The Quants How a New Breed of Math Whizzes Conquered Wall Street and Nearly Destroyed It【電子書籍】[ Scott Patterson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>With the immediacy of today’s NASDAQ close and the timeless power of a Greek tragedy, <em>The Quants</em> is at once a masterpiece of explanatory journalism, a gripping tale of ambition and hubris, and an ominous warning about Wall Street’s future.</strong></p> <p>In March of 2006, four of the world’s richest men sipped champagne in an opulent New York hotel. They were preparing to compete in a poker tournament with million-dollar stakes, but those numbers meant nothing to them. They were accustomed to risking <em>billions.</em></p> <p>On that night, these four men and their cohorts were the new kings of Wall Street. Muller, Griffin, Asness, and Weinstein were among the best and brightest of a new breed, the <em>quants</em>. Over the prior twenty years, this species of math whiz--technocrats who make billions not with gut calls or fundamental analysis but with formulas and high-speed computers--had usurped the testosterone-fueled, kill-or-be-killed risk-takers who’d long been the alpha males the world’s largest casino. The quants helped create a digitized money-trading machine that could shift billions around the globe with the click of a mouse. Few realized, though, that in creating this unprecedented machine, men like Muller, Griffin, Asness and Weinstein had sowed the seeds for history’s greatest financial disaster.</p> <p>Drawing on unprecedented access to these four number-crunching titans, <em>The Quants</em> tells the inside story of what they thought and felt in the days and weeks when they helplessly watched much of their net worth vaporize--and wondered just how their mind-bending formulas and genius-level IQ’s had led them so wrong, so fast.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,679円

The Almost Nearly Perfect People Behind the Myth of the Scandinavian Utopia【電子書籍】[ Michael Booth ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**<em>The Christian Science Monitor'<em>s #1 Best Book of the Year</em></em></p> <p><strong>A witty, informative, and popular travelogue about the Scandinavian countries and how they may not be as happy or as perfect as we assume, “<em>The Almost Nearly Perfect People</em> offers up the ideal mixture of intriguing and revealing facts” (Laura Miller, <em>Salon</em>).</strong></p> <p>Journalist Michael Booth has lived among the Scandinavians for more than ten years, and he has grown increasingly frustrated with the rose-tinted view of this part of the world offered up by the Western media. In this timely book he leaves his adopted home of Denmark and embarks on a journey through all five of the Nordic countries to discover who these curious tribes are, the secrets of their success, and, most intriguing of all, what they think of one another.</p> <p>Why are the Danes so happy, despite having the highest taxes? Do the Finns really have the best education system? Are the Icelanders as feral as they sometimes appear? How are the Norwegians spending their fantastic oil wealth? And why do all of them hate the Swedes? In <em>The Almost Nearly Perfect People</em> Michael Booth explains who the Scandinavians are, how they differ and why, and what their quirks and foibles are, and he explores why these societies have become so successful and models for the world. Along the way a more nuanced, often darker picture emerges of a region plagued by taboos, characterized by suffocating parochialism, and populated by extremists of various shades. They may very well be almost nearly perfect, but it isn’t easy being Scandinavian.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,824円

Counsel and Command in Early Modern English Thought【電子書籍】[ Joanne Paul ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>While it has often been recognised that counsel formed an essential part of the political discourse in early modern England, the precise role that it occupied in the development of political thinking has remained obscure. This comprehensive and rigorous study of early modern English political counsel establishes the importance of the relationship between political counsel and the discourse of sovereignty. Tracing the changes and evolution of writings on political counsel during the 'monarchy of counsel', from the end of the Wars of the Roses to the end of the English Civil War, Joanne Paul examines English thought in its domestic and transnational context, providing an original account of the relationship between counsel and emerging conceptions of sovereignty. Formed at the conjunction of the history of political thought and English political history, this book grounds textual analysis within the context of court politics, intellectual and patronage networks, and diplomacy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,168円

Pictures and Visuality in Early Modern China【電子書籍】[ Craig Clunas ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Pictures and Visuality in Early Modern China</em> is not simply a survey of sixteenth-century images, but rather, a thorough and thoughtful examination of visual culture in China's Ming Dynasty, one that considers images wherever they appearedーnot only paintings, but also illustrated books, maps, ceramic bowls, lacquered boxes, painted fans, and even clothing and tomb pictures.</p> <p>Clunas's theory of visuality incorporates not only the image and the object upon which it is placed but also the culture which produced and purchased it. Economic changes in sixteenth-century Chinaーthe rapid expansion of trade routes and a growing class of consumersーare thus intricately bound up with the evolution of the image itself. <em>Pictures and Visuality in Early Modern China</em> will be a touchstone for students of Chinese history, art, and culture.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,211円

Damaged Musicality and Race in Early American Punk【電子書籍】[ Evan Rapport ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Damaged: Musicality and Race in Early American Punk</em> is the first book-length portrait of punk as a musical style with an emphasis on how punk developed in relation to changing ideas of race in American society from the late 1960s to the early 1980s. Drawing on musical analysis, archival research, and new interviews, <em>Damaged</em> provides fresh interpretations of race and American society during this period and illuminates the contemporary importance of that era.</p> <p>Evan Rapport outlines the ways in which punk developed out of dramatic changes to America’s cities and suburbs in the postwar era, especially with respect to race. The musical styles that led to punk included transformations to blues resources, experimental visions of the American musical past, and bold reworkings of the rock-and-roll and rhythm-and-blues sounds of the late 1950s and early 1960s, revealing a historically oriented approach to rock that is strikingly different from the common myths and conceptions about punk. Following these approaches, punk itself reflected new versions of older exchanges between the US and the UK, the changing environments of American suburbs and cities, and a shift from the expressions of older baby boomers to that of younger musicians belonging to Generation X. Throughout the book, Rapport also explores the discourses and contradictory narratives of punk history, which are often in direct conflict with the world that is captured in historical documents and revealed through musical analysis.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,907円

