  What if everything you thought you knew about healthcare was wrong? 
  In Profits Over People: How Healthcare Became Sickcare, Dr. Adrian Mehmedi exposes the truth about a broken medical system that prioritizes profits over patient well-being. From the rise of Big Pharma’s influence to the suppression of alternative medicine, this book reveals how corporate greed, flawed policies, and a pharmaceutical-driven agenda have transformed healthcare into a business that thrives on illness rather than healing. 
  🔹 Why are prescription drugs the go-to solution, even when they cause harm? 
  🔹 Why is the U.S. healthcare system the most expensive in the world—yet ranks among the worst in health outcomes? 
  🔹 How did we move from natural, holistic healing to a profit-driven sickcare model?A Deep Dive Into the Past, Present & Future of Medicine 
  Dr. Mehmedi takes readers on a compelling journey through history, unveiling how theFlexner Report, medical monopolization, and pharmaceutical lobbying shaped the modern healthcare system. He explores today’s crises, from skyrocketing medical costs to the overprescription of drugs—and reveals how we can reclaim our health.A Roadmap for a Better Future 
  This book isn’t just an exposé—it’s a call to action. With insights into holistic medicine, decentralized healthcare, regenerative practices, and emerging innovations, Profits Over People offers a vision for a new paradigm of healing—one where people, not profits, come first. 
  If you care about your health, your family’s well-being, or the future of medicine, this book is a must-read.

  The Chevron Doctrine - Its Rise...

  Thomas W. Merrill

  • 0

  The Constitution makes Congress the principal federal lawmaker. Power has inevitably shifted to the executive branch agencies that interpret laws already on the books and to the courts that review the agencies' interpretations. 
   
   
   
  Since the Supreme Court's 1984 decision in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, this judicial review has been highly deferential: courts must uphold agency interpretations of unclear laws as long as these interpretations are "reasonable." But the Chevron doctrine faces backlash from constitutional scholars and, now, from Supreme Court justices who insist that courts, not administrative agencies, have the authority to say what the law is. Recognizing that Congress cannot help relying on agencies to carry out laws, Merrill rejects the notion of discarding the administrative state. Instead, he focuses on what should be the proper relationship between agencies and courts in interpreting laws, given the strengths and weaknesses of these institutions. Courts are better at enforcing the rule of law and constitutional values; agencies have more policy expertise and receive more public input. 
   
   
   
  The best solution, Merrill suggests, is not of the either-or variety. Neither executive agencies nor courts alone should pick up the slack of our increasingly ineffectual legislature.

  A Rare Recording of James Joyce...

  In this rare 1924 recording, James Joyce reads from the Aeolus episode of his masterpiece, Ulysses. The recording was arranged and financed by the author’s friend and publisher Sylvia Beach, who brought him by taxi to the HMV (His Master’s Voice) gramophone studio in the Paris suburb of Billancourt. The first session didn’t go well. Joyce was nervous and suffering from his recurring eye troubles. He and Beach returned another day to finish the recording. In her memoir, Shakespeare & Company, Beach writes: "Joyce had chosen the speech in the Aeolus episode, the only passage that could be lifted out of Ulysses, he said, and the only one that was “declamatory” and therefore suitable for recital. He had made up his mind, he told me, that this would be his only reading from Ulysses.I have an idea that it was not for declamatory reasons alone that he chose this passage from Aeolus. I believe that it expressed something he wanted said and preserved in his own voice. As it rings out–"he lifted his voice above it boldly"–it is more, one feels, than mere oratory. The passage parallels the episode in Homer’s Odyssey featuring Aeolus, god of the winds. As a pun, Joyce sets it in a newspaper office where his hero Leopold Bloom stops by to place an ad, only to be stymied by the blustery noise of the printing presses and of the various "windbags" in the office. One character tries to entertain a couple of his friends with a mocking recital of a politician’s speech printed in the day’s newspaper.

  The History of London

  Walter Besant

  Walter Besant was a novelist and historian, and his topographical and historical writings, ranging from prehistoric times to the nineteenth century, were probably best known through the detailed 10-volume Survey of London published after his death.This earlier single volume covers, in less depth, the whole period from prehistory until the 19th century. The book appears originally to have been written for boys, and, indeed, the chapters are called "Lessons". However, it is a very readable history and provides a fascinating insight into both London's past and the government of the City at the time the book was written (1894). (Summary by Ruth Golding)
