The Inevitable Millionaires

Pages : 308
Book Description
Middle-aged brothers Steven and George Henry Underwood find themselves in receipt of a large inheritance from their long-deceased father. A sizeable sum, the fortune comes with a condition – that the brothers must spend a large amount of the money within a month. A break from his usual spy thrillers, this is a gentle and humorous tale from author E. Phillips Oppenheim. E. Phillips Oppenheim (1866-1946) was a hugely prolific and highly popular British author of novels and short stories. Born in Tottenham, London, Oppenheim left school as a teenager and worked for his leather-merchant father for 20 years prior to launching his literary career. Oppenheim published five novels under the pseudonym ‘Anthony Partridge’ before establishing his reputation as a writer under his own name. An internationally successful author, Oppenheim’s stories revolved mainly around glamourous characters, luxurious settings, and themes of espionage, suspense, and crime. He is widely regarded as one of the earliest pioneers of the thriller and spy-fiction genre as it is recognised today. Oppenheim’s incredible literary success meant that his own life soon began to mirror that of his opulent characters. He held lavish, Gatsby-style parties at his French Villa and was rumoured to have had frequent love affairs aboard his luxury yacht. Oppenheim’s success earned him the cover of Time magazine in 1927. Some of his most well-known novels include ‘The Great Impersonation’, ‘The Long Arm of Mannister’ and ‘The Moving Finger’.

The Inevitable Party
Author: Seth E. MasketPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019022083X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
Seth Masket's The Inevitable Party is a study of anti-party reforms and why they fail. Numerous reform movements over the past century have designated parties as the enemy of democracy, and they have found a willing ally in the American people in their efforts to rein in and occasionally root out parties. Masket investigates several of these anti-party reform efforts - from open primaries to campaign finance restrictions to nonpartisan legislatures - using legislative roll call votes, campaign donations patterns, and extensive interviews with local political elites. These cases each demonstrate parties adapting to, and sometimes thriving amidst, reforms designed to weaken or destroy them. The reason for these reforms' failures, the book argues, is that they proceed from an incorrect conception of just what a party is. Parties are not rigid structures that can be wished or legislated away; they are networks of creative and adaptive policy demanders who use their influence to determine just what sorts of people get nominated for office. Even while these reforms tend to fail, however, they impose considerable costs on society, usually reducing transparency and accountability in politics and government.

Book Description
As a teen, I bet you have been told many times or, in your subconscious mind, you have the idea that having too much money is evil or bad. Then again, you might have heard people talk about how only the mean and bad guys have all the money or that money is not easy to come by. Have you, however, wondered why most of the grown-ups you know have become given-ups? Have you noticed the frustrations that most adults are going through living average lives? Truth is, your own mindset can make or break you. The society and the environment in which we find ourselves have succeeded in making the majority of people think there is barely enough and have programmed people to live in mediocrity. As a young person, are you prepared to tow this line or are you prepared to change your mindset, to shift your consciousness and awareness to abundance? This book throws light on how most minds are untapped and exposes the hidden capabilities of the young millionaire’s mind. Do you want to set your mental frequency to abundance? It is your rightful position in life. “Millionaires are made, not born” (Laura Lyseight). Once you start thinking right at this stage in your life, the rest will be history because you will surely make your millions and even billions. “You are only young once and if you work it right, once is enough” (Joe E. Lewis).
