Despite the understandable urge to leave the pandemic behind, Comeau proves that sometimes looking back can not only be therapeutic ... it might offer exactly the perspective we all need to continue to move forward too."  
    - Rohit Bhargava, WSJ Bestselling Author of Non-Obvious Thinking + Non-Obvious Megatrends 
    During the early stages of coronavirus, Amy Moudy Comeau, MBA, an award-winning and acclaimed marketing executive, began writing weekly emails to her Emory Healthcare marketing team every Friday, as a form of encouragement and support to get them through eight weeks of shelter-in-place, which turned into a three-year pandemic.

Years later, these time-stamped entries, along with present-day commentary from the author giving insight and hindsight reflections on the pandemic, leadership, self-care and marketing, provide a unique snapshot back into those “unprecedented” days of the pandemic.

    Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of eye diseases and disorders. It encompasses the care of the eyes, as well as vision, including conditions that affect the ability to see clearly. As one of the most specialized fields of healthcare, ophthalmology combines elements of surgery, medical diagnosis, and therapeutic care. The eye is an intricate organ that plays a crucial role in the way humans experience the world, and ophthalmology seeks to preserve and enhance vision by addressing a wide range of eye-related conditions. 
    The role of ophthalmologists, medical doctors specialized in eye care, is pivotal in maintaining visual health and addressing the complexities of eye diseases. Ophthalmologists undergo years of specialized education and training in both medical and surgical aspects of eye care. They are responsible for providing comprehensive services, ranging from routine eye examinations to advanced surgical procedures such as cataract surgery, glaucoma treatments, and retinal surgeries. Their expertise also extends to diagnosing and managing diseases that affect the entire eye, from the cornea and lens to the retina and optic nerve. 
    Over the centuries, the field of ophthalmology has evolved considerably. Ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians and Greeks, made early attempts to understand the anatomy and function of the eye. However, it was in the 19th and 20th centuries that modern ophthalmology truly began to take shape, with the invention of essential diagnostic tools and surgical techniques. The development of the ophthalmoscope, for example, revolutionized the ability to examine the interior of the eye, leading to more accurate diagnoses. In the following decades, innovations in surgical methods, such as cataract surgery, and advances in treatments for conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration have drastically improved patient outcomes.

    An insider's guide to our broken economy and how it fails to serve us. 
    ‘A fascinating examination of the failures of modern economics, and how these failures are harming us all' Grace Blakeley, author of Vulture Capitalism 
    ‘Easily one of the most compelling economics communicators of our generation.' Yuan Yang, FT columnist and MP for Earley and Woodley 
    Did you know that while we think of money as notes issued by the government, the truth is that the overwhelming majority of money today is credit created by private banks? 
    Did you know that the reason housing keeps getting less accessible is because we haven’t found a way to separate houses from land in our policies? 
    And did you know that far from globalisation being a mystical force, certain countries and currencies have dominated the way it has played out – to their own advantage? 
    Whilst economics is at the heart of the society we live in, governing so many functions from our taxes to where we live to the price of our shopping, few of us have a strong grasp on the subject. This book is here to help. 
    Why We're Getting Poorer delves into the key topics in economics – money, globalisation, inequality, climate change and growth – showing that what we think we know about these things is wrong, and teaching us what we really need to know. Deciphering the jargon and complexity of economic thinking, with examples ranging from the Simpsons to the German football league to The Inbetweeners, Cahal Moran shows us why our economy set us up to fail, and offers suggestions for how we can make positive changes. 
    Written by an award-winning economist and the YouTuber responsible for ‘Unlearning Economics’, Why We're Getting Poorer is a thrilling, iconoclastic guide to how the world really works. 
    Cahal Moran, in his latest work Why We're Getting Poorer, delves into the intricacies of business, finance, and international macroeconomics, shedding light on the political history that has shaped our current economic landscape. This non-fiction piece is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the personal implications of these global trends. 
    For fans of Stephanie Kelton (The Deficit Myth), Ezra Klein (Why We're Polarized), Derek Thompson (Abundance), Rutger Bregman (Utopia for Realists), and Erica Moore (Humankind).
