  No Country for Old Age -...

  Since the birth of their nation, Americans have acted on the belief that theirs was a land of youth, a place destined to offer a fresh start to an aging world. No Country for Old Age tells this story from the founding period to our present moment, but not without exposing its darker side: rejuvenation has often bred grand expectations that end in division and despair. 
   
   
   
  Mischa Honeck reveals how Americans of diverse backgrounds have sought not only to feel and look younger but also to breathe new life into their communities. Whether marching under the banners of science, public health, sexual liberation, physical fitness, nation-building, or world peace, these youth seekers have tended to paint their ventures in utopian colors. However, from the founders to today's Silicon Valley elites, anti-aging ventures have repeatedly magnified social inequalities, often projecting visions of society that have been unmistakably classist, racist, misogynist, and ageist. Today we are experiencing rejuvenation's Janus-faced legacy: As transhumanists rhapsodize about cyber-enhancing human bodies, ghastly pandemics, old-age poverty, and shrinking life expectancies are poised to become the new normal for many twenty-first-century Americans.

  This thought-provoking collection of original material, translated from Russian includes interviews with Dr. Buteyko covering the development of his ideas from 1962 to 1998 and his main CEOB (Conscious Elimination of Deep Breathing) manual. It is important because it provides insight into the power of his method when used by trained practitioners, especially in a clinical setting. 
  He saw breathing as a fundamental measurable parameter in the treatment of 150 common diseases and because of his disciplined scientific research he never allowed it to be considered simply an alternative asthma treatment' as it is often now perceived in the West. With trained practitioners and Breathing clinics it would result in a profound improvement in the health of millions of people suffering from many different conditions throughout the world. 
  Here is a summary of the main chapters: 
  1. 1962 interview while he was Head of a functional Diagnostics laboratory within the Siberian branch of the USSR Academy of Science. 
  2. 1982 interview covers the development of his theoretical ideas and practical work in further detail. 
  3. Large practical guide (CEOB Breath Retraining Manual) showing his systematic approach to 'the Conscious Elimination of Deep Breathing' in sick patients in a clinical setting. 
  4. 1997 Buteyko answers questions by callers on a public radio program. 
  5. Interview with a Siberian newspaper in 1998 when he was 75 where he talks about his work and medical and spiritual perspective. 
  6. Interview on Ukrainian Television in the late 1980s with a detailed restating of his work where he advocates for breathing retraining centers in Ukraine and Russia. 
  The book's approximate length is 35,000 words.

  Health-care providers and their patients are human, and all humans have unconscious biases that affect how we listen, observe, and act. Bias impacts patients when they are at their most vulnerable. Health-care bias can mean the difference not just between suffering and relief, but between life and death. 
   
   
   
  For the first time, an author with the unique perspective of being one of America's top doctors, a woman, and Black, candidly addresses the issue of bias in health care, sharing personal and patient stories and pragmatic solutions. Dr. Angela Marshall, repeatedly named a "Top Doctor" by Washingtonian magazine, draws on extensive research, poignant stories from some of the thousands of patients she has treated, and her own compelling personal experience, to examine the bias from both patients' and health-care providers' points of view. She offers a bold blueprint for change, filled with fresh solutions that can help everyone in our health-care system. 
   
   
   
  Dismissed not only explains what so many people feel so profoundly—that the system is working against them. It also reveals what health-care practitioners, patients, and society in general can do to make it right.
