Download or read book Arkansas Mischief written by Jim McDougal and published by Holt Paperbacks. This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until his recent death in federal prison, Jim McDougal was the irrepressible ghost of the Clintons' Arkansas past. As Bill Clinton's political and business mentor, McDougal - with his knowledge of embarrassing real estate and banking deals, bribes, and obstructions of justice - has long haunted the White House. Jim McDougal's vivid self-portrait, completed only days before his death and coauthored by veteran journalist Curtis Wilkie, takes on the rich particularity of character and plot to reveal the hidden intersections of politics and special interests in Arkansas and the betrayals that followed. It is the story of how ambitious men and women climbed out of rural obscurity and "how friendships break down and lives are ruined."

Download or read book Money Mischief written by Milton Friedman and published by HMH. This book was released on 1994-03-31 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nobel Prize–winning economist explains how value is created, and how that affects everything from your paycheck to global markets. In this “lively, enlightening introduction to monetary history” (Kirkus Reviews), one of the leading figures of the Chicago school of economics that rejected the theories of John Maynard Keynes offers a journey through history to illustrate the importance of understanding monetary economics, and how monetary theory can ignite or deepen inflation. With anecdotes revealing the far-reaching consequences of seemingly minor events—for example, how two obscure Scottish chemists destroyed the presidential prospects of William Jennings Bryan, and how FDR’s domestic politics helped communism triumph in China—as well as plain-English explanations of what the monetary system in the United States means for your personal finances and for everyone from the small business owner on Main Street to the banker on Wall Street, Money Mischief is an enlightening read from the author of Capitalism and Freedom and Free to Choose, who was called “the most influential economist of the second half of the twentieth century” by the Economist.
Book Synopsis Statesmen and Mischief Makers: by : Scott Crass
Download or read book Statesmen and Mischief Makers: written by Scott Crass and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, when sweeping policy changes or legislation of indelible consequence are signed into law, Presidents receive the credit. There is a good reason for that. Without the Chief Executive putting his pen to paper, these advancements would have nary a chance of becoming reality. In most cases, though, a President’s signature is simply the culmination of a long fight to make an idea or actual proposal a reality. In fact, quite often it is members of Congress who nurture proposals from inception to the President’s desk. Like a train leaving its first station, the legislative process often starts with a handful of people on board until slowly, a few more passengers hop on at each stop and before long, there is a full car with people standing in the aisles. Often times, a bill becoming a law is no different.

Download or read book Active Measures written by Thomas Rid and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an age of subterfuge. Spy agencies pour vast resources into hacking, leaking, and forging data, often with the goal of weakening the very foundation of liberal democracy: trust in facts. Thomas Rid, a renowned expert on technology and national security, was one of the first to sound the alarm. Even before the 2016 election, he warned that Russian military intelligence was 'carefully planning and timing a high-stakes political campaign' to disrupt the democratic process. But as crafty as such so-called active measures have become, they are not new. In this astonishing journey through a century of secret psychological war, Rid reveals for the first time some of history's most significant operations - many of them nearly beyond belief. A White Russian ploy backfires and brings down a New York police commissioner; a KGB-engineered, anti-Semitic hate campaign creeps back across the Berlin Wall; the CIA backs a fake publishing empire, run by a former Wehrmacht U-boat commander that produces Germany's best jazz magazine.

Book Synopsis Statesmen and Mischief Makers by : Scott Crass
Download or read book Statesmen and Mischief Makers written by Scott Crass and published by Xlibris Us. This book was released on 2015-09-26 with total page 1056 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History has produced many individuals who have impacted the times. Some are well known, others barely recognized. My book follows two paths. One examines officeholders who served between 1960 and 1988, famous or obscure, whose actions gave way to an even more famous person's career. Others are Governors credited with shaping the modern developments of their home states. A number of my subjects are as scrupulous as can be. Others got sidelined by scandals one can't even make up. As for the rest. Well, let's just say they have a great story that few know, but deserve to be told. My book shares more than 150 stories of politicians, elections, and the environment of the period. Each of my 150 subjects is accompanied by a tidbit/anomaly that will enlighten all. Many are unsung outside their home states. Hopefully, my book will change that.
