Book excerpt: Disney has done it. Chemical Bank has also. So, too, have thousands of other companies. In fact, it has become a staple of American business today: mergers and acquisitions. Spreading across all industry lines and encompassing corporations both large and small, merger and acquisition deals are booming. In 1995 alone, the value of all announced deals exceeded $300 billion, including Disney's $19 billion acquisition of Capital Cities and Chemical Bank's $10 billion merger with Chase Manhattan. As a dynamic means of fostering growth, more and more companies will be looking to "do the deal," making it essential for corporate managers and financial officers to know their way around the M&A process. In this authoritative new reference, Jeffrey Hooke-a specialist in the field who has participated in 70 corporate finance transactions-provides a practical, comprehensive, and well-rounded overview to the ins and outs of M&A deals. Using real-life examples, Hooke takes you step by step through the M&A process, outlining the fundamental principles that underlie deals and pinpointing the important strategies that play key roles in successful transactions. The first step is developing a disciplined acquisition plan that includes a researched assessment of management readiness and financial capability. With your finances in order, it's time to find the deal that matches your company's objectives. Hooke shows you how to initiate an acquisition search by starting your own program, screening candidates, and implementing direct contact; and when you're ready to price and close a deal, Hooke's proven valuation and negotiating strategies will have you on firm footing. An invaluable primer for corporate executives and investment professionals involved in the mergers and acquisitions process, M&A is the most complete guide available today.

Download or read book Beauty Up written by Laura Miller and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2006-07-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging introduction to Japan's burgeoning beauty culture investigates a wide range of phenomenon—aesthetic salons, dieting products, male beauty activities, and beauty language—to find out why Japanese women and men are paying so much attention to their bodies. Laura Miller uses social science and popular culture sources to connect breast enhancements, eyelid surgery, body hair removal, nipple bleaching, and other beauty work to larger issues of gender ideology, the culturally-constructed nature of beauty ideals, and the globalization of beauty technologies and standards. Her sophisticated treatment of this timely topic suggests that new body aesthetics are not forms of "deracializiation" but rather innovative experimentation with identity management. While recognizing that these beauty activities are potentially a form of resistance, Miller also considers the commodification of beauty, exploring how new ideals and technologies are tying consumers even more firmly to an ever-expanding beauty industry. By considering beauty in a Japanese context, Miller challenges widespread assumptions about the universality and naturalness of beauty standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling author of Pledged returns with a groundbreaking look at the pressure to achieve faced by America's teens In Pledged, Alexandra Robbins followed four college girls to produce a riveting narrative that read like fiction. Now, in The Overachievers, Robbins uses the same captivating style to explore how our high-stakes educational culture has spiraled out of control. During the year of her ten-year reunion, Robbins goes back to her high school, where she follows heart-tuggingly likeable students including "AP" Frank, who grapples with horrifying parental pressure to succeed; Audrey, whose panicked perfectionism overshadows her life; Sam, who worries his years of overachieving will be wasted if he doesn't attend a name-brand college; Taylor, whose ambition threatens her popular girl status; and The Stealth Overachiever, a mystery junior who flies under the radar. Robbins tackles teen issues such as intense stress, the student and teacher cheating epidemic, sports rage, parental guilt, the black market for study drugs, and a college admissions process so cutthroat that students are driven to suicide and depression because of a B. With a compelling mix of fast-paced narrative and fascinating investigative journalism, The Overachievers aims both to calm the admissions frenzy and to expose its escalating dangers.

Book excerpt: Kayden Matthews messed up. Again. But this time, it's huge. He's out of professional football. He's out of his family. He's out of money. The party's over. He's a bust. The only thing he has going for him is that he still has his arm. In other words, he can still play-if any team would have him. But if they look at his past behavior, the wild times that got him into this current situation? Chances are nil that he'll ever get back on a field. Yeah, done. And what else is there in life besides football and the party that went along with it? Well, he does have one other thing. That girl he met-Karol? Kristina? No, Kylie! That weird woman who lives with her old dog and treats it like another human. Somehow, and before he really knows it, they do get to be friends. Somehow, she seems to like him, no matter if he is finished in football, washed up, alone. Lonely. Well, maybe Kylie is, too. Of course, she has her dog, and she doesn't really need anyone else-that's what she keeps saying, anyway. She's looking for adventure and she's never going to stay long in one place, no matter how good it is. Circumstances are pulling her onwards, and she has to go, no matter what she's leaving behind. Kayden and Kylie are nothing alike. In fact, they're so opposite, they shouldn't get along at all. But there is something between them-and that something is leading to love and an ending neither of them expected!
