Or can you see the potential for a more stimulating future as a result of having so much extra time? Many of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement.

Drawing on the unique pairing of their experience in psychology and economics, Lynda Gratton and Andrew J. Scott offer a broad-ranging analysis as well as a raft of solutions, showing how to rethink your finances, your education, your career and your relationships and create a fulfilling 100-year life. · How can you fashion a career and life path that defines you and your values and creates a shifting balance between work and leisure? · What are the most effective ways of boosting your physical and mental health over a longer and more dynamic lifespan? · How can you make the most of your intangible assets – such as family and friends – as you build a productive, longer life? · In a multiple-stage life how can you learn to make the transitions that will be so crucial and experiment with new ways of living, working and learning? Shortlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award and featuring a new preface, The 100-Year Life is a wake-up call that describes what to expect and considers the choices and options that you will face.

In the first half of this century, a talented and charismatic leadership restructured the American Jewish community to meet the demands and opportunities of a pluralistic, secular society. The work of this generation of titans still guides the current modes of American Jewish life. The last of these giants was the influential reformer Stephen S. Wise--a progenitor of American Zionism, creator of the American and World Jewish Congresses, and founder of the Jewish Institute of Religion. As rabbi of the Free Synagogue, Wise led the fight for a living Judaism responsive to social problems. This engrossing study is more than a chronicle of an ethnic community's adjustment to a host society. Thanks to Melvin Urofsky's painstaking research, it succeeds in revealing the true story behind a legendary and controversial figure in American Jewish history.

Numerology, simply put, is the application of key words, characteristics, attributes, thoughts and phrases that are associated to a specific number and letter of the alphabet. This association becomes a formula that is applied to any name, birth date, or event. The number and letter formula can define personality traits and characteristics that an individual may portray throughout their life. This is called ones numerology signature. The numerology formula can also be applied to important dates, addresses, phone numbers, and other important events in ones life to determine the compatibility of the event to ones personal numerology signature. This formula can also be applied to compare the compatibility between individuals. When applying the formula, it is easy to see who will show leadership traits in work group teams, or who will take control or be submissive when interacting with others. Numerology can also be applied to employment, personal, and romantic situations. It can be used as an insightful tool when blending families where children are concerned. The application of numerology in life is endless and provides insightful peeks into potential areas of life that are important to you. For example, when planning a future event, such as choosing a date for a wedding, the chosen date defines the numerology signature of the event and can have a lasting effect upon the marriage union. When applying numerology formulas to birth dates and life events, specific cycles emerge. These cycles can be identified and formulas applied to them that can offer valuable insights that last for the entire cycle of time. The knowledge within this book is everything you will ever need to know to become an expert at numerology!

Worldwide interest in the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards has never been higher, and the New York Convention of 1958, currently adhered to by 159 States including the major trading nations, remains the most successful treaty in this area of commercial law. This incomparable book, marking the Convention’s 60th anniversary, provides a fully updated analysis of the Convention’s application from international, comparative, and national perspectives. Drawing on a global conference held in Seville in April 2018 that was actively supported by UNCITRAL, the book’s 27 chapters, by highly qualified international practitioners and academics from different jurisdictions, address the subject with critical eyes, well aware of current developments and future challenges in the field of arbitration.

Ample reference is made throughout to leading cases and practice.
