Principles of Sustainable Finance【電子書籍】[ Dirk Schoenmaker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Finance is widely seen as an obstacle to a better world. Principles of Sustainable Finance explains how the financial sector can be mobilized to counter this. Using finance as a means to achieve social goals, we can divert the planet and its economy from its current path to a world that is sustainable for all. Written for undergraduate, graduate, and executive students of finance, economics, business, and sustainability, this textbook combines theory, empirical data, and policy to explain the sustainability challenges for corporate investment. It shows how finance can steer funding to certain companies and projects without sacrificing return and thus speed up the transition to a sustainable economy. It analyses the Sustainable Development Goals as a strategy for a better world and provides evidence that environmental, social, and governance factors matter, explaining in detail how to incorporate these factors in the corporate and financial sectors. Tailored for students, Principles of Sustainable Finance starts each chapter with an overview and learning objectives to support study. It includes suggestions for further reading, lists and definitions of key concepts, and extensive uses of figures, boxes, and tables to enhance educational goals and clarify concepts. Principles of Sustainable Finance is also supported by an online resource that includes teaching materials and cases.</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。 4,198円

The Legal History of the European Banking Union How European Law Led to the Supranational Integration of the Single Financial Market【電子書籍】[ Dr Pedro Gustavo Teixeira ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>How was the Banking Union, the most advanced legal and institutional integration in the single market, created? How does European law impact European integration?</p> <p>To answer these questions, this book provides a sweeping account of the evolution of European law. It identifies five integration periods of the single financial market, intertwined with the development of global finance, from its origins, through its expansion and crisis, to the Banking Union. Each period is defined by innovations to deepen integration, such as the single passport for financial services, soft governance and comitology, agencies, or a single rulebook.</p> <p>Providing a far-reaching explanation of the legal and institutional rationality of the European Banking Union, this book demonstrates that the Banking Union is not an accident of history or simply the product of the existential crisis of the Monetary Union. It has deep roots in the evolutionary process of European law and its drive towards supranational integration.</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。 5,408円

Just Bee You A guide to surviving the best bits of life and holding your middle finger up to the rest【電子書籍】[ Bindy Hall ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Warning: this book contains strong language (which may be unsuitable for children).</p> <p>There’s enough solidly inspirational and profoundly beautiful literature out there already for your reading pleasure, I won’t add to that. Instead I offer you this. I wrote it. I felt compelled to do so because I have a suspicion that, like me, we all worry about and over analyse the same things in life. We are all just anxious meatbags, trying to get along. We all want similar (ish) things. Happiness, family, love, safety, FAME and a metabolism that helpfully speeds up annually on the event of our passing birthdays.</p> <p>I found this quote a few years ago, it came up as I was scrolling on the internet. It’s so beautiful it actually hurts.</p> <p>“You’re a ghost driving a meat coated skeleton, made from stardust. What do you have to be scared of?”</p> <p>It’s deep isn’t it? It’s basically the theme of this book. It’s aim and my intention is to alleviate worries and reassure the reader that we are all the same inside. We ALL relate to the same s*** that keeps us awake at night.</p> <p>I’ll be honest… I swear like a trucker, but I sure can write and I have good intentions. And, as the front cover states- it’s a guide to surviving the best bits of life and holding our middle fingers up to the rest!</p> <p>?

Jesus' Terrible Financial Advice Flipping the Tables on Peace, Prosperity, and the Pursuit of Happiness【電子書籍】[ John Thornton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>“Jesus’ advice ruined what I planned to write.”</strong></p> <p>It was the recipe for a great book. John and his wifeーboth financial expertsーhad cut their income by 80% to pursue more meaningful lives. Within six years they had two kids, were debt-free, went on several vacations, and doubled their net worth. John was ready to share the biblical principles that made this possible.</p> <p>But he couldn’t. After reviewing Scripture’s teaching on moneyーover 1,300 versesーhe realized he had missed something big.</p> <p><em>Jesus’ Terrible Financial Advice</em> turns even conventional Christian wisdom on its head. While it answers many of the practical questions we haveーlike *does Jesus want me to be rich or poor? Should I give to everybody who asks? Is it wrong to save?ー*it goes beyond these concerns. It asks bigger questions, gives bolder answers, and offers a more comprehensive view of stewardship. Follow Jesus’ “terrible” (shocking, otherworldly) financial advice, and you’ll have what money can’t buy: purpose.</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。 1,067円

