Описание: Maggie Mueller lives a comfortable life in a beautiful Boston suburb. She has never worried about money, until the day her husband disappears and her pleasantly ordinary life takes a sudden and unusual turn. In a matter of hours, the FBI crashes in, foreclosure threatens, and she faces destitution. Maggie, confronted with these crises, refuses to give in. Starting at the beginning, she sets out to learn everything about money; first how to get it, then how to manage it, and finally how to invest it. In the tumultuous year that follows, Maggie remakes herself and her life. She learns that money matters, just not in the same way as she had previously thought. "Money Matters" is an exciting story that is designed to cover one personal finance concept per chapter. The author uses masterful story telling to share important financial lessons on a wide range of concepts including credit, taxes, retirement plans, and investing basics. The novel dramatizes the consequences of financial illiteracy, and then gently introduces readers to the basic money management skills, using romance and melodrama to enliven material that too often is made overly complex and ambiguous. In clear and easy to understand language, the reader can learn everything from how to raise cash in a pinch to how to trade options on the NYSE. As Maggie learns, finances should not control your life, you should control your finances. Readers will come away with an understanding of financial literacy basics and an ability to comfortably talk about money with everyone from life partners to financial advisors.

Описание: This book investigates death as part of contemporary everyday experience and practices. Through a cultural sociological lens, it studies death as it remains constantly at the edge of our consciousness, shaping the ways in which we move through social reality. As such, Death Matters is a significant contribution to death studies, going beyond traditional parameters of the field by addressing the cultural omnipresence of death.The contributions analyse several death-related meaning-making processes, arguing that meanings emerging from culturally shared narratives, social institutions, and material conditions, are just as important as ’death practices’ in understanding the role of death in society. Drawing on the related themes of places of absence and presence, disease and bodies, and persons and non-persons, the authors explore a variety of areas of social life, from haunting to celebrity deaths, to move the notion of death from the margins of social reality to ongoing everyday life.This far-reaching collection will be of use to scholars and students across death studies, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, culture, media and communication studies.
