Summary

"Digital Wallets" presents a comprehensive exploration of how mobile technology and financial services are converging to revolutionize global payments, with digital wallet transactions now exceeding $6.5 trillion annually. The book skillfully navigates through the evolution of digital payment systems, from their humble beginnings in the 1990s to today's sophisticated platforms that integrate banking, investments, and cryptocurrency capabilities.

 
Through a well-structured progression of technical fundamentals, security protocols, regulatory frameworks, and economic implications, readers gain a thorough understanding of this transformative technology. The narrative masterfully weaves together three core themes: technical evolution, changing consumer behavior, and regulatory considerations. Using real-world examples from industry leaders like Apple Pay, Google Wallet, and Alipay, the book illustrates how digital wallets have evolved beyond simple payment tools to become comprehensive financial management platforms.

 
The analysis is particularly valuable for its blend of technical depth and accessibility, making complex concepts understandable without sacrificing essential details. What sets this book apart is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting financial technology with behavioral economics, cybersecurity, and public policy. The authors draw from extensive research, including proprietary industry reports and expert interviews, to support their central argument that digital wallets represent not just a technological advancement, but a fundamental reorganization of financial services.

 
For fintech professionals, banking executives, and business strategists, the book offers practical insights while acknowledging the dynamic nature of this rapidly evolving field.

    During a year on sabbatical from his university position, Matthew Batt realized he needed money—fast—and it just so happened that one of the biggest breweries in the Midwest was launching a restaurant and looking to hire. So it was that the forty-something tenured professor found himself waiting tables at a high-end restaurant situated in a Minneapolis brewery. And loving it. 
     
     
     
    Telling the story of Batt's early work in restaurants, The Last Supper Club then details his experiences at the fine dining restaurant, a job that continued well past his sabbatical. 
     
     
     
    The Last Supper Club reveals the ups and downs of a waiter's workday and offers an insightful perspective on what makes a job good, bad, or great. For Batt, this job turns out to be considerably more fun, and possibly more rewarding, than his academic career, and his insider's view of waiting tables extols the significance of our food and the places where we gather to enjoy it—or serve it. 
     
     
     
    Told with sharp humor, humility, and a keen sense of what matters, The Last Supper Club is an ode to life in a high-pressure restaurant, the relationships that get you to the night's close, and finding yourself through the chaos of it all.

    This book consists of two titles: 
    1 - Chemical engineering is a multidisciplinary field that integrates principles from chemistry, physics, mathematics, and economics to tackle complex challenges across a diverse range of industries. At its core, chemical engineers focus on efficiently harnessing, transforming, and transporting chemicals, materials, and energy on a large scale. This involves not only designing and optimizing processes but also understanding the fundamental properties of substances and the underlying mechanisms governing their behavior. 
    One of the primary areas of focus for chemical engineers is process design and optimization. They develop innovative processes for the production of chemicals, fuels, pharmaceuticals, and materials, striving to maximize efficiency, minimize waste, and ensure safety. This often involves breaking down complex systems into manageable unit operations, such as distillation, reaction kinetics, heat transfer, and separation techniques, which are then studied and optimized individually to achieve specific goals within a larger process framework. 
    2 - Mechanical technology encompasses a broad spectrum of techniques and tools used in the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. This field merges principles from physics, engineering, and materials science to create and improve machinery and devices that perform specific functions.

    Healthcare is one of the most essential pillars of modern society, yet it remains one of the most controversial and deeply flawed systems worldwide. While medical advancements have saved countless lives, the way healthcare is structured and delivered often leaves patients struggling with high costs, limited access, and inconsistent quality of care. The system, which is supposed to heal and protect, frequently feels more like a business prioritizing profit over people.  
      
    Across the globe, healthcare models vary significantly. Some countries provide universal healthcare, ensuring that all citizens have access to medical services without financial hardship. Others rely on privatized, insurance-based systems that leave many individuals burdened with medical debt or forced to forgo necessary treatments. Regardless of the model, most systems share a common problem—inefficiencies, corruption, and a lack of patient-centered care.  
      
    One of the most alarming aspects of modern healthcare is its commercialization. In many nations, medical treatment has become a commodity rather than a fundamental human right. Pharmaceutical companies, insurance providers, and hospital networks have turned healthcare into a multi-trillion-dollar industry, often at the expense of those who need it most. Prescription drug prices skyrocket without justification, insurance policies are riddled with loopholes designed to deny coverage, and hospitals charge exorbitant fees for basic services. Instead of prioritizing patient well-being, financial incentives drive medical decisions, sometimes leading to unnecessary procedures, overprescription of medications, and inequitable access to care.

  • Minding the Climate - How Neuroscience Can Help Solve Our Environmental Crisis - cover

    Minding the Climate - How...

    If we believe the climate crisis is real, why is it so difficult to change our behavior and our consumer tendencies? 
     
     
     
    Minding the Climate investigates this problem in the neuroscience of decision-making. Ann-Christine Duhaime, MD, points to the evolution of the human brain during eons of resource scarcity. The brain adapted to prioritize short-term survival over more uncertain long-term outcomes. But the resulting behavioral architecture is poorly suited to the present, when scarcity is a lesser concern and slow-moving challenges like environmental issues present the greatest danger. Duhaime details how even our acknowledged best interests are thwarted by the brain's reward system: if a behavior isn't perceived as immediately beneficial, we probably won't do it—never mind that we "know" we should. 
     
     
     
    Luckily, we can sway our brains, and those of others, to alter our behaviors. Duhaime describes concrete, achievable interventions that have been shown to encourage our neurological circuits to embrace new rewards. Such small, incremental steps that individuals take, whether in their roles as consumers, in the workplace, or in leadership positions, are necessary to mitigate climate change. The more we understand how our tendencies can be overridden by our brain's capacity to adapt, Duhaime argues, the more likely we are to have a future.