Sustainable Finance and Banking The Financial Sector and the Future of the Planet【電子書籍】[ Marcel Jeucken ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Banking and finance play a fundamental role in public policy and economic performance as well as in all forms of commerce and industry. They are crucial in determining whether society - from governments to individual consumers - succeeds in following an environmentally sustainable path.</p> <p>However, those working in the financial sector are largely unaware of the rationale and pressures for sustainable development and its bearing on their work, while those in the relevant research and policy areas commonly overlook how vital the financial sector is for progress.</p> <p>Marcel Jeucken sets out to rectify this state of affairs, in a style which is accessible to those with no experience of environmental finance issues. He provides a comprehensive account of their interdependence: why the financial sector is crucial to achieving sustainability and why the triple bottom line of commercial, environmental and social success points the way forward for banking. From a systematic assessment of major banks around the world, he presents a comprehensive account of current best practice, an analysis of the differences in approach and performance, and recommendations of actions and policies for improved performance that will contribute to sustainable development.</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。 8,278円

Fed Up The High Costs of Cheap Food【電子書籍】[ Dale Finley Slongwhite ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>One farmworker tells of the soil that would “bite” him, but that was the chemicals burning his skin. Others developed lupus, asthma, diabetes, kidney failure, or suffered myriad symptoms with no clear diagnosis. Some miscarried or had children with genetic defects, while others developed cancer.</p> <p>In Fed Up, Dale Slongwhite collects the nearly inconceivable and chilling oral histories of African American farmworkers whose lives, and the lives of their families, were forever altered by one of the most horrific pesticide exposure incidents in United States’ history.</p> <p>For decades, the farms around Lake Apopka, Florida’s third largest lake, were sprayed with chemicals ranging from the now-banned DDT to toxaphene. Among the most productive farmland in America, the fields were doused with organochlorine pesticides, also known as persistent organic pollutants; the once-clear waters of the lake turned pea green; birds, alligators, and fish died at alarming rates; and still the farmworkers planted, harvested, packed, and shipped produce all over the country, enduring scorching sun, snakes, rats, injuries, substandard housing, low wages, and the endocrine disruptors that crop dusters dropped as they toiled.</p> <p>Eventually, state and federal dollars were allocated to buy out and close farms to attempt land restoration, water clean up, and wildlife rehabilitation. But the farmworkers became statistics, nameless casualties history almost forgot. Here are their stories, told in their own words.</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。 1,242円

The Maverick Mountaineer The Remarkable Life of George Ingle Finch: Climber, Scientist, Inventor【電子書籍】[ Robert Wainwright ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>WINNER OF <em>THE TIMES</em> 2017 BIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR PRIZE</strong><br /> <strong>SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2016 BOARDMAN TASKER PRIZE FOR MOUNTAIN LITERATURE</strong><br /> <strong>'One of the two best Alpinists of his time - Mallory was the other.' <em>The Times</em></strong><br /> In the spring of 1901 a teenager stood on top of a hill, gazed out in wonderment at the Australian landscape and decided he wanted to be a mountaineer. Two decades later, the same man stood in a blizzard beneath the summit of Mount Everest, within sight of his goal to be the first to stand on the roof of the world. George Finch was at the highest point ever reached by a human being and only his decision to save the life of his stricken companion stopped him from reaching the summit.<br /> George Finch was a rebel of the first order, a man who dared to challenge the British establishment who disliked his independence, background, long hair and lack of an Oxbridge education. Despite this, he not only became one of the world's greatest alpinists, earning the grudging respect of his rival George Mallory, but pioneered the use of the artificial oxygen that enabled Everest to finally be conquered thirty years after his own attempt. A renowned scientist, a World War I hero and a Fellow of the Royal Society, involved in the development of some of the twentieth century's most important inventions, his skills helped save London from burning to the ground during the Blitz. Finch's public accomplishments, however, were shadowed by his complicated private life and his fraught relationship with his son, the actor Peter Finch.<br /> Acclaimed biographer Robert Wainwright restores George Finch to his rightful place in history with this remarkable tribute to one of the twentieth century's most eccentric anti-heroes.</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。 880円

