Den Svenska Skulden. Konjunkturrådets Rapport 2015
I dagens svenska debatt beskrivs skuldsättningen oftast som ett problem. Men stora skulder kan också ses som tecken på ett väl fungerande finansiellt system. De gör det möjligt för entreprenören utan egen förmögenhet att realisera sina produktiva idéer och för det unga hushållet att köpa sin första bostad. Sparandet kan kanaliseras dit där det gör störst nytta. Men den processen är inte riskfri. Framtiden är oviss. Entreprenörens projekt kan gå fel och hushållet kan få problem att klara betalningarna på bolånet. När blir skulder ett problem? Är det ett problem i Sverige i dag? Hur bör detta i så fall påverka den ekonomiska politiken? SNS Konjunkturråd 2015 analyserar dessa frågor och lägger fram förslag på hur de svenska lånemarknaderna kan förändras för att fungera bättre både för hushåll och företag. I Konjunkturrådet 2015 medverkar Peter Englund (ordförande) och Bo Becker, båda professorer i finansiell ekonomi vid Handelshögskolan i Stockholm, Torbjörn Becker, ekon.dr i nationalekonomi vid SITE, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm, Marieke Bos, fil.dr i nationalekonomi vid SOFI, Stockholms universitet, samt Pehr Wissén, adj. professor i finansiell ekonomi vid Handelshögskolan i Stockholm och SIFR.

Life in Motion: The Osteopathic Vision of Rollin E. Becker, DO
Life in Motion: The Osteopathic Vision of Rollin E. Becker, DO opens a door into a way of healing that is both practical and profound. Throughout its existence, the science and art of osteopathy has been passed on from hand to hand and heart to heart. Dr. Rollin E. Becker and his teachings represent a vital link in this continuity. He was both an inspired student and a compelling teacher. Dr. Becker was following in the path of Drs. A.T. Still, the founder of osteopathy, and W.G. Sutherland, who was the developer of 'osteopathy in the cranial field' and Dr. Becker's great mentor. And, true to his faith in the fundamental principles of osteopathy, Dr. Becker did not focus on simply relieving symptoms in his patients. Instead, he recognized the health within the patient and facilitated the release of whatever impediments there existed to free and full, healthy functioning within them. This book includes Dr. Becker's view of the philosophy and principles of osteopathy as well as many

The Stillness of Life: The Osteopathic Philosophy of Rollin E. Becker, DO
The Stillness of Life: The Osteopathic Philosophy of Rollin E. Becker, DO reveals the deep thinking and insights of a remarkable osteopathic practitioner and teacher. This book is a collection of his more personal communication and teachings, including ideas he was not comfortable to freely share in public at the time. Dr. Rollin Becker (1910-1996) ceaselessly pursued his own understanding of health and healing in the context of his lifelong practice of 'cranial osteopathy.' Following in the path of Drs. A.T. Still, the founder of osteopathy, and W.G. Sutherland, the developer of 'osteopathy in the cranial field,' Dr. Becker benefitted generations of students with his teaching, and he continues to do so through his collected works. The contents of The Stillness of Life span a time from 1949 to 1987. They show the development of Dr. Becker's ideas over time and demonstrate his strong commitment to continual observation, reflection, and growth. The material covers a broad range of

Paula Modersohn-becker
An accessible introduction to the life and work of this trailblazing pioneer of early modernism, published to coincide with a major exhibition at the Royal Academy, London. Paula Modersohn-Becker is today hailed as one of the great pioneers of modernism. When she died in 1907 at the age of just 31, she had completed more than 700 paintings and 1,000 drawings and prints. Despite selling only a few paintings during her lifetime, her distinct style, daring subject matter and perseverance in overcoming barriers to women left a significant artistic mark on the brief epoch between the old and the new, and paved the way for the German avant-garde. Uwe M. Schneede, one of the foremost experts on Modersohn-Becker's work, shows how the artist translated her life's experiences into her own, very distinctive, pictorial language. He focuses in particular on her time in Paris, where she absorbed the luminous palette and expressive brushwork of the French avantgarde, and which so strongly impacted her ambitions and artistic trajectory. Schneede's lively narrative is supported by some 120 illustrations, and peppered throughout with quotations from Modersohn's letters and diaries.
Paula Modersohn-Becker
This exhibition catalog considers the work of a pioneering artist who subverted conventions in her bold depictions of the nude, self-portraits, and still-lives. An iconoclast in her own time, Modersohn-Becker is today considered an icon of modernity. Throughout her career, Paula Modersohn-Becker boldly experimented with styles while steadfastly pursuing the truth of everyday life and her own female experience. This monograph looks at the entire spectrum of her work-figure drawings, still-lifes, self-portraiture, landscape, nudes, and portraits of young girls and old women-to illustrate the evolution of an artist reacting to seismic cultural change at the turn of the nineteenth century. Whether she was embracing or subverting the principles of realism, naturalism, impressionism, symbolism, or expressionism, Modersohn-Becker remained interested in issues of identity, peeling away outer layers to uncover what she understood as the true essence of life. This book features numerous
