Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. An in-depth, authoritative, and timely look at the unprecedented economic war the US and its European allies are waging against Russia after Putin's invasion of Ukraine--written by a veteran journalist with unparalleled access to Western and Russian sources. Undeterred by eight years of timid US sanctions, Vladimir Putin ordered his full-scale assault on Ukraine on February 24, 2022. In the hours that followed across the world, Western leaders weaponized economic tools to counter an unprecedented land grab by a nuclear-armed power. What followed was an undeniably world-changing financial experiment that risked throwing the world into a devastating recession. The end goal was simple: to sap the strength of Putin's war machine and damage the Russian economy--once the eleventh largest on the planet. Here, Russian expert and veteran journalist Stephanie Baker explains in fascinating detail how this furious shadow-war unfolded: its causes, how it is being executed, and its ability to affect Russia and the course of history. From seizing superyachts to manipulating the global price of oil to trying to block the sale of military technology to Russia, we learn how the White House coordinated with top officials in London and Brussels to freeze a staggering $300 billion in foreign currency reserves accumulated in the West by Russia's central bank. Mobilizing an army of white collar-crime investigators and experts on international law, Baker explores how the West has cracked down on illicit Russian money by targeting oligarchs, one superyacht at a time, and their enablers around the world. Filled with propulsive, fly-on-the-wall details, Punishing Putin takes us into the frantic backroom deliberations that led to a whole new era of carefully calculated economic statecraft and shows how these new strategies are already radically rearranging global alliances that will influence the world order today, and for generations to come.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Nine-year-old Emma is lost at sea in a terrible storm. She awakens on a desolate island, frightened and lonely. Yet brave, quick-witted Emma will not be alone for long, as the ghost of a bellboy appears with the tragic tale of the Grand Wenlocke. More than a century ago, a brilliant inventor built a splendid Victorian resort, the Grand Wenlocke. The hotel was powered by a Difference Engine, a miraculous device that could slow down time (making your vacation just as long as you'd like). But just before it was scheduled to open, the Grand Wenlocke mysteriously sank under the sand. Now the storm that brought Emma to the island has awakened the hotel, perfectly preserved and as incredible as ever. While exploring the magical hotel, Emma encounters a kind-hearted cook and her faithful little dog, a seemingly fearsome pirate captain, and the imperious young heir to the Wenlocke fortune (should it ever be recovered). Adventure, friendship, peril, and perhaps even treasure - all these and more await Emma at the hotel under the sand. Law, Stephanie Pui-Mun (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. A "masterful" (Foreign Policy), authoritative, and timely look at the unprecedented economic war the United States and its European allies are waging against Russia after Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine that "reads like a detective novel" (Nassim Nicholas Taleb)--written by a veteran journalist with unparalleled access to Western and Russian sources. Undeterred by eight years of timid US sanctions, Vladimir Putin ordered his full-scale assault on Ukraine on February 24, 2022. In the hours that followed, Western leaders weaponized economic tools to counter an unprecedented land grab by a nuclear-armed power. What unfolded was an undeniably world-changing financial experiment that risked throwing the globe into a devastating recession. The end goal was simple: to sap the strength of Putin's war machine and damage the Russian economy--once the eleventh largest on the planet. Here, veteran journalist Stephanie Baker explains in fascinating detail how this furious shadow war unfolded: its causes, how it is being executed, and its ability to affect Russia and the course of history. Punishing Putin reveals how Washington, Brussels, and London moved to seize superyachts, attempted to manipulate the global price of oil, and tried to block the sale of technology to Russia's military. The cost of the war mounted, and Baker tells the behind-the-scenes story of the decision to immobilize $300 billion in Russian central bank reserves accumulated in the West, and the fight over whether to use that pot of money for war-torn Ukraine. Baker also shows that the West, by mobilizing an army of white-collar investigators and experts on international law, has finally begun cracking down on illicit Russian money by targeting oligarchs, one superyacht at a time, and their enablers around the world. Filled with propulsive, fly-on-the-wall details, Punishing Putin takes us into the frantic backroom deliberations that led to a whole new era of carefully calculated "economic statecraft," and shows how these new strategies are radically rearranging global alliances that will influence the world order today and for generations to come.…
