Jim Rogers Knihy

Was Jim Rogers in seinem Leben anpackte, wurde zu einem durchschlagenden Erfolg. Bereits mit 37 Jahren beendete er offiziell sein Arbeitsleben, nachdem er mit seinem Quantum Fonds in nur 10 Jahren eine Rendite von mehr als 4000 Prozent eingefahren hatte. Sein Partner dabei war kein Geringerer als der legendäre George Soros. Er hatte sich bewiesen, dass er gut war in seinem Geschäft. Doch das genügte ihm nicht. Zweimal umrundete er die Welt, einmal auf dem Motorrad, einmal in einem eigens für ihn umgebauten Mercedes SLK. Die Erfahrungen aus diesen Trips, die ihm beide Male zu einem Eintrag im Guinness Buch der Rekorde verhalfen, fasste er in seinen beiden ersten Büchern zusammen. Nach einigen Jahren legt er nun sein drittes Buch vor. Rogers fasst all seine Erfahrungen zusammen und zeigt dem Leser, worauf es bei Investments ankommt. Für ihn ist klar: Nur der Rohstoffmarkt wird in Zukunft die großen Gewinne abwerfen. Und er weiss auch warum: Er hat die Länder besucht, wo das Angebot entsteht und er war dort, wo die Nachfrage am größten ist... Das Wesentliche zum Thema Rohstoffe - in einem unglaublich unterhaltsamen Buch.

The Mughal school of miniature painting flourished in northern India in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, chiefly under the patronage of the emperors Akbar, Jahangir and Shah Jahan. Rooted in a diversity of cultural, religious and artistic traditions, it became one of the richest and most productive schools in the whole history of Islamic art. In this beautifully illustrated book the author surveys the development of Mughal painting, from its early beginnings to the masterpieces created by the court studios for the books and albums of their demanding imperial patrons. He describes the historical setting in which the Mughal artists worked and the materials and techniques they used to create their brilliant effects.
