Book Description
Gabrielle Landing a job at Pryce Enterprises is like winning the lottery. Everybody tries, but there’s only one winner. I, Gabrielle Hernandez, was just hired as the executive assistant to Ethan Pryce—yes that Pryce. The man who owns the whole damn company. People say he’s cold, shrewd, aloof. When he interviewed me, I didn’t get that vibe at all. Shrewd and aloof maybe, but not cold. All I know is that he likes to be in control. But he doesn’t intimidate me. I am a strong, independent woman. And I plan to stay that way. At least that was the plan… Ethan As the CEO of Pryce Enterprises, my day is filled with meetings and business dealings. I took over the company a few years ago, after my brother wasn’t interested. Which is just fine, because I’ve made the company worth billions. When Gabrielle Hernandez is hired as my executive assistant, I try, in vain, to ignore my attraction to her. But day in and day out, my feelings grow stronger. I want to reveal my feelings, but I’m scared she’ll hate me. Or worse, reject me. Or hell, she could even sue me. But she doesn’t. Our love and passion burns hotter than the sun. Our story is one for eternity.

A Moral History of the Inflation
Author: Hans Ostwald
Publisher: The Obolus Press
ISBN: 1777499534
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Journalist Hans Ostwald (1873–1940) describes life in Germany during the early 1920s, a period when money lost its value so quickly that people used eggs rather than cash as units of exchange. Rich in anecdotes and contemporary reports, the book discusses both the social and psychological effects of the hyperinflation: grinding poverty, an increase in crime, a decline in moral standards, and a frenzied desire to make the most of the present, since no one could be certain of what the future might hold. “It was a time of significant revaluation — in material as well as in spiritual things. He who had been rich and able to indulge in every worldly pleasure soon counted himself lucky if some well-meaning people offered him a bowl of warm soup. Lowly clerks became bank directors overnight, with seemingly inexhaustible funds at their command. In those days, for- eigners who lived on small pensions at home could come to Germany and live like kings. Everything seemed to have been turned upside down.” Although Ostwald’s moral history has often been cited in works dealing with the Weimar Republic, this is the first complete English translation. It contains more than a hundred photographs and illustrations.

When A Billion Chinese Jump
Author: Jonathan S. Watts
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439141932
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 626
Book Description
As a young child, Jonathan Watts believed if everyone in China jumped at the same time, the earth would be shaken off its axis, annihilating mankind. Now, more than thirty years later, as a correspondent for The Guardian in Beijing, he has discovered it is not only foolish little boys who dread a planet-shaking leap by the world’s most populous nation. When a Billion Chinese Jump is a road journey into the future of our species. Traveling from the mountains of Tibet to the deserts of Inner Mongolia via the Silk Road, tiger farms, cancer villages, weather-modifying bases, and eco-cities, Watts chronicles the environmental impact of economic growth with a series of gripping stories from the country on the front line of global development. He talks to nomads and philosophers, entrepreneurs and scientists, rural farmers and urban consumers, examining how individuals are trying to adapt to one of the most spectacular bursts of change in human history, then poses a question that will affect all of our lives: Can China find a new way forward or is this giant nation doomed to magnify the mistakes that have already taken humanity to the brink of disaster?
