Civilization as readers know it has disappeared. Marauding bands are terrorizing the countryside, killing and looting. Jeremy Bellamy Walthers' goal is to cross 2,000 miles of ravaged countryside to reach the security of his brother's Montana ranch. En route he befriends a wolf who becomes a partner and companion via verbal and nonverbal communication. The story deals with Jeremy's interaction with the wolf and the other human survivors of the economic collapse.

There was a period of boom in 2004. Then came the global crisis, a sharp deceleration in Indiaâs growth rate and a waning of confidence about Indiaâs economic prospects both at home and abroad.This collection of articles, written for The Economic Times and the Economic and Political Weekly, provides an intelligent â and often off-beat- analysis of events in the Indian economy as well as the world economy over the period 2004-2012.As the financial sector has been at the heart of the crisis, the Indian banking sector as well as international banking come in for close scrutiny. The book also takes in its stride developments in the Indian polity, and a range of issues relating to management and governance. Written in the readable and hard-hitting style for which the author is well-known, the book is at once a chronicle and a critique of a turbulent period for the Indian economy as well as the global economy.

From the Dust Jacket: "'Starting from scratch, simply by picking stocks and companies for investment, Warren Buffett amassed one of the epochal fortunes of the twentieth century - an astounding net worth of $10 billion, and counting. If you had been one of the lucky few sitting in his study in Omaha at the start of his career in 1956, and had invested $10,000 dollars with him... your original investment would be worth $80 million today. That awesome record has made him a cult figure popularly known for his seeming contradictions: a billionaire who lives a modest lifestyle, a phenomenally successful investor who eschews the revolving-door trading of modern Wall Street, a brilliant deal-maker who cultivates a homespun aura. But just who is the Oracle of Omaha and why is he so successful? In his illuminating biography, Roger Lowenstein draws on three years of unprecedented access to Buffett's family, friends, and colleagues to provide the first definitive account of the life and career of this American original. Buffett reveals a man whose conscientiousness, integrity, and good humor exist alongside an odd emotional isolation. It shows how Buffett's investment strategy - a long-term philosophy grounded in buying stock in companies that are undervalued on the market and hanging on until their worth invariably surfaces - is a reflection of his inner self. Intelligent and offbeat, Buffett was obsessed with money-making from childhood. His parents (particularly his stockbroker/politician father) were demanding but instilled in him self-reliance and honesty. As an undergraduate at Wharton, Buffett knew as much about economics as his teachers did - but at Columbia Business School he met Professor Ben Graham, whose investment philosophy he adopted and then improved on with his own particular genius. Buffett masterfully traces its subject's life: his enormously successful partnership, his early inspired investments in American Express and Geico, his companionship and investment with Katherine Graham of the Washington Post... his rescue of the scandal-ridden Salomon Brothers. Lowenstein paints Buffett as the antithesis of the reckless mentality that fueled the financial debacle on Wall Street at the end of the 1980s, and shows him to be a man on a lifelong search for stability and security. In outlining the character traits and financial philosophy that made Buffett the country's richest man, Buffett presents a landmark portrait of a uniquely American life." .
