Newton's Principia for the Common Reader
Representing a decade's work from one of the world's most distinguished physicists, this major publication is, as far as is known, the first comprehensive analysis of Newton's Principia without recourse to secondary sources. Chandrasekhar analyses some 150 propositions which form a direct chain leading to Newton's formulation of his universal law of gravitation. In case, Newton's proofs are arranged in a linear sequence of equations and arguments, avoiding the need to unravel the necessarily convoluted style of Newton's connected prose. In almost every case, a modern version of the proofs is given to bring into sharp focus the beauty, clarity, and breathtaking economy of Newton's methods. This book will stimulate great interest and debate among the scientific community, illuminating the brilliance of Newton's work under the steady gaze of Chandrasekhar's rare perception. - Category: Books/Reading - Misc. - New Item: 461662890

Romanticism
The years 1830-90 were the 'Romantic period' in music par excelence. It was in March 1830 that Goethe complained that 'everybody talks now about Classicism and Romanticism--which no one thought of fifty years ago', and the ensuing decade saw the coming to maturity of the first generation of Romantic composers--Berlioz, Chopin, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Wagner, and Verdi. As for the end of the period, in 1890 Wagner, Liszt, and Cesar Franck had recently died, while the next few years were to witness the deaths of Brahms and Bruckner and the final masterpieces of Verdi and Tchaikovsky. - Category: Books/Reading - Misc. - New Item: 461717683

The Financial Numbers Game Detecting Creative Accounting Practices
Praise for The Financial Numbers Game 'So much for the notion ‘those who can, do–those who can’t, tevery.’ Mulford and Comiskey function successfully both as college professors and real-world financial mercenaries. These guys know their balance sheets. The Financial Numbers Game should serve as a survival manual for both serious individual investors and industry pros who study and act upon the interpretation of financial statements. This unique blend of battle-earned scholarship and quality writing is a must-read/must-have reference for serious financial statement analysis.' —Bob Acker, Editor/Publisher, The Acker Letter 'Wall Street’s unforgiving attention to quarterly earnings presents ever increasing pressure on CFOs to manage earnings and expectations. The Financial Numbers Game provides a clear explanation of the ways in which management can stretch, bend, and break accounting rules to revery the desired bottom line. This arms the serious investor or financial analyst with the healthy skepticism required to drive beyond reported results to a clear understanding of a firm’s true performance.' —Mark Hurley, Managing Director, Training and Development, Global Corporate and Investment Banking, Bank of America 'After reading The Financial Numbers Game, I feel as though I’ve taken a master’s level course in financial statement analysis. Mulford and Comiskey’s latest book should be required reading for anyone who is serious about fundamentally analyzing stocks.' —Harry Domash, San Francisco Chronicle investing columnist and investment newsletter publisher - Category: Books/Reading - Misc. - New Item: 461115174
