This book is written for the future accountants. The author hopes that students at an early age hear about accounting and can see themselves.

This book portrays young children's favorite "role models," such as doctors, accountants, lawyers, teachers, firefighters, nurses, pastors, astronauts, veterinarians, airline pilots, police officers, judges, postal carriers, computer engineers, news reporters, and singers. An advantage for children today is, regardless of what their future careers may pay, there are various options open to them more than ever before. Children still can grow up to be anything they want. They will obtain knowledge about each role model, will be more inquisitive and excited about learning more, these options will have a profound effect on making their career choices, and will most likely, compel them to pursue a very rewarding profession.

"We were prompted to write this book based on three recurring questions from our various audiences, who range from undergraduates to executive MBA students, from entry-level workers to seasoned professionals, and from the general public to the C-suites of organizations"--

Author of cult classics The Pumpkin Plan and The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur offers a simple, counterintuitive cash management solution that will help small businesses break out of the doom spiral and achieve instant profitability. Conventional accounting uses the logical (albeit, flawed) formula: Sales - Expenses = Profit. The problem is, businesses are run by humans, and humans aren't always logical. Serial entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz has developed a behavioral approach to accounting to flip the formula: Sales - Profit = Expenses. Just as the most effective weight loss strategy is to limit portions by using smaller plates, Michalowicz shows that by taking profit first and apportioning only what remains for expenses, entrepreneurs will transform their businesses from cash-eating monsters to profitable cash cows. Using Michalowicz's Profit First system, readers will learn that: · Following 4 simple principles can simplify accounting and make it easier to manage a profitable business by looking at bank account balances. · A small, profitable business can be worth much more than a large business surviving on its top line. · Businesses that attain early and sustained profitability have a better shot at achieving long-term growth. With dozens of case studies, practical, step-by-step advice, and his signature sense of humor, Michalowicz has the game-changing roadmap for any entrepreneur to make money they always dreamed of.

Dr. Ray Vander Weele embarks on a voyage of discovery and celebrates life’s joys, challenges, and unexpected turns in this memoir. He shares the grief of losing a child and the anguish of saying goodbye to a wife claimed by Alzheimer’s—as well as the thrill of opening himself up to a new love and a new beginning later in life. He writes about the awkwardness of adolescence, living through the Great Depression, World War II, the Korean War, and Vietnam; and surviving scarlet fever, heart surgery and cancer—and how avoiding polio and covid-19 helped create a new appreciation for life. Some of what he recalls were mountains: obstacles that, in retrospect, it is hard to believe he overcame. Other challenges were boulders or even pebbles—although it was not always clear at the time which was which. Join the author as he takes stock of the past and prompts you to examine how you’ve lived your life ... and what you might do to enhance the time you have left.

The situation in Zimbabwe represents one of the worst humanitarian emergencies today. This book asks the question: How did a country with so much promise — a stellar education system, a growing middle class, a sophisticated economic infrastructure, a liberal constitution, an independent judiciary, and many of the trappings of Western democracy — go so wrong? In their own words, Zimbabweans recount their experiences of losing their homes, land, livelihoods, and families as a direct result of political violence. They describe being tortured in detention, firebombed at work, or beaten up or raped to “punish” votes for the opposition. Those forced to flee to neighboring countries recount their escapes: cutting through fences, swimming across crocodile-infested rivers, and entrusting themselves to human smugglers. This book includes Zimbabweans of every age, class, and political conviction, from farm laborers to academics, doctors to artists, opposition leaders to ordinary Zimbabweans; men and women simply trying to survive as a once-thriving nation heads for collapse.
