Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Plus-sized P.I. Savannah Reid and her new husband, Dirk Coulter, were hoping for a little honeymoon excitement, but finding a freshly killed body on the beach wasn't what they had in mind.

Zustand: Good. Wir wollen ges nder leben, geben beim Einkauf aber s en Verlockungen nach. Wir m ssten, sorgen aber nur unzureichend finanziell f r das Alter vor. Unser konomisches Verhalten ist inkonsistent, kontextabh ngig, gepr gt von Heuristiken, Verzerrungen, wie Altersaversion, Gegenwartspr ferenz, Daumenregeln, sozialen Normen. Dies lehrt uns die Verhaltens konomik. Ihr Instrument dagegen sind Nudges - sanfte Stupser . Damit sollen die Menschen zu ihrem Wohl minimalintensiv beeinflusst werden, ohne ihre Optionen einzuschr nken. In dem Vierteljahrsheft werden kontroverse Aspekte von Nudges diskutiert: Ethische Merkmale und das Menschenbild des Konzepts werden unterschiedlich beurteilt. Legitime Nudges sollten zumindest nicht einschr nken, nicht manipulieren, transparent kommuniziert werden. Das fortlaufende Lernen neuer Pr ferenzen wird als ein Gegenentwurf formuliert. Begr ndet wird, warum Nudging in Unternehmen nicht paternalistisch sei. Vertreten wird, Nudges wirkten beschleunigend als behavioural spin , seien aber rekonfigurierte konventionelle Instrumente. Berichtet wird ber die internationale Etablierung des Politikkonzepts durch Institutionalisierung. Vorteile von Global Nudges werden unterbreitet, die als erg nzende Instrumente bei Entscheidungen ber globale ffentliche G ter (Klimawandel, Finanzmarkt) eingesetzt werden k nnten.…

Zustand: Good. P.I. Savannah Reid is shaken to the core when coroner Dr. Jennifer Liu appears on her doorstep late one night with a disturbing confession. In a potentially career-ruining move, a remorseful Dr. Liu admits to fudging an autopsy report to keep her friend Brianne's suicide a secret--fulfilling a final promise made before the terminally ill woman administered a lethal drug cocktail. But after Dr. Liu finds the same unique mixture in a second body, she fears the deaths share a dark connection. Apprehensive about concealing a felony, Savannah and the Moonlight Magnolia Detective Agency launch a discreet investigation into Brianne's rare condition and the deadly concoction linking the two bodies. As chilling evidence points to an undeniable case of double murder, the agency races to slim down the suspect list and blow the lid off a shifty criminal's poisonous agenda. Savannah only hopes that, like Dr. Liu, her desire to help a friend won't put her reputation at risk--or, worse, land her on the next slab.…

Zustand: Very Good. Plus-sized P.I. Savannah Reid and her pals at the Moonlight Magnolia Detective Agency know a thing or two about fine dining. But when murder shows up on the menu, it's time to go back to the kitchen. When the Moonlight Magnolia gang learns their friends Ryan Stone and John Gibson are planning to open a chic new restaurant, they eagerly offer their input on everything from what dishes to serve to how many calories they should contain. But all Ryan and John can think about is how excited they are to have hired the temperamental but talented chef Baldwin Norwood. Too bad the only thing being sliced and diced in the kitchen is the chef himself. As Savannah turns her attention from munchies to murder, she quickly realizes the cantankerous chef left a bad taste in everyone's mouth, and any number of people could have whipped up a recipe for revenge. Could the jilted sous chef he stabbed in the back have done the same to him? Perhaps the loyal girlfriend he took for granted was finally fed up. Or maybe the business partner whose career he ruined had an appetite for blood. Savannah has her work cut out for her, and just when she thinks there couldn't be any more suspects, she uncovers a plot more precarious than a perfect souffle.…