Out from under the Table Finding God's Presence in the Midst of Loss【電子書籍】[ Linda Seabrook ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The longer we live, the more we realize that life isn’t about white picket fences and rose gardens. Life can hand us trials that change the course of our lives and leave us asking where God is in all of it. Or the daily struggles can just chip away at us, bit by bit, leaving us feeling depleted and empty.</p> <p>But what if we realized that God calls us to so much more than just despair when we face struggles? In some of the most uncertain and even frightening moments of our lives, our Father invites us to draw close to Him. While our humanness wants us to reject His promises and plans, God offers the sweetest of communion in the darkest of times. When everything and everyone seems to fail us, we can live in the reality that God promises to never leave us or forsake us.</p> <p><em>Out From Under the Table</em> is written for everyone who longs to walk victoriously through the trials of life and see brokenness from God’s point of view. The God who showed His abiding presence to those in the Old and New Testaments is the same God who walks alongside us today, even when the light at the end of the tunnel cannot be seen.</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。 960円

Summary of Ash Ambirge's The Middle Finger Project【電子書籍】[ Everest Media ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 It’s not easy to trust yourself and make bold choices that other people won’t agree with. It’s not easy to quit your job and be an artist, or open your own bookshop. The world throws some side-eye at us when we do these things. #2 We’ve all been taught that adults are these supremely wise, enlightened beings, but that’s not always the case. They are just as fallible as we are. #3 I had always imagined that there was a Committee of True and Actual Greatness, or at least a guy with a dog named Wedgie, that was bestowing us all with these guidelines. But as it turned out, no one was out there advocating for me. #4 I learned to become radically self-reliant, and I custom-made my own role instead of being forced to retrofit myself into someone else’s idea of what work should look like.</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。 500円

Robinson Crusoe's Money "The Remarkable Financial Fortunes and Misfortunes of a Remote Island Community"【電子書籍】[ David Ames Wells ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>An excellent example of his work in this field is his "ROBINSON CRUSOE'S MONEY", issued first in 1876 when resumption was in doubt, and again in 1896 when the 'free silver' advocacy was in full swing. Wells was among the earliest to appreciate the importance of what has since been known as 'technological unemployment,' the displacing of men by machines ..His writing and speaking was marked by simplicity, candor, and extraordinary facility in the popular adaptation of statistics. His aptness in illustration was as charming as it was effective ..."Importance of Money in De Foe's Robinson CrusoeBecasuse of Money plays an important role in De Foe's Robinson Crusoe even though the islander repeatedly celebrates his triumph over the whole attribution of value to money, a medium of no value to him, who is deprived of all human commerce. Crusoe keeps a continuous account of his wealth and he is finally overwhelmed when he has to realise how rich he became in the time of his isolation. His computations mention:§ English pounds sterling,§ Portuguese Moidors and Cruisadoes, i.e. gold moedas and silver cruzados,§ Spanish Doubloons and Pieces of Eight, i.e. gold dobl?ns and pesos, silver coins of eight reales,§ unspecified (gold) ducats§ unminted goldAll coins mentioned matched specific amounts of gold and silver and one knew how to calculate between these coins. Our marginal notes offer the equivalents in English money at the rates valid in 1719.The computations for 1719 are not a weak compromise. A gold Moidore minted in 1670 would not contain one gram less gold in 1719 its value as a gold coin would hence remain stable. The value of gold in silver money was, however, unstable.None of the European currencies could fix a price at which gold could be converted; and all currencies gave sums on national silver standards. The problem increased where a country failed to stabilise its silver money (by failing to issue new silver coins of the expected quality). The 1680s and 1690s thus saw the English public unwilling to continue changing their gold guineas into silver shillings at the established rate of 20 shillings the guinea. The guinea rose from 20 to 30 shillings in 1694, it was successfully fixed at 21s, 6d in 1698; the rate was modified to 21 shillings in a new attempt to stabilise the monetary system in 1717, and it was to remain at this ratio till 1816.</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。 790円

