Описание: "One could imagine it becoming required reading on Wall Street."--New York Times Book Review
So, you've earned a seat at the table. What happens next?
We all face hard decisions every day and the choices we make, and how others perceive them, can be life-changing. There are countless books on how to make those tough calls, but How Women Decide is the first to examine a much overlooked truth: men and women approach decisions differently, and often in surprising ways. Stress? It makes women more focused. Confidence? Caution can lead to stronger decisions. And despite popular misconceptions, women are just as decisive as men--though they may pay for it. Pulling from the latest science on decision-making, as well as lively stories of real women and their experiences, cognitive scientist Therese Huston teaches us how we can best shape our habits, perceptions, and strategies, not just to make the most of our own opportunities, but to reshape the culture and bring out the best decisions--regardless of who's making them.
"I thought I had read everything I needed to read on gender differences, but, as a CEO, this book showed me a new and critically important area in which we need to be very aware of our biases and take the steps Huston recommends to address them."--Anne-Marie Slaughter, author of Unfinished Business: Women Men Work Family and president and CEO of New America

Описание: Introducing Harley-riding LAPD Detective Ben Kaye It's said that a picture is worth a thousand wordsThis one could be worth a half-billion dollars
A brazen art theft in 1937 Paris sets in motion a series of events that culminate in present-day Sun Valley, Idaho.On leave pending the outcome of an excessive force complaint, LAPD Detective Ben Kaye rounds a curve on a remote Idaho mountain highway just as a traffic accident inexplicably erupts into a multiple homicide.
A disillusioned Kaye wants only to be a good witness and be on his way, go home and quit his job. But the local cops tell him not to leave town.
Then he discovers that he and the only other survivor of the incident share a link dating back to his Marine Corps days. He reluctantly agrees to stick around and help find the shooter.
Kaye forms a loose alliance with the local Sheriff's investigator put in charge of the case. Bonded by mutual distrust, he and soon-to-retire Captain Roger Halberstam attack the mystery, eventually identifying a possible suspect with terrorist connections.
When Kaye connects their suspect to a wealthy Idaho business magnate, DHS suddenly shows up and tells Kaye to butt out or go to jail.
Does he listen?Not Ben Kaye. That just makes his fire to find out what's going on burn even hotter.
The two very different lawmen slowly build enough mutual respect to unravel a knot of co-conspirators, all with different motives and goals, that stretches from Russia to the Middle East, and from Bilbao, Spain to Washington, D.C. and Idaho.As suspense grows by the minute, Kaye, Halberstam and their comrades try to stop an act of terror and treason on a horrific scale. Will they succeed?
Sometimes life imitates great artAnd sometimes time runs out before it hits zero
