Sinopse

A fascinating study on the influence of sound—and how companies wrangle its power to affect our moods, our shopping habits, and our lives.   From movie scores and national anthems to cell-phone dings and squeaky shoes, sound and music impact how we perceive the stories, situations, and products we encounter every day. In The Sonic Boom, composer and strategic sound expert Joel Beckerman reveals sound’s surprising power to influence our decisions, opinions, and actions in ways we might not even notice: discordant ambient noise can induce anxiety; ice cream truck jingles can bring you back to your childhood.   You don’t need to be a musician or a composer to harness the power of sound. Companies, brands, and individuals can strategically use sound to get to the core of their mission, influence how they’re perceived by their audiences, and gain a competitive edge. Whether you’re a corporate giant connecting with millions of customers or a teacher connecting with one classroom of students, the key to an effective sonic strategy is the creation of “boom moments”—transcendent instants when sound connects with a listener’s emotional core.   “Equal parts sociological study and business advice, using unique everyday examples—for instance, how the fate of the Chili’s fajita empire rested on the sound of the sizzling platter, and how Disneyland approaches soundscapes for a fully immersive experience—to explain how sound effects our mood and shopping habits.” —Entertainment Weekly   “Music defines us. Joel Beckerman knows. Let him tell you all about it.” —Anthony Bourdain   “The Sonic Boom reveals the music and structured cacophony of everyday life.” —Moby

    Airstrikes rain down, Gatling guns pound, and snipers lurk in the distance—welcome to the combat aid station of a young doctor embedded with the heavily weaponized First Marines Division as the Battle of Fallujah boils over.On the night of April 4th, 2004, First Marine Expeditionary Forces launch a major assault on the city of Fallujah. US Navy Lieutenant Donnelly Wilkes's battalion leads the assault into Fallujah as he is positioned with Navy corpsmen and marines at the tactical highway intersection called "The Cloverleaf." Rarely have US military physicians been so close to combat in a major conflict as they were in the chaotic, embattled streets of Fallujah—Code Red Fallujah will take you there.Sharing the harrowing entries from his field diary, Wilkes becomes the first-ever Navy physician to recount the sights and sounds of one of the most violent events of the entire Iraq War. In heart-pounding detail, he divulges his struggles to save wounded warriors amidst rockets landing close enough to knock him off his feet. When Wilkes—fresh out of medical school—is suddenly thrust into this war zone, his skills, his faith, and his ability to endure are all put to the test. Code Red Fallujah is the firsthand narrative of Wilkes's role in the Battle of Fallujah, scintillating combat trauma, and the spiritual challenges that pierced his journey.

    Medical providers and specialists alike refer to Dr. Alexis as a "medical superhero" for sharing her journey to discover pain relief and a chemical-free "cure" from an obscure bladder disease that mainstream medicine states is "incurable."    On its surface, Interstitial Cystitis: A Personal Journey of COMPLETE Healing! is a book that speaks to the indomitable spirit of a patient, Tracy Alexis PhD, who suffered with (and cured) Interstitial Cystitis and Fibromyalgia with herbs and supplements.  However; the timing of this book and its enlightening "medical self-advocacy" section, specifically, could not be MORE providential as every-day Americans struggle to navigate a broken health care system that has become common fodder for political aggrandizement.  Hospitals are suing and bankrupting patients for astronomically high medical service charges that are not covered by a patient’s insurance, and doctors are equally crushed by the burdensome federally-regulated care and oversight of their patients.  This book – endorsed by doctors -  empowers its readers to stand up to America’s broken health care system…and prevail! Interstitial Cystitis: A Personal Journey of COMPLETE Healing! was written for both health care providers and patient-sufferers of IC (and Fibromyalgia) to bless those who suffer from so-called "diseases" many providers say are hopeless and incurable.
