This is the story of the extraordinary family behind one of Ireland's most famous businesses, Dunnes Stores, over three generations and covering nearly 80 years of retailing but going back as far as the 19th century. With drama worthy of the popular TV drama Succession, a real-life Irish family drama shows the children of a dominant founder argue as to who should run the supermarket empire after his death and take the money from it, and how they dealt or not, with addictions and ill health, including alcoholism.

No company embodies the promise and perils of Big Data more than Palantir. Cofounded by Peter Thiel and Alex Karp in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir builds software that ingests vast quantities of data and rapidly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. It is now a $40 billion global colossus whose technology is used by the CIA and the Mossad, by every branch of the US military, by dozens of federal agencies, and by major international corporations like Airbus and British Petroleum.

Few figures in modern history ignite as much admiration, controversy, and curiosity as Elon Musk. A man of grand visions and explosive contradictions, Musk has redefined what it means to be an entrepreneur in the 21st century.

When we look at billionaires like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, or Mark Zuckerberg today, it’s easy to assume they were always destined for greatness. But that’s just not true. The myth of the “overnight success” is exactly that—a myth. Every one of these individuals struggled in the beginning. They faced rejection, made mistakes, worked through setbacks, and doubted themselves more than once. What separated them from the crowd wasn’t that they never failed—it’s that they kept going after they did.

Here is Trump in action—how he runs his organization and how he runs his life—as he meets the people he needs to meet, chats with family and friends, clashes with enemies, and challenges conventional thinking. But even a maverick plays by rules, and Trump has formulated time-tested guidelines for success. He isolates the common elements in his greatest accomplishments; he shatters myths; he names names, spells out the zeros, and fully reveals the deal-maker's art. And throughout, Trump talks—really talks—about how he does it.

Everyone is programmed a little differently, and Bill Gates' unique insight led to business triumphs that are now widely known: the twenty-year-old who dropped out of Harvard to start a software company that became an industry giant and changed the way the world works and lives; the billionaire many times over who turned his attention to philanthropic pursuits to address climate change, global health, and U.S. education.

10万人に１人の稀少がん・ジストを患いながらも、”心の免疫力が上がる言葉”を支えに生きる緩和ケア医・大橋洋平先生。

When planning for the future we often ask, “What will the economy be doing this time next year?” Or, “What will be different ten years from now?” But forecasting is hard. The important events that will shape the future are inherently unpredictable. Instead, we should be asking a different question: What will be the same ten years from now? What will be the same one hundred years from now? Knowledge of the things that never change is more useful, and more important, than an uncertain prediction of an unknowable future.
