The Broadway Books Library of Larceny Luc Sante, General Editor For more than fifty years, Willie Sutton devoted his boundless energy and undoubted genius exclusively to two activities at which he became better than any man in history: breaking in and breaking out. The targets in the first instance were banks and in the second, prisons. Unarguably America’s most famous bank robber, Willie never injured a soul, but took on almost a hundred banks and departed three of America’s most escape-proof penitentiaries. This is the stuff of myth—rascally and cautionary by turns—yet true in every searing, diverting, and brilliantly recalled detail.

“One of the best books I have read on investing in years. ” —Bill Ackman, founder and CEO, Pershing Square Capital Management From a successful investor and a contributor to Barron’s and Fortune comes a once-in-a-lifetime book that gives modern investors what they need most: a fresh guide to making money in a stock market now dominated by tech stocks. Technological change is reshaping the economy in a way not witnessed since Henry Ford introduced the assembly line. A little more than ten years ago, only two of the ten most valuable publicly traded companies in the world were digital enterprises—today, they comprise eight of the top ten. Investors around the world are struggling to understand the Digital Age and how they can use the stock market to profit from it. Author Adam Seessel understands. Several years ago, he watched his old-school portfolio built using traditional value investing principles decline while the market, driven by “expensive” tech stocks, advanced. Determined to reverse course, he set off in search of a new investment paradigm, one that remained true to the discipline that Ben Graham gave us a century ago while reflecting the new realities of the Digital Age. In this “helpful take on playing the stock market” (Publishers Weekly), Seessel introduces a refreshed value-based framework that any investor, professional or amateur, can use to beat the modern market. Like all sectors, the tech sector follows certain rules. We can study these rules, understand them, and invest accordingly. The world is changing, and we can profit from it. Approaching tech this way, the economy’s current changes and the rapid rise of tech stocks are not reasons to be frightened or disoriented—they’re reasons to be excited. Infused with the same kind of optimism and common sense that inspired Benjamin Graham’s The Intelligent Investor and Peter Lynch’s One Up on Wall Street, Where the Money Is ushers in a new era of modern value investing.

Money is nothing more than what is commonly exchanged for goods or services, so why has understanding it become so complicated? In Money, renowned economist John Kenneth Galbraith cuts through the confusions surrounding the subject to present a compelling and accessible account of a topic that affects us all. He tells the fascinating story of money, the key factors that shaped its development, and the lessons that can be learned from its history. He describes the creation and evolution of monetary systems and explains how finance, credit, and banks work in the global economy. Galbraith also shows that, when it comes to money, nothing is truly new—least of all inflation and fraud.

Advertising and other forms of marketing communications are not serving the needs of marketers or their audiences as well as they should. Faced with increasing pressure for accountability, marketers are often disappointed in the result of their communications investment. The problem is that marketers continue to focus most of their resources on the types of communications that have little credibility with and impact on audiences. Parker Stoner of marketing communications agency Swanson Russell says there is a Hierarchy of Marketing Communications Effectiveness in which the categories of communications near the top have much greater influence on purchase decisions compared to the often overused categories lower in the hierarchy. Near the top of the hierarchy are peoples' actual and virtual experiences with brands, along with recommendations from sources they trust. On the other hand, basic brand awareness and image advertising, brand sponsorships, and other types of commonly used communications are found near the bottom of the hierarchy. In Put Your Mouth Where the Money Is, Stoner argues that marketers need to allocate more of their communications (mouths) to those categories that most influence audience purchases (money). Put Your Mouth Where the Money Is begins by helping marketers make a CONNECTION with their audiences by explaining why and where to refocus marketing communications resources. It follows with a recommended PROCESS to implement and measure communications among their customers and prospects. It then concludes with IDEAS for marketers to develop marketing communications that enhance the value of their products for customers. When followed, the principles help marketers better engage and influence their audiences, resulting in greater return on marketing communications resources.
