Book Synopsis :

The epic story of the rise and fall of the empire of cotton, its centrality to the world economy, and its making and remaking of global capitalism.Cotton is so ubiquitous as to be almost invisible, yet understanding its history is key to understanding the origins of modern capitalism. Sven Beckert?s rich, fascinating book tells the story of how, in a remarkably brief period, European entrepreneurs and powerful statesmen recast the world?s most significant manufacturing industry, combining imperial expansion and slave labor with new machines and wage workers to change the world. Here is the story of how, beginning well before the advent of machine production in the 1780s, these men captured ancient trades and skills in Asia, and combined them with the expropriation of lands in the Americas and the enslavement of African workers to crucially reshape the disparate realms of cotton that had existed for millennia, and how industrial capitalism gave birth to an empire, and how this force

Ponzinomics: The Untold Story of Multi-Level Marketing By : Robert L. Fitzpatrick ==>> READ BOOK NOW   ==>> DOWNLOAD BOOK NOW   Book Synopsis : Ponzinomics by Robert L. FitzPatrick, author of False Profits, is the first comprehensive account of how "multi-level marketing" was created in America, escaped criminal and civil prosecution and spread all over the world. It is the first book to deeply investigate the multi-level marketing phenomenon and to fully explain how the legitimate business of "direct selling" was turned into deceptive pyramid recruiting. Ponzinomics dissects the elements that distinguish "multi-level marketing" from legitimate sales, and reveals how a "business" could become a delusional belief and a pyramid scheme a pseudo-business model.

Girard and was introduced to his theory of ?mimetic desire? - the idea that most human wanting comes from imitating what other people desire, rather than from an innate sense of need. Inducted into the Acad?mie Fran?aise as the ?Darwin of the social sciences,? Girard is largely unknown outside academic circles.
