Inspector Chen and the Private Kitchen Murder (eBook, ePUB)
Chen Cao has been removed from his chief inspector role, but that doesn't stop him investigating a 'private kitchen' murder that has similarities to a Judge Dee story. No longer a chief inspector, Chen Cao finds himself as director of the Shanghai Judicial System Reform Office. To outsiders it's a promotion, but Chen knows he's being removed from the spotlight as he's immediately placed on involuntary 'convalescence leave' to stop him interfering with any cases. However, with various high-profile crimes making headlines and fears escalating over vigilante reprisals, Chen's superiors know he must at least appear active. One case revolves around Min Lihau, a mingyuan, who runs a 'private kitchen' for powerful figures in Shanghai. Min's accused of murdering her assistant, yet Chen is struck by its similarities to a historic case involving the famous Judge Dee. When an acquaintance of his is murdered in connection with Min, Chen knows he can't stand idly by . . . but he must act in secret, under the cover of writing a Judge Dee novel.- Shop: buecher

Chain Reactions. Investigating the Impact of Blockchain on the Sharing Economy
Master's Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: Distinction, University of Warwick, language: English, abstract: The aim of the presented work is to determine common issues of modern concepts of the sharing economy that can be effectively solved through Blockchain applications. Furthermore, a practical framework is provided that addresses the key factors of implementing Blockchain technology in sharing economy concepts. The very essence of the sharing economy pertains to old market principles that are coupled with new interpretations, dimensions, and potential. Driven by socio-economic factors, it revolves around a) conscious consumption in a decentralised manner, b) accessibility over ownership, and c) extraordinary efficiency. Thus, it mirrors a new "zeitgeist" which is dawning in various parts of the world. Since technology is a key enabler of sharing economy concepts, Blockchain stands out as a disintermediating and disruptive technology. The hype among information technology enthusiasts, financial investors and traders brings back memories of the dot-com bubble. One important lesson learned from this was the urgent need to distil viable, beneficial and future-oriented business models.- Shop: buecher
