In "Nature's Fortune," Mark Tercek, CEO of The Nature Conservancy and former investment banker, and science writer Jonathan Adams argue that nature is not only the foundation of human well-being, but also the smartest commercial investment any business or government can make.

9780465031894 TURNAROUND: THIRD WORLD LESSONS FOR FIRST WORLD GROWTH (Hard Cover) PETER BLAIR HENRY PGW S$44.00 BUS

Newcomers to financial investment can find dozens of advice books written especially for them, but this brand-new title is a book with a difference. It speaks directly to you—if you’re an investor with a portfolio worth $100,000 or more. The well-known investment advisor and bestselling author Phil DeMuthaddresses the bread-and-butter issues facing that underserved segment of the equities investment community.

Thirty years ago, China seemed hopelessly mired in poverty, Mexico triggered the Third World Debt Crisis, and Brazil suffered under hyperinflation. Since then, these and other developing countries have turned themselves around, while First World nations, battered by crises, depend more than ever on sustained growth in emerging markets. In "Turnaround," economist Peter Blair Henry argues that the secret to emerging countries' success (and ours) is discipline--sustained commitment to a pragmatic growth strategy. With the global economy teetering on the brink, the stakes are higher than ever.

"The End of the Euro" begins with an overview of the birth of the euro itself. Understanding this history is essential to understand the anomalies built into the project from the beginning. These anomalies form the subject of chapter two, along with how they led to the situation that turned Greece, Portugal, and Spain into euro-destroying economic disaster areas. Chapter three shows how this was not an unforeseeable situation, as Europe's history is filled with earlier failed attempts to build monetary unions.

9780983263326 THE DECISION MAKER(Hard Cover) DANNIS BAKKE PGW S$41.00 BUS

Who makes the important decisions in your organization? Strategy, product development, budgeting, compensation--such key decisions typically are made by company leaders. That's what bosses are for, right? But maybe the boss isn't the best person to make the call. That's the conclusion Dennis Bakke came to, and he used it to build AES into a Fortune 200 global power company with 27,000 people in 27 countries. He used it again to create Imagine Schools, the largest non-profit charter-school network in the U.S. As a student at Harvard Business School,Bakke made hundreds of decisions using the case-study method.

When You Walk Through the Storm is the moving story of Anne Williams, whose son Kevin died in the Hillsborough disaster in 1989. It is a remarkable personal account of a mother's determination to discover the true circumstances of her son's death on that tragic afternoon. She vividly relates the grief she felt when sherealised Kevin wasn't coming home, followed by the anger she experienced on discovering that he could have been saved. In the aftermath of the tragedy, controversy raged over who had been responsible for the events, and Anne describes her feelings towards those who, she felt, had blood on their hands.

On October 12, 2000, eleven months before the 9/11 attacks, the USS "Cole" docked in the port of Aden in Yemen for a routine fueling stop. At 1118, on a hot, sunny morning, the 8,400-ton destroyer was rocked by an enormous explosion. The ship's commander, Kirk Lippold, felt the ship violently thrust up and to the right, as everything not bolted down seemed to float in midair. Tiles tumbled from the ceiling, and the ship was plunged into darkness, beginning to sink. In a matter of moments Lippold knew that the "Cole "had been attacked. What he didn't know was how much the world was changing around him.

9780465032921 MATH ON TRIAL: HOW NUMBERS GET USED AND ABUSED IN THE COURTROOM (Hard Cover) LEILA SCHNEPSPGW S$44.00 SCI It is one of the wonders of

mathematics that, for every problem mathematicians solve, another awaits to perplex and galvanize them. Some of these problems are new, while others have puzzled and bewitched thinkers across the ages. Such challenges offer a tantalizing glimpse of the field's unlimited potential, and keep mathematicians looking toward the horizons of intellectual possibility. In "Visions of Infinity," celebrated mathematician Ian Stewart provides a fascinating overview of the most formidable problems mathematicians have vanquished, and those that vex them still.

In the wrong hands, math can be deadly. Even the simplest numbers can become powerful forces when manipulated by politicians or the media, but in the case of the law, your liberty--and your life--can depend on the right calculation. In "Math on Trial," mathematicians LeilaSchneps and Coralie Colmezdescribe ten trials spanning from the nineteenth century to today, in which mathematical arguments were used--and disastrously misused--as evidence.

9780552778060 PARADOX (Soft Cover) JIM AL-KHALILI TRANSWORLD S$19.00 SCI

This book is about my own personal favourite puzzles and conundrums in science, all of which have famously been referred to as paradoxes, but which turn out not to be paradoxes at all when considered carefully and viewed from the right angle. A true paradox is a statement that leads to a circular and self-contradictory argument, or one that describes a logically impossible situation. Our subject is 'perceived paradoxes' -questions or thought-experiments that on first encounter seem impossible to answer, but which science has been able to solve.

In this book, Joyce Meyer starts by examining the nature of habits. The first habit - and most important one to have -is the God Habit. By making it a habit to start your day by reading the Bible and communing with God, asking for His help in your efforts and His strength and sustenance, the stage is set for overcoming the habits you want to break and establishing new ones in their place.
