  “What do you think happens after we die?” has been Elizabeth Earley’s favorite conversation starter since the motorcycle accident that almost killed her. In Little Deaths All in a Row: Essays on Sex and Death, Earley delves into memories of past lovers and offers vivid portraits of the hospice patients she has worked with after recovering from her own near-fatal injuries. Tracing the many connections—philosophical, scientific, ethical, and spiritual—between sex and death, these lyric essays ponder the afterlife, pain and pleasure, quantum entanglement and love, and the “strange and painful goodness of being alive.”

  The Coming Healthcare Revolution identifies and describes five top-down macro forces and five bottom-up market forces that have sufficient strength to transform the US healthcare industry from the outside-in. The powerful macro forces are demographic determinants, funding fatigue, chronic pandemics, technological imperatives, and pro-consumer/market reforms. The equally powerful market forces are whole health, care redesign, care migration, aggregators' advantage, and empowered caregivers. Written by David Johnson and Paul Kusserow, professional healthcare advisors operating at the intersection of healthcare economics, policy, strategy, and capital formation, this book provides expert insight on how the US healthcare system is becoming cheaper, better, more balanced between prevention and treatment, easier to access, and more empowering for both frontline caregivers and consumers. 
   
   
   
  In this book, listeners will learn about factors leading to rising healthcare costs; US healthcare in comparison to other high-income countries; similarities between the US automobile industry crisis in the 1980s and today's adapt-or-die situation for healthcare providers and suppliers; and how the healthcare industry is reorganizing to decentralize delivery of whole-person health in ways that will improve health outcomes and overall societal health.

  'A very British love-letter to the beauty of flint' Daily Telegraph
  Joanne Bourne has been in awe of flint as long as she can remember.
  It was all around her where she grew up in Kent: used for garden walls, to edge drives and weight dustbin lids, as well as to build pubs, churches, Roman villas and castles. For centuries it was the only building stone available.
  It is also magical. Made from the remains of plankton and sea sponges, it is second only in hardness to a diamond and can be used to make fire. Part of human development for three million years, it was used as a weapon to hunt and in war, and hung as protection against thunderbolts and fairies.
  In a deeply personal love letter to this extraordinary 'biogenic' rock, Bourne traces its geological, architectural and social history and invites us to roam with her in search of it on her beloved North Downs.
  Fusing science, poetry, history and a profound love of landscape, this is her heartfelt, thoroughly persuasive tribute to the stone she calls 'an art project of the great divine'.

  Introduction to Software...

  Software development is the process of designing, building, testing, and maintaining software applications that solve specific problems or perform particular tasks. It involves various stages, starting from the initial idea to the final deployment of an application. To understand software development, it's essential to look at the different components that make it a structured and iterative process. 
  At its core, software development is about problem-solving. It’s a way to create programs that automate tasks, facilitate communication, or offer solutions to real-world problems. The process typically follows a lifecycle known as the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which includes phases like planning, designing, coding, testing, and maintenance. Each stage of the SDLC is crucial because it helps ensure that the software is built systematically, efficiently, and in alignment with user needs. 
  In any software development project, there are various roles that contribute to the process. The most well-known roles are software developers, but there are many others who play vital parts. These include project managers, who oversee the project and ensure it stays on track, and business analysts, who work to ensure that the software meets the needs of its users. Designers are responsible for creating user-friendly interfaces and experiences, while testers ensure that the software is functioning correctly and free of bugs.
