Book Description
Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

Pages : 373
Book Description
Maria Martinez has been a professional psychic for over forty-five years. During that time, she has come across ghosts, spirits, and a myriad of different specters as she has continually tried to assist clients with the betterment of their lives. Whether it’s telling clients the future of their love life or their business, she has been instrumental in the betterment of many lives. Maria has even been credited with saving and prolonging the lives of many of her clients over the years through several different means, including early detection of cancers long before any medical professional would have been sought out. Maria has worked with law enforcement to solve many crimes when they had no leads or the victim had sadly passed on. Maria has also been studied by the UCLA paranormal division and found to be one of the most gifted psychics of our time. Between speaking engagements and conducting paranormal investigations, Maria has been able to chronicle some of the most influential stories and has laid them within the pages of this book. After her greatest spirit investigation that lead to the publication of Finding Aimée, Maria had multiple requests to publish her own findings and now 7th Sense has actually arrived.

The Age of the Unthinkable
Author: Joshua Cooper Ramo
Publisher: Hachette+ORM
ISBN: 0316070017
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Today the very ideas that made America great imperil its future. Our plans go awry and policies fail. History's grandest war against terrorism creates more terrorists. Global capitalism, intended to improve lives, increases the gap between rich and poor. Decisions made to stem a financial crisis guarantee its worsening. Environmental strategies to protect species lead to their extinction. The traditional physics of power has been replaced by something radically different. In The Age of the Unthinkable, Joshua Cooper Ramo puts forth a revelatory new model for understanding our dangerously unpredictable world. Drawing upon history, economics, complexity theory, psychology, immunology, and the science of networks, he describes a new landscape of inherent unpredictability -- and remarkable, wonderful possibility.
