The financial crisis is sending shockwaves all over the world, yet most of us have no idea where our money is. The only sure thing is that it's not in the bank to which we entrusted it. The bank has submitted it for circulation in the global money market. Following the tracks of money through the world-wide finance system, Let's Make Money points out the consequences of our greed for money.

The father and son Klontz duo (coauthors of Wired for Wealth ) combine psychology, self-help, financial know-how and practical advice in this study of how money affects us emotionally and psychologically. The authors start with “flashpoints,” seminal incidents that build “money scripts,” the beliefs that “shape the way we think about and interact with money as adults.” Revealing exercises prompt readers to identify their personal money scripts and patterned behaviors—often provoking the discovery of money “disorders,” and a host of powerful memories and early experiences responsible for extravagance or financial irresponsibility. The process is complex but important; the authors reveal how powerfully emotions and childhood experiences influence our financial health and attitudes toward money.

The good news is that people today expect to live longer, healthier lives. The bad news is that many of us will not have enough money to retire comfortably. The solution to this problem is wise investment of the wealth we accumulate during our working lives, but the unfortunate truth is that when it comes to investment, many of us don't know where to start. Daniel Goldie and Gordon Murray aim to change the way we think about investing and influence the way we select financial advisors, invest our money and assess the results. In THE INVESTMENT ANSWER they provide readers with the necessary background to make the five key decisions that have a significant impact on the overall investment experience so that they will never again be afraid of financial markets or uncertain about what to do with their money.

A quarter of a million dollars. It's the going tab for four years at most top-tier colleges. Why does it cost so much and is it worth it?

In this provocative investigation, the renowned sociologist Andrew Hacker and New York Times writer Claudia Dreifus make an incisive case that the American way of higher education-now a $420 billion-per-year business-has lost sight of its primary mission: the education of our young people. They probe the true performance of the Ivy League, the baleful influence of tenure, an unhealthy reliance on part-time teachers, and supersized bureaucracies which now have lives of their own.
