But there were tricks that I learned about getting books from publishers. 2/x
I've gotten a few questions about this, so let me clarify and provide as much helpful information as this medium will allow.
To begin, both of my parents are MBA's and are assertive. They taught us four kids to be assertive. 1/x
Many underestimate the generosity of (most) publishers. I probably got $10,000 worth of free books during my 4 years in Durham by request exam or review copies. Sometimes, I just emailed a publisher and said, "I need this book, but I can't afford it. Can you help me out?"

But there were tricks that I learned about getting books from publishers. 2/x
Some (like JHS) have no word limits, b/c they're online.
Some (like Vetus Testamentum) will happily publish 100 word reviews and 2,500 word review essays. 8/x
Fortress: Don't bother unless you get a review editor to get the book for you.
Routledge: I'm still waiting on them to reply to an email from 4 years ago. So I don't try. 11/x
Yale: They've made me jump through some crazy hoops to get books. I've had luck getting exam copies. 12/x
IVP: Not sure. They don't publish in Germany, so I've been able to get some ebooks, but nothing in print. 13/x
Westminster/John Knox: Not generous. You can sometimes convince them to give you a temporary digital copy.
OUP/CUP: You better know where the review will be published. If you do, then you have a good chance. 14/x
Eerdmans: They are generous, but their generosity has limits of how many exam copies you can get in a year. 15/x
Lexham: Very generous.
SBL: haven't tried.
Eisenbrauns: They are a very small press and not super generous. You have to be submitting to a high level journal. 16/x
Peter Lang: I don't bother asking anymore. They've always said no, unless it was the journal asking for me. 17/x
Mohr Siebeck: Also VERY generous. I've never been denied a request.
V&R: Less generous, but I've had recent luck since my PhD was completed. I told them exactly where the review will go. 18/x
Notre Dame UP: I stopped trying. I had luck once. But as I recall, they work very slowly.
Baylor Press: They are another small press that has to be careful with how many books they give away. Best to go through your review editor. 19/x
JPS: Never had luck with them either, unless the journal already had received the book from the publisher and the journal sent it to me.
Peeters: No luck there either. I suspect I'd have to go through the review editor. 20/x

We had a conversation on the podcast about the racialization of dog breeds, where we talked to @BronwenDickey, the author of Pitbull: The Battle Over an American Icon.
In the 1930s, Pitbulls — which, as Bronwen pointed out to me over and over, don’t constitute a dog breed but a shape — used to be seen as the trusty sidekick of the proletariat, the Honda Civic of canines. (Think of “the Little Rascals” dog.)
.
That began changing in the postwar years and the rise of the suburbs. A pedigreed dog became a status symbol for the burgeoning white middle class. And pitbulls got left behind in the cities.
Aside: USians have flitted between different “dangerous” breeds and media-fueled panics around specific dogs. (anti-German xenophobia in the late 1800s fueled extermination programs of the spitz, a little German dog that newspapers said was vicious and spread disease.)
Some previously “dangerous” dogs get rebranded over the years — German shepherds, Dobermans, Rottweilers. But the thing their respective periods of contempt and concern had to do is that they were associated with some contemporarily undesirable group.

So friends here is the thread on the recommended pathway for new entrants in the stock market.
Here I will share what I believe are essentials for anybody who is interested in stock markets and the resources to learn them, its from my experience and by no means exhaustive..
First the very basic : The Dow theory, Everybody must have basic understanding of it and must learn to observe High Highs, Higher Lows, Lower Highs and Lowers lows on charts and their
Even those who are more inclined towards fundamental side can also benefit from Dow theory, as it can hint start & end of Bull/Bear runs thereby indication entry and exits.
Next basic is Wyckoff's Theory. It tells how accumulation and distribution happens with regularity and how the market actually
Dow theory is old but

THREAD PART 1.
On Sunday 21st June, 14 year old Noah Donohoe left his home to meet his friends at Cave Hill Belfast to study for school. #RememberMyNoah💙
He was on his black Apollo mountain bike, fully dressed, wearing a helmet and carrying a backpack containing his laptop and 2 books with his name on them. He also had his mobile phone with him.
On the 27th of June. Noah's naked body was sadly discovered 950m inside a storm drain, between access points. This storm drain was accessible through an area completely unfamiliar to him, behind houses at Northwood Road. https://t.co/bpz3Rmc0wq
"Noah's body was found by specially trained police officers between two drain access points within a section of the tunnel running under the Translink access road," said Mr McCrisken."
Noah's bike was also found near a house, behind a car, in the same area. It had been there for more than 24 hours before a member of public who lived in the street said she read reports of a missing child and checked the bike and phoned the police.
