Finanzielle Entscheidungen sind vielschichtig und komplex. Dabei spielen neben rationalen Überlegungen (klassische ökonomische Modelle) und psychologischen Aspekten (Behavioral Finance) jedoch auch zahlreiche neuronale Einflussfaktoren eine wichtige Rolle. Mit diesen beschäftigt sich die sog. Neurofinance, die neuroökonomische Methoden speziell auf Fragestellungen finanzieller Entscheidungen anwendet und die im Zentrum dieses Buches steht. Dessen übergeordnetes Ziel ist die Gestaltung eines ganzheitlichen, anwendungsorientierten, neuronal modifizierten Decision Frameworks zur Verbesserung der Entscheidungsfindung im Investmentprozess von Privatanlegern mithilfe der Methodik des hierfür neuentwickelten Neurofinancial Engineerings. Letzteres wird dabei als systematisches Konstruieren eines normativen, neuroökonomisch modifizierten Entscheidungsrahmens im Kontext finanzieller Entscheidungen verstanden. Dazu werden für alle wichtigen Schritte und Aktivitäten im Investmentprozess verschiedene relevante neuronale Effekte und deren mögliche negative Auswirkungen beschrieben und anschließend potenzielle Korrektivmaßnahmen zur Verringerung derselben diskutiert.

One of the triggering events of the Civil War helped divide a nation but also launched a cannonade of persuasive essays and propaganda. Early press reaction to John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry ranged from indignant horror in the South to stunned disbelief in the North.

This book explores the moment when literature and history collided and literature rewrote history. This volume features 30 photographs, maps, proclamations and broadsides and a detailed timeline of events surrounding the raid.
John Brown is a lightning rod of history. Yet he is poorly understood and most commonly described in stereotypes -- as a madman, martyr, or enigma. Not until Patriotic Treason has a biography or history brought him so fully to life, in scintillating prose and moving detail, making his life and legacy -- and the staggering sacrifices he made for his ideals-fascinatingly relevant to today's issues of social justice and to defining the line between activism and terrorism. Vividly re-creating the world in which Brown and his compatriots lived with a combination of scrupulous original research, new perspectives, and a sensitive historical imagination, Patriotic Treason narrates the dramatic life ...

Oates describes with subtlety and detail John Brown’s early career, his struggles with poverty, illness and death, the desperate straits the man was put to in support of his large family of twenty children.
