The Adventures of Jim-Bob
Jim-Bob is a lovable, adventurous teddy bear who travels all over the world. He decided to set off on an adventure one Saturday morning after he read a new book about different places in the world.

On his travels, Jim-Bob meets many interesting new friends who each teach him something new and exciting about this wonderful world we all share. In a tale based on the true story of the world’s best traveled teddy bear, Jim-Bob learns the essentials of friendship and acceptance from Gus, Sam, Paul, Amara, Baldo, Ping, and Kody.

Jim-Bob’s adventures encourage travel, exploration, and appreciation of diversity.
The Global Turn
The ability to deploy interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives that speak to interconnected global dimensions is critical if one’s work is to be relevant and applicable to the emerging global-scale issues of our time. The Global Turn is a guide for students and scholars across all areas of the social sciences and humanities who wish to embark on global-studies research projects. The authors demonstrate how the global can be studied from a local perspective and vice versa. They show how global processes manifest at multiple levels—transnational, regional, national, and local—all of which are interconnected and mutually constitutive. This book takes readers through the steps of thinking like a global scholar in theoretical, methodological, and practical terms, and it explains the implications of global perspectives for research design.

Die Bewertung nicht börsennotierter Unternehmen
Innerhalb der Betriebswirtschaftslehre stellt die Unternehmensbewertung eine durch erhebliche Methodenvielfalt gekennzeichnete Disziplin dar. Das Abstellen auf den Zukunftserfolgswert eines Unternehmens ist in der Wissenschaft unumstritten. Neben der Schätzung zukünftiger Zahlungsmittelüberschüsse des Unternehmens (Cash Flows) ist für die Anwendung dieser Methode die Bestimmung des periodenspezifischen risikoangepassten Kapitalisierungszinssatzes notwendig. Das Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) bildet dabei noch immer ein zentrales Kapitalmarktmodell für die Ableitung erwarteter Eigenkapitalrenditen.
