Download or read book God and Mammon written by Lance Morrow and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning essayist Lance Morrow writes about the partnership of God and Mammon in the New World—about the ways in which Americans have made money and lost money, and about how they have thought and obsessed about this peculiarly American subject. Fascinated by the tracings of theology in the ways of American money Morrow sees a reconciliation of God and Mammon in the working out of the American Dream. This sharp-eyed essay reflects upon American money in a series of individual life stories, including his own. Morrow writes about what he calls “the emotions of money,” which he follows from the catastrophe of the Great Depression to the era of Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, and Donald Trump. He considers money’s dual character—functioning both as a hard, substantial reality and as a highly subjective force and shape-shifter, a sort of dream. Is money the root of all evil? Or is it the source of much good? Americans have struggled with the problem of how to square the country’s money and power with its aspiration to virtue. Morrow pursues these themes as they unfold in the lives of Americans both famous and obscure: Here is Thomas Jefferson, the luminous Founder who died broke, his fortune in ruin, his estate and slaves at Monticello to be sold to pay his debts. Here are the Brown brothers of Providence, Rhode Island, members of the family that founded Brown University. John Brown was in the slave trade, while his brother Moses was an ardent abolitionist. With race in America a powerful subtheme throughout the book, Morrow considers Booker T. Washington, who, with a cunning that sometimes went unappreciated among his own people, recognized money as the key to full American citizenship. God and Mammon is a masterly weaving of America’s money myths, from the nation’s beginnings to the present.
Download or read book Jump written by Larry Miller and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-01-18 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most successful Black businessmen in the country, who has led Nike’s Jordan Brand from a $200M sneaker company to a $4B global apparel juggernaut, tells the remarkable story of his rise from gangland violence to the pinnacles of international business. Jump tells Larry Miller’s journey from the violent streets of West Philly in the 1960s to the highest echelons of American sports and industry. Miller wound up in jail more than once, especially as a teenager. But he immersed himself in the educational opportunities, eventually took advantage of a Pennsylvania state education-release program offered to incarcerated people, and was able to graduate with honors from Temple University. When revealing his gangland past caused him to lose his first major job opportunity, Miller vowed to keep it a secret. He climbed the corporate ladder with a number of companies such as Kraft Foods, Campbell’s Soup, and Jantzen, until Nike hired him to run its domestic apparel operations. Around the time of Michael Jordan’s basketball retirement, Nike Chairman Phil Knight made Larry Miller president of the newly formed Jordan Brand. In 2007 Paul Allen convinced Miller to jump to the NBA to become president of the Portland Trailblazers, one of the first African-Americans to lead a professional sports team, before returning to Jordan Brand in 2012. All along, Miller lived two lives: the secret of his violent past haunted him, invading his days with migraines and his sleep with nightmares of getting hauled back to jail. More than a rags-to-riches story, Jump is also a passionate appeal for criminal justice reform and expanded educational opportunities for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people across the United States. Drawing on his powerful personal story, as well as his vast and well-connected network, Miller plans to use Jump as a launching point to help expand such opportunities and to provide an aspirational journey for those who need hope.
Download or read book Rescue Squad written by Larry Ferazani and published by Author House. This book was released on 2006-07-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publishers Weekly 10/14/74 Rescue Squad Larry Ferazani, MORROW An engrossing report of an unusual firefighting unit working in the shadow of Harvard, written by a man who has a love-hate relationship with his job. More philosophical than Dennis Smith in his best seller “Report from Engine Company 82,” Ferazani would agree with Smith that firefighting is the most misunderstood and underrated job in the country. The Cambridge Rescue truck packs the usual fire gear but it is also stocked with sophisticated medical equipment. Besides answering fire alarms, it is called upon to assist victims of auto accidents drug users, attempted suicides and to quell Harvard Yard riots. The squad has freed a pregnant woman from a stalled elevator and given advice on a sick cat. Staffed by volunteers from the fire department, it takes dangerous and often repugnant tasks in its stride. Ferazani believes that such units set up on a national scale would be invaluable. While reporting his many exciting experiences he tells how the job affects his private life. Boston Globe by Patrick McGilligan In the middle of the night,” he writes, “I still wonder sometimes if I am doing the right thing. To reach out, to help people, to find someone on the verge of death and be able to bring him back-for me, that’s a miracle. But how often can you come face to face with the endless fact of pain and death without losing courage in life. “That his book even considers such delicate questions, aside from its documentary capacity’s a tribute to its worth as a minor sketch of Americana.” Dennis Smith Rescue Squad is a clear, gripping account about a group of extraordinary men who save lives as fireman and minister to the injured as paramedics. It is at times funny, at times sad, but always interesting and beautifully told.

Oracle Corporation, of which he is founder and CEO, is the fastest-growing software database company in the world, and the darling of technology investors. If you withdraw cash from an ATM, make an airline reservation, hook up your TV to the Internet, then you're using Oracle. All of this makes Ellison the man investors, techies, and people-in-the-know want to know more about. The ultimate self-made man, Ellison began Oracle with a $1,200 investment and doubled its sales in eleven of its first twelve years. But he's a ruthless businessman who has used misdirection and half-truths to create one of the great high-tech success stories. He is also a daredevil sportsman with a 78-foot yacht, a number of fast jets, and beautiful women on his arm. If Gates is the nerd-King of the Valley, Ellison is its Warren Beatty. Mike Wilson has interviewed more than a hundred of Ellison's friends and enemies as well as Ellison himself to create an entertaining and provocative portrait of this enigmatic and visionary businessman.
