Banking on Fraud

Drexel, Junk Bonds, and Buyouts

By: Mary Zey

In analyzing the fraud-facilitated leveraged buyouts engineered by Michael Milken and the firm of Drexel Burnham Lambert, the author suggests that such buyouts have multiple and extensive consequences for the organization of business and the economy. Zey also demonstrates how ordinary bond trading networks were linked to the extraordinary networks of the Boesky Organizations and Employee Private Partnerships in order to defraud bond issuers and buyers. This book debunks the myth of rational economic organization in the 1980s and establishes broad implications for theories of organizational deviance.

The Marriage between Perfume and the Lyric Stage

The Essence of Opera

The Marriage between Perfume and the Lyric Stage

The Essence of Opera

By: Mary May Robertson

“But what is this scent of balmy air? What this ray of light in my tomb? I seem to see an angel, amid a scent of roses” sings Florestan in Fidelio, Beethoven’s only opera. The role of scents, smells, fragrances, and odours in opera has long been neglected, just as how much opera and its stars have influenced the world of perfumery from the nineteenth century to the present day. In the first book-length study on the topic, Professor Mary May Robertson explores the relationship between opera, perfumes, and their respective protagonists in order to map out the previously undiscussed connection between the two. Through compelling close readings of librettos and rigorous research through thousands of bottles of perfume, the reader will come to appreciate and recognise the influences and exchanges between operas and perfumes and their ultimate marriage in the previously unrecognised genre of Operatic Perfumes, which is to say, perfumes named after operas, composers, and their divas.

World Clothing and Fashion

An Encyclopedia of History, Culture, and Social Influence

By: Mary Ellen Snodgrass

Taking a global, multicultural, social, and economic perspective, this work explores the diverse and colourful history of human attire. From prehistoric times to the age of globalization, articles cover the evolution of clothing utility, style, production, and commerce, including accessories (shoes, hats, gloves, handbags, and jewellery) for men, women, and children. Dress for different climates, occupations, recreational activities, religious observances, rites of passages, and other human needs and purposes - from hunting and warfare to sports and space exploration - are examined in depth and detail. Fashion and design trends in diverse historical periods, regions and countries, and social and ethnic groups constitute a major area of coverage, as does the evolution of materials (from animal fur to textiles to synthetic fabrics) and production methods (from sewing and weaving to industrial manufacturing and computer-aided design). Dress as a reflection of social status, intellectual and artistic trends, economic conditions, cultural exchange, and modern media marketing are recurring themes. Influential figures and institutions in fashion design, industry and manufacturing, retail sales, production technologies, and related fields are also covered.

A Consumer's Guide to Archaeological Science

Analytical Techniques

By: Mary E. Malainey

Many archaeologists, as primarily social scientists, do not have a background in the natural sciences. This can pose a problem because they need to obtain chemical and physical analyses on samples to perform their research. This manual is an essential source of information for those students without a background in science, but also a comprehensive overview that those with some understanding of archaeological science will find useful. The manual provides readers with the knowledge to use archaeological science methods to the best advantage. It describes and explains the analytical techniques in a manner that the average archaeologist can understand, and outlines clearly the requirements, benefits, and limitations of each possible method of analysis, so that the researcher can make informed choices. The work includes specific information about a variety of dating techniques, provenance studies, isotope analysis as well as the analysis of organic (lipid and protein) residues and ancient DNA. Case studies illustrating applications of these approaches to most types of archaeological materials are presented and the instruments used to perform the analyses are described. Available destructive and non-destructive approaches are presented to help archaeologists select the most effective technique for gaining the target information from the sample. Readers will reach for this manual whenever they need to decide how to best analyze a sample, and how the analysis is performed.

Art, Education, and African-American Culture

Albert Barnes and the Science of Philanthropy

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Art, Education, and African-American Culture

Albert Barnes and the Science of Philanthropy

By: Mary Ann Meyers

A physician who applied his knowledge of chemistry to the manufacture of a widely used antiseptic, Albert Barnes is best remembered as one of the great American art collectors. The Barnes Foundation, which houses his treasures, is a fabled repository of Impressionist, post-Impressionist, and early modern paintings. Less well known is the fact that Barnes attributed his passion for collecting art to his youthful experience of African-American culture, especially music. Art, Education, and African-American Culture is both a biography of an iconoclastic and innovative figure and a study of the often-conflicted efforts of an emergent liberalism to seek out and showcase African American contributions to the American aesthetic tradition. Mary Ann Meyers examines Barnes's background and career and the development and evolution of his enthusiasm for collecting pictures and sculpture. She shows how Barnes's commitment to breaking down invidious distinctions and his use of the uniquely arranged works in his collection as textbooks for his school, created a milieu where masterpieces of European and American late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century painting, along with rare and beautiful African art objects, became a backdrop for endless feuding. A gallery requiring renovation, a trust prohibiting the loan or sale of a single picture, and the efforts of Lincoln University, known as the "black Princeton," to balance conflicting needs and obligations all conspired to create a legacy of legal entanglement and disputes that remain in contention. This volume is neither an idealized account of a quixotic do-gooder nor is it a critique of a crank. While fully documenting Barnes's notorious eccentricities along with the clashing interests of the main personalities associated with his Foundation, Meyers eschews moral posturing in favor of a rich mosaic of peoples and institutions that illustrate many of the larger themes of American culture in general and African-American culture in particular.

