Why do stock and housing markets sometimes experience amazing booms followed by massive busts and why is this happening more and more frequently? In order to answer these questions, William Quinn and John D. Turner take us on a riveting ride through the history of financial bubbles, visiting, among other places, Paris and London in 1720, Latin America in the 1820s, Melbourne in the 1880s, New York in the 1920s, Tokyo in the 1980s, Silicon Valley in the 1990s and Shanghai in the 2000s. As they do so, they help us understand why bubbles happen, and why some have catastrophic economic, social and political consequences whilst others have actually benefited society. They reveal that bubbles start when investors and speculators react to new technology or political initiatives, showing that our ability to predict future bubbles will ultimately come down to being able to predict these sparks.

Both a literary magazine and a chronicle of girl culture, Bust was born in 1993. With contributors who are funny, fierce, and too smart to be anything but feminist, Bust is the original grrrl zine, with a base of loyal female fans--all those women who know that Glamour is garbage, Vogue is vapid, and Cosmo is clueless.The Bust Guide to the New Girl Order contains brand new, funny, sharp, trenchant essays along with some of the best writings from the magazine: Courtney Love's (unsolicited) piece on Bad Girls; the already immortal "Dont's For Boys"; an interview with girl-hero Judy Blume; and lots of other shocking, titillating, truthful articles. A kind of Our Bodies, Ourselves for Generation XX, The Bust Guide to the New Girl Order is destined to become required reading for today's hip urban girl and her admirers.

Kayden Matthews messed up. Again. But this time, it's huge. He's out of professional football. He's out of his family. He's out of money. The party's over. He's a bust. The only thing he has going for him is that he still has his arm. In other words, he can still play-if any team would have him. But if they look at his past behavior, the wild times that got him into this current situation? Chances are nil that he'll ever get back on a field. Yeah, done. And what else is there in life besides football and the party that went along with it? Well, he does have one other thing. That girl he met-Karol? Kristina? No, Kylie! That weird woman who lives with her old dog and treats it like another human. Somehow, and before he really knows it, they do get to be friends. Somehow, she seems to like him, no matter if he is finished in football, washed up, alone. Lonely. Well, maybe Kylie is, too. Of course, she has her dog, and she doesn't really need anyone else-that's what she keeps saying, anyway. She's looking for adventure and she's never going to stay long in one place, no matter how good it is. Circumstances are pulling her onwards, and she has to go, no matter what she's leaving behind. Kayden and Kylie are nothing alike. In fact, they're so opposite, they shouldn't get along at all. But there is something between them-and that something is leading to love and an ending neither of them expected!
