"Numerous studies have found a positive relationship between wealth and entering entrepreneurship, and interpret this as evidence of the existence of liquidity constraints. However, recent research has shown that the relationship between wealth and entering entrepreneurship may be non-linear and only significant for high-wealth households; this result cannot be interpreted as evidence of liquidity constraints. Using data from the SCF, we construct a proxy for wealth based on the household''s home equity wealth at the time of the entrepreneurial decision. The results provide further evidence that the relationship between wealth and entering entrepreneurship is only significant for high-wealth households and that liquidity constraints do not appear to bind for the majority of new entrepreneurs. Possible explanations for the relationship between wealth and becoming an entrepreneur include lower risk aversion and differences in the types of businesses started by high-wealth households"--Federal Reserve Board web site.

AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER NOW HEADERS ARE THRILLING. BUT FOOTBALL IS FACING A CONCUSSION CRISIS. IS HEADING WORTH IT? Heading the ball is considered as much a part of football as passing, tackling and shooting. Pelé, Cristiano Ronaldo, Robin Van Persie - all have executed memorable headers. But the impact can cause lasting damage. Heading for Trouble is an essential exposé on this dynamic yet increasingly controversial skill. The human brain is a jelly, floating in a protective fluid, and there is clear scientific evidence that even minor impacts, such as heading, can lead to a neurodegenerative brain disease. Through new research and exclusive interviews with former players and neurological experts, Dr Kevin Moore, consultant researcher and founding director of the National Football Museum, explores the fascinating history of heading in football and the dangerous, frequently tragic consequences it can cause. He highlights the football establishment''s inaction and exposes what may be the game''s greatest ever scandal. Heading for Trouble brilliantly brings this urgent issue into sharp focus and explores how football and heading can move forward without such tragic cost to its players.

Comment expliquer que Jacques Henri Lartigue soit soudain devenu l''une des icônes de la photographie du XXe siècle ? Tordant le cou à une vision instinctive et naïve de sa pratique, Kevin Moore revisite dans cet essai la formation du photographe et le processus qui l''a érigé en mythe. Contrairement à l''image communément admise, Lartigue n''est pas qu''un amateur talentueux qui s''est attelé à saisir le flux du monde moderne et mécanique et à photographier les moments heureux de sa vie. Il est un précurseur majeur, qui est parvenu à excéder son époque, hybridant une certaine forme de culture visuelle (photographie amateur, presse illustrée, cinéma) et la photographie d''art. Kevin Moore lui rend ainsi sa juste place dans l''histoire de la photographie et lève le voile de suspicion qui empêchait jusqu''alors d''achever sa canonisation. L''histoire de Lartigue se laisse conter à l''envi. Fils d''un riche banquier et rejeton de la Belle Époque, il était tant épris d''automobiles et d''avions, de mode et de spectacles, qu''il se mit à photographier jusqu''à l''obsession la vie qui l''entourait. Il photographia d''abord le cercle familial, puis les rallyes en Auvergne, les baigneurs à Deauville et Biarritz, les avions à Issy-les-Moulineaux, les sports d''hiver en Suisse et les courses de voiture à Auteuil. Sans oublier l''incessante parade sociale. Idyllique et enviable, la jeunesse de Lartigue fut une telle suite de bonheurs fabuleux qu''elle en semble presque irréelle. En 1962, Lartigue est en vacances aux Etats-Unis quand il débarque dans les bureaux d''un agent new-yorkais. Agé de soixante-neuf ans, il n''est pas plus connu pour ses photographies que pour ses tableaux, or en juin 1963, plus d''une quarantaine de ses premières images est exposée au MoMA. La même année, quelques-unes paraissent dans le magazine Life. Dix ans plus tard, il est l''un des photographes les plus connus au monde.