Managing a Financial Windfall

By: Susan Bradley,Mary Martin

From inheritances and divorce and insurance settlements to retirement payouts and the most recent phenomenon of stock options, the largest transfer of wealth in the history of America is now taking place. For some, this welcome event is relatively stress-free. But for those who are inexperienced in dealing with large sums of money, a windfall can be an overwhelming, even losing, situation. What is the difference between those who build on their financial gains and those who end up worse off than before? In this much-needed, one-of-a-kind book, top financial planner Susan Bradley gets to the heart of the matter by examining the emotional complexity of the windfall experience and how to manage it-and your newfound money-successfully. Whatever the sum involved, the impact of one's emotional state on the way money is handled--or mishandled--cannot be underestimated. In addition to the legal intricacies of receiving sudden money, the element of surprise that catches people unprepared also often leaves them there. Here, at last, is a type of "owner's manual" to sudden money that demystifies the process for recipients and their financial planners. Based on her work with countless clients, many of whose stories appear in this book, Bradley has developed a step-by-step program for moving safely through the three phases of building a solid financial foundation: Preparation and Planning Investing Monitoring, Giving, and Sharing Giving individual attention to each possible windfall event, Bradley addresses their distinct tax consequences, insurance and estate planning considerations, as well as the crucial emotional component. She also shares advice on how to put together the proper team of advisors, including an attorney and a therapist. When correctly handled, an unexpected windfall can provide expected benefits that will continue far beyond the lifetime of the initial recipient---and turn sudden money into lasting wealth. Turn Sudden Money into Lasting Wealth Maximize your wealth and minimize your stress and confusion with this unique, indispensable guide to handling a sudden financial windfall.

"A 'must read' for financial advisors and for clients who have received financial windfalls. Susan Bradley has detailed--in an easy-to-apply way--a new financial planning discipline that is sure to become a vital part of discussions about the burgeoning wealth in this country." —Ronni Burns, Wall Street consultant "This book is essential for anyone who receives a financial windfall. It's an easy read and packed with useful advice." —Don Phillips, CEO, Morningstar "Reading this book is like having a trusted friend explain what to expect, what to do, and what not to do at a happy time that can also be overwhelming and stressful.

Buffettology Workbook

Value Investing The Buffett Way

By: Mary Buffett

In the past eighteen months, investors have seen rapid, often intimidating changes in the stock market-tech stocks have soared and crashed and assets that shifted away from traditional blue chip companies have quickly shifted back again. In spite of this volatility however, there has been one constant: Warren Buffet's value investing strategies make money. In BUFFETOLOGY, Mary Buffet and David Clark unveiled the analysis techniques that made Warren Buffet the billionaire and investment icon he is today. Now in this companion workbook, the authors explain Buffet's system of business perspective investing, focusing on specific mathematical ratios and calculations. Written in clear, easy-to-understand language, THE BUFFETTOLOGY WORKBOOK offers everyone with or without an Internet connection the tools they'll need to apply the same kind of value analysis to readily available financial data that Warren Buffet does.

Banish Debt, Grow Your Money and Unlock Financial Freedom in 10 Weeks - INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

By: Ken Okoroafor,Mary Okoroafor

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER As seen on ITV's This Morning! A life-changing 10-week plan to help you to turn your life around and design a path to financial freedom, enriched with the small experiences that bring you joy. Stop worrying about money. Start enjoying your life. You might be struggling in debt, living paycheque to paycheque, or worried about preparing for retirement; maybe you're considering your first investment, or you just want an escape plan from the '9 to 5'. Wherever you are on your journey, this book will revolutionize your lifestyle and your relationship with money. Authors Ken and Mary Okoroafor started out as resource-poor, working-class immigrants and have built a life of financial independence and joyful moments through hard work, smart saving and savvy investing. They know what it feels like to start from ground zero, and as a chartered accountant and former CFO, Ken shares his financial expertise to help you unlock the secret to building wealth. You'll learn how to take control of your finances, develop good money habits, become debt-free, invest in assets and multiply your income so you can create the freedom to travel, spend time with your loved ones and plan for a stress-free (early) retirement - all whilst prioritising your wellbeing and having fun! It also includes a dozen real-life interviews with singles, couples and those with children, from different backgrounds, age groups and stages of their money journey, including a few well-known public figures. Financial joy can be achieved by anyone - and it can start today, not tomorrow. 'The book that's been missing from this genre. A joy to read and learn from.' -- Cait Flanders, bestselling author of THE YEAR OF LESS and ADVENTURES IN OPTING OUT 'A book to savour' - JL Collins, author of the international bestseller The Simple Path to Wealth 'The most joyful money book out there' - Selina Flavius, author of Black Girl Finance Sunday Times Bestseller No.6 in Paperback Non-fiction April 2024
