A plain text in transliteration of the Linear B tablets from Knossos. Since the first publication of these tablets in 1952, various scholars worked to improve the texts. The results of their researches were published in successive editions of The Knossos Tablets: A Transliteration. This 1971 fourth edition completely replaced the third of 1964. It contains the texts of many fragments previously discarded as unreadable, and several hundred improved texts resulting from joins between fragments. In addition, the original of every tablet has been closely scrutinised and numerous improvements in the readings have been made. The system of classification has been modified, and many more tablets are now assigned to series, and for the first time there was an attempt to reconstruct the original filing system of the archive. The scribal hand is noted where it can be identified. The book is indispensable for all scholars who wish to work directly on this material.
John Chadwick is a renowned Finance/Banking Executive, Entrepreneur, and Author who enjoys guiding others towards attaining new levels of financial literacy and fruitful independence. As the Managing Director for a global bank, John holds an extensive 25+ year history involving the intricacies of money/business management and inspiring healthy mindset shifts beyond standard education, and takes pride in leveraging that dynamicity to prove anyone can achieve their own definition of success with the right tools, support, and splashes of motivation. Currently based in NYC with his amazing wife, whom he has started several businesses with, John discovered early on just how disconnected formal education was at preparing society for real-world success. Upon earning a BA and MA in Business Administration, John spent the next two decades figuring out adulthood and overcoming hurdles that were never brought up in the classroom. But with perseverance, he soon became a (now former) franchise owner, built a real estate holding company, and is the Managing Director at one of the world's largest financial institutions. Even more, has since blended those experiences to help guide all walks of life attain the financially balanced futures they deserve while spearheading the wealth-building game along the way. When John is not working, you can usually find him snow skiing, traveling internationally, scuba diving, staying active, practicing the art of mindfulness, and above all, spending time with his biggest supporter - his wife.
