Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delightfully quirky chicken Warren and his sidekick Egg embark on dual adventures when Egg decides to cross the road in this follow-up to Extraordinary Warren, which Publishers Weekly called “a good-humored story that nicely blends picture book, chapter book, and graphic novel elements.” Warren, the bespectacled hero of Extraordinary Warren, is delighted to have a sidekick and feathered friend in the newly hatched Egg. But Egg is rather exasperating. New to the world, he asks so many questions and has so much to learn. Early one morning Egg takes off on his own and crosses the road, where he winds up getting lost in a field of corn. Warren is so busy imagining his flight to the moon that he doesn’t even know Egg is missing! But when Warren finally realizes Egg has flown the coop, nothing stops him from locating his best buddy—not even that hungry rat, Millard. Filled with simple text, speech balloons, and engaging illustrations, this easy-to-follow story is a blend between a picture book and a chapter book, making it an ideal bridge for independent readers.

Book excerpt: Jetzt erscheint erstmals eine Warren Buffett-Biographie in Comic-Form. Sie zeichnet das Leben von Buffett nach - angefangen bei seiner frühen Kindheit bis hin zu seinem kometenhaften Aufstieg als legendärer Investor. Buffett wurde am 30. August 1930 - zur Zeit der Weltwirtschaftskrise - geboren. Diese Zeit der Entbehrungen prägte ihn nachhaltig, und schon als Kind war es sein Ziel, reich zu werden. Bereits im Alter von 6 Jahren erwachte Buffetts Geschäftssinn - er verkaufte Coca Cola mit einem Cent Gewinn pro Flasche; mit 13 trug er für 500 Kunden die Washington Post und The Times Herald aus; mit 14 verdiente er bereits 175 Dollar pro Woche - das war 1944 der Durchschnittsverdienst eines 25-jährigen. Im Alter von 19 Jahren las Buffett "The Intelligent Investor" von Benjamin Graham und beschloss, mehr über Wertpapieranalyse zu lernen. Zwei Jahre besuchte er die Wharton Business School; seinen Abschluss machte er an der Columbia University School of Business in Nebraska, unter Professor Benjamin Graham, der ihn später als Analyst bei Graham-Newman einstellte. Buffett entwickelte die Theorien seines Lehrers Graham weiter und suchte neue Herausforderungen: Mit 26 war er Chef von drei Unternehmen und verwaltete mehrere Millionen Dollar. In den Folgejahren kauft Buffett AMEX, Amerikas marktführendes Kreditkarten-Unternehmen, bringt Berkshire Hathaway wieder auf Erfolgskurs, rettet GEICO, den KFZ-Versicherer, den er als Student analysierte und der Benjamin Graham zu seinen Großaktionären zählt, und er rettet Salomon Brothers aus der Krise, und, und, und... Aber lesen Sie hier selbst alles über "das Orakel von Omaha"! Verschaffen Sie sich einen Einblick in die Denkweise dieses zweifellos größten Investors aller Zeiten und lernen Sie mehr über seine sieben goldenen Erfolgsregeln, wie z.B.: Entscheide dich für Unternehmen, die leicht zu verstehen sind. (Investiere nie in Unternehmen, die du nicht verstehst!). Entscheide dich für Unternehmen mit einer langfristig stabilen Performance. Entscheide dich für Unternehmen mit einer vielversprechenden Zukunft. Freuen Sie sich auf eine leichte, unterhaltsame und höchst informative Lektüre. Dieses wunderschön illustrierte Comic-Buch wurde von der bekannten japanischen Künstlerin Ayano Morio gezeichnet. Es wurde aus dem Japanischen ins Englische übersetzt und ist Wileys erstes Finanz-Comicbuch.

Download or read book Warren Buffett s Ground Rules written by Jeremy C. Miller and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the letters Warren Buffett wrote to his partners between 1956 and 1970, a veteran financial advisor presents the renowned guru’s “ground rules” for investing—guidelines that remain startlingly relevant today. In the fourteen years between his time in New York with value-investing guru Benjamin Graham and his start as chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett managed Buffett Partnership Limited, his first professional investing partnership. Over the course of that time—a period in which he experienced an unprecedented record of success—Buffett wrote semiannual letters to his small but growing group of partners, sharing his thoughts, approaches, and reflections. Compiled for the first time and with Buffett’s permission, the letters spotlight his contrarian diversification strategy, his almost religious celebration of compounding interest, his preference for conservative rather than conventional decision making, and his goal and tactics for bettering market results by at least 10% annually. Demonstrating Buffett’s intellectual rigor, they provide a framework to the craft of investing that had not existed before: Buffett built upon the quantitative contributions made by his famous teacher, Benjamin Graham, demonstrating how they could be applied and improved. Jeremy Miller reveals how these letters offer us a rare look into Buffett’s mind and offer accessible lessons in control and discipline—effective in bull and bear markets alike, and in all types of investing climates—that are the bedrock of his success. Warren Buffett’s Ground Rules paints a portrait of the sage as a young investor during a time when he developed the long-term value-oriented strategy that helped him build the foundation of his wealth—rules for success every investor needs today.

This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kenneth Warren was a powerful figure in twentieth century medicine whose work transformed public health policy and tropical medicine, and who left a profound legacy in global health thinking. A prolific writer and researcher, Warren was respected for his scientific research, winning awards and accolades, while his later role as activist, agitator, innovator and connoisseur of science brought him international recognition. His career in medicine is remembered for three enduring achievements: · His efforts to introduce modern biomedical science to the study of infectious diseases in the developing world · The proselytising energy he brought to the ethical challenge of how to provide the most cost-effective health care to the world’s poorest people · His tenure as Director of Health Sciences at the Rockefeller Foundation, during which time he inaugurated the Great Neglected Diseases of Mankind Programme Told through personal interviews with both Warren’s supporters and detractors, the story of Warren’s career, inexorably interwoven with the GND programme, is a compelling narrative that has not only enduring implications for current medical research, funding and healthcare across the globe, but also a long-standing legacy for the future ways in which we combat disease in the developing world.

Download or read book Sheilas Wogs and Poofters written by Johnny Warren and published by Random House Australia. This book was released on 2011-10-26 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Fascinating account of a great sporting life and an insider's look at the byzantine world of soccer politics. The essential Australian story of the World Game - Bob Carr Johnny Warren received an MBE (1973), ASM (2000) Centenary Medal (2001), OAM (2003) and the FIFA Order of Merit (2004) Johnny Warren is a credit to Australia and the game that he loves. His is a great story which I heartily recommend to all sports fans - Martin Tyler From a nine-year-old who was initially rejected by his local under-12's team because he was "too small and needed to go home and eat more porridge" to leading the Socceroos from 1964 to 1974 through three World Cup campaigns as captain and vice-captain, Johnny Warren witnessed every stage of Australia's soccer journey for over fifty years. From the days you were called a "sheila", "wog" or "poofter" if you played soccer to today when players such as Harry Kewell are celebrated as our brightest sporting stars and prized by overseas clubs; from the curse placed on the Socceroos in 1969 by an African witch doctor through to more than thirty agonising years of trying to qualify for soccer's Holy Grail, the World Cup, Johnny Warren revealed the highs and lows of Australian soccer's past and present, and how its future success can be achieved. Including all the action from the 2002 World Cup - the Cup that caught the hearts and imaginations of Australians everywhere. In February 2003, then-NSW Premier Bob Carr set up a $1.5 million soccer training academy named the "Johnny Warren Soccer Academy" to develop players and increase Australia's chances of securing the 2014 World Cup.
