The ability of the NHS to continue to perform its historic function as a tax-funded system of universal health coverage, in the face of a growing and ageing population, costly new drugs and technology, increasing incidence of chronic health conditions, staff shortages, and budget constraints is one of the most important policy questions in modern Britain.

Guy Burgess était un membre du Secret Intelligence Service recruté comme agent par les services soviétiques. Il appartenait au groupe d'espions connu sous le nom des Cinq de Cambridge qui trahirent leur pays pendant la guerre froide.

Since its birth in 1948, the powers that be have chipped away at the NHS. Now, Britain's best-loved institution is under greater threat than ever, besieged by a deadly combination of underfunding, understaffing and the predatory private sector. In the wake of the pandemic, we have come to accept a 'new normal' of permanent crisis and years-long waiting lists. But, as Gavin Francis reveals in this short, vital book - it doesn't have to be this way, and until recently, it wasn't.

Per capirlo, è essenziale partire da una comprensione fondamentale, ovvero che noi siamo una realtà energetica, ed esiste un'unica energia vitale che opera attraverso di noi. Come Osho spiega, "è la stessa energia vitale che al livello più basso si manifesta come energia sessuale, e al livello più elevato si manifesta come spirituale. Pertanto, secondo me, non esiste opposizione di sorta, nessun conflitto."
