    • David M. Smick 著 /2009-08-01/
    • The 2007–08 subprime financial crisis is the jumping-off point for Smick's (Johnson Smick International) examination of current threats to global prosperity. He explains that although the subprime losses are small in the context of world financial markets, a lack of transparency has diminished investor confidence, dried up financial liquidity, and threatened the very foundations of our world financial system. He says that the growth of global financial markets has made it more difficult for central banks like the U.S. Federal Reserve to intercede effectively in times of crisis. Smick compares the subprime crisis to past events like the UK's forced devaluation of the pound in 1992 and Japan's economic stagnation in the 1990s. He warns of pending dangers like an overheating of the Chinese development juggernaut and the present calls for protectionism by U.S. politicians. He favors a global financial system built on transparency and trust. Smick's role for some 30 years as an economic adviser to central banker

    • It was the most influential marriage of the nineteenthcentury–and one of history’s most enduring love stories.Traditional biographies tell us that Queen Victoria inherited thethrone as a na?ve teenager, when the British Empire was at theheight of its power, and seemed doomed to find failure as a monarchand misery as a woman until she married her German cousin Albertand accepted him as her lord and master. Now renowned chroniclerGillian Gill turns this familiar story on its head, revealing astrong, feisty queen and a brilliant, fragile prince workingtogether to build a family based on support, trust, and fidelity,qualities neither had seen much of as children. The love affairthat emerges is far more captivating, complex, and relevant thanthat depicted in any previous account. The epic relationship began poorly. The cousins first met asteenagers for a few brief, awkward, chaperoned weeks in 1836. Atseventeen, charming rather than beautiful, Victoria already “showedsigns of wanting her own way

But the most compelling of hiseye-opening revisionist stories are among the best-founded: thestories of early American-European contact. To many of those whowere there, the earliest encounters felt more like a meeting ofequals than one of natural domination. And those who came later andfound an emptied landscape that seemed ripe for the taking, Mannargues convincingly, encountered not the natural and unchangingstate of the native American, but the evidence of a suddencalamity: the ravages of what was likely the greatest epidemic inhuman history, the smallpox and other diseases introducedinadvertently by Europeans to a population without immunity, whichswept through the Americas faster than the explorers who broughtit, and left behind for their discovery a land that held only ashadow of the
