How do the rich get rich? An updated edition of the “remarkable” New York Times bestseller, based on two decades of research (The Washington Post). Most of the truly wealthy in the United States don’t live in Beverly Hills or on Park Avenue. They live next door. America’s wealthy seldom get that way through an inheritance or an advanced degree. They bargain-shop for used cars, raise children who don’t realize how rich their families are, and reject a lifestyle of flashy exhibitionism and competitive spending. In fact, the glamorous people many of us think of as “rich” are actually a tiny minority of America’s truly wealthy citizens—and behave quite differently than the majority. At the time of its first publication, The Millionaire Next Door was a groundbreaking examination of America’s rich—exposing for the first time the seven common qualities that appear over and over among this exclusive demographic. This edition includes a new foreword by Dr. Thomas J. Stanley—updating the original content in the context of the financial crash and the twenty-first century. “Their surprising results reveal fundamental qualities of this group that are diametrically opposed to today’s earn-and-consume culture.” —Library Journal

This book presents operational and practical issues of automotive mechatronics with special emphasis on the heterogeneous automotive vehicle systems approach, and is intended as a graduate text as well as a reference for scientists and engineers involved in the design of automotive mechatronic control systems. As the complexity of automotive vehicles increases, so does the dearth of high competence, multi-disciplined automotive scientists and engineers. This book provides a discussion into the type of mechatronic control systems found in modern vehicles and the skills required by automotive scientists and engineers working in this environment. Divided into two volumes and five parts, Automotive Mechatronics aims at improving automotive mechatronics education and emphasises the training of students’ experimental hands-on abilities, stimulating and promoting experience among high education institutes and produce more automotive mechatronics and automation engineers. The main subject that are treated are: VOLUME I: RBW or XBW unibody or chassis-motion mechatronic control hypersystems; DBW AWD propulsion mechatronic control systems; BBW AWB dispulsion mechatronic control systems; VOLUME II: SBW AWS conversion mechatronic control systems; ABW AWA suspension mechatronic control systems. This volume was developed for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as for professionals involved in all disciplines related to the design or research and development of automotive vehicle dynamics, powertrains, brakes, steering, and shock absorbers (dampers). Basic knowledge of college mathematics, college physics, and knowledge of the functionality of automotive vehicle basic propulsion, dispulsion, conversion and suspension systems is required.

The best way to discover Seville through local eyes. The Ultimate Local's Guide to Seville provides everything you need to know to enjoy the capital city of Andalusia. José M. Bejarano is a local Sevillian passionate about the history, culture and gastronomy of his city. Since December 2017, the Humanities graduate and guide has hosted unique Airbnb experiences, offering visitors a chance to explore different parts of the city from a local point of view, becoming a top-rated host in Seville in the process. The tourism industry has changed and visitors are now demanding a different way of discovering places off the beaten track, immersing themselves in local life and getting to know the real city. José realised that most of his guests were usually asking for, recommendations that could not be found on the big Internet platforms or guidebooks, but about what locals do, places to go, where to enjoy a nice meal or attend an authentic flamenco show. This is the purpose of this book: a personal point of view of his own city, with useful advice for visitors and helpful information about the different tourist attractions in the city, cultural interest sites, restaurants, flamenco places and day trip options, as well as answers to the most frequently asked questions. About the author José M. Bejarano was born in Seville in October 1988. With a background in Humanities and fluent in foreign languages he focused his career on tourism after becoming a licensed guide for the region of Andalusia. He has been hosting unique experiences since 2017 and now with his guidebook he also offers to potential visitors to Seville his own point of view of the different monuments and tourist attractions with tips and useful information to make them enjoy the city from a local's perspective. He also founded his own brand calle Seville Unique Experiences with the objective of approaching travellers who want to explore off the beaten path.
