Aí você pergunta: quem foi o gênio por trás disso? O que essa gente tinha na cabeça?! Desde que Adão deu uma mordida no fruto proibido e foi expulso nu em pelo do Jardim do Éden, a humanidade tem tido uma ideia pior do que a outra. De líderes políticos obtusos e cientistas loucos a cantores pop que não cantam bulhufas. As 100 Piores Ideias da História é uma celebração das mancadas homéricas – e muitas vezes histéricas – que deram origem a guerras, afundaram países, arruinaram empresas, destruíram carreiras, causaram prejuízos de milhões e até, pasmem, ameaçaram a Terra.

Neste influente e original ensaio, Murray Rothbard defende que o Estado nada mais é do que uma instituição que viola tudo aquilo que consideramos honesto e moral, sempre agindo sob uma falsa aura de bondade e preocupação para com o cidadão. Ele demonstra ainda como esse mesmo Estado devasta a liberdade, destrói a civilização e ameaça a vida, a propriedade e o bem-estar social das pessoas. Em A Anatomia do Estado, Rothbard consolida tudo o que aprendeu com as tradições misesiana, liberal e anarcocapitalista.

The Moon will soon return. Whether this heralds the destruction of humankind or something worse will depend on two women. Essun has inherited the phenomenal power of Alabaster Tenring.

This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the Earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

In The Outsiders, you'll learn the traits and methods striking for their consistency and relentless rationality that helped these unique leaders achieve such exceptional performance. Humble, unassuming, and often frugal, these "outsiders" shunned Wall Street and the press, and shied away from the hottest new management trends. Instead, they shared specific traits that put them and the companies they led on winning trajectories: a laser-sharp focus on per share value as opposed to earnings or sales growth; an exceptional talent for allocating capital and human resources; and the belief that cash flow, not reported earnings, determines a company's long-term value.

Some of the parchment pages were the color of cream, thick and substantial, made to last many, many lifetimes. Other pages were thin and desiccated, positively yellow from age, and crackled alarmingly as Van Richten turned them over. There were no ornate illuminations, no fussy borders, only lines of plain text in hard black ink. The flowing handwriting was a bit difficult to follow at first; the writer's style of calligraphy had not been in common use for 300 years. No table of contents, but from the dates it looked to be some kind of history.

Why is it still active? Those secrets, and many more, are waiting to be revealed. If, of course, Drake can keep The Authority from killing him and taking it all over.

An unexpected ride on the Devil’s bike wasn’t part of the plan. I came to New Orleans for a taste of freedom, the kind my overbearing father and sheltered life never allowed. Bourbon Street, wild nights, no rules. That was supposed to be the plan. I didn’t expect to lose my friends, my sense of direction, or my common sense. When I wandered into a station and saw him standing there—dark, dangerous, and watching me like I was his next problem to solve—I should’ve kept walking. But instead, I let Raven offer me a ride. I climbed on the back of his bike. I let him into my hotel room.
