One of the greatest masterpieces of the 20th century, Sergei Parajanovs "Color of the Pomegranate", a biography of the Armenian troubadour Sayat Nova (King of Song) reveals the poets life more through his poetry than a conventional narration of important events in Sayat Novas life. We see the poet grow up, fall in love, enter a monastery and die, but these incidents are depicted in the context of what are images from Sergei Parajanovs imagination and Sayat Novas poems, poems that are seen and rarely heard. Sofiko Chiaureli plays 6 roles, both male and female, and Sergei Parajanov writes, directs, edits, choreographs, works on costumes, design and decor and virtually every aspect of this revolutionary work void of any dialog or camera movement.

The Mathematics of Money: Math for Business and Personal Finance covers all the traditional topics of the business math course, but with a more algebraic focus than many of the texts currently on the market. The text develops a solid understanding of percent and interest early, then applies that foundation to other applications in business and personal finance. While it is appropriate for students of all levels, the book takes the approach that even if students are coming into the class with only high school math, neither they nor the instructor need to be afraid of algebra; it takes care to clearly present and reinforce the formulas given and to consistently return to them and apply the material to contexts that are relevant to the students.

Why is money more valuable than the paper on which it is printed? Monetarists link the value of money to its supply and demand, believing the latter depends on the total value of the commodities it circulates. According to Prabhat Patnaik, this logic is flawed. In his view, in any nonbarter economy, the value we assign to money is determined independently of its supply and demand.

This book reconstructs the dynamics of economics, beginning explicitly with the role and the relevance of time: money uses the future in order to generate present wealth. Financial markets sell and buy risk, thereby binding the future. Elena Esposito explains that complex risk management techniques of structured finance produce new and uncontrolled risks because they use a simplified idea of the future, failing to account for how the future reacts to attempts at controlling it. During the recent financial crisis, the future had already been used (through securitizations, derivatives and other tools) to the extent that we had many futures, but no open future available.

Consider the timing of this wonderful study guide to the best book ever written on money and credit. The book itself was written 100 years ago. The world economy is in the throes of another financial and debt crisis. Keynesianism has completely failed. Fiat money has too. Above it all stands Misess masterwork, laying out the whole correct theory of money: it should be sound, solid, and market controlled. Here is the guide to the book that still has a voice after 100 years, and that voice is stronger than ever. Mises wrote it as a warning against central banking, predicting that this institution would produce more instability than ever before, plus inflation, debt, and deep danger to the pillars of prosperity. He was right in every case. In this new guide, Robert Murphy takes the reader through Misess book one chapter at a time. He provides summaries, points for discussion, study questions, and assesses the book in light of modern history. Most of all, Misess book teaches the theory of money, and with Professor Murphys guide, you will understand where money comes from, what it does, how it is manage in a market, and what government does to destroy it. Most people agree that this was not only a great book, but perhaps the greatest monetary treatise ever written. The original book can, however, be intimidating and even scary. This guide opens it up as never before!

Eddie Money was always reliable for turning out a hit single or radio anthem on each of his records. Often, it felt like all of his energy went into a couple of songs per album, since the remainder of each record, while frequently enjoyable, was cluttered with filler. Which is a roundabout way of saying what a welcome addition Greatest Hits: The Sound of Money is to Moneys catalog: not only is it a fine collection of his hits, its the most consistent record hes assembled. Not that its perfect. Some of his smaller hits are missing and theres a bit of filler even on this hits disc, but the truly essential items -- "Baby Hold On," "Two Tickets to Paradise," "I Wanna Go Back," "Walk on Water," "Shakin," "Take Me Home Tonight," "Think Im in Love," even "Peace in Our Time" -- are here, and the best of them really do define what album rock was all about at the turn of the 70s and early 80s.
