The Art and Science of Technical Analysis is a groundbreaking work that bridges the gaps between the academic view of markets, technical analysis, and profitable trading. The book explores why randomness prevails in markets most, but not all, of the time and how technical analysis can be used to capture statistically validated patterns in certain types of market conditions.

Odysseus and the Oar was written for military members, veterans, their loved ones, and those who counsel and serve them.

This is "the archetype of the warrior's return," a phrase coined by Magers that corresponds with the archetypal patterns seen in myths about returning warriors worldwide. Honoring these timeless patterns, Magers argues, is essential for veterans to heal and recover the meaning, vitality, and purpose of their lives.
