A Prince of Swindlers【電子書籍】[ Guy Boothby ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Set against the vivid backdrop of Edwardian London and the sultry allure of the Far East, Guy Boothby's "A Prince of Swindlers" is a masterful exploration of deception, identity, and moral ambiguity. The narrative follows the enigmatic figure of the conman, the charmingly self-styled Prince of Swindlers, who captivates with his wit and daring escapades. Boothby's prose seamlessly blends adventure, humor, and psychological insight, reflecting the literary zeitgeist of the late 19th century, where themes of class and societal norms were increasingly scrutinized. Through sharp dialogue and richly constructed settings, the novel offers a satirical lens on both the gullibility of society and the art of the con, elevating the criminal to a position of complex admiration. Guy Boothby, an Australian author with a flair for captivating storytelling, drew from his own experiences in England and the exotic locales of his travels. He was influenced by the burgeoning interests of the time in sensationalism and the criminal underworld, often incorporating elements of his life as a traveler and a keen observer of human nature into his work. His diverse career in publishing and journalism ensured that his writing was imbued with psychological depth, offering readers not just a tale of deceit but a commentary on societal values. I highly recommend "A Prince of Swindlers" to readers who enjoy sharp humor intertwined with rich character study. This novel is not only a thrilling adventure but also a keen exploration of the complexities of morality in a changing world. Boothby's work invites us to question our perceptions of right and wrong, making it a compelling read for fans of classic literature and modern psychological exploration alike.</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。 150円

Bunco Artists in Richmond, 1870-1920 Sharpers, Snatchers, Swindlers, Flimflammers and Other Con Men【電子書籍】[ Harry M. Ward ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Richmond in the late 19th and early 20th centuries was home to a lively underworld of tricksters, swindlers, confidence men and thieves. The former Confederate capital's under-staffed police force and dense population--large numbers of immigrants and the very poor--accommodated the enterprising criminal.</p> <p>Newspaper reports of the day offer a glimpse of a wide variety of crimes and misdemeanors, often with a bit of humor or pathos. Based on reports from the proceedings of the Police Court, this book provides a portrait of Richmond--then the most congested city in the U.S.--during the "Golden Age of the Con," when gamblers, hustlers and frauds plied their trades across the country.</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。 2,652円

Old West Swindlers【電子書籍】[ Laurence J. Yadon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>True stories of nineteenth-century crooks, con artists, and quacksーincluding the man who "sold" the Brooklyn Bridge.</strong><br /> Gunslingers and outlaws weren't the only ones who made the West wild. The nineteenth century was the golden era of riverboat gamblers, crooked railroad contractors, and filthy-rich medical quacks. These crooks made a living deceiving people who took a stranger at face value and left their doors unlocked. Throw in some get-rich-quick schemes and a generous mixture of whiskey and there was never a shortage of suckers.<br /> Conman George Parker was able to stay in business for forty years by "selling" public structures such as Madison Square Garden and the Statue of Liberty. He even "sold" the Brooklyn Bridge as often as twice a week. For most, the Salted Gold Mine or the Magic Wallet cons were enough to satisfy their greed. However, the more ambitious grifters tried the Big Store, an illegal underground betting parlor like the one seen in the movie <em>The Sting.</em> With an honest-looking face and a lack of morals, these scammers played a big role in giving the frontier its lawless reputationーand this book tells their stories.</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。 1,760円

Swindlers & Killers An Anthology of True Crime【電子書籍】[ Ana Benson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A collection of True Crime stories featuring women who swindle and kill...Poison is one of the most effective female weapons in the history. Whenever they needed to get rid of someone, the poisoners would choose a deadly chemical that would eventually deliver the results. The reasons for this move varies. Women often kill for a financial gain, when they are jealous or want to escape an abusive marriage. Yiya Murano, who would later be known as the poisoner of Monserrat, did the same. Her poison of choice was cyanide. Yiya killed because she was in huge debt and thought that scamming people for money was the only way she could get out of it. When her victims asked to get their investments back, Yiya would poison them by adding cyanide to her dessert cakes.</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。 950円

