Pablo A. Peña

An everyday introduction to the most consequential science of modern life.University of Chicago economist Gary Becker won the Nobel Prize largely for his advancement of human capital theory—the idea that investing in a person’s knowledge and skills has a wide range of economic effects. Becker’s writing on the subject was technical, but his teaching, especially in his famous doctoral course at Chicago, remains legendary for its accessibility, brilliance, and applications to everyday life.In Human Capital for Humans, economist and former Becker student Pablo A. Peña channels this classroom approach to produce an accessible, essential guide to understanding the science that has become synonymous with modern life and the economy. With an illustrative and immersive style, Peña unpacks the human capital approach to domains such as parenting, aging, marriage, health, and household labor. The result is not only intellectually elevated, but an essential introduction for learners and teachers of this subject across business, management, economics, policy, and beyond.

"The Undoing Project" by Michael Lewis explores the collaborative relationship between psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, two brilliant minds who revolutionized the field of behavioral economics. The book delves into their contrasting personalities and approaches to research, highlighting how their individual differences fueled their groundbreaking discoveries about human judgment and decision-making. The narrative traces their journey from their early years in Israel to their influential work in the United States, revealing how their joint efforts exposed the systematic errors and biases in human thinking. It examines the various heuristics and biases that affect decision-making, such as representativeness, availability, and anchoring, and explores how people often deviate from rational thought.

The Omega-Factor - Promoting...

PhD Robert Fried, MD Richard...

Omega-3 fatty acids can limit the inflammation that is the underlying cause of many severe diseases of modern civilization, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The Omega-Factor presents information on the mechanisms whereby inflammation damages organs and the blood vessels serving them, as well as the hard science on the mechanisms by which the omega-3 fatty acids protect those tissues. It also features peer-reviewed evidence from clinical trials on these topics. 
 
 
 
The book gives cutting-edge information from state-of-the-art developments such as the test that can be done to measure the omega-3 status of one's own tissues, the "Omega-3 Index", which can give many years of early warning so that one can take preventive steps and decrease the odds of a heart attack, stroke, or kidney disease. It explains why a Mediterranean diet plan rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids is protective, and it features a six-day meal plan with recipes. This book helps listeners understand the differences between various sources of omega-3 fatty acids. 
 
 
 
The Omega-Factor is an essential resource for healthcare professionals, clinicians, and dietitians, as well as anyone who aims to achieve the goal of a much longer health-span, not just a longer lifespan.
