Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "A road map for investing that I have now been following for 57 years." -- From the Foreword by Warren E. Buffett. -- "First published in 1934, Security Analysis is one of the most influential financial books ever written. Selling more than one million copies through five editions, it has provided generations of investors with the timeless value investing philosophy and techniques of Benjamin Graham and David L. Dodd. As relevant today as when they first appeared nearly 75 years ago, the teachings of Benjamin Graham, "the father of value investing," have withstood the test of time across a wide diversity of market conditions, countries, and asset classes. This new sixth edition, based on the classic 1940 version, is enhanced with 200 additional pages of commentary from some of today's leading Wall Street money managers. These masters of value investing explain why the principles and techniques of Graham and Dodd are still highly relevant even in today's vastly different markets. The contributor list includes: Seth A. Klarman, president of The Baupost Group, L.L.C. and author of Margin of Safety James Grant, founder of Grant's Interest Rate Observer, general partner of Nippon Partners Jeffrey M. Laderman, twenty-five year veteran of BusinessWeek Roger Lowenstein, author of Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist and When America Aged and Outside Director, Sequoia Fund Howard S.

Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "The [...] temporarily autonomous Post-Wall-era club culture [in Berlin] can be seen as central to understanding the development of the city in the following years, especially Berlin's newly developed informal, anti-aesthetic. This chapter presents the particular context that brought about the emergence of pioneer Post-Wall club spaces and traces the conditions in which these spaces came to blossom as 'interiors without architecture'. [...] [A]s East Berlin had a stock of available industrial spaces, the underground club scene initially grew in East Berlin's abandoned bunkers [...] and electricity plants, ex-industrial and military sites whose raw aesthetic matched the taste of those in the club scene. Today, 30 years later, part of the cultural heritage of early Post-Wall Berlin can be considered an almost spiritual movement which finds itself in a state of decay, with some remaining relics and architectures built on this heritage. [...] Many underground clubs from the Post-Wall Berlin have either been shut down or turned into professional nightlife locations, and herewith the 'autonomous zone' of Berlin turns out to have been a temporary phenomenon."

Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "Bungalows sind als Stadtrand-Bautyp der 1960er und 1970er Jahre im Gebiet der damaligen Bundesrepublik Deutschland allgegenwärtig. Ab den frühen 1950er Jahren trugen viele ArchitektInnenprojekte dazu bei, dass der eingeschossige Bungalow mit flachem, meist weit überstehendem Dach zu der ebenerdigen Wohnhausarchitektur der westdeutschen Nachkriegsmoderne wurde. Unzählige Bungalowbauten in kommerziellen Bauträgerprojekten und größeren Siedlungen machten den schlichten und unkomplizierten Bautyp in den 1960er und 1970er Jahren zu einem Artikel des Massenkonsums, bis Anfang der 1980er Jahre bildhaftere und farbigere Architekturströmungen seine reduzierte Formensprache ablösten -- und steigende Grundstückspreise eingeschossiges Bauen weitgehend unerschwinglich machten. Ex-zentrisch gelegen (auf dem Land oder in Vor- und Kleinstädten im Dunstkreis größerer Agglomerationen), von weniger bekannten ArchitektInnen errichtet oder als kleine Frühwerke renommierter ArchitektInnen leicht übersehen, ist der westdeutsche Bungalow bisher weitgehend unerforscht. Dabei steht er beispielhaft als suburbanes Symbol für die westdeutschen Ideale von einer freiheitlichen Mittelschichtsgesellschaft und bescheidenem 'Wohlstand für Alle'[1] in den ersten Jahrzehnten nach der deutschen Teilung. Darüber hinaus ist er als deutsch-amerikanische Begriffsschöpfung eine etymologische Kuriosität, deren Analyse ein mehrdeutiges Spannungsfeld zwischen ideeller Bildwelt und konkreter baulich-räumlicher Situation offenbart. "1. Titel eines 1957 erschienenen Buchs des damaligen Wirtschaftsministers Ludwig Erhard, der als Bundeskanzler den errichten ließ." -- "Bungalows were ubiquitous as a suburban building type in the 1960s and 1970s in what was then the Federal Republic of Germany. From the early 1950s onwards, many architectural projects contributed to the fact that the single-storey bungalow with a flat, mostly protruding roof became the single-storey residential building architecture of West German post-war modernism. Countless bungalow buildings in commercial property development projects and larger settlements made the simple and uncomplicated building type into an item of mass consumption in the 1960s and 1970s, until more graphic and colourful architectural trends replaced its reduced design language in the early 1980s -- and rising land prices made single-storey building largely unaffordable. Located off-centre (in the country or in suburbs and small towns in the vicinity of larger agglomerations), built by lesser-known architects or easily overlooked as small early works by renowned architects, the West German bungalow has so far been largely unexplored. It is exemplary as a suburban symbol for the West German ideals of a liberal middle-class society and modest 'Wohlstand für Alle' ['Prosperity for everyone'][1] in the first decades after the division of Germany. In addition, as a German-American concept creation, it is an etymological curiosity, the analysis of which reveals an ambiguous field of tension between the ideal world of images and the concrete structural-spatial situation. "1. Title of a book published in 1957 by the then Minister of Economics, Ludwig Erhard, who, as Federal Chancellor, had it built."

Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "This book investigates the long-term continuity of large-scale states and empires, and its effect on the Near East's social fabric, including the fundamental changes that occurred to major social institutions. Its geographical coverage spans, from east to west, modern-day Libya and Egypt to Central Asia, and from north to south, Anatolia to southern Arabia, incorporating modern-day Oman and Yemen. Its temporal coverage spans from the late eighth century BCE to the seventh century CE during the rise of Islam and collapse of the Sasanian Empire. The authors argue that the persistence of large states and empires starting in the eighth/seventh centuries BCE, which continued for many centuries, led to new sociopolitical structures and institutions emerging in the Near East. The primary processes that enabled this emergence were large-scale and long-distance movements, or population migrations. These patterns of social developments are analyzed under different aspects: settlement patterns, urban structure, material culture, trade, governance, language spread, and religion, all pointing at movement as the main catalyst for social change. This book's argument is framed within a larger theoretical framework termed as 'universalism,' a theory that explains many of the social transformations that happened to societies in the Near East, starting from the Neo-Assyrian period and continuing for centuries. Among other influences, the effects of these transformations are today manifested in modern languages, concepts of government, universal religions and monetized and globalized economies."
