  “Bell and Cortese clearly articulate the central importance of leadership to achieving high value, patient-centric health and wellness . . . compelling.”—William B. Rouse, PhD, author of Understanding and Managing the Complexity of Healthcare   Healthcare in America is wildly inconsistent and uncomfortably close to bankruptcy, and the only way it can be rescued is with leaders in all the different areas of healthcare stepping up with the right kind of leadership. The problem is that they don’t realize the importance of their leadership, and even when they do, they don’t know how to lead. Rescuing Healthcare shows them (and the rest of us) why it’s so important that they do step up, and—the critical ingredient—it shows them how to exercise the right kind of leadership—whatever their role or contribution. And for the rest of us as consumers, it shows us what we should be expecting . . . and demanding. The goal of this book, then, is nothing less than the salvation and transformation of healthcare.  “One of America’s most eminent medical executives and a highly-regarded thought leader in leadership have given us a masterful overview of healthcare leadership and how to improve it. Rescuing Healthcare gets straight to the point, with a sharp diagnosis of our ills and a clear vision of where healthcare needs to go. Drawing on a lifetime of experience, Dr. Cortese and Antony Bell offer a detailed strategy to unite your organization around a common purpose, improve patient care, and succeed in a value-based environment.” —Toby Cosgrove, MD, CEO and President, Cleveland Clinic

  Imagine you are a former mob boss who used to make money disappear. What would your best advice be for doing legit business with no consequences? 
  By age 24, charming mob boss Michael Franzese was one of the wealthiest people on Fortune magazine’s survey. As one of the rare people who quit the mob and lived to tell about it, Franzese has a unique perspective on how business is done. 
  One thing he noticed is that inside the mob business, there are ways to make millions per week. If you apply these same principles outside of organized crime, then people will believe in your product or service more than ever before. 
  In I’ll Make You an Offer You Can’t Refuse, Franzese shares key mafia rules that are applicable to business today such as:Mob Rule # 4: Be an Early Riser and Avoid Getting Killed in Your PajamasMob Rule # 5: Ya Gotta Have a CrewMob Rule # 7: Cook the Pasta, Not the Books 
  Franzesse uses an interesting dichotomy of Machiavelli, the patron saint of Organized Crime and King Solomon, the wisest king ever appointed by the Almighty, to highlight universal principles of business. 
  I’ll Make You an Offer You Can’t Refuse is essential reading for burgeoning entrepreneurs, business people and anyone interested in leadership.

  What if everything you've learned about inflation is wrong? The Inflation Myth and the Wonderful World of Deflation illustrates our rapidly changing world where constant technological innovation leads to cheaper and better products. These changes are no longer reflected in the ways we measure inflation. Renowned investor and author Mark Mobius persuasively argues that what we believe to know about inflation today does not reflect the reality any longer. It is a myth, a legend, a fable, and, yes, a falsehood for a number of reasons.   The Inflation Myth and the Wonderful World of Deflation tackles a number of fascinating topics, including: ● The political nature of inflation measurement where governments manipulate and exploit inflation numbers to fit their economic programs  ● The extreme difficulty involved in gathering accurate data to measure inflation and the resulting inaccuracy of those measures ● The error of using currencies to measure inflation when those currencies are continually being debased by the governments who issue them ● Finally, and most importantly, the advances in technology and automation which are leading to continuously falling costs for goods and services
