Hardback. Condizione: Good. ?John Tamny is a one-man antidote to economic obfuscation and mystification.? ?George Will, Nationally Syndicated Columnist ?In spirit, Tamny does for economics what the Gutenberg printing press did for the Bible, making a previously inaccessible subject open to all. Equally important, he does to economists what Toto did to the Wizard of Oz: pulling aside the curtain to expose the fraud that has become modern economics.?  ?Steve Forbes, Chairman and Editor-in-Chief, Forbes Media                                                         ?Ignore John Tamny?s easy to read Popular Economics at your own moral peril. It?s as close to spiritual as you get in this realm?a better tutorial than any econ text.? - Ken Fisher, Founder & CEO, Fisher Investments    ?John?s book is many things. It?s a great way to learn economics, it?s a very strong case for economic   liberty, and it is an epic myth-buster. I will be giving it out to friends, of all viewpoints, for a long, long time.? - Cliff Asness, Managing Principal, AQR Capital  ECONOMICS 101 In Popular Economics:  What the Rolling Stones, Downton Abbey, and LeBron James Can Teach You About Economics (Regnery Publishing; April 13, 2015; $27.99) Tamny translates the so-called difficult and intimidating subject of economics into plain language, revealing that there is nothing mysterious about finance, commerce, and budgets. In fact, we are all microeconomists in our daily lives.  ?Economics is easy, and its lessons are all around us,? says Tamny. ?But Americans have allowed the so-called ?experts? to convince them they can?t understand, much less grow the economy. Happily, economic growth is simple, too. If you can understand the four basic elements of economic growth?taxes, regulation, trade, and money? prosperity will explode.? Much like Freakonomics, Tamny uses pop culture and engaging stories to illustrate how understanding our economy is common sense?just look no further than the movies we enjoy, the sports we watch, and what we do every day. In Popular Economics, you?ll discover:   How Paris Hilton and the Dallas Cowboys help illustrate good and bad tax policyHow Facebook and Monday Night Football demonstrate the debilitating effect of antitrust regulationHow the simple act of cooking chicken wings reveals why the ?floating dollar? is a recipe for disasterWhy Downton Abbey and ESPN are evidence that the U.S. should bulldoze its tax code. …

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A panoramic narrative history that will give readers a new understanding of the Rolling Stones, viewed through the impassioned and opinionated lens of the Vanity Fair contributor--and co-creator of HBO's Vinyl--who was along for the ride as a young reporter on the road with the band in the 1990s Rich Cohen enters the Stones epic as a young journalist on the road with the band and quickly falls under their sway--privy to the jokes, the camaraderie, the bitchiness, the hard living. Inspired by a lifelong appreciation of the music that borders on obsession, Cohen's chronicle of the band is informed by the rigorous views of a kid who grew up on the music and for whom the Stones will always be the greatest rock 'n' roll band of all time. The story begins at the beginning: the fateful meeting of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards on a train platform in 1961--and goes on to span decades, with a focus on the golden run--from the albums Beggars Banquet (1968) to Exile on Main Street (1972)--when the Stones were prolific and innovative and at the height of their powers. Cohen is equally as good on the low points as the highs, and he puts his finger on the moments that not only defined the Stones as gifted musicians schooled in the blues and arguably the most innovative songwriters of their generation, but as the avatars of so much in our modern culture. In the end, though, after the drugs and the girlfriends and the rows, there is the music. The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones makes you want to listen to every song in your library anew and search out the obscure gems that you've yet to hear. The music, together with Cohen's fresh and galvanizing consideration of the band, will define, once and forever, why the Stones will always matter. Praise for The Sun & The Moon & The Rolling Stones Fabulous . . . The research is meticulous. . . . Cohen's own interviews even yield some new Stones lore.--The Wall Street Journal Cohen] can catch the way a record can seem to remake the world and] how songs make a world you can't escape.--Pitchfork No one can tell this story, wringing new life even from the leathery faces of mummies like the Rolling Stones, like Rich Cohen. . . .

Paperback. Condizione: Good. In this breathtaking cultural history filled with exclusive, never-before-revealed details, celebrated rock journalist Joel Selvin tells the definitive story of the Rolling Stones' infamous Altamont concert, the disastrous historic event that marked the end of the idealistic 1960s. In the annals of rock history, the Altamont Speedway Free Festival on December 6, 1969, has long been seen as the distorted twin of Woodstock-the day that shattered the Sixties' promise of peace and love when a concertgoer was killed by a member of the Hells Angels, the notorious biker club acting as security. While most people know of the events from the film Gimme Shelter, the whole story has remained buried in varied accounts, rumor, and myth-until now. Altamont explores rock's darkest day, a fiasco that began well before the climactic death of Meredith Hunter and continued beyond that infamous December night. Joel Selvin probes every aspect of the show-from the Stones' hastily planned tour preceding the concert to the bad acid that swept through the audience to other deaths that also occurred that evening-to capture the full scope of the tragedy and its aftermath. He also provides an in-depth look at the Grateful Dead's role in the events leading to Altamont, examining the band's behind-the-scenes presence in both arranging the show and hiring the Hells Angels as security. The product of twenty years of exhaustive research and dozens of interviews with many key players, including medical staff, Hells Angels members, the stage crew, and the musicians who were there, and featuring sixteen pages of color photos, Altamont is the ultimate account of the final event in rock's formative and most turbulent decade.…

Hardback. Condizione: Fair. A revelation about the Rolling Stones and their times, based on archives of material, originally amassed by Bill Wyman. Hotchner explores the Stones' humble musical beginnings in London and traces their lives and times to a horrific climax in 1969 - a year when Brian Jones was found dead at the bottom of his swimming pool, when Charles Manson perpetrated a series of gruesome murders, when Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix died of overdoses and when the Hells Angels brutally murdered a man at Altamount while the Stones played on. The author looks beyond to the consolidation of their reputation as the definitive rock group of their decade. The book also presents the real truth about their notorious sex lives, exorbitant drug habits and explosive creativity. Finally, Hotchner unravels the mystery of Brian Jones' death and exposes the turmoil within the rock group that led to a blood struggle in the final days of Jones' life. The author also wrote "Papa Hemingway", "Doris Day" and "Sophia".…
