Humanity is under assault from pandemics but not for the reasons that the mainstream sources portray. This book examines the claims regarding alleged “contagious” disease outbreaks such as COVID-19 to shed more light on what they are, or perhaps more importantly, what they are not. The belief that germs from the natural environment (or a laboratory) are attacking us has led most of the population to go along with lockdowns, civil rights restrictions, unprecedented peacetime censorship and more vaccines.

The American health insurance system is anything but simple to maneuver. Health plan enrollees become entangled in an intricate and opaque maze of confusion, often resulting in frustration, regret, and deep debt. Health plan and health care technology veteran Marc S. Ryan seeks to demystify the US health care system, helping Americans become wiser consumers and allowing them to navigate the maze with more confidence and certainty. Using his decades of experience, Marc outlines a bipartisan blueprint to transform America’s unique system without upending the employer-based system.

Caregivers need care, too. Nurses are some of the hardest-working people around. Our jobs are demanding in so many ways, both physical and mental.

It’s no surprise that burnout is a common phenomenon. Nurse Burnout is a guidebook for healthcare professionals who are experiencing stress, anxiety, and lack of resilience.

With their broad shoulders and muscular frames, the Rottweiler is a large breed of dog that has undeservedly earned a reputation for being scary, intimidating, and aggressive. However, they can actually be incredibly goofy and friendly, acting more like clowns than protectors.

In The Long Fix, physician and health-care CEO Vivian S. Lee, MD, cuts to the heart of the health-care crisis. The problem with the way medicine is practiced, she explains, is not so much who's paying, it's what we are paying for. Insurers, employers, the government, and individuals pay for every procedure, prescription, and lab test, whether or not it makes us better - and that is both backward and dangerous.

One in ten American adults tried intermittent fasting last year, and they may be on to something. The latest research shows that fasting repairs cellular damage, improves the outcomes for chemotherapy patients, and helps with keeping a healthy weight, leading to a resurgence in recent years.

A fascinating account of the world’s most famous disease - polio - told as you have never heard it before. Epidemics of paralysis began to rage in the early 1900s, seemingly out of nowhere. Doctors, parents, and health officials were at a loss to explain why this formerly unheard-of disease began paralyzing so many children.

Until very recently, if you were to ask most doctors, they would tell you there were only two kinds of medicine: the quack kind, and the evidence-based kind. The former is baseless, and the latter based on the best information human effort could buy. Well, Eric Topol isn't most doctors, and he suggests you entertain the notion of a third kind of medicine, one that will make the evidence-based state-of-the-art stuff look scarcely better than an alchemist trying to animate a homunculus in a jar.

Over the past 50 years, rates of autoimmunity and chronic disease have exploded. In this provocative book, Dr. Thomas Cowan argues for a direct causal relationship to a corresponding increase in the number of vaccines American children typically receive.

Cowan looks at emerging evidence that certain childhood illnesses are actually protective of disease later in life.
