Speculation built empires—and destroyed them just as fast. In Burn the Ledger, David G. Stone traces the blood trail of market manias through the men who lit the match. From stockjobbers in powdered wigs to turtlenecked tech gods, this audiobook unearths the thrilling, often reckless, and always revealing stories of the risk-takers who pushed markets to the brink. These weren’t just investors—they were manipulators, visionaries, and con artists who thought the rules didn’t apply to them.

En El triunfo del dinero Niall Ferguson demuestra que la historia de las finanzas es el trasfondo de toda la Historia. ¿Cuándo pasó el dinero de metal a papel? ¿Por qué los tipos de interés suben y bajan como un yoyó? ¿Por qué la gente nunca aprende que las burbujas bursátiles siempre acaban estallando? ¿Por qué los seguros ya no son la mejor manera de protegerse contra el riesgo?

Warren Buffett has repeatedly acknowledged Benjamin Graham, a man he personally studied and worked under, as the primary influence on his investment approach. Indeed, there is a direct line between the record-shattering investing performance of Buffett (and other value investors) and Graham's life. In six books and dozens of papers, Graham—widely known as the "Dean of Wall Street"—left an extensive account of an investing system that, as Buffett can attest to, actually works!

The Austrian School of Economics - a movement that has had a vast impact on economics, politics, and society, especially among the American right - is poorly understood by supporters and detractors alike. Defining themselves in opposition to the mainstream, economists such as Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich Hayek, and Joseph Schumpeter built the School’s international reputation with their work on business cycles and monetary theory. In this collective biography, Janek Wasserman brings these figures to life....

Las consecuencias económicas de la paz es un análisis profético sobre las repercusiones económicas de la Primera Guerra Mundial y los errores cometidos en la Conferencia de Paz de París en 1919. Keynes argumenta que las condiciones impuestas a Alemania llevarían a un resentimiento duradero y a futuros conflictos. Su obra desafía las políticas económicas predominantes de la época y advierte sobre las devastadoras consecuencias de imponer reparaciones excesivas a los países derrotados.

In recent years, the world has been rocked by major economic crises, most notably the devastating collapse of Lehman Brothers, the largest bankruptcy in American history, which triggered the breathtakingly destructive sub-prime disaster. What sparks these vast economic calamities? Why do our economic policy makers fail to protect us from such upheavals? In Wrong, economist Richard Grossman addresses such questions, shining a light on the poor thinking behind nine of the worst economic policy mistakes of the past 200 years, missteps whose outcomes ranged from appalling to tragic.

Immigration is a fraught and misunderstood topic in America’s social discourse, with much of what we believe based largely on myth. Ran Abramitzky and Leah Boustan have spent the last decade searching for the facts. Their pioneering research digs deep into the data on immigration, linking the experiences of immigrants from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to those of immigrants today. Using powerful storytelling alongside big data, they provide new evidence about the past and present of the American Dream that will change our thinking and policies.

Sinds de crisis hebben we vaak negatieve associaties bij de financiële wereld. Beurzen zijn gokhallen, bankiers zijn graaiers, beleggers impulsief. Maar is dit terecht? In hun colleges "De wereld van het geld" onderzoeken economisch historici Joost Jonker en Oscar Gelderblom de wereld van het geld. De wereld van biljetten en bitcoins, belasting en bedrijven, beurzen en beleggen, banken en crises. De financiële sector is niet altijd even doorzichtig, maar heeft wel enorme invloed. We hebben er veel aan te danken: niet alleen materiële welvaart, maar ook vrede en stabiliteit.
