A timely guide for financial professionals looking to tap into the lucrative world of the ultra-affluent The ultra affluent–defined here as those having $50 million or more in liquid assets–are an elite class who expect their financial advisors to not only preserve and grow their assets, but also help them with "soft" issues such as philanthropy and family governance. One of the biggest factors to success in this field is the relationship between the client and the advisor. In Advising Ultra-Affluent Clients and Family Offices, author and practicing investment consultant Michael Pompian provides a practical introduction to who the ultra-affluent actually are and reveals what it takes to build and maintain a solid relationship with them. Filled with in-depth insights and expert advice, this unique resource offers valuable information on issues that every advisor to the ultra-affluent must be familiar with.

Since the advent of the space age, a primary constraint on military, commercial, and civil space missions has been the cost of launch. Launching objects into space requires substantial investments in launch systems and infrastructure, which has restricted the market to only a handful of national governments and several large private companies. This study explores the possibility of a space industry significantly less constrained by the cost of access to space.

Nili develops a novel conception of 'the people', both as an agent with its own moral integrity, and as an owner of public property. Exploring problems central to present-day politics, this non-technical book will appeal to political theorists, but also to readers in public policy, area studies, law, and across the social sciences.

Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Medicine - Neurology, Psychiatry, Addiction, grade: 1,7, University of Groningen, language: English, abstract: Disturbances in emotion processing and regulation are a hallmark characteristic of schizophrenia, and have been shown to be present in at-risk populations. We investigated behavioral and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) differences during emotion processing and reappraisal of negative images in people at ultra-high risk (UHR) for psychosis compared to healthy controls (HC). We hypothesized that during emotion processing UHR participants will show increased activation of the ventral stream compared to HC. During reappraisal UHR were expected to show less activation of the dorsal stream compared to HC. Twelve UHR and eleven HC participated in this fMRI study in which they performed an Emotion Regulation Task. In addition, participants were asked to complete several relevant questionnaires. Brain activation during processing of negative versus neutral images did not yield significant differences between the UHR and HC, but showed a trend for increased activation in UHR participants: HC showed activation in the middle and inferior temporal gyrus, whereas the UHR group showed activation in the bilateral DLPPFC, and bilateral frontopolar cortex, the superior and inferior occipital gyrus, the cingulate gyrus, the insula and the basal ganglia. During reappraisal differences in brain activation supported our hypothesis: the UHR group showed decreased prefrontal and temporal lobe activation compared to HC. Results from the behavioral data showed that both groups were able to successfully down-regulate negative emotion. We concluded that the at-risk group showed abnormal brain activity during reappraisal that was in line with expectations, however the outcome of the behavioral results remains puzzling, and should be subjected to further study.

Jurgen Schulte and Christian Endler met in 1990 at an international conference on the Structure of Water held in the Lecture Halls of the University of Graz (Austria). Disappointed by the lack of a systematic strategy of research into the physics of homoeopathy Jurgen Schulte started to work on the establishment of scientifically acceptable research standards in physics of homoeopathy and encouraged academic researchers to establish a coordinated and focused research strategy. In 1994, with the help of major representatives of the international research community, they edited one of the fIrst academic interdisciplinary books on Ultra High Dilution and homoeopathy that underwent a rigorous scientific international referee process before publishing. Due to the dedicated help of the prominent referees (BD Josephson, Nobel Laureate, Cavendish Lab. , Cambridge; M Bastide, Fac de Pharmacy, University Montpellier; RG Jahn, Aerospace Science, Princeton University), the book 1994 was quickly considered a mile stone and turning point for the scientific approach of research into Ultra High Dilution and homoeopathy. Since then the academic research community has grown considerably and many international conferences have been held. Today, research into homoeopathy is to be accepted by the European Union as part of the academic sciences, worthy to be funded at European Union level; an effort that took many years of research coordination and research strategy development. Excerpts of the Research Strategy of the European Committee for Homoeopathy (ECH) have been included in this book.
