For more than three decades, Jeffrey D. Sachs has been at the forefront of international economic problem solving. But Sachs turns his attention back home in The Price of Civilization, a book that is essential reading for every American. In a forceful, impassioned, and personal voice, he offers not only a searing and incisive diagnosis of our country’s economic ills but also an urgent call for Americans to restore the virtues of fairness, honesty, and foresight as the foundations of national prosperity.
As he has done in dozens of countries around the world in the midst of economic crises, Sachs turns his unique diagnostic skills to what ails the American economy. He finds that both political parties—and many leading economists—have missed the big picture, offering shortsighted solutions such as stimulus spending or tax cuts to address complex economic problems that require deeper solutions. Sachs argues that we have profoundly underestimated globalization’s long-term effects on our country, which create deep and largely unmet challenges with regard to jobs, incomes, poverty, and the environment. America’s single biggest economic failure, Sachs argues, is its inability to come to grips with the new global economic realities.
Yet Sachs goes deeper than an economic diagnosis. By taking a broad, holistic approach—looking at domestic politics, geopolitics, social psychology, and the natural environment as well—Sachs reveals the larger fissures underlying our country’s current crisis. He shows how Washington has consistently failed to address America’s economic needs. He describes a political system that has lost its ethical moorings, in which ever-rising campaign contributions and lobbying outlays overpower the voice of the citizenry. He also looks at the crisis in our culture, in which an overstimulated and consumption-driven populace in a ferocious quest for wealth now suffers shortfalls of social trust, honesty, and compassion.
Finally, Sachs offers a plan to turn the crisis around. He argues persuasively that the problem is not America’s abiding values, which remain generous and pragmatic, but the ease with which political spin and consumerism run circles around those values. He bids the reader to reclaim the virtues of good citizenship and mindfulness toward the economy and one another. Most important, he bids each of us to accept the price of civilization, so that together we can restore America to its great promise.

Berkshire Hathaway Letters to Shareholders - Warre n Buffett (mobi, epub).zip

Warren E. Buffett first took control of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., a small textile company, in April of 1965. A share changed hands for around $18 at the time. Forty-eight letters to shareholders later, the same share traded for $134,060, compounding investor capital at just under 21% per year -- a multiplier of 7,448 times.

This book compiles the full, un-edited versions of every one of Warren Buffett's letters to the shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway. In addition to providing an astounding case study on Berkshire's success, Buffett shows an incredible willingness to share his methods and act as a teacher to his many students.

There are hundreds of books about Buffett's life, advice, and methods. These are his actual letters -- word for word -- a "lesson plan" of his views on business and investing. You can find most of the letters for free on Berkshire's website, but this compiles them into a well-designed, easily readable format.

Analiza techniczna rynków finansowych - John J. Mu rphy.pdf

O bardzo niewielu opracowaniach można powiedzieć, że są zdecydowanie najlepsze w swojej dziedzinie, a właśnie tak jest od lat w przypadku "Analizy technicznej rynków finansowych" Johna J. Murphyego. Ta klasyczna pozycja, zwana biblią analizy technicznej, ukazuje się tym razem w nowej, znacznie rozszerzonej postaci. Autor dokonał zmian i uaktualnień w każdym rozdziale (blisko 300 nowych wykresów), dodając także trzy całkowicie nowe. Dotyczą one nie omawianych wcześniej wskaźników, które opracowano w ostatnich latach, wykresów świecowych oraz powiązań miedzy poszczególnymi rynkami. Odrębnie omówione została także problematyka systemów transakcyjnych.

Całość, pierwotnie zorientowana głównie na rynki terminowe, zawiera obecnie odniesienia do różnych rynków finansowych, co nadaje temu dziełu charakter uniwersalny. Polski przekład nowego wydania amerykańskiego z 1999 roku uzupełniony został również o obszerny zbiór testów i problemów, który w Stanach Zjednoczonych sprzedawany jest jako odrębna książka. Obecne wydanie polskie opatrzone jest również słownikiem terminów i indeksami ułatwiającymi korzystanie z tego podręcznika. Dzięki tym zmianom bestseller Murphyego tak w świecie anglojęzycznym, jak i w Polsce zachowa zapewne swą dotychczasową rangę także w nowym milenium.

