In this evocative novel, Solomon Deheftner achieves fame as a stage magician and escapologist in the tradition of the Great Houdini. But he abandons that career to search for something far more elusive: the profound magic inherent in mystical transcendence. Using his knowledge of conjuring and his Jewish upbringing as a foundation, Deheftner makes his way from New York to San Francisco, probing the secrets of Yoga, meditation, vegetarianism, animal intelligence, bondage, and sadomasochism in his quest for spiritual enlightenment.
Through personal anecdotes and relatable stories of real traders, Goldstein explores the inner world of trading and reveals how our attitudes and misconceptions can prevent us from achieving our full potential. Goldstein introduces his powerful model, the Performance Process Cycle, which teaches traders how to overcome their emotions and biases, improve self-awareness, and make sense of how they are impacted by their interactions with markets and uncertainty. By applying this model, traders can develop an unparalleled level of calm and objectivity, enabling them to navigate the treacherous terrain of financial markets with ease. With Goldstein’s guidance, traders will be inspired to reflect on their own behaviours, beliefs, and actions as they work towards mastering the mental game of trading.
China has undergone dramatic change in its economic institutions in recent years, but surprisingly little change politically. Somehow, the political institutions seem capable of governing a vastly more complex market economy and a rapidly changing labor force. One possible explanation, examined in Zouping Revisited, is that within the old organizational molds there have been subtle but profound changes to the ways these governing bodies actually work. The authors take as a case study the local government of Zouping County and find that it has been able to evolve significantly through ad hoc bureaucratic adaptations and accommodations that drastically change the operation of government institutions. Zouping has long served as a window into local-level Chinese politics, economy, and culture. In this volume, top scholars analyze the most important changes in the county over the last two decades. The picture that emerges is one of institutional agility and creativity as a new form of resilience within an authoritarian regime.
A novel about a family even more dysfunctional than the one you grew up in. Will's Surreal Period is a richly satisfying tale-at times laugh-out-loud hilarious and at times deeply moving-that features a rollickingly dysfunctional family, a seemingly endless array of succulent foodstuffs, and a brain tumor that transforms a mediocre painter into a virtuoso. Now toss in a smidgen of BDSM and a few beguiling tidbits exploring brain chemistry and human evolution, and you have a story that will hook you fast and captivate you till the end. "Will's Surreal Period proves why works of fiction are high art. . . . Robert Steven Goldstein deftly converts our raw human foibles into emotive entertainment and, as he does, reminds us, sometimes painfully, sometimes hilariously, who we are." -MICHAEL J. COFFINO, award-winning author of Truth Is in the House
