Stuckey encourages us to be aware of our connection with all the life that surrounds us, even in cities. In response to the idea that the world is a community rather than a collection of objects, she poses the question: “How do we interact with the more than human world as equal members of community, rather than trying to treat the world around us as if it was created only to serve human needs?”

Walden (first published as Walden; or, Life in the Woods) is an American book written by noted transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings.  The work is part personal declaration of independence, social experiment, voyage of spiritual discovery, satire, and manual for self-reliance.  First published in 1854, it details Thoreau's experiences over the course of two years, two months, and two days in a cabin he built near Walden Pond, amidst woodland owned by his friend and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson, near Concord, Massachusetts. The book compresses the time into a single calendar year and uses passages of four seasons to symbolize human development. - Summary by Wikipedia

Traditionally, social influence has been something to be studied and guarded against, and this has become even more of a concern recently with the acceleration of modern social media. From Russian trolls posting fake news to sophisticated, artificial-intelligence-led campaigns by Cambridge Analytica, it has become clear that the Trump election and the Brexit referendum were both swayed by deliberate campaigns to manipulate our social selves and change the course of history. But what about the flip side of these powers that influence social behavior? Can we use these same effective techniques to make us happier and healthier? 
Behavioral scientists understand the value of the social world, not just as an object of study, or as the driver for our fears and insecurities. In fact, social influence impacts all of our lives in a variety of positive ways and can be harnessed for even greater good. In this groundbreaking book, the Nudge Unit's Chief Scientist, Michael Sanders, and his deputy Susannah Hume, examine the dark side of social influence, the astonishing reach of social networks, and why we need to reclaim their power to effect positive change in our professional and private lives.

What was it like at the epicenter, inside the health system that cared for more COVID-19 patients than any other in the United States? Leading Through a Pandemic: The Inside Story of Lessons Learned about Innovation, Leadership, and Humanity During the COVID-19Crisis takes readers inside Northwell Health, New York’s largest health system. From the C-suite to the front lines, the book reports on groundwork that positioned Northwell as uniquely prepared for the pandemic.Leading Through a Pandemic offers guidance on how hospitals and health systems throughout the country can prepare more effectively for the next viral threat. The book includes dramatic stories from the front lines at the peak of the viral assault and lessons of what went well, and what did not. The authors draw upon the Northwell experience to prescribe changes in the health care system for next time. Beyond the obvious need for increased stockpiles of supplies and equipment is the far more challenging task of fundamentally changing the culture of American health care to embrace a more robust emergency response capability in hospitals and systems of all sizes across the nation. The book is a must read for health care professionals, policy-makers, journalists, and readers whose curiosity demands a deeper dive into the surreal realm of the coronavirus pandemic.
