世界股份公司史:“病理”与“战争”的500年
¥39.99
在产业革命的时代背景下,股份公司这一集资本筹措与生产为一体的经营系统发挥着巨大作用,为人类文明的发展与经济的增长做出了巨大贡献。但1929年的世界经济大危机、2008年的雷曼危机等都告诉人们,支撑我们这个世界的经济系统并非坚如磐石,它既有益于改善人们的生活,同时也会让人们陷无妄之灾。 本书所论述的股份公司是指以所有权与经营权分离,以股东拥有决定权为前提,公售股的公司或其早期形态的法人。全书共分为两大部分共十二个章节,极力再现了股份公司诞生的那个时代,发掘其产生的“动因”,探讨其所内含的“病理”。人们习惯性地在公司工作,极其自然地为公司“效忠”,但大概不知道为什么。作者对此行了分析。作者也着意探寻了,股份公司在未来是否仍能作为经济发展的原动力继续发挥作用,是否会出现某种新的要素促使股份公司发生质的改变。

Tales of Trail and Town
¥8.09
Collection of western stories, including: The Ancestors of Peter Atherly, Two Americans, The Judgment of Bolinas Plain, The Strange Experience of Alkali Dick, A Night on the Divide, The Youngest Prospector in Calaveras, and A Tale of Three Truants. According to Wikipedia: "Bret Harte (August 25, 1836 – May 6, 1902) was an American author and poet, best remembered for his accounts of pioneering life in California. He was born in Albany, New York. ... He moved to California in 1853, later working there in a number of capacities, including miner, teacher, messenger, and journalist. He spent part of his life in the northern California coast town now known as Arcata, then just a mining camp on Humboldt Bay. His first literary efforts, including poetry and prose, appeared in The Californian, an early literary journal edited by Charles Henry Webb. In 1868 he became editor of The Overland Monthly, another new literary magazine, but this one more in tune with the pioneering spirit of excitement in California. His story, "The Luck of Roaring Camp," appeared in the magazine's second edition, propelling Harte to nationwide fame... Determined to pursue his literary career, in 1871 he and his family traveled back East, to New York and eventually to Boston, where he contracted with the publisher of The Atlantic Monthly for an annual salary of $10,000, "an unprecedented sum at the time." His popularity waned, however, and by the end of 1872 he was without a publishing contract and increasingly desperate. He spent the next few years struggling to publish new work (or republish old), delivering lectures about the gold rush, and even selling an advertising jingle to a soap company. In 1878 Harte was appointed to the position of United States Consul in the town of Krefeld, Germany and then to Glasgow in 1880. In 1885 he settled in London. During the thirty years he spent in Europe, he never abandoned writing, and maintained a prodigious output of stories that retained the freshness of his earlier work. He died in England in 1902 of throat cancer and is buried at Frimley."
