Handbook of Frauds, Scams, and Swindles
It has been said that scammers and swindlers often display characteristics commonly attributed to good leadership. These include setting a vision, communicating it clearly, and motivating others to follow their lead. But when these skills are used by unconscionable people to satisfy greed, how can the average person recognize that foul play is afoo
Stock Market Efficiency, Insider Dealing and Market Abuse
The recent turbulence in the stock market has brought into question the way, and prices at which, shares are traded, and how the market effectively values companies. It has also raised public concern as to the way by which dealers and investors take advantage of changes in market prices. A number of high profile criminal prosecutions of insider dealing and market abuse and the frequent claims of other instances, combined with the changes in regulations resulting in a more aggressive and proactive stance by the various regulators, have brought the issue under the spotlight. This book discusses what makes stock market efficiency so important for the economy, looks at the theory and issues that underpin market abuse and why an offence often dismissed as a victimless crime is punished so severely. It explores the impact of perception and other factors that distort the market and outlines the extent of abuse. Regulators, lawyers, company officials, investigators, professional advisers and of course investors, both professional and otherwise will find this a helpful guide to the underlying elements of fraud and market manipulation.

Story Theology
We understand who we are and the world we live in only because of story. Without story, it is impossible to define our identity, meaning, purpose, or action. The Bible, after all, is a story--it begins with Alpha and ends with Omega. It is God's story--the story of everything. By it, we learn how the Christian story is not a piece of a larger story but claims to be the story in which other stories find their place. To answer the most fundamental questions about who we are and the world we live in, we must use a story. From a mother who visits her son on death row, to a disillusioned man questioning suicide, to a family experiencing the hope and hardship of a premature baby, this book explores ten central themes of the gospel--steadfast love, sin, faith, holiness, joy, goodness, hope, compassion, forgiveness, and peace--in story form. An interpretation of each story follows in a section where careful analysis sheds light on each biblical theme. By using storytelling to communicate theological truth, this work provides a unique resource for theological reflection that's helpful for anyone willing to step into a story.
Reason and Morality
First Published in 1985. What is the place of reason and conversely of the unreasonable, the contradictory, the emotional and the chaotic in social life? What is the nature of general human rationality? Are there such things as incommensurable world views? How efficacious are typologies or 'modes of thought' or cognitive styles? These are some of the controversies addressed by the contributors to this volume which draws together papers from the 1984 Malinowski Centennial Conference of the ASA.
Old Wounds
Aaron Ginsberg, a survivor of Auschwitz spots one of his Nazi captors, SS Doctor Klaus Reiner at a Seattle Airport some forty years after World War Two ended. A week later after flying back to Milwaukee, Ginsberg disappears. A worried wife and son contact Paul Rice and ask for his help in finding Ginsberg. Paul takes the case and has to fly out to Seattle to talk to another Auschwitz survivor and friend of Ginsberg’s. During Rice’s investigation he encounters an ex-Nazi who would like to get even with the United States for Germany losing another war, and a couple of enemies who would like nothing better than to one-up Rice, including the Gleaners, the Wolf-Bipeds, the newer version of the Nazis, and Kimberly Hayes, the new possessor of the Durie Grimoire, who would like to turn Rice into stone, like she did her husband.
