Lewis Pinault experienced an interesting phenomenon after the publication of Consulting Demons – instead of shunning him, consultants of every stripe were eager to echo his experiences, and wanted him to test and assess consulting techniques being developed in light of the new economic regime. In this environment, Pinault discovered how consultants were changing to keep up with the leaner economy, and his role as a consultant to consultants led to an invitation to join EDS as its VP of Consumer Industries and Retail. Against this background, Pinault again draws back the curtain on the professional services industry, this time revealing the latest cutting–edge findings set to revolutionize the consumer the amazing relationship between innocent play and complex technologies, and how the growing importance of our creative power as consumers is redefining the multi–trillion dollar consumer industry. By integrating the latest findings from the fields of complexity science, and customer service and management, and rendering them simply and logically, Pinault has created a system of 6 principles that can be successfully applied to any organization to unleash the power of play in all aspects of the consumer experience. Filled with entertaining stories, larger–than–life characters and eye–opening revelations, The Play Zone will guide readers through a boisterous crowd of important new ideas so that they can connect with consumers like never before.

And new derivative products have changed the behavior of many market segments and players. Yet, despite all these changes, the system's infrastructure is yet to be upgraded to reflect the realities of today's and tomorrow's world. El-Erian investigates the underlying drivers of global change to shed light on how you should: Think about the new opportunities and risks Construct an appropriately diversified and internationalized portfolio Protect your portfolio against new sources of systemic risk Best think about the impact of central banks and financial policies around the worldOffering up predictions of future developments, El-Erian directs his focus to help you capitalize on the new financial landscape, while limiting exposure to new risk configurations."When Markets Collide" is a unique collection of books for investors and policy makers around the world. In addition to providing a thorough analysis and clear perspective of recent events, it lays down a detailed map for navigating your way through an otherwise perplexing new economic landscape."SELECTED AS A 2008 BEST BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMISTWinner of the 2008 "Financial Times" and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award

The Asian crisis has sparked a thoroughgoing reappraisal of current international financial norms, the policy prescriptions of the International Monetary Fund, and the adequacy of the existing financial architecture. To draw proper policy conclusions from the crisis, it is necessary to understand exactly what happened and why from both a political and an economic perspective.In this study, renowned political scientist Stephan Haggard examines the political aspects of the crisis in the countries most affected―Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Haggard focuses on the political economy of the crisis, emphasizing the longer-run problems of moral hazard and corruption, as well as the politics of crisis management and the political fallout that ensued. He looks at the degree to which each government has rewoven the social safety net and discusses corporate and financial restructuring and greater transparency in business-government relations. Professor Haggard provides a counterpoint to the analysis by examining why Singapore, Taiwan, and the Philippines escaped financial calamity.The volume... provides an excellent overview of both the theories and facts of the crisis. Strongly recommended for academic collections, lower-division undergraduate through research.

Randall Stross looks at how Silicon Valley creates wealth through the eyes of leading venture capitalist firm Benchmark Capital. In offices along six blocks of Sand Hill Road in Melo Park, California, these venture capitalists will provide most of the $50 billion likely to be invested this year alone in the new technologies of the information age. This fly-on-the-wall book follows Benchmark's five partners in their pursuit of a finite number of sensible business ideas. It is an environment in which relatively few successes must pay for many failures. Against such a background, there are compelling stories of instant decision, multi-million dollar deals, and high risk-taking. As Silicon Valley drives fundamental changes in today's global technology, Randall Stross gives us an intriguing glimpse of the money men behind the constant innovations of the digital era.

The intriguing part of success is that it means such different things to different people. However, just as success encompasses achievement, SuccessOnomics implies the achieving of goals through fiscal competence. The concept of Success combined with Economics is a formidable financial combination. The Celebrity Experts(r) in this book are successful in different areas, but they all exhibit the components of success: perseverance, passion, planning, risktaking with a willingness to fail, decision-making and, maybe the most important component of all, they take action. The authors in this book share their success methodology and mindset. This allows the reader to understand not merely how they think, but, more importantly, how these CelebrityExperts(r) can guide and coach them to a mastery of SuccessOnomics in their own lives. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. Thomas A. Ed
