In his most prescriptive book to date, financial expert and investment advisor James Rickards shows how and why our financial markets are being artificially inflated--and what smart investors can do to protect their assets What goes up, must come down. As any student of financial history knows, the dizzying heights of the stock market can't continue indefinitely--especially since asset prices have been artificially inflated by investor optimism around the Trump administration, ruinously low interest rates, and the infiltration of behavioral economics into our financial lives. The elites are prepared, but what's the average investor to do? James Rickards, the author of the prescient books Currency Wars, The Death of Money, and The Road to Ruin, lays out the true risks to our financial system, and offers invaluable advice on how best to weather the storm. You'll learn, for instance: * How behavioral economists prop up the market: Funds that administer 401(k)s use all kinds of tricks to make you invest more, inflating asset prices to unsustainable levels.* Why digital currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are best avoided.
* Why passive investing has been overhyped: The average investor has been scolded into passively managed index funds. But active investors will soon have a big advantage.
* What the financial landscape will look like after the next crisis: it will not be an apocalypse, but it will be radically different. Those who forsee this landscape can prepare now to preserve wealth. Provocative, stirring, and full of counterintuitive advice, Aftermath is the book every smart investor will want to get their hands on--as soon as possible.

YOU can actually LEARN to do this!
Format: Paperback
"Eavesdropping on Animals” by George Bumann really was a welcome break for me as I spend so much time outside in Nature. George is also amazing at being able to read Nature in a way I had never seen before. His insight via really listening & paying attention to everything around him, is so precise - he can literally know where animals are without seeing them. I got this book mainly because HE wrote it & I knew it would be interesting. The thing that surprised me was he actually teaches you how to do what he does (ie: know exactly where a wolf pack is traveling by hearing a certain coyote call & knowing the terrain). I started simply by really paying attention to all of the bird songs going on outside my window very early each morning & could finally hear ones that were repetitively there & was able to figure out what they meant by getting outside & sitting on my patio as I drank my tea. If you LOVE NATURE, you would so get into this book. It’s a great teaching guide, plus his stories are so cool! Entertaining & informative to read.

Will forever change your experiences in nature!
Format: Hardcover
I am an instructor in animal language in the wildlife ecology department at two leading universities and I can attest that George is an expert animal whisperer/linguist. I've had the pleasure of knowing him and hearing his stories, and this book is an outstanding gateway into understanding the behavior of animals. It will reveal a whole new world to you every time you step outside, whether you live in an urban area or next to a wilderness.

An Incredible Resource
Format: Hardcover
The author has a wealth of knowledge about wildlife gained through his education, his work as a naturalist in Yellowstone National Park, his observations as a wildlife sculptor and the time he spends in Yellowstone for the sheer enjoyment of watching the animals. The concept of learning how animals communicate with each other is fascinating. Bumann shares his knowledge from his observations in an entertaining and fascinating way. Obviously, he has a love of the animals and a love of what he does. What a gifted author!
