David & Charles Land Rover Series I, II & IIA: The Essential
Book SynopsisThe Series Land Rover was conceived as a utility vehicle for farmers; one that could be repaired and maintained with the minimum of specialist tools.

The book describes the step by step development of the marque, so you are aware of each model’s individual strengths and weaknesses. Choose your preferred model, then be professionally guided through important aspects of the retail market, with clear instructions on where and how to check for specific potential problems before you buy. Evaluate and score your potential purchase against an exhaustive checklist, learn how to test-drive it with confidence, and be forewarned about running and maintenance costs. The book also details the Land Rover community from clubs to specialists. With over 100 colour photographs carefully integrated into the concise and informative text, this really is like having a marque expert beside you when viewing a potential purchase.Table of Contents1.

David & Charles Mercedes-Benz 190: all 190 models (W201 series)
Book SynopsisThe 190 (W 201) was a landmark car for Mercedes-Benz: the predecessor to today's C-Class models, it was the company's first compact saloon (sedan) and combined advanced engineering with a new direction in body styling, later followed by the W124 and R129 series. Engines available included robust petrol and diesel `fours', as well as a silky `straight-six'. The sporting 190 E 2.3-16 and 2.5-16 models, initially developed with Cosworth, took Mercedes to new levels of performance. Altogether, nearly 1.9 million cars were produced, and today the 190 is an increasingly sought-after modern classic. This guide will help you learn about the differences between models, and what to look for when buying. What are the true running costs, and what issues - with the mechanicals, body or interior - should you be wary of? Is a restoration worth considering? This handy guide will take you step-by-step through the process of finding and evaluating a good 190 and making a successful purchase. Essential data and information about clubs and specialists will help you look after and enjoy your 190.Trade ReviewThe vast disparity in prices between a mint 190 and a rough one reveals how important it is to buy well, so this latest addition to the Essential Buyer's Guide series is welcome. It covers all aspects of buying and owning the baby Benz, from paint to paperwork, and includes every model, from base diesel to the twin-cam Cosworths. It is a must to pop in the packet when you view a potential purchase. - Classic & Sports Car. This book provides helpful tools in evaluating this car if you are not familiar with them. - Chris Bass Freelance. Great addition to this growing range is this buying guide for Mercedes-Benz 190. Don't buy this car without a copy. - Practical Classics. Another excellent guide from Julian Parish, covering every 190 model up to and including the 16v cars. Covering everything from ideal specifications for resale through to things to check when buying and options to avoid, the book is vital for anyone looking to buy a 190 of they’re looking for the best. An excellent read ... there’s really no excuse not to buy it. Like the W123 book, there’s a comprehensive evaluation and grading system included for those keen to buy. – Mercedes Driver.Table of ContentsIntroduction 1. Is it the right car for you? 2.

Book SynopsisKommunale Nagelstudios, schwerfällige Bedenkenträger, Steuerverschwendung, Beamtenmentalität, Versorgungsstation für ausgediente Politiker - viele falsche Bilder und Vorstellungen zur kommunalen Wirtschaft sind fest im öffentlichen Bewusstsein verankert. Immer wieder werden die gleichen Stigmatisierungen kolportiert, mit denen der Kommunalwirtschaft fragwürdige Zuschreibungen angeheftet werden. Das Sachbuch klärt gut verständlich und nachvollziehbar über weit verbreitete Irrtümer auf.Manche dieser falschen Annahmen hält sich deshalb so zäh, weil sie auch in der politischen und publizistischen Zunft schlichtweg ungeprüft von einem zum anderen übernommen werden. Dieses unbedarfte „Beharrungsvermögen“ populärer Irrtümer ist nicht zu unterschätzen. Die Autoren beleuchten anhand vieler aktueller Beispiele aus der kommunalen Praxis den Hintergrund und Wahrheitsgehalt dieser populären Missverständnisse.Trade Review“...

Book SynopsisEinem erheblichen Teil der Weltbevölkerung den Weg aus der Armut zu ermöglichen, ist eine der großen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit und daher Diskussionsgegenstand dieses Buches. Der Erfolg westlicher Politik wird nach eigenem Selbstverständnis weitgehend daran gemessen, ob in der Dritten Welt die Wohlfahrt der Menschen soweit erhöht werden kann, dass keine materielle Not herrscht und darüber hinaus die Menschen an Kultur und Politik teilhaben können. Das Buch stellt sich folgende essenzielle Fragen: Wie hat sich die Wohlfahrt der Menschen in den Ländern der Dritten Welt im Zeitalter der Globalisierung verändert? Warum sind einige Länder und Regionen in Armut verharrt, haben sich andere davon befreien können und sind wieder andere wohlhabend geworden? Welche Rolle spielen dabei Staat und Markt? Lassen sich diese Entwicklungen von außen steuern, beispielsweise durch Entwicklungszusammenarbeit?

