Daly, and Julie Zissimopoulos bring together leading scholars to study the impact of unexpected life course events on economic welfare.

Although these events are typically studied in isolation, they frequently co-occur or are otherwise interrelated. This book provides a systematic empirical overview of these sometimes uncertain events and their impact. By placing them in a unified analytical framework and approaching each of them from a similar perspective, Lifecycle Events and Their Consequences illustrates the importance of a coherent approach to thinking about the inter-relationships among these shifts. Finally, this volume aims to set the future research agenda in this important area.

Lifeprints: Deciphering Your Life Purpose from Your Fingerprints
by Richard UngerUnique, unchanging, and formed five months before birth, fingerprints have been an accepted and infallible means of personal identification for a century. In LIFEPRINTS, Richard Unger presents a groundbreaking method of self-discovery and offers a daily compass for meaning and fulfillment. Combining the science of dermatoglyphics (the study of fingerprints and related line and hand shape designations) with the ancient wisdom of palmistry, the LifePrints system is a simple yet profoundly accurate means of mapping one's life purpose. Like examining an acorn to know what kind of oak tree may one day emerge, reading our fingerprints reveals who we are meant to become. A guide to discovering one's life purpose by decoding the map revealed in our unique combination of fingerprints. This new system is based on the author's 25 years of research and fingerprint statistics for more than 52,000 hands. Features step-by-step instructions for identifying the fingerprints and mapping the life lessons for reaching our full potential. Includes detailed case studies plus fingerprint readings for Albert Einstein, John F. Kennedy, Amelia Earhart, Walt Disney, Susan B. Anthony, Martin Luther King, Charles Manson, and others. Reviews"This 286 page find brings palm-reading to a whole new level. I was impressed and amazed at the way the author could first, present such a difficult concept in an easy manner, and then to explain it in such a way that it made perfect sense. I could just by following along with the simple step by step guidelines learn how a line here, or a length there could truly determine not only the path my life might take, but what means I would use to get it there. The archetypes were majorly fascinating.There were interesting graphs and charts throughout that helped to clarify the concepts being presented and it was done in such a way that just made sense. I will never look at my hands the same way again. The experience was very much like casting a horoscope for my fingers, especially when they gave examples of the lifeprints of famous people. I would recommend this interesting form of self discovery to anyone at any stage of their spiritual journey . Thanks Richard, for helping it all make sense.-Riki Frahmann www.planetstarz.com

Life's a Campaign: What Politics Has Taught Me About Friendship, Rivalry, Reputation, and Success
by Chris MatthewsChris Matthews is like no other TV interviewer. Life's a Campaign is like no other book on success. Famous for demanding the truth from his Hardball guests, Chris Matthews now reveals what the people running this country rarely confess: the secrets of how they got to the top. Here is the first book on power with insight snatched from those who wield it. Life's a Campaign exposes the tactics, tricks, and truths that help people get ahead-and can help you, too, whatever your field of ambition. Written in the assertive, good-natured style that is Matthews's trademark, Life's a Campaign is the most useful kind of investigative reporting. You'll benefit from his insider's scrutiny of the Congress, the White House, and the national news media. Here are the methods, showcased in fascinating anecdotes and case histories, that presidents, senators, and other powerful people use to persuade others and win--and the life lessons they provide for the rest of us. You'll learn about Bill Clinton's laser-focused ability to listen to those he wants to seduce--and how he's been teaching that craft to his wife, Hillary; how Ronald Reagan employed his basic optimism to win history to his side; the simple steps in human diplomacy that the first President Bush exploited to assemble a worldwide posse to attack Saddam Hussein and gain global approval in a way his son has failed to do; how Nancy Pelosi became the first woman Speaker of the House by practicing the most fundamental of human qualities: hard-nosed loyalty. You'll also find out, for the first time, about Matthews's own wild ride through the turbulent, converging rapids of politics and journalism. The big payoff in Life's a Campaign is what you'll learn about human nature: * People would rather be listened to than listen. * People don't mind being used; what they mind is being discarded. * People are more loyal to the people they've helped than the people they've helped are loyal to them. * Not everyone's going to like you. * No matter what anybody says, nobody wants a level playing field. Knowing such truths is the successful person's number one advantage in life. As you'll learn in Life's a Campaign, mastering--and employing--these truths separates the leaders from the followers.
