How trade imbalances spurred on the global financial crisis and why we aren't out of trouble yet China's economic growth is sputtering, the Euro is under threat, and the United States is combating serious trade disadvantages. Another Great Depression? Not quite. Noted economist and China expert Michael Pettis argues instead that we are undergoing a critical rebalancing of the world economies. Debunking popular misconceptions, Pettis shows that severe trade imbalances spurred on the recent financial crisis and were the result of unfortunate policies that distorted the savings and consumption patterns of certain nations. Pettis examines the reasons behind these destabilizing policies, and he predicts severe economic dislocations that will have long-lasting effects. Demonstrating how economic policies can carry negative repercussions the world over, The Great Rebalancing sheds urgent light on our globally linked economic future.

An intriguing tale of one woman’s fight for freedom as she tries to save herself from her past. In The Perilous Road to Freedom, the anticipated sequel to The Perilous Road to Her, N.L. Blandford takes us on Olivia Beaumont’s harrowing journey to find herself and her freedom. A survivor of William Hammond’s human trafficking ring, Olivia Beaumont longs to forget the past five months. Pregnant, and scared of the ties her past will have to her future, Olivia will need more than denial to battle the monsters of her nightmares, and fate. Right outside Olivia’s apartment door stands a past she thought was dead and gone. A past believed to have been killed with her own two hands. A past that forces her back into a world of power, greed and manipulation. Will Olivia’s stubbornness and determination be enough for her to be able to fight the monsters around her, and those in her head, to retake her freedom?
