› Find signed collectible books: 'Age Shock and Pension Power: How Finance Is Failing Us'
A searing look at the fiscal crisis of an aging society, with radical new proposals.
The last few years have shown how badly the financial services industry performs as a custodian of savings and pension funds. The "skimming" of US mutual funds, the see-saw of the stock markets and a string of business scandals from Enron to Parmalat have wiped billions from the savings of employees on both sides of the Atlantic. They have also exposed the absence of responsibility at the heart of what Robin Blackburn calls 'grey capitalism.'
Here, Blackburn takes forward the argument of his acclaimed Banking on Death and explains why attempts to meet the costs of the ageing society through a proliferation of financial products are doomed to fail and have a host of unfortunate side-effects. In fact, 'financial engineering,' as it is called, has enabled corporations to escape taxation while allowing a new breed of chief executive to accumulate extravagant fortunes at the expense of shareholder and employee alike.
The author does not just expose problems, however; he also explores solutions. Blackburn identifies new sources of pension financeespecially ways of ensuring that corporations make a real contributionand sketches the shape of a progressive and responsible pension fund regime, embracing all citizens and accountable to them.

Uncovers one of the biggest secrets of the twentieth century.
In 1945, US Intelligence officers in Manila discovered that the Japanese had hidden large quantities of gold bullion and other looted treasure in the Philippines. President Truman decided to recover the gold but to keep its riches secret. These would be combined with treasure recovered inside Japan during the US occupation, and with Nazi loot recovered in Europe, to create a worldwide American political action fund to fight communism.
Overseen by General MacArthur, President Truman, and John Foster Dulles, this 'Black Gold' gave Washington virtually limitless, unaccountable funds, providing an asset base to reinforce the treasuries of America's allies, to bribe political and military leaders, and to manipulate elections in foreign countries for more than fifty years. Drawing on a vast range of original documents and thousands of hours of interviews, Gold Warriors exposes one of the great state secrets of the twentieth century.

Excerpted from a review by Ginny Silva in Christian Parenting Today: "This book offers much-needed encouragement to families who are tired of hearing society's endless whine about the impossibility of mothers staying home to raise their own children. The fact is, it can be done, and it is being done, with ingenuity and good cheer. The book is short on sermonizing,it assumes a readership that is already convinced that staying home is best, but doesn't quite know how to make it work. Her Eleven Miserly Guidelines are completely practical, and at the top of the list is the most important: "Don't confuse frugality with depriving yourself." [via]

Patrick Bateman est un jeune homme riche, beau et intelligent. Un golden boy de Wall Street à qui tout réussit. Il est par ailleurs parfaitement au fait des techniques de nettoyage et désincrustage de la peau les plus efficaces, il s'applique les meilleures crèmes pour le visage, ne porte que des vêtements de grands couturiers, utilise les derniers gadgets technologiques et passe ses soirées au Tunnel, la boîte branchée du moment. Bien sûr, tous ses amis sont comme lui.
La seule différence, c'est qu'en plus Patrick Bateman viole, torture et tue. Mais il ne ressent jamais rien. Juste une légère contrariété lorsque ses scénarii ne se déroulent pas exactement comme prévu. À sa sortie en 1991, le roman d'Ellis suscita une vive émotion, aussi bien à cause de ses scènes d'horreur décrites quasi cliniquement que de son principal personnage, Bateman, symbole de la réussite économique, enfant prodige travesti en tueur sadique et immoral. Il faut dire qu'Ellis s'attaque de front à tous les excès de superficialité de l'Occident contemporain : sexe, culte du corps, de la richesse et de la jeunesse. Une entreprise de destruction commencée très tôt avec son premier roman Moins que zéro écrit alors qu'il avait 22 ans et que l'on retrouve dans Glamorama. Bret Easton Ellis ou l'art de mettre de l'acide sur les plaies béantes de la société. --Stellio Paris [via]