The Longest Con How Grifters, Swindlers, and Frauds Hijacked American Conservatism【電子書籍】[ Joe Conason ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A sardonic chronicle of how conservatism turned into a racketeering enterprise ? and why Donald Trump became the living emblem of the American right’s moral decay.</strong></p> <p><em>The Longest Con</em> tells the fascinating story of the partisan con artists who have corrupted conservative politics in our time, creating a toxic phenomenon that culminated in the election of Donald Trump, a bumptious fraud whose checkered career and tawdry retinue, including his presidential cabinet, have featured almost every variety of scam. But long before he appeared, Trump’s path to power was blazed by the motley horde of swindlers and quacks who preceded him.</p> <p>From the “professional anti-communists” (whose tactics even J. Edgar Hoover despised) to the “populist” grifters of the Tea Party movement and the religious charlatans of the “prosperity gospel” (who provided a pious front for Trump), the right-wing ripoff has remained remarkably consistent, even as personalities change and new technologies emerge: Stir up anger and resentment, demonize political opponents, promise vengeance, and collect donations from the gullible. It’s a highly lucrative game that any unscrupulous charlatan can play, as many have ? and they are named in these pages.</p> <p>In an unsparing and often comic narrative, Joe Conason explores the right’s long, steep descent into a movement whose principal aim is not to protect freedom or defend the Constitution, but merely to line the pockets of pretenders and blowhards whose malevolent tactics now endanger the nation.</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。 1,858円

Scientists and Swindlers Consulting on Coal and Oil in America, 1820?1890【電子書籍】[ Paul Lucier ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An "insightful" account of the early fossil fuel industry, the rise of the professional consultant, and the nexus between science and money ( <em>Technology and Culture</em>).</strong><br /> In this impressively researched, highly original work, Paul Lucier explains how science became an integral part of American technology and industry in the nineteenth century. <em>Scientists and Swindlers</em> introduces us to a new service of professionals: the consulting scientists. Lucier follows these entrepreneurial men of science on their wide-ranging commercial engagements from the shores of Nova Scotia to the coast of California and shows how their innovative work fueled the rapid growth of the American coal and oil industries and the rise of American geology and chemistry.<br /> Along the way, he explores the decisive battles over expertise and authority, the high-stakes court cases over patenting research, the intriguing and often humorous exploits of swindlers, and the profound ethical challenges of doing science for money. Starting with the small surveying businesses of the 1830s and reaching to the origins of applied science in the 1880s, Lucier recounts the complex and curious relations that evolved as geologists, chemists, capitalists, and politicians worked to establish scientific research as a legitimate, regularly compensated, and respected enterprise. This sweeping narrative enriches our understanding of how the rocks beneath our feet became invaluable resources for science, technology, and industry.</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。 1,760円

Swans, Swine, and Swindlers Coping with the Growing Threat of Mega-Crises and Mega-Messes【電子書籍】[ Ian Mitroff ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Swans, Swine, and Swindlers</em> addresses a core, contemporary question: What steps can we take to better anticipate and manage mega-crises, such as Haiti, Katrina, and 9/11?</p> <p>This book explores the concept of "messes." A mess is a web of complex and dynamically interacting, ill-defined, and/or wicked problems; their solutions; and our conscious and unconscious assumptions, beliefs, emotions, and values. The roots of messes can be classified as <em>Swans</em> (the inability to surface and test false assumptions and mistaken beliefs), <em>Swine</em> (the inability to confront and manage greed, hubris, arrogance, and narcissism), and <em>Swindlers</em> (the inability to confront, detect, and stop unethical and corrupt behavior). Working systematically with this concept and these classifications, authors Can M. Alpaslan and Ian I. Mitroff reveal that all crises are messes; one must learn to understand and manage them as such.</p> <p>They then provide tools and frameworks that readers can use to more effectively deal with the crises of today and tomorrow. Drawing on ideas from research areas as diverse as human development, philosophy, rhetoric, psychology, and high reliability organizations, this book aims to be the definitive guide for a new era in crisis management. Therefore, it is a must-have for practitioners, scholars, and students who study and deal in real-life crises.</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。 7,960円

