The Wizards

This is the untold story of the small group of men who have devised the plans and shaped the policies on how to use the Bomb. The book (first published in 1983) explores the secret world of these strategists of the nuclear age and brings to light a chapter in American political and military history never before revealed.

This disruptive book shows that most people–even wealthy investors–put their trust in a demonstrably inferior way to invest: actively managed funds and private portfolios. The better way is with index funds–but not just any index funds. Instead, this book will introduce you to the One-Decision funds, a type of index fund that market data show is the smartest way to invest.

Nita and Kit return from their wizardly holiday, looking forward to getting back to their everyday routine. But there's trouble brewing.

Nita and Kit return from their wizardly holiday and are looking forward to getting back to their everyday routine. But there's trouble brewing. A strange darkness of the mind and heart is about to befall the older wizards of the world, stealing away their power. Soon the young wizards of Earth and many other planets find themselves forced to defend wizards and nonwizards alike against an invasion of a kind they've never imagined. But mere defense won't be enough to combat the evil afoot. With their alien teammates, Nita, Kit, and Dairine must race to search worlds known and unknown for the secret weapon the Powers that Be have promised them, before the minions of the sinister Lone Power find it first. And then, for the first time in millennia, the wizards must go to war.
