  An Overview of the Book 
  We already see the impact of emerging technologies on our lives and the economy in many different ways, particularly when it comes to the way we live our lives and the way we work. Due to this, there is fierce competition among companies across the globe in order to ensure that they are able to benefit from the new technological developments. Globally, the United States and Asia are emerging as the two global leaders in this area. Over the years, there has been a significant change in the landscape of emerging technologies since Alan Turing first asked in the 1950s if machines could think like humans. Emerging technologies will enhance economic growth and efficiency in the future. It is possible to greatly improve decision-making when large amounts of data are analysed by improving efficiency. It is likely that new products and services, new markets, and new industries will be created as a result, which will in turn boost consumer demand and generate new revenue streams. On the other hand, emerging technologies may also have a profound effect on society and the economy.

  Medications such as Vioxx and procedures such as vertebroplasty for back pain are among the medical "advances" that turned out to be dangerous or useless. What Dr. Vinayak K. Prasad and Dr. Adam S. Cifu call medical reversal happens when doctors start using a medication, procedure, or diagnostic tool without a robust evidence base—and then stop using it when it is found not to help, or even to harm, patients.In Ending Medical Reversal, Drs. Prasad and Cifu narrate fascinating stories from every corner of medicine to explore why medical reversals occur, how they are harmful, and what can be done to avoid them. They explore the difference between medical innovations that improve care and those that only appear to be promising. They also outline a comprehensive plan to reform medical education, research funding and protocols, and the process for approving new drugs that will ensure that more of what gets done in doctors' offices and hospitals is truly effective.

  Time is a fascinating subject and one which affects our lives in many ways.  
  This book covers a lot of aspects of the subject. 
  First, how did measurements of time like seconds, minutes, hours, and years develop? 
  Next, what is the history of timekeeping mechanisms from ancient water clocks, to mechanical mechanisms, atomic clocks, and much more. 
  Lastly, what are some of the stranger aspects or anomalies of time such as premonitions, how time and space work, and possible time travel stories. 
  And philosophical questions like: Does the future already exist? 
  I wanted this book to be a comprehensive volume on time and so included lots of different stories and understandings about time which indicate we may not fully understand it yet.

  Reclaiming the Sacred: Healing...

  GRAND PRIZEWINNER -- 2023 Nautilus Book Award 
  "This book is profound... A must-read... Five stars." --Reader's Favorite 
  “Masterful… uplifting…” –Self Publishing Review 
  “Many books promise to change a person’s life. This one actually might.” –IndieReader 
  One of the essential books of our time, Reclaiming the Sacred draws on the work of thousands of psychologists and economists, cosmologists and activists, saints and poets, to ground us in our inherent joy, purpose, and belonging—both for our own sakes and the sake of the world. 
  It starts with an overview of the science of happiness, highlighting the things that most nourish human well-being—and some that don’t, most notably money and possessions. It goes on to examine the ways money nonetheless hooks so many of us, and the profound consequences our materialism has for us and the world—most critically the global climate crisis. 
  And then it goes beyond all of that, diving into the very heart of ourselves and the world, taking us on an exhilarating journey—both scientific and mystical—of reclaiming the sacredness of ourselves and this gorgeous world. This book elevates our existence, and lays an essential foundation for transcending this most critical era in human history.
