Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. When Jeffrey Greene, a prizewinning American poet, and Mary, his wife-to-be, a molecular biologist at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, discover a moss-covered stone presbytery in a lovely village in the Puisaye region of Burgundy, they know they have to live there. With an unabashed joie de vivre, they begin the arduous process of procuring their slice of paradise amid the wild beauty of the French countryside -- a place of gentle farmlands and dense forests, of rivers and lakes, of stunning fields bursting with the color and heady scent of wildflowers. French Spirits is the magical tale of their odyssey to become not just homeowners but Burgundians. In lush, lyrical prose, Greene recalls their experiences turning the three-hundred-year-old stone building -- a "château in miniature," which the locals believe houses numerous spirits--into a habitable refuge. He brings to life their adventures in finding wonderful bargains with which to furnish their new space, including a firm mattress and some rather suspicious "antiques" bought from the back of a van. Greene offers the unexpected joys and surprises of village life, from celebrating his and Mary's simple backyard wedding to discovering summer fêtes from toiling in a verdant garden to trading insights with new neighbors. He shares the experience of surviving his mother's decision to move in and humorously introduces the locals -- both human and nonhuman -- who define his and Mary's new world. Woven throughout this luscious tale are the pleasures of rural France: wondrous food and wine, long-held rituals and feasts, dark superstitions and deeply rooted history. A memorable feast for the senses, French Spirits will entertain and enlighten all who succumb to its charms.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Under the Sea For this little girl, there's nothing like swimming at the shore with just her dad. But when too many people tag along, she escapes the crowd--and her dad--to be by herself. With a splash into the sea, she discovers a fascinating new world. It's an underwater adventure as she meets everything from puckermouth squids to great big whales--and makes an amazing discovery along the way. In an adventure full of fantasy and the affections of every day, a little girl swims to the ocean bottom when she can't be alone with her father on a boating trip. But though the fish down deep are frolicsome and the sights are extraordinary, she soon resurfaces back in her own world, where her father, at last all alone, awaits her.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Future-proof your business today for stronger performance tomorrow The Stress Test Every Business Needs: A Capital Agenda for Confidently Facing Digital Disruption, Difficult Investors, Recessions and Geopolitical Threats provides a comprehensive approach to creating value and flexibility in an increasingly volatile business environment that presents both great risks and opportunities every day. The authors extend the banking ?stress test? concept to a company?s Capital Agenda ? how executives manage capital, execute transactions and apply corporate finance tools to strategic and operational decisions. Having a static Capital Agenda, however appropriate for your current market position, is not enough in today's uncertain world. Long-term success comes from building resilience into each element and in the way those elements interact. The book uses a broader definition of business stress that includes traditional macroeconomic and geopolitical risks, as well as technological disruption, hostile takeovers and activist shareholders. Companies that make poor strategic decisions or underperform operationally will likely find themselves facing great stress. And that stress is symmetric; threats come from downside risks and from missed opportunities. The chapters address the how and why of essential issues such as: Formulating corporate strategy in a digital worldPre-empting activist shareholdersRestoring distressed companies to operational and financial healthEnsuring effective collaboration among strategy, finance and operationsGetting the most out of your advisorsProactively managing intrinsic valueRigorously allocating capital across the enterpriseAcquiring and divesting for optimum valueSyncing financing decisions with business strategy and capital market conditionsIncorporating tax planning throughout the Capital AgendaLiberating excess cash with leading working capital management practicesAligning strategic goals and metrics to reach your company?s full potential Companies that develop strategy and set operational priorities with a balanced Capital Agenda are best positioned to control their own destiny. The Stress Test Every Business Needs provides a roadmap to future-proof your business today for stronger performance tomorrow.…
