All hail the new masters of Capitalism: How asset managers acquired the world
Banks have taken a backseat since the global financial crisis over a decade ago. Today, our new financial masters are asset managers, like Blackstone and BlackRock. And they don't just own financial assets.
The roads we drive on; the pipes that supply our drinking water; the farmland that provides our food; energy systems for electricity and heat; hospitals, schools, and even the homes in which many of us live-all now swell asset managers' bulging investment portfolios.
As the owners of more and more of the basic building blocks of everyday life, asset managers shape the lives of each and every one of us in profound and disturbing ways. In this eye-opening follow-up to Rentier Capitalism, Brett Christophers peels back the veil on ""asset manager society.""
Asset managers, he shows, are unlike traditional owners of housing and other essential infrastructure. Buying and selling these life-supporting assets at a dizzying pace, the crux of their business model is not long-term investment and careful custodianship but making quick profits for themselves and the investors that back them.
In asset manager society, the natural and built environments that sustain us become one more vehicle for siphoning money from the many to the few.
Trudno odnaleźć twór bardziej złożony od ludzkiego mózgu. I paradoksalnie –twór najmniej poznany. Jesteśmy całkowicie zależni od tej nieco ponadkilogramowej galaretki w naszej głowie. Nastroje, pragnienia, emocje, świadomość, zdolności intelektualne – za to wszystko odpowiada mózg i jego określone struktury, wraz z powstającym w układzie nerwowym szeregiem neuroprzekaz´ników i zmianami zachodzącymi w biochemicznej zupie.
To, co oddziałuje na nasz mózg, z czym codziennie się on styka – kształtuje to, jacy jesteśmy. To od nas, od tego, czym – dosłownie i w przenośni – karmimy go codziennie, w ogromnej mierze zależy to, jak funkcjonuje.
Modyfikacja naszej diety, zachowania oraz rutyny – i w związku z tym pracy mózgu – ma podstawowe znaczenie dla profilaktyki wielu chorób oraz dla lepszego codziennego funkcjonowania. Możemy zrobić o wiele więcej dla poprawienia sprawności mózgu niż jakiegokolwiek innego narządu naszego ciała.
Dzisiaj mamy już pewność, że m.in. to:
• co i jak jemy
• w jakiej kondycji są nasze jelita
• ile czasu dziennie jesteśmy w ruchu
• jak dużą wagę przywiązujemy do jakościowego odpoczynku i snu
• w znacznym stopniu definiuje zdrowie i pełnię funkcjonowania naszego mózgu!
Dr Asia Podgórska przybliża czytelnikowi zależność między stylem życia a kondycją komórek nerwowych. Jeśli chcesz poznać bliżej swój mózg, zrozumieć, jak neurony komunikują się ze sobą, czym jest neuroplastyczność i skąd bierze się serotonina, ta książka jest właśnie dla Ciebie!

Święta Brygida Szwedzka żyła w XIV wieku. Pochodziła, jak wskazuje przydomek, ze Skandynawii. Boski Zbawiciel zaszczycił ją objawieniem Piętnastu modlitw. Fakt objawienia miał miejsce w stolicy chrześcijaństwa, a więc na terenie Wiecznego Miasta, kiedy Święta nawiedziła sławną bazylikę Świętego Pawła, Apostoła Narodów. Praktyka Piętnastu modlitw ze względu na błogosławione owoce otrzymała nazwę Tajemnica szczęścia. Osoba, która codziennie podejmuje to religijne ćwiczenie, w ciągu roku odmówi tyle modlitw wraz z Ojcze nasz i Zdrowaś Maryjo, ile nasz Zbawiciel otrzymał ciosów podczas swojej bol

For over 150 years, Louis Vuitton’s monographed bags have been associated with style and luxury. Born in 1821, he had left home at 13 to seek his fortune in Paris where he became an apprentice box-maker which eventually led him to introductions at the French Royal Court. With royal endorsement, Louis opened of his first workshop in 1854 where his skills and innovations established his brand as one of Europe’s most popular.
Passing his passion for crafting beautiful luggage onto his son, Georges, and later his grandson Gaston-Louis, they ensured the company continued to grow, surviving two world wars, to become the luxury brand it’s renowned for.
Louis Vuitton stores opened in cities throughout the world and expanded into other high-end brands. The merger in 1987 with Möet Hennessy created the megabrand LVMH, and in 1997 the appointment of Marc Jacobs launched Louis Vuitton into the world of fashion.