In einem Essay über die Dramen und Paradoxien des Wirtschaftslebens im 21. Jahrhundert entwirft Hans Gerd Prodoehl das Bild des abstrakten Menschen als eines Menschentypus, der mit den persönlichen und wirtschaftlichen Anforderungen des 21. Jahrhunderts am besten zurechtkommt.Dieses Buch handelt von einer dramatischen Epoche der Menschheitsgeschichte, deren Zeugen und Teilnehmer wir alle sind: von der Epoche des 21. Jahrhunderts. Und von dem Drama der Anpassung der Menschen an die Dramen dieser Epoche. Die Orte, an denen sich diese Dramen konzentrieren, sind die Hotspots der globalen Wirtschaft. In den Unternehmen, die sich in das Getriebe der globalen Wettbewerbswirtschaft hineinstürzen müssen, werden diese Dramen tagtäglich aufgeführt. Von dort aus durchdringen sie allmählich alle Bereiche der Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Und alle Lebenswelten der Menschen.

Springer BREXIT aus Versehen: Europäische Union zwischen
Book SynopsisIn diesem Buch wird eine klare Analyse der BREXIT-Widersprüche von Premierministerin Theresa Mays Global Britain-Politik und der Rolle der Finanzmärkte - bei Bankenaufsicht in einem Umfeld mit drohendem ITALEXIT und transatlantischen Trump-Handelskonflikten - durchgeführt. Es beantwortet ganz aktuell die wichtigsten Fragen zum BREXIT: Wie ist das historische BREXIT-Referendum in Großbritannien abgelaufen, welches sind die Hintergründe des anstehenden EU-Austritts und welche Folgen für Deutschland, Europa und die Weltwirtschaft sind absehbar? Die BREXIT-Entscheidung ist für Europa ein Jahrhundertereignis, das die EU schwächt und die Machtgewichte global verschiebt. Die EU hat an Anziehungskraft verloren, sie ist nicht im Einklang mit dem 21. Jahrhundert, das asiatisch, digital und innovationsstark ist. Es zeigt sich, dass indirekt ein Weg von der Bankenkrise zur Anti-Immigrationswelle und zum EU-Austritt führte. Zudem war das Referendumsergebnis stark verzerrt von einer grob fehlerhaften Infobroschüre der Cameron-Regierung, die den zu erwartenden Einkommensverlust als Effekt eines EU-Austritts verschwieg – mit dieser Information hätte sich eine klare Pro-EU-Mehrheit ergeben. Ein zweites Referendum? EU-Reformen? Nötig ist eine Neo-EU, die besser konstruiert ist. Die 2., erweiterte Auflage mit dem aktuellen Stand der Diskussion zum BREXIT.Table of ContentsDas Referendum.- BREXIT-Effekte.- EU-Entwicklungen.- Stand der Debatte vor der parlamentarischen EU-Austrittsentscheidung.- Szenarien.

Book SynopsisTrade ReviewIf you have a child in high school who will soon be heading off to college, buy this book now! Parents do more than write the checks—directly or indirectly, we are part of our children's college application process, giving advice, helping organize, influencing. Now, at last, Tackling College Admissions helps us help our kids (and ourselves) through the often daunting challenge. Faren Siminoff and Cheryl Paradis are fun, breezy, able experts, they know the territory, and they keep reaching out to us and what we need to know as parents. With up-to-date explanations of the ever-evolving hoops that the college-bound must jump through and short, user-friendly questionnaires to pinpoint our fears, fantasies, and foibles, including unrealistic expectations, Tackling College Admissions is a helpful book for parents—and parents matter! -- Susan Ferraro, freelance journalist and motherFinally! A book with a balanced and helpful approach to college admissions from a parent's perspective. In our times of both high competition and high expectations, it's increasingly vital for parents to stay sane. Tackling College Admissions will help you do that, whether your teen is NAF (Not Always Focused) or AFT (the Always Focused Teen).

Tackling College Admissions is a no-nonsense, practical guide useful to every parent of a college-bound teen. -- Jean Twenge, associate professor of psychology, San Diego State University; author of Generation MeEven if the college application process seems overwhelmingly complicated and strewn with emotional landmines, you don't need to be a 'catastrophizer.'
