Ismer?seink, családtagjaink, kollégáink, a vállalati értékesít?k - egy szóval gyakorlatilag mindenki - egyfolytában hazudik nekünk. Egyikünknek sincs immunitása a ránk zúduló hazugságok ellen, úgyhogy mindannyian a csalás áldozatai vagyunk. A témát egymástól függetlenül vizsgáló kutatók jutottak ugyanarra az eredményre: az átlagembert minden áldott nap k?zel 200 alkalommal traktálják valami valótlansággal. Most végre létrej?tt valami, ami a védelmünkre lehet. A Verj át, ha tudsz! három kül?nb?z? elméletb?l és gyakorlatból - az arckifejezések helyes értelmezéséb?l, a kihallgatási technikák alkalmazásából és a hazugságvizsgáló kutatások átfogó ?sszehasonlításából - hoz létre új diszciplínát, kifejezetten azzal a céllal, hogy megtanítsa az üzleti élet szerepl?it arra, miként lehet a leghatékonyabban felderíteni a csalást, és ezáltal képessé tegye ?ket arra, hogy a rejtett háttér információk birtokában hozhassák meg fontos üzleti d?ntéseiket és vághassanak bele sorsd?nt? tranzakciók lebonyolításába. Ennek az új tudománynak a metódusait használja a gyakorlatban is az amerikai üzleti élet nem egy jól ismert alakja, elszántan arra, hogy végképp kiirtsa a nagy kockázattal járó üzleti tranzakciókból a hazugság elemeit. Hosszú évek teltek el, mire a Verj át, ha tudsz! végre k?zkinccsé tette az igazgatósági irodákban, a vezet?i értekezleteken, az állásinterjúkon, a jogi eljárásokban és az üzleti tárgyalásokon is a korábban csak a hírszerz?i k?r?kben, a rend?r akadémiákon és az egyetemi tanszékek eldugott kutatásaiban jelenlév?, szétszórtan fellelhet? tudást. Mi van a k?nyvben? Tanuljon olyan titkos kommunikációs technikákat, amelyek a k?zelmúltig csak egy maroknyi kutató, kihallgató tiszt és operatív hírszerz? el?tt voltak ismertek! A Verj át, ha tudsz! -ból megtudható, mi az ami ott van minden üzleti megbeszélésen, minden állásinterjú során, minden tárgyaláson az ?n orra el?tt, és amit mégsem vett eddig soha észre: - Az a tíz életveszélyes arckifejezés, amelyet jobb, ha megtanul felfedezni üzleti és társasági kapcsolataiban. - Az a tíz perd?nt? kérdés, amellyel bárkit rábírhat, hogy elmondja ?nnek az igazságot. Megtanulja, miképpen szúrja ki és fojtsa el csírájában egy viszonylag egyszer?, ?tlépcs?s módszer segítségével a szinte minden fontos üzleti tárgyaláson és interjúban el?bukkanó hazugságokat. Megtanul felismerni t?bb tucat olyan arckifejezést és testtartást, amelynek láttán jobb, ha harmadfokú készültségbe helyezi magát. Füle megtanulja, miképpen ismerheti fel azokat a szófordulatokat és frázisokat, amelyek beszédes jeleib?l megkül?nb?ztethet? a csalárd beszéd az igazmondástól. Végül megtudja azt is, miképpen vegye k?rül magát olyan megbízható tanácsadókkal, akik garantálhatják ?nnek a sikert.

As scandal and the aftershocks of the crash rock the financial world, former Wall Street trader John Coates investigates why our financiers are driven to take risks. Now shortlisted for the 2012 Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award and the Wellcome Trust Book Prize, this startling and unconventional book sees neuroscientist and former Wall Street trader John Coates explain something we have long suspected: that we think with our body as well as our brain. And this only intensifies when we take risks; at work, in sport and on the financial markets. Making and losing money provokes an overwhelming biological response, and this can alter the way we behave. Could this bodily turmoil lead to the kind of irrational behaviour that so regularly upsets the global economy? In a series of groundbreaking experiments, Coates has shown that under the pressure of risk our biology transforms us into different people. Traders and investors are especially prone, becoming revved-up and testosterone-driven when on a winning streak, and tentative and risk-averse when cowering from losses. Revealing the biology of bubbles and crashes, The Hour Between Dog and Wolf sheds new and surprising light on issues that affect us all.

From New York Times bestselling financial guru Julie Stav comes The Money in You!, a spot-on primer that pinpoints your financial personality, thus helping you to overcome the self-imposed hurdles that keep you from living the rich life of your dreams. Socrates' guiding rule was "Know thyself." These words are of eternal significance, and, arguably, no better advice has ever been given to man or woman. Yet, what would Socrates have said if he had to dispense practical financial advice in today's hyper-spending, debt-saturated climateWith the myriad pressures involved in building wealth, instilling practical spending habits in ourselves and our kids, and ultimately establishing a life in which money is abundant and our fiscal future secure, undoubtedly he would tell us, "Know thy financial self." In The Money In You!, Julie Stav introduces us to five different financial personality types. According to Julie, it is our financial nature—the way we handle money matters—that forecasts our financial future. Julie shows readers that no amount of data or market expertise trumps the fundamental truth we all forget—that building wealth, attaining security, and establishing personal success can only be achieved when we recognize our strengths and weaknesses. If we are in touch with our motivations, our desires, and our innate tendencies, we can shed the guilt of making the same mistakes over and over; we can halt the vicious cycle of overspending, debt, and ruined relationships. It is then that we are able to restructure our lives to fit our individual goals, whether it's learning to play the stock market or just saving for shoes. Finally, Julie shows us how to establish healthy relationships with the people who are affected by our financial decisions, and who affect us with theirs. Endlessly entertaining, this book will initiate feisty discussions over just who we are and how we interact with others. Julie Stav will both delight and inform.
