Entrepreneurs are born to disrupt—but disrupting established industries like healthcare is no small feat. Drawing from her twenty-plus years of experience as a founder and business leader, Kara Trott reveals her secret sauce to succeeding in a field that’s notoriously resistant to innovation. A former lawyer turned accidental entrepreneur, Kara founded Quantum Health in 1999, spearheading healthcare navigation—and a new industry in the process.

Story
Вопросы старости и смерти всегда занимали важное место в исследованиях Мечникова. В своем труде "Этюды о природе человека" известный биолог в простой и изящной форме рассказывает о жизни и смерти живых существ, о строении тела человека и возможных причинах старения, о достоинствах, недостатках и "дисгармониях" человеческого организма, и о возможностях, которые изначально в нем заложены и должны помогать бороться со старостью, словно с любой другой болезнью.

Story
In Change Is Possible, public health legend William H. Foege and five coauthors chronicle the failures and successes of global health through the modern age, including the massive impacts of colonialism, religious groups, philanthropies, politics, NGOs, and more. Foege, who has served in local, national, and international public health contexts is uniquely qualified to reflect on the history of global health. He and his Rollins School of Public Health coauthors explain why colonialism has been the greatest disaster for global health, whereas military medicine may have been its greatest asset.

Story
В книге мы последуем за развитием медицинской теории, из которой за тысячелетия выросла сегодняшняя медицина — рациональная, доказательная, с ее высокими технологиями и статистикой. Чтобы увидеть разные этапы развития этого знания, потребуется заглянуть в греческие святилища Асклепия и в арабские больницы-бимаристаны, в богатые дома, окруженные садами, и в жилища простых горожан, какую бы веру они ни исповедовали. – Средневековые взгляды на причины различных заболеваний. – Исторические формы профилактики болезней. – Методы лечения больных и средневековые больницы. – Борьба с эпидемиями.

Story
Most histories of wounded Civil War veterans construe them as feminized men whose manhood has suffered due to their inability to provide for and raise families or engage in business. Wounded for Life complicates this picture by examining how seven veterans—six soldiers and one physician—coped with their changed bodies in their postwar lives. Through these intimate stories, author Robert D. Hicks looks at the veteran's body as shaped by the trauma of the battlefield and hospital and the construction of a postwar identity in relation to that trauma.

Story
For the last two centuries, groups of influential men have, in the professed interest of fiscal responsibility, crime reduction, and outright racism, attempted to control who was allowed to bear children. Their efforts, "eugenics," characterize a movement that over the last century swept across the world—from the US to Brazil, Japan, India, Australia, and beyond—in the form of marriage restrictions, asylum detention, and sterilization campaigns affected millions. German physicians and scientists adopted and then heightened these eugenics practices beginning in 1939.

Richard Schweid examines home health care in detail, focusing on the women who tend to our elderly and disabled loved ones and how we fail to value their work. They are paid minimum wage so that we might be absent, getting on with our own lives. The book calls for a rethinking of home health care and explains why changes are urgent: the current system offers neither a good way to live nor a good way to die.

Story
It’s hard today to remember how recently cancer was a silent killer, a dreaded disease about which people rarely spoke in public. In hospitals and doctors’ offices, conversations about malignancy were hushed and hope was limited. In this deeply researched book, Elaine Schattner reveals a sea change—from before 1900 to the present day—in how ordinary people talk about cancer. From Whispers to Shouts examines public perception of cancer through stories in newspapers and magazines, social media, and popular culture.

To paraphrase the great sci-fi writer Stephen King: Kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your heart, kill your darlings. Translation: stay on point and mercilessly avoid side stories and anecdotes. With much respect for Mr. King, The History of Man Series is precisely that, a great deal about all those little darlings, a style of writing termed “jumping off.”

У мамы — болит, у соседки — болит, у коллег на работе — тоже болит. Ну и у меня болит, чего же тут странного? Многие свыклись с тем, что головная боль — это часть их жизни. И не воспринимают ее как заболевание, которое можно и нужно лечить. Одна из задач этой книги — объяснить, что если голова болит, то это ненормально, это какое-то заболевание (к счастью, в большинстве случаев неопасное). И что не стоит терпеть эту боль, принимая обезболивающие через день. Можно себе помочь и значительно повысить качество своей жизни другими способами.
