In the 16th century, when explorers travelled deep into the jungles of South America in search of gold and spices, they brought back many colourful tales of their adventures.

Life sciences companies deliver the most innovative, life changing products in the world. Period. And yet, when it comes to delivering impactful experiences built around patients and healthcare professionals that leverage omnichannel capabilities to commercialize these therapies, our industry struggles to transform (to put it diplomatically). Why? It's because we never took the time to properly educate ourselves on the basic building blocks of omnichannel capabilities and advanced concepts on customer-driven experiences that address stakeholder needs.

This will be a landmark American non-fiction publication that will make us all think about Black Lives Matter beyond police killings and into every aspect of life, from housing to education to healthcare and help answer urgent questions about the disproportionate deaths from Covid-19 among BAME people.

Wie wollen und werden wir zukünftig arbeiten? Die tradierten Modelle funktionieren nicht mehr: Während die einen von ihrer Erwerbsarbeit kaum leben können, leiden viele Bereiche unter Arbeits- und Fachkräftemangel. Arbeit ist zudem eine Frage der Solidarität: Der Applaus für "systemrelevante Berufe" war von kurzer Dauer, die Care-Arbeit - vor allem von Frauen - hält das System am Laufen, wird aber weder angemessen entlohnt noch gesellschaftlich gewürdigt. Für die "Generation Z" zählt Work-Life-Balance mehr als die 40-Stunden-Woche.

Nothing is more tragic than aging. This book is meant to spread the message that defeating aging is both feasible and desirable.

Human beings have astonishing genetic vulnerabilities. More than half of us will die from complex diseases that trace directly to those vulnerabilities, and the modern world we've created places us at unprecedented risk from them. In It Takes a Genome, Greg Gibson posits a revolutionary new hypothesis: Our genome is out of equilibrium, both with itself and its environment. Simply put, our genes aren't coping well with modern culture.
