198,95 kr. William George Jordan's 1923 biography of Charles Waldo Haskins delves deep into the life and work of this esteemed and pioneering accountant, exploring what made him special and the lasting impact that he had on the world of finance. Charles Waldo Haskins (1852 - 1903) was an American accountant who co-founded the accounting firm Haskins and Sells, a predecessor to Deloitte. He was famous for advocating unified and reliable counting principles, and he lectured widely on history and methodology. William George Jordan (1864 - 1928) was an American lecturer, editor, and essayist. He is most famous for his self-help books, especially those on the subject of mental training and cognitive improvement. Other notable works by this author include: "Mental Training" (1894)", "The Kingship of Self-Control" (1898), and "The Trusteeship of Life" (1921). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

108,95 kr. The Kingship of Self-Control is an inspiring and motivating manual which instructs on the behavior best suited for attaining happiness and a steady, fulfilling existence.Much as with William Jordan's other books, this work advocates that the reader should train his thought processes and senses to the point where they are masters of their own destiny. The reader can spot the difference between this book's practical advice and what is gained from formal education, which instils only dry facts and mostly unusable knowledge in students. The author, working in the high octane urban landscapes of both his native New York City and Chicago, noticed certain maladies of the human condition. Many people he met were worrisome (which Jordan terms 'the American disease') and would needlessly over-complicate or over-rationalize things in their heads. The phenomena of regret, whereby people wish over and over to have another chance of life, is another thing Jordan condemns as self-defeating.