Sacred Dance of Venus and Mars【電子書籍】[ Michele Finey ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A beautiful book which for the first time explores the relationship between the cycles of Venus and Mars and their impact on our lives. Using many case histories the author shows how, although synastry is important, possibly of greater importance is the aspect between the two planets within their cycles because that can dictate the timing of key moments in a relationship. She shows how the degree of the original conjunction between the two planets ('the degree of passion'), based on the time of birth can indicate the kind of the people we are attracted to and the course a romance can follow. A really absorbing book which will prompt hours of research</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。 2,835円

Strategies For Sustainable Financing Of Secondary Education In Sub-Saharan Africa :【電子書籍】[ Lewin Keith M. ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
Investment in secondary schooling in Sub-Saharan Africa has been neglected since the World Conference on Education for All at Jomtien. The World Education Forum in Dakar began to recognize the growing importance of post-primary schooling for development. Only 25 percent of school-age children attend secondary school in the region and fewer complete successfully, having consequences for gender equity, poverty reduction, and economic growth. As universal primary schooling becomes a reality, demand for secondary schools is increasing rapidly. Gaps between the educational levels of the labor force in Sub-Saharan Africa and other regions remain large. Girls are more often excluded from secondary schools than boys. Secondary schooling costs are high to both governments and households. This book explores how access to secondary education can be increased. Radical reforms are needed in low-enrollment countries to make secondary schooling more affordable and to provide more access to the majority currently excluded. The report identifies the rationale for increasing access, reviews the status of secondary education in Sub-Saharan Africa, charts the growth needed in different countries to reach different levels of participation, identifies the financial constraints on growth, and discusses the reforms needed to make improved access affordable. The book concludes with a road map of ways forward that increase the probability that more of Africa's children will experience secondary schooling.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。 1,602円

Production of olefins via oxidative de-hydrogenation of C3-C4 fraction by CO2 over Cr-Mo/MCM-41【電子書籍】[ A. A. Ijagbuji ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Scientific Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Chemistry - Other, , language: English, abstract: The present study investigates the oxidative de-hydrogenation of propane-butane (C3-C4) fraction over mono (Cr, Mo) and bi-metal (Cr-Mo) loaded MCM-41catalysts. The catalysts were prepared by sequential impregnation method at 500oC calcination temperature. Experiments were performed by feeding C3-C4 fraction and CO2 into a continuous flow quartz reactor at atmospheric pressure (P = 1 atm.), reaction temperatures between 500 - 650oC, gas hourly space velocity within 100 - 400 h-1, and at reaction time (tr) = 2h. The physicochemical properties and performance of catalysts were evaluated by BET, XRD, H2-TPR, and NH3-TPD characterization techniques. The major products are ethylene, propylene, isobutylene, butylene. This paper reports that the total yield of olefins (? C2-C4) = 71.6 % was achieved at 89.5 % conversion level of C3-C4 at 630oC. The results indicate that the addition of Mo to Cr/MCM-41 modifies its catalytic activity. The Cr/MCM-41 and Mo/MCM-41 catalysts were prepared for comparison purposes.</p> <p>Ayodeji A.