The Arts of EncounterThe Arts of Encounter Christians, Muslims, and the Power of Images in Early Modern Spain【電子書籍】[ Catherine Infante ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Images of crosses, the Virgin Mary, and Christ, among other devotional objects, pervaded nearly every aspect of public and private life in early modern Spain, but they were also a point of contention between Christian and Muslim cultures. Writers of narrative fiction, theatre, and poetry were attuned to these debates, and religious imagery played an important role in how early modern writers chose to portray relations between Christians and Muslims.</p> <p>Drawing on a wide variety of literary genres as well as other textual and visual sources ? including historical chronicles, travel memoirs, captives’ testimonies, and paintings ? Catherine Infante traces the references to religious visual culture and the responses they incited in cross-confessional negotiations. She reveals some of the anxieties about what it meant to belong to different ethnic or religious communities and how these communities interacted with each other within the fluid boundaries of the Mediterranean world. Focusing on the religious image as a point of contact between individuals of diverse beliefs and practices, <em>The Arts of Encounter</em> presents an original and necessary perspective on how Christian-Muslim relations were perceived and conveyed in print.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,118円

The Social Life of Inkstones Artisans and Scholars in Early Qing China【電子書籍】[ Dorothy Ko ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>An inkstone, a piece of polished stone no bigger than an outstretched hand, is an instrument for grinding ink, an object of art, a token of exchange between friends or sovereign states, and a surface on which texts and images are carved. As such, the inkstone has been entangled with elite masculinity and the values of <em>wen</em> (culture, literature, civility) in China, Korea, and Japan for more than a millennium. However, for such a ubiquitous object in East Asia, it is virtually unknown in the Western world.</p> <p>Examining imperial workshops in the Forbidden City, the Duan quarries in Guangdong, the commercial workshops in Suzhou, and collectors’ homes in Fujian, <em>The Social Life of Inkstones</em> traces inkstones between court and society and shows how collaboration between craftsmen and scholars created a new social order in which the traditional hierarchy of “head over hand” no longer predominated. Dorothy Ko also highlights the craftswoman Gu Erniang, through whose work the artistry of inkstone-making achieved unprecedented refinement between the 1680s and 1730s</p> <p><em>The Social Life of Inkstones</em> explores the hidden history and cultural significance of the inkstone and puts the stonecutters and artisans on center stage.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,844円

Epistle of Barnabas Unveiling Spiritual Truths: A Journey Through Symbolism and Allegory in Early Christian Writing【電子書籍】[ Anonymous ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The "Epistle of Barnabas" stands as a profound early Christian text that intricately weaves doctrinal teachings with a distinctive epistolary style. Written in the late first or early second century, it explores themes of faith, eschatology, and the interpretation of the Jewish laws from a Christian perspective. The author employs a rigorous allegorical method, often drawing from the Hebrew Scriptures to elucidate the nascent Christian faith, thus situating the text within the complex theological context of early Christianity's formative years. Its rich rhetorical strategies and ethical exhortations reflect both a response to the challenges of its time and a deep engagement with contemporary socio-religious dynamics, making it a critical study for understanding the intersection of Judaism and early Christianity. The authorship of the "Epistle of Barnabas" remains ambiguous, yet this anonymity speaks to its universal appeal among early Christian communities grappling with identity and doctrine. Likely originating from an Alexandrian milieu, the text illustrates the author's intention to consolidate Christian beliefs amidst a predominantly Jewish framework, arguably influenced by the community's struggle to define itself in the wake of the Apostolic era. Readers searching for insight into the early Christian theological landscape will find the "Epistle of Barnabas" invaluable. Its depth of thought and rich allegorical elements are essential for scholars of early Christianity, while its themes remain strikingly relevant for modern discussions of faith and interpretation. Engage with this seminal work to enrich your understanding of the complex tapestry that is early Christian thought.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>"A fascinating history of…[a craft] that preceded and made possible civilization itself." ー<em>New York Times Book Review</em></strong></p> <p>New discoveries about the textile arts reveal women's unexpectedly influential role in ancient societies.</p> <p>Twenty thousand years ago, women were making and wearing the first clothing created from spun fibers. In fact, right up to the Industrial Revolution the fiber arts were an enormous economic force, belonging primarily to women.</p> <p>Despite the great toil required in making cloth and clothing, most books on ancient history and economics have no information on them. Much of this gap results from the extreme perishability of what women produced, but it seems clear that until now descriptions of prehistoric and early historic cultures have omitted virtually half the picture.</p> <p>Elizabeth Wayland Barber has drawn from data gathered by the most sophisticated new archaeological methodsーmethods she herself helped to fashion. In a "brilliantly original book" (Katha Pollitt, <em>Washington Post Book World</em>), she argues that women were a powerful economic force in the ancient world, with their own industry: fabric.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,468円

Achilles beside Gilgamesh Mortality and Wisdom in Early Epic Poetry【電子書籍】[ Michael Clarke ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>It is widely recognised that the epics of Homer are closely related to the earlier mythology and literature of the Ancient Near East, above all the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh. But how should this influence our response to the meaning and message of either poem? This book responds to this question through an experiment in intertextual reading. It begins by exploring Gilgamesh as a work of literature in its own right, and uses this interpretation as the springboard for a new reading of the Homeric epic, emphasising the movement within the poem - beginning from a world of heroic action and external violence, but shifting inwards to the thoughts and feelings of Achilles as he responds to the certainty that his own death will follow that of his best friend. The book will be of interest both to specialists and to those coming to ancient literature for the first time.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,904円
