A Healthy Society offers a new approach to politics–and a new approach to building a healthier world.

È il primo banco e l'ultimo, è il banco di prova. È la scuola, che amiamo e vituperiamo a giorni alterni, sempre considerandola una sorta di mondo a parte, da celebrare in astratto o – troppo spesso – da riformare su basi ideologiche. Ma oggi sta succedendo qualcosa di più. La logica dell'emergenza e il «culto del fenomeno», che stanno affossando il nostro Paese, rischiano di portare allo sfascio anche l'unica istituzione in grado di risollevarlo, ed è tempo di correre ai ripari. Come? Innanzitutto rimettendo al centro gli insegnanti: il ruolo che rivestono, la professionalità che esprimono.

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.

Pulitzer Prize-winning reporting team, husband and wife Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, take us on a journey through Africa and Asia to meet an extraordinary array of exceptional women struggling against terrible circumstances. More girls have been killed in the last fifty years, precisely because they are girls, than men were killed in all the wars of the twentieth century combined. More girls are killed in this routine 'gendercide' in any one decade than people were slaughtered in all the genocides of the twentieth century.

An engaging account of innovation in healthcare and why the results fall short for patients and society. The evolution of the cell phones we carry in our pockets demonstrates that quality can increase while prices fall. Why doesn't healthcare also get better and cheaper? In Why Not Better and Cheaper?, James B. Rebitzer and Robert S. Rebitzer offer an answer to this question. Bringing together research on incentives, social norms, and market competition, they argue that the healthcare system generates the wrong kinds of innovation.

«I giornali e i media parlano solo di temi politicamente corretti. Non si può scherzare più su nulla. Se usi espressioni come "signore e signori" vieni accusato di non essere inclusivo. La famiglia è quella composta da madre e padre, basta con la lobby gay! Viviamo in una dittatura del pensiero unico e nessuno lo dice.» È davvero così? Ogni volta che in Italia si prova a fare un passo avanti nel campo dei diritti civili o si lotta per la difesa o l'empowerment di quelle che definiamo minoranze, qualcuno immediatamente protesta: «Ma non ci sono cose più importanti?».

La crisis de vivienda existe y no podemos seguir ignorándola. Nuestras ciudades son cada vez más inhabitables: cada vez más caras, más distantes, más precarizadas y con menos servicios. Miles de personas están preocupadas por su imposibilidad de adquirir unavivienda en propiedad o, incluso, en arrendamiento. Sin embargo, esta problemática sigue siendo percibida como una preocupación individualizada y no como el problema estructural que realmente es.

Både velfærds- og konkurrencestaten har som analytiske perspektiver og som fungerende statsformer vist sig utilstrækkelige, når det drejer sig om at handle på klima- og biodiversitetskriserne. De to ideologisk konkurrerende statsformer, der både fylder i den offentlige debat og er på pensumlisterne på alle landets læreanstalter, hverken handler eller svarer på de enorme kriser, men er tværtimod med til at forværre dem. Og de politikere, der bebor de gamle statsformer, virker handlingslammede imens protesterne vokser.

On January 22, 1973, the United States Supreme Court released two interlocked abortion decisions overturning the laws of all the individual states. Only one of the decisions, Roe v. Wade, tends to get much media attention, and it is popularly said that it grants a "woman's right to choose". But Justice Blackmun is in several places very adamant: Though it had been explicitly sought, he was not granting to women the "right to choose". In Doe v. Bolton, the second and often unexamined companion decision, Blackmun is explicit. The right he is granting is to the doctor.

As we grapple with the world's worst pandemic for a century, our minds are on our health more than ever. But what should we rightfully expect of doctors? In this original and thought-provoking book, Sir David Haslam explores what good healthcare should achieve and asks how we pay for it. Informed by patient stories and data from across the world—from US big pharma to Britain's NHS—this is an urgent and often moving examination of our most important asset: our health.

Many experts believe that we are at a fulcrum moment in history, a time that demands radical shifts in thinking and policymaking. Calls for bold change are everywhere these days, particularly on social media, but is this actually the best way to make the world a better place? In Gradual, Greg Berman and Aubrey Fox argue that, contrary to the aspirations of activists on both the right and the left, incremental reform is the best path forward.
