  The Care Divide by Dr. Christopher Voss reveals how healthcare systems shape lives, opportunity, and dignity. 
  Through two vivid stories—Ava, growing up in America’s fragmented system, and Zoe, raised with universal coverage—Dr. Voss shows the stark contrast between fear and freedom. Ava’s life is defined by delayed treatments, surprise bills, and chronic conditions that derail her future. Zoe’s is marked by seamless care, early support, and the freedom to pursue her dreams without fear of losing coverage. 
  Blending human stories with meticulous research, The Care Divide exposes the costs of America’s system: physicians burned out by bureaucracy, families bankrupted by illness, and entrepreneurs trapped in jobs for insurance. In contrast, universal systems worldwide deliver healthier outcomes, stronger communities, and security across generations. 
  More than a policy critique, this book is a call to action. With compassion and clarity, Dr. Voss urges us to envision a future where no one must choose between health and financial security. 
  The Care Divide is essential reading for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and citizens who believe care is a human right. It will open your eyes, stir your heart, and inspire you to join the movement for a system that leaves no one behind.

  The Eye and I

  This book is a story book about the eye. After some 60 years in eye research and clinical work in ophthalmology there have been many instances, where I remember patients and their problems, a book I read or a place that I traveled. This book has 30 chapters and the only thing they have in common, other than all having the same writer is that all have something to do with the eye or eye associated structures such as the eye muscles.None of the chapters are meant to be clinical reports; all are stories and I have tried to keep the text understandable.Some chapters have pen drawings, but for a number I could not think of appropriate illustrations and they consist of just text. All are relatively short, easily read in an evening. Some feature bugs, blister beetles, fleas and lice or other microorganisms that might affect the eye or the tissues around it. Other chapters play away from the U.S., such as Saudi-Arabia, Grenada and Komodo Island.
