Willem Middelkoop and The Big Reset is right in the thick of the action! Great book; awesome statistical reference to go along with the analysis. - James Rickards on the first edition. Rickards is the author of The Death of Money and Currency Wars, a National Bestseller. A system reset seems imminent. The world's financial system will need to find a new anchor before the year 2020. Since the beginning of the credit crisis, the US realized the dollar will lose its role as the world's reserve currency, and has been planning for a monetary reset. According to Willem Middelkoop, this reset will be designed to keep the US in the driver's seat, allowing the new monetary system to include significant roles for other currencies such as the euro and China's renminbi. PREPARE FOR THE COMING RESET In all likelihood gold will be re-introduced as one of the pillars of this next phase in the global financial system. The prediction is that gold could be revalued at $ 7,000 per troy ounce. By looking past the American 'smokescreen' surrounding gold and the dollar long ago, China and Russia have been accumulating massive amounts of gold reserves, positioning themselves for a more prominent role in the future to come. The reset will come as a shock to many. The Big Reset will help everyone who wants to be fully prepared. This fully revised edition of Middelkoop's book takes into account developments since its original publication, which have only strengthened the case for the coming return of gold.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/daa5a105/the-big-reset-revised-edition-willem-middelkoop-9789462980273.jpg|9789462980273|The Big Reset Revised Edition : Paperback : Amsterdam University Press : 9789462980273 : 30 Nov 2015 : Describes the history and characteristics of our current financial system by showing the true value and background of money and the benefits of inve ...|new|1|1|52|19.95|0|GBP|Willem Middelkoop|Amsterdam University Press|30 Nov 2015|Popular economics 9789462986565|The Structures of the Film Experience by Jean-Pierre Meunier|56.37|https://wordery.com/the-structures-of-the-film-experience-by-jean-pierre-meunier-julian-hanich-9789462986565|- first translation of a hardly known, but important film studies publication from 1969 - particularly insightful for studies on documentary film and home movies - illuminating film phenomenological description of various viewer engagements with moving images For the first time this volume makes Jean-Pierre Meunier's insightful thoughts on the film experience available for an English-speaking readership.

Coined in the late 1980s, the name refers mainly to the pioneer group of students of the late Bernd Becher, who in 1976 became the first professor for creative photography at a German arts academy. His students included Andreas Gursky, Candida Höfer, Axel Hütte, Thomas Ruff, and Thomas Struth, all of them today internationally acclaimed artists in their own right. Whereas ?Düsseldorf School' initially was used as a handy term for a group of artists with the same university's background, it quickly turned into a powerful brand name both in critical and commercial contexts. Despite its welcomed impact on the art scene, the members of the ?School' felt rather ambiguous about their perception as a group which turned them into stars but simultaneously risked levelling individual profiles and differences. What exactly connects and distinguishes them aesthetically is for the first time thoroughly explored in Maren Polte's pioneering study.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/fb33231e/a-class-of-their-own-maren-polte-9789462701045.jpg|9789462701045|A Class of Their Own : Paperback : Leuven University Press : 9789462701045 : 22 Jun 2017 : The 'Düsseldorf School' has become a household name in the art world for one of the most successful and influential strains of modern photography.

From an early age, we are taught to master our urinary urges and to use decent words for this most necessary physiological activity. This paradox has not gone unnoticed by artists through the ages. For this Relief, Much Thanks! Peeing in Art is a journey through time and space, stopping along the way to look at many different art forms. The reader-viewer will see how peeing figures - men and women, young and old, human and angelic - have been depicted over the centuries. You will be amazed to discover how often, even in famous works of art, you can find a man quietly peeing in a corner or a putto who is 'irrigating' some grassy field. A detail you will never have seen before, but one that you will never forget when confronted with those same art works in future! Artists have portrayed pee-ers in a variety of different ways and for a variety of different reasons: serious, frivolous, humorous, to make a protest, to make a statement... Whatever their purpose, these works of art always intrigue, not least because of their secret messages and symbolic references, which sometimes can only be unravelled by an expert - like the author of this book. The extensive background information about the artists and their work also gives interesting insights into the often complex origins of the different art forms. In short, a fascinating voyage of discovery awaits you!|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/0f6875d9/for-this-relief-much-thanks--johan-mattelaer-9789462987326.jpg|9789462987326|For this Relief, Much Thanks ... : Hardback : Amsterdam University Press : 9789462987326 : 05 Mar 2018 : Even though peeing is something we all do several times a day, it is still a taboo subject.

Focusing on the difficulty of Kiev's transition from socialism to market democracy, this book demonstrates how Ukraine reached this turbulent point. Roman Adrian Cybriwsky delves deeply into the changing social geography of the city, recent urban development, and critical problems such as official corruption, inequality, sex tourism, and the heedless destruction of the city's historical architecture - all difficulties that have contributed incrementally to Ukrainian citizens' anger against their government.

Cities have been, and they continue to be, intensely photographed under a wide variety of forms, materialities, intentions and genres. This volume examines how a city can be molded through the particularities of a photographic book, suggesting how urban portraits configure an overlooked, yet quite specific, photo-textual practice. Ranging from early photography to contemporary works, Paper Cities gathers thought-provoking case studies from several international contexts, providing new insights into art, material culture, history, heritage, and memory, while simultaneously illuminating the debate on cities, photographs, and books.Contributors: Chris Balaschak (Flagler College), Johanna M.

Since 2010, however, the EU has faced multiple crises, which have rocked its foundations and deeply challenged the narrative of 'the end of the history of integration'. The military crisis in eastern Ukraine and the refugee crisis call for a joint approach, but in practice reveal the difficulty of maintaining even the appearance of European solidarity and political unanimity. The financial and socio-economic crisis in southern Europe and Brexit present the EU with the latest set of challenges. If seventy years of European integration have taught us anything, it is that fundamental crises as well as moments of rapid institutional change form integral parts of its history. The Unfinished History of European Integration presents the reader with historical and theoretical knowledge on which well-founded judgements can be based.This textbook on European integration history has been written as a student textbook for a bachelor's or master's programme in European integration history, as a manual for the analysis of EU sources and, finally, as an information resource for a bachelor's or master's thesis.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/044033a1/the-unfinished-history-of-european-integration-wim-van-meurs-9789462988149.jpg|9789462988149|The Unfinished History of European Integration : Paperback : Amsterdam University Press : 9789462988149 : 15 Feb 2018 : This textbook on European integration history has been written as a student textbook for a bachelor's or master's programme in Euro ...|new|1|1|58|24.99|0|GBP|Wim van Meurs|Amsterdam University Press|15 Feb 2018|European history 9789462700703|The Struggle with Leviathan|36.99|https://wordery.com/the-struggle-with-leviathan-emiel-lamberts-9789462700703|The opposition to the omnipotence of the state had a significant impact on the political organization of European society.
