  THE FASCINATING INSIDE STORY OF THE QUEST TO BUILD THE WORLD'S MOST AMBITIOUS PROFESSIONAL GAMING LEAGUE--AND THE RACE TO WIN ITS $1,000,000 PRIZE.Welcome to the high-stakes world of esports where shit-talking teenage gamers, billionaire sports franchise owners, and celebrity entrepreneurs are all competing to understand and conquer the fast-emerging future of entertainment. The burgeoning frontier of professional gaming has moved beyond the niche corners of the internet to become a global phenomenon, upending youth viewership for the major sports leagues and opening a generational rift over the nature of "athletics." Soon, professional video game competitions may well be as ingrained in our culture as Monday Night Football. YOUNG GUNS: Obsession, Overwatch, and the Future of Gamingtakes readers behind the scenes of the esports boom and into the lives of the gamers and game changers leading the charge, unfurling a wry, unexpected, and often hilarious narrative about the rise of professional gaming and the business of electronic sports.  An avid gamer himself, author Austin Moorhead became fascinated by pro gaming, in particular the Overwatch League (OWL) after sports titans Robert Kraft, Stan Kroenke, and Jeff Wilpon each paid $20 million for a team. At the same time that he began investigating the inner-workings of the league, OWL launched esports into the American mainstream, inking TV deals with ABC and ESPN, selling out NBA stadiums for live competitions, and minting a new version of young pro athletes.  Embedding with two top teams in the Overwatch League, the San Francisco Shock and the London Spitfire, as they embark on the inaugural season, Moorhead pulls back the curtain on the grueling practice schedules and spartan lifestyles of the league's most popular players. In addition to the "gamer houses" and competitions in which the pros hone their skills, Moorhead takes readers into the board room of Overwatch-developer Blizzard Entertainment, where entrepreneurs eager to capitalize on youth culture take bets on new esports franchises for tens of millions. The result is a rollicking story about the superstars of the future and the absurd collision of adolescent prodigies and high-stakes industry, an uproarious look at the future of sports and entertainment that is part Bringing Down the House, part Moneyball.

  In 2014, Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Guinea suffered the worst epidemic of Ebola in history. The brutal virus spread rapidly through a clinical desert, where basic health-care facilities were few and far between. Causing severe loss of life and economic disruption, the Ebola crisis was a major tragedy of modern medicine. But why did it happen, and what can we learn from it? Paul Farmer, the internationally renowned doctor and anthropologist, experienced the Ebola outbreak firsthand-Partners in Health, the organization he founded, was among the international responders. In Fevers, Feuds, and Diamonds, he offers the first substantive account of this frightening, fast-moving episode and its implications. In vibrant prose, he tells the harrowing stories of Ebola victims while showing why the medical response was slow and insufficient. Rebutting misleading claims about the origins of Ebola and why it spread so rapidly, he traces West Africa’s chronic health failures back to centuries of exploitation and injustice. Under formal colonial rule, disease containment was a priority but care was not—and the region’s health-care woes worsened, with devastating consequences that Farmer traces up to the present.

  There is a hidden agenda in Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos’s space exploration to colonize Mars and the Moon. The media portray them as Americans who are rekindling space exploration that was once dominated by the rivalry between the United States and the extinct Soviet Union. 
  Before you write off what I have just said, hear me out. For more than a decade, I’ve closely studied the lives of Bezos and Musk. I have watched as Jeff Bezos dominated online retailing, and Elon Musk building Tesla and SpaceX. As each spread their wings to critical industries, I began to notice a pattern that only leads to one conclusion, the hidden agenda each harbors. 
  On the surface, it appears each of them is interested in dominating space. However, when you study how they operate in every industry, you cannot help but conclude that there is more to their modus operandi. 
  If you would like to find out what this hidden agenda is, and how Musk and Bezos are dominating the industries they each operate in, then BEZOS vs. MUSK is a book you should read. 
  Here’s more of what you’ll learn in this book: 
  ●	Two dreams that Elon Musk has that’ll take him to the top of the air transportation industry. 
  ●	Discover two images in the conclusion that shows what Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are planning when they’re done with their respective projects. 
  ●	What Jeff Bezos did to force NASA to freeze the Artemis program for a few months. 
  ●	An initiative that Elon Musk is undertaking to help increase the thinking power of human beings and why he’s doing it. 
  ●	Why Elon Musk and Amazon Web Services have funded OpenAI. 
  ●	A potent strategy that Amazon uses to dominate an industry it never operated in before. 
  And much much more! 
  If you want to find out the truth behind the rivalry of Bezos and Musk, get BEZOS vs. MUSK.
