondratiev / Major Works / Pickering and Chatto Publishers - Shop site
Nikolai Dmitrievich Kondratiev (1892-1938) ranks as one of the greatest Russian economists of all time. He was tutored in St Petersburg before the revolution by M I Tugan-Baranovsky, and his work led indirectly to the Mathematical school of Soviet economists exemplified by L V Kantorovich. Kondratiev is famous for conducting the first systematic econometric investigation into the idea of long cycles in the world economy, and for the creation of a centre for the study of business cycles, the Conjuncture Institute, in Moscow in 1920.

Green Recovery: Get Lean, Get Smart, and Emerge from the Downturn on Top - Harvard Business Review
I have read and praised Natural Capitalism: Creating the Next Industrial Revolution , The Ecology of Commerce and Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things here at Amazon, and I mention them to emphasize that this book, "Green to Gold," is the hands-down no-contest best primer for top management. The others are intellectual presentations. This is a business oriented primer with lots of facts, lists, and resources.

Spontaneous Evolution: Our Positive Future and How to get There from Here (9781591799641): Bruce Lipton, Steve Bhaerman: Books
This is an excellent audio book, and the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that many of the initial concepts discussed are not that new. Early on, I was starting to wonder if this book would produce any novel, imaginative ideas . . . good for the beginner anyway. But the last part was worth it all. Even though it's good to see many of our cherished, albeit corrupt societal ideals knocked down these days, what do we have to replace them?Frequency: The Power of Personal Vibration (9781582702124): Penney Peirce: Books
This is the best book I have ever read and "used." I will give a long review below that is necessary for me to explain how magnificent this book has been for me. For those of you that aren't interested in my story - I can tell you that if you have ever pondered existence, intuition, coincidence, energy, realities, unity, spirituality, clairvoyance, consciousness, enlightenment, quantum physics, personal development, transcendence, transformation, happiness and more - you must own this book. This is the only book I have ever read that seemed as if it was written directly to me. This book gave me what I have been seeking. It has given me a clear and easy path to follow to become the person I have always hoped to be and it is working!Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy (Second Edition) (9781891396519): Joseph A. Schumpeter: Books
Review “The great economist Joseph Schumpeter highlighted the role of innovation in powering the rise of new industries, the creative destruction of existing ones, and the growth in prosperity of economies.” (Richard Florida, Atlantic ) “Schumpeter was the most farsighted of twentieth-century economists.For over forty years, David Harvey has been one of the world's most trenchant and critical analysts of capitalist development. In The Enigma of Capital , he delivers an impassioned account of how unchecked neoliberalism produced the system-wide crisis that now engulfs the world. Beginning in the 1970s, profitability pressures led the capitalist class in advanced countries to shift away from investment in industrial production at home toward the higher returns that financial products promised. Accompanying this was a shift towards privatization, an absolute decline in the bargaining power of labor, and the dispersion of production throughout the developing world.
