Beschreibung

Straw Sips Easy explores the fascinating history of the drinking straw, focusing on the transformative 1888 design that revolutionized beverage consumption. This innovation moved straws from being rudimentary tools to indispensable accessories. Before this pivotal design, straws, often crafted from natural materials like rye grass, could be brittle and impart unwanted flavors, highlighting the significance of this technological advancement. The book examines how this seemingly simple invention influenced social behaviors and industrial practices.

 
 It begins by tracing the straw's origins and then hones in on the 19th-century advancements leading to the 1888 design. Chapters delve into mass production, marketing strategies, and the environmental considerations of straw usage, including the rise of paper straws and debates surrounding plastic alternatives. Drawing on sources like patent records and historical advertisements, the book offers a fact-based narrative that connects to fields like material science and economics. Straw Sips Easy ultimately reveals the hidden complexities and historical significance behind an everyday object, highlighting its role in contemporary society and future innovations.

    The Coming Healthcare Revolution identifies and describes five top-down macro forces and five bottom-up market forces that have sufficient strength to transform the US healthcare industry from the outside-in. The powerful macro forces are demographic determinants, funding fatigue, chronic pandemics, technological imperatives, and pro-consumer/market reforms. The equally powerful market forces are whole health, care redesign, care migration, aggregators' advantage, and empowered caregivers. Written by David Johnson and Paul Kusserow, professional healthcare advisors operating at the intersection of healthcare economics, policy, strategy, and capital formation, this book provides expert insight on how the US healthcare system is becoming cheaper, better, more balanced between prevention and treatment, easier to access, and more empowering for both frontline caregivers and consumers. 
     
     
     
    In this book, listeners will learn about factors leading to rising healthcare costs; US healthcare in comparison to other high-income countries; similarities between the US automobile industry crisis in the 1980s and today's adapt-or-die situation for healthcare providers and suppliers; and how the healthcare industry is reorganizing to decentralize delivery of whole-person health in ways that will improve health outcomes and overall societal health.