Forging Capitalism Rogues, Swindlers, Frauds, and the Rise of Modern Finance【電子書籍】[ Ian Klaus ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<DIV>Vice is endemic to Western capitalism, according to this fascinating, wildly entertaining, often startling history of modern finance. Ian Klaus’s <I>Forging Capitalism</I> demonstrates how international financial affairs in the nineteenth century were conducted not only by gentlemen as a noble pursuit but also by connivers, thieves, swindlers, and frauds who believed that no risk was too great and no scheme too outrageous if the monetary reward was substantial enough. Taken together, the grand deceptions of the ambitious schemers and the determined efforts to guard against them have been instrumental in creating the financial establishments of today.<BR><BR> In a story teeming with playboys and scoundrels and rich in colorful and amazing events, Klaus chronicles the evolution of trust through three distinct epochs: the age of values, the age of networks and reputations, and, ultimately, in a world of increased technology and wealth, the age of skepticism and verification. In today’s world, where the questionable dealings of large international financial institutions are continually in the spotlight, this extraordinary history has great relevance, offering essential lessons in both the importance and the limitations of trust.</DIV>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。 3,980円

Avoiding Swindlers【電子書籍】[ Al Rosen ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The book deals with actual situations that resulted in investors losing multi-millions of dollars to financial tricksters. Emphasis is placed upon learning how to detect early warning signs. Financial exposure can be minimized prior to situations deteriorating into bankruptcies. However, individual investors have to take specific actions after doing some homework. Otherwise, the alternative is to lose money by listening to "hot tips," often involving publicly traded securities.</p> <p>Some types of commonly seen but inappropriate financial reporting are permitted in certain countries (including parts of North America), even though they deeply aid the financial tricksters. Governments are seriously neglecting investors by not prohibiting certain reporting trickery. Overall, in some regions, investor protection is simply archaic (including allowing false advertising). Currently, investors face serious risks.</p> <p>The book attempts to minimize technical language. Stress is placed upon encouraging investors to look for specific warning signs before opening their purses and wallets to the growing group of tricksters.</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。 1,179円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A Prince of Swindlers is the story of one intelligent, fearless, and clever scoundrel who keeps an entire city in terror. He is an ingenious thief and a master of disguise who has conned all of London. The thief executes a series of plans that involve him stealing a diamond necklace, arranging the theft of a horse, stealing some wedding gifts, misleading the profits of a charity campaign, and swimming off with a visiting royal's most refined gold plate. He uses several schemes to fool the English upper class and comes away with millions. It's a story of how an unexpected encounter between a conman and a British diplomat led to a series of adventures. It's interesting and fun to read how he plans out his complex plans and always manages to execute them. The gentleman thief is a fascinating character who often recaps his plans to the reader in dialogue. This gave him a humorous villain quality that adds to the story's charm. Much of the humor depicts his personality wonderfully. It's a mind-blowing story that will meet any reader's need for thrills.</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。 150円

Swans, Swine, and Swindlers Coping with the Growing Threat of Mega-Crises and Mega-Messes【電子書籍】[ Ian Mitroff ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Swans, Swine, and Swindlers</em> addresses a core, contemporary question: What steps can we take to better anticipate and manage mega-crises, such as Haiti, Katrina, and 9/11?</p> <p>This book explores the concept of "messes." A mess is a web of complex and dynamically interacting, ill-defined, and/or wicked problems; their solutions; and our conscious and unconscious assumptions, beliefs, emotions, and values. The roots of messes can be classified as <em>Swans</em> (the inability to surface and test false assumptions and mistaken beliefs), <em>Swine</em> (the inability to confront and manage greed, hubris, arrogance, and narcissism), and <em>Swindlers</em> (the inability to confront, detect, and stop unethical and corrupt behavior). Working systematically with this concept and these classifications, authors Can M. Alpaslan and Ian I. Mitroff reveal that all crises are messes; one must learn to understand and manage them as such.</p> <p>They then provide tools and frameworks that readers can use to more effectively deal with the crises of today and tomorrow. Drawing on ideas from research areas as diverse as human development, philosophy, rhetoric, psychology, and high reliability organizations, this book aims to be the definitive guide for a new era in crisis management. Therefore, it is a must-have for practitioners, scholars, and students who study and deal in real-life crises.</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。 8,457円
