Summary

When I told my GP that I had just written a new book about particle physics and cosmology, his reaction indicated that this was an area of science he was unfamiliar with. I assured him that I had written �Energy and Everything� for non-scientists; his face lit up, and he was obviously delighted. He was eager to buy a copy when it became available, as he was fascinated by the science, but all the jargon put him off. If this is you, this book is for you. Happy reading!

    What if the healthcare system was never truly built to make you healthy? 
     
    In The System Doesn’t Sell Health, physician-scientist and healthcare strategist Christopher Voss pulls back the curtain on the hidden design of modern medicine—and reveals why America keeps paying more, getting less, and growing sicker in the process. 
     
    This is not just a book about policy. It is a wake-up call. 
     
    With the clarity of a frontline physician and the insight of a systems thinker, Voss shows how chronic disease, obesity, exhaustion, poor food environments, employer policies, insurance rules, and broken incentives all collide to create a healthcare system that excels at treating illness but too often fails at building health. 
     
    Bold, timely, and deeply human, this book exposes why staying healthy can feel so hard in America—and what it would take to change that. From the exam room to the boardroom to local government, The System Doesn’t Sell Health offers a powerful new framework for understanding why the system works the way it does, who pays the price, and how we can begin to bend the curve toward prevention, resilience, and real healing. 
     
    If you have ever wondered why healthcare feels so expensive, so confusing, and so reactive, this book will change the way you see it forever.

    CISM is a test of judgment, not button-pushing. This audiobook teaches you to think the way it rewards.Most CISM resources bury the one thing that actually passes the exam: the manager mindset. This course leads with it. Think of CISM as a driving licence for security leadership. It does not prove you can configure a firewall at two in the morning. It proves you can run the fleet and decide where it heads. Every lesson is explained in plain language, the way a patient mentor would over coffee, perfect for learning on your commute, at the gym, or on a walk.What you will master:• The priority ladder the exam secretly tests: governance before tools, risk before quick fixes, business before elegance - Domain 1, Information Security Governance: strategy, tone at the top, roles, and why accountability flows down while assurance flows up - Domain 2, Risk Management: likelihood times impact, qualitative vs quantitative, the four treatment options, and the formulas a manager must recognise - Domain 3, the Security Program: the most heavily weighted domain, covering people, process, technology, frameworks, metrics, and third-party risk - Domain 4, Incident Management: the response lifecycle, severity and escalation, evidence preservation, plus business continuity and disaster recovery - A survival kit finish: the ten reflexes that swing borderline questions, the distractor traps ISACA loves, and a calm exam-day planThis audiobook is for you if you are aiming for the CISM whether your exam is next month or next year, you are a technical person who needs to retrain the reflex to fix things yourself, and you want to understand how a security leader decides rather than just memorise facts. You can start studying today.Press play, and learn to be the calm, organised person in the room who understands risk and chooses the responsible answer.

    How can obedience and carrying out orders lead to horrific acts such as the Holocaust or the genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia, or Bosnia? For the most part, it is a mystery why obeying instructions from an authority can convince people to kill other human beings, sometimes without hesitation and with incredible cruelty. Combining social and cognitive neuroscience with real-life accounts from genocide perpetrators, this book sheds light on the process through which obedience influences cognition and behavior. Emilie Caspar, a leading expert in the field, translates this neuroscientific approach into a clear, uncomplicated explanation, even for those with no background in psychology or neuroscience. By better understanding humanity's propensity for direct orders to short-circuit our own independent decision-making, we can edge closer to effective prevention processes.
