Contents: (from the Foreword), The author feels strongly that "the market needs a place and the market needs to be kept in its place." This recurrent dual them of the book distinguishes Okun both from radical thinkers, who would abolish market capitalism, and from exponents laissez-faire, who would generally broaden its role. Okun values the market as a decentralized and efficient system for spurring and channeling productive effort and for promoting experiment and innovation,; he also sees it as a protector of individual freedom of expression. But he insists that other values must be protected from the potential tyranny of the dollar yardstick and that many rights and powers should not be bought for money. -- end. indexed, 124 pp. -- Interesting read on efficiency from Okun.

The Secret Sexual Life of the Stock Market

The Secret Sexual Life of the Stock Market
by Spencer Fleming (aka: C.M. Flumiani)

Book Description: The Library of Wall Street, Albuquerque, NM, 1970. Soft cover. C.M. Flumiani (illustrator). Reprint. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Softcover, Reprint, exact facsimile of the original first edition, first printing published in 1970. Numerous scribbled illustrations by Flumiani, 31 pp. Written by Carlo Maria Flumiani under the pseudonym, "Spencer Fleming, pagination is funky, (as expected with Flumiani titles) as the first chapter starts at page 9 even though it's 6 pages in from the front cover, guaranteed complete facsimile of original.

Contents: Chapter 1. Man The Barbarian, 2. The Tyranny of the Emotions, 3. Love and Power, 4. Indifference, Donation & Possession, 5. The Intima & Perversions, 6. Exaggerations and Perversions, 7. Self-Destruction, Life & Sex, 8. Ignorance, Success & Failure, 9. The Stock Market Advances, 10. The Stock Market Declines, 11. The Reclining Positions, 12. The Law of the Extremes, 13. Moronic Beatitudes & Destructive Dejections, 14. Duality: the Double Contrary & the Concordant Action, 15. Sex-for-Pleasure and Sex-for-Procreation, 16. The Rapidity of the Action, 17. Perfection and Imperfection, 18. The Orgasm as a Vaticinatory Experience. -- end. 31 pp. Summary: This 1970 title, published a year after the summer of love, is Flumiani at his eccentric best. The awkward prose and skewed perspectives Flumiani had on the markets in the 60's and 70's are now a welcome diversion to what is otherwise a generally straight jacketed approach by other authors to explain stock market price movement. The Secret Sexual Life of the Stock Market is probably the most entertaining of the Flumiani Collection, and in my opinion actually one of his most coherent. This was the first book Flumiani authored as Fleming, the 2nd was "The Failure of the American Democracy," in 1973, and at least one more in 1977. Extremely Scarce Title, Collectible Reprint.

Condition: Good, some chipping to edges, pages extremely tanned, paper clip rust mark to top left corner, author / typist penciled notes and corrections throughout,

Contents: A thought provoking text on numerology and Universal Law by Hall, here's the first paragraph, "I do not believe there is any philosophy in the world that gives us such a wonderful working knowledge of principles as the doctrines of Pythagoras. In his mathematical philosophy Pythagoras reveals very closely the relationship between the great Universal Laws governing life and the application of these Laws to the affairs of men. First of all it clearly indicates that everywhere in nature, everywhere in the life of the human being, the various things that we see, the phenomenon of living as we know it, every part is directly related to a Universal Reality. Forms are symbols of ideas.

Human beings are symbols of cosmic motion, we are a part of the motion of the Universe through Space. The individual purpose of man, his arts, crafts, trades and professions, are symbols of the extension of his soul power. Everything that the individual does as an individual is a symbol of the principles working through him. All these principles are of themselves invisible but are apparent to us in the outworking of themselves in our patterns of life and action." -- Hall was a friend of R.N. Elliott and had a profound influence on Elliott's understanding of Universal Law which Elliott later characterized in his book, "Nature's Law: The Secret of the Universe (1946)". 13 pp. Highly Collectible Original Typewritten Manuscript.