"Gdyby można było przeczytać tylko jedną książkę o analizie technicznej, to powinna być ta."
Knight Ridder Financial Products and News

"Jest bardzo wiele książek, ale absolutnie najlepszą, która nie ma żadnej konkurencji, jest "Analiza techniczna" Johna Murphyego."
Gary Wagner, International Pacific Trading Company

"Nikt w tym pokoleniu nie wniósł więcej do analizy technicznej niż John Murphy... Jego książki powinni znać wszyscy ci, którzy interesują się giełdą. Ja się z nimi nie rozstaję."
Gail M. Dudack, Warburg Dillon Read

America's great depression - Murray N. Rothbard.mobi

Applied Austrian economics doesn't get better than this. Murray N. Rothbard's America's Great Depression is a staple of modern economic literature and crucial for understanding a pivotal event in American and world history.

The Mises Institute edition features a new introduction by historian Paul Johnson.

Since it first appeared in 1963, it has been the definitive treatment of the causes of the Depression. The book remains canonical today because the debate is still very alive.

Rothbard opens with a theoretical treatment of business-cycle theory, showing how an expansive monetary policy generates imbalances between investment and consumption. He proceeds to examine the Fed's policies of the 1920s, demonstrating that it was quite inflationary even if the effects did not show up in the price of goods and services. He showed that the stock-market correction was merely one symptom of the investment boom that led inevitably to a bust.

The Great Depression was not a crisis for capitalism but merely an example of the downturn part of the business cycle, which in turn was generated by government intervention in the economy. Had the book appeared in the 1940s, it might have spared the world much grief. Even so, its appearance in 1963 meant that free-market advocates had their first full-scale treatment of this crucial subject. The damage to the intellectual world inflicted by Keynesian- and socialist-style treatments would be limited from that day forward.

Austrian Perspective on the History of Economic Th ought - Murray N. Rothbard.mobi

The appearance of the famous (and massive) volumes of Rothbard's Austrian Perspective on the History of Economic Thought in a new edition is cause for great celebration. They have been out of print for many years, and were previously only available at a price exceeding $200 for the set. They are at last accessible again, in a single ebook edition, and at an affordable price.

These are indeed the books that Mises himself longed to see: "A real history of economic thought," he said in 1955, "would have to point out the development of the doctrines and not merely list every book."

When these volumes first appeared, they were celebrated in Barron's and by top scholars around the world. They succeeded in changing the way people think about economic doctrine: the beginnings (not Adam Smith, but the Spanish theologians), the dead ends (Marx), the great triumphs (Bastiat, for example), and the truly great minds (Turgot and many others he rescued from near obscurity).

Rothbard read deeply in thinkers dating back hundreds and thousands of years, and spotted every promising line of thought — and every unfortunate one. He knew when an idea would lead to prosperity, and when it would lead to calamity. He could spot a proto-Keynesian or proto-Marxist idea in the middle ages, just as he could find free-market lines of thought in ancient manuscripts.

The number of insights in these volumes are countless. Every page, every paragraph, bursts with intellectual energy and the author's fiery passion to tell the reader the remarkable story of economics. Many reviewers have remarked that Rothbard's accomplishment seems superhuman. He seems to have read everything. His originality is overwhelming. His passion for liberty and integrity in science is evident. His disdain toward those who sell out to the state is manifest as well.

This set is a monument to Rothbard's genius, a resource that will be valuable to intellectuals for generations, and a great read too!

Economics in One Lesson_The Shortest and Surest Wa y to Understand Basic Economics - Henry Hazlitt.mobi

A million copy seller, Henry Hazlitt’s Economics in One Lesson is a classic economic primer. But it is also much more, having become a fundamental influence on modern “libertarian” economics of the type espoused by Ron Paul and others.

Considered among the leading economic thinkers of the “Austrian School,” which includes Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich (F.A.) Hayek, and others, Henry Hazlitt (1894-1993), was a libertarian philosopher, an economist, and a journalist. He was the founding vice-president of the Foundation for Economic Education and an early editor of The Freeman magazine, an influential libertarian publication. Hazlitt wrote Economics in One Lesson, his seminal work, in 1946. Concise and instructive, it is also deceptively prescient and far-reaching in its efforts to dissemble economic fallacies that are so prevalent they have almost become a new orthodoxy.

Many current economic commentators across the political spectrum have credited Hazlitt with foreseeing the collapse of the global economy which occurred more than 50 years after the initial publication of Economics in One Lesson. Hazlitt’s focus on non-governmental solutions, strong — and strongly reasoned — anti-deficit position, and general emphasis on free markets, economic liberty of individuals, and the dangers of government intervention make Economics in One Lesson, every bit as relevant and valuable today as it has been since publication.
