A thought-provoking and comprehensive look at uncovering the root causes of persistent racial inequalities in the workplace, Dr Carlton Brown begins by examining the history of racial discrimination and how it has shaped the societal context in which organisations operate. He argues that despite concerted efforts towards diversity and inclusion, organisations often fail to create equitable spaces for people of colour. He highlights the paradoxical nature of these failures, where organisations simultaneously praise themselves for progress while maintaining deeply ingrained racial hierarchies. He exposes the prevalent racial biases, discrimination, and exclusionary practices that persist within many organisations, revealing the disconnect between intention and reality. He highlights how these issues not only hinder the personal and professional growth of individuals from marginalised communities but also impedes the overall success and progress of organisations. A comprehensive look at the state of race-relations in the workplace The Race Paradox is a perfect guide to understanding why discussing race and addressing it in the workplace is vital in todays world.

When Jeremy Grantham entered the investment business in the 1960s, he brought the thrifty Yorkshire values he had been raised with. While other money managers focused on blue chip stocks, he studied stock market history and constructed the first indices for small-cap and value stocks. Charting their ebb and flow, he saw the powerful force that would become central to his investment philosophy: mean reversion, the heartbreaking principle that good times always revert back to more boring, more ordinary times.In the early 1970s Grantham launched one of the first S&P 500 index strategies. Soon after, he cofounded GMO, which became the first firm to use a computer for investment analysis. In the late 1990s he acquired notoriety as a permabear for refusing to buy into dotcom mania. Clients left in droves, but he was vindicated when the bubble burst in 2000. Yet while his wealth grew, so did his alarm at the disastrous consequences of short-term thinking for both investors and for the planet, and he has directed nearly all his wealth to environmental protection.Written with the bestselling financial historian Edward Chancellor, The Making of a Permabear is replete with investment insights and provides a candid insiders tour of the booms and busts of the past half century.

Un libro que une lo que la ciencia advierte, la historia confirma y la política evita asumir: que ningún progreso puede ignorar los límites del planeta.Vivimos rodeados de energía, aunque pocas veces pensamos en lo que cuesta producirla. Detras de cada alimento, de cada luz encendida o de cada viaje en coche hay una compleja maquinaria impulsada por petroleo, gas o carbon. Hoy, obtener una sola kilocaloria de cordero puede requerir hasta cincuenta y siete de combustible fosil: una paradoja que anuncia el final de un modelo a medida que las reservas se agotan.En La guerra por la energia, el exministro Alberto Garzon recorre la historia de la humanidad desde los cazadores-recolectores de la prehistoria hasta el capitalismo del siglo XXI, pasando por el colonialismo, la Revolucion Industrial o las actuales disputas en torno al litio y las tierras raras, para mostrar como la lucha por controlar las fuentes de energia ha dado forma a nuestras sociedades, impulsado y derribado imperios y define el mapa geopolitico actual.Con un estilo claro y riguroso, Garzon entrelaza historia, ciencia y politica para explicar el camino que nos ha conducido a la crisis ambiental actual, y propone un horizonte distinto: una sociedad que reconozca los limites del planeta y situe la justicia social en el centro.
