In every mystical wisdom tradition, nonordinary states of consciousness have served as essential tools for discovering why we are here and how we can live richer, more meaningful lives. For over 40 years, Stanislav Grof has tested and brought these methods into the field of modern psychology. Are emotional states and behavioral patterns explained solely by brain chemistry and life experience - or could they be expressions of far vaster universal energies? Which specific mind states most powerfully accelerate integration and healing of the self? And how do you access these states? In The Transpersonal Vision, Grof answers these questions - and raises many others - in a stunning summation of his groundbreaking life's work. You will learn about transpersonal psychology's daring forays into the worlds of the shaman and the mystic; how your perinatal (birth and prebirth) experience profoundly affect you even today; what past-life, near-death, and out-of-body phenomena teach us about our life purpose; and much more.

Война и торговля сопровождали наших предков с древнейших времен. Между этими видами человеческой деятельности не было существенной разницы. Воин занимался торговлей, а купец часто бывал воином. На войне нет непроверенных и непродуманных методов. Каждый шаг, каждое действие четко расписано, так как слишком высоки ставки. Древние ученые писали целые трактаты на тему войны. Они учили, как с наименьшими потерями добиться победы на поле сражения. Война и бизнес очень похожи. В обеих этих областях есть победители и побежденные, есть победы и поражения, есть атаки и переговоры, натиск и убеждения.

When it was founded in 1993, Long-Term was hailed as the most impressive hedge fund in history. But after four years in which the firm dazzled Wall Street as a $100 billion moneymaking juggernaut, it suddenly suffered catastrophic losses that jeopardized not only the biggest banks on Wall Street but the stability of the financial system itself. The dramatic story of Long-Term's fall is now a chilling harbinger of the crisis that would strike all of Wall Street, from Lehman Brothers to AIG, a decade later.

The corporate world is filled with executives, men and women who have worked hard for years to reach the upper levels of management. They're intelligent, skilled, and even charismatic.

Nepolapitelný, šarmantní a poněkud uličnický Arsène Lupin se setkává s legendárním logikem Sherlockem Holmesem. Střet a souboj dvou osobností spustí řetězec napínavých událostí, v nichž se zablýskne vzácný modrý diamant, ale nebude chybět ani pořádná dávka mužské cti, dámského půvabu, intrik a překvapivých a nápaditých zvratů. Lakonický a noblesní humor, který je pro postavu Arsèna Lupina příznačný, ještě vynikne v kontrastu s metodickým Holmesem a jeho železnou logikou a téměř zázračnou předvídavostí. Souboj dvou nejdůmyslnějších a nejkreativnějších mužů, kteří ačkoli každý na jiné straně zákona, zkříží samozřejmě zbraně podle pravidel dvorské etikety, může začít.
