Imagine

John Lennon's Imagine is widely regarded as one of the great, maybe the greatest, anthems for peace, as are many of his other songs, notably Happy Christmas (War is Over) and Give Peace a Chance. This is the story of how John's memory and spirit could affect the current geopolitical scene. Or is it the man himself?! And so it's a story about peace and about characters as diverse as they are numerous: Arthur Williams, successful businessman; Dave Conley, White House staffer; Laura Sparrow, the world's top female pop act and Arthur's wife; Joe Marcello, her manager; Stacey, Joe's wife and Hideki Yokobori, the most influential music man in Japan. Join them as they navigate through the White House to Iraq and Afghanistan and blend good old-fashioned capitalism, pop music's top acts and the President and his cabinet in a tale of success and fame, greed, infidelity, disappointment and a mysterious and delightful British Foreign Minister.

This is Paul Diesel's third book, the first being the investing primer, If You Can't Even Spell Muney or Investmants, This Book is for You. The second, released in March and so far quite popular, is Imagine. It's about what pop musicians just might be able to do to end today's wars. So, of course, the story continues John Lennon's quest for world peace. Or is it the man himself?! Paul graduated from Trinity College and Harvard Business School. He enjoyed a successful career in financial services and then taught marketing and finance for ten years at Bentley University. As you will gather from this book, Paul enjoys a good laugh. He lives in Scituate, MA and devotes his time to his children, Caroline and Will, to investing, speaking about investing and, of course, to writing. He can be reached at paul.diesel@yahoo.com.
