    In October 2016, driven by a keen interest in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, 3D printing, regenerative medicine, Bitcoin, and blockchain, Richard embarked on a journey to unravel the mysteries of these fields. This passion culminated in the creation of the Future Tech Podcast. From the beginning, his goal was to find geniuses—the top 1% in their field who are almost impossible to reach from the outside. 
    Following a significant health crisis in 2017, Richard shifted his focus to health, medicine, and bioscience issues that impact us all, and the Finding Genius Podcast was born. His growing commitment to fostering understanding and innovation led him to establish the Finding Genius Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit supporting revolutionary research initiatives. 
    Driven by a mission to unearth transformative insights in the science of health and wellness, the foundation aims to make these insights accessible to everyday individuals who stand to benefit the most. Complementing this endeavor, Richard hosts two additional podcasts, The Good Question and Surviving Hard Times, both committed to delivering life-enriching and practical information. 
    Richard's extensive interviews with nearly 4,000 scientists, researchers, clinicians, CEOs, CSOs, entrepreneurs, and amateur scientists have resulted in a rich knowledge database and the Finding Genius book series, covering relevant and intriguing topics, including viruses, cancer, sleep health, and microplastics. He continues to be a driving force in entrepreneurship, podcasting, and philanthropy, leaving a lasting mark on the landscape of scientific exploration.

    In this fascinating, refreshingly clarifying book about food, food myths, and how sloppy science perpetuates misconceptions about food, a medical doctor on his way to a conference gets drawn into conversations that answer the following questions:
    		
    		Does vitamin C prevent the common cold? And if it works, why does it only work in Canadian soldiers, ultramarathon runners, and skiers?
    		Was red meat really declared a carcinogen by the WHO? Does that mean I should become a vegetarian? And who decides what gets labeled as red meat and white meat?
    		Is salt really not that bad for you and did a group of researchers really want to experiment on prisoners to prove the point?
    		Does coffee cause cancer or heart attacks? Why did a California court say coffee needed a warning label?
    		Is red wine really good for your heart, and what makes the French Paradox such a paradox?
    		Why did the New England Journal of Medicine link eating chocolate with winning a Nobel Prize?
    		Why were eggs once bad for you but now good for you again? Does that mean I don’t need to worry about cholesterol?
    		Should I be taking vitamin D?

    What if your next customer didn't have a pulse, preferences, or patience for poor performance? 
    In Machine Customers: The Evolution Has Begun, CX Evolutionist Katja Forbes reveals how intelligent agents, autonomous procurement systems, and logic-driven buying platforms are silently revolutionising commerce. This trillion-dollar transformation is happening now, not in some distant future. 
    Visa and Mastercard’s AI agents are shopping for customers. Walmart’s AI procurement makes million-dollar purchasing decisions in seconds without human intervention. Consumer advocate agents negotiate you out of your gym contracts. ChatGPT Agent will plan and book your holidays. These machine customers don’t respond to emotional appeals or brand storytelling. They evaluate clear information, consistent performance, and verifiable claims faster than any human ever could. 
    Every business leader should be asking the same question: "How do we stay competitive when our customers are machines?" Forbes provides the answer. Drawing on exclusive interviews with Don Scheibenreif (Gartner's leading machine customer authority) and Bruce Temkin (creator of industry-standard CX metrics), plus experts from Salesforce, Qualtrics, and other industry leaders, this book reveals the strategic playbook early adopters are using to build competitive advantages. 
    The book transforms abstract concepts into Monday-morning implementation through original frameworks: the Machine Customer Experience Strategy Map, five Machine Customer types, and step-by-step guidance for redesigning customer journeys that win both human hearts and machine logic. There are 30-60-90 day plans for leaders and advice on how to set up a machine customer experience operating system in their organisation. 
    Forbes shows leaders exactly how to make their businesses discoverable to AI agents, design machine-readable value propositions, navigate machine trust and ethics, and build algorithmic loyalty systems that lock out competitors.

    The aim of this guide is not to be your teacher. Think of it as a road map. A way to navigate the world of chemistry and enjoy the scenery as you do so. And believe me, there is a lot to see. Atoms, the periodic table, chemical equations, acids, the Arrhenius theory; all these and many other concepts, as well as the minds behind them, are vital to understanding the world we inhabit. Our destination? Your success in the tests and exams that come your way. We want you to understand these concepts in a concise manner so that they are easy to remember. 
    However, speeding by won't accomplish much with anything in life. This guide is structured for your knowledge of the topic to aggregate incrementally. The more you learn, the easier things become. Do not let the strange words and confusing equations cloud your mind. Take these chapters one by one, and enjoy the trip.
