Synopsis

In "The Clammer and the Submarine," William John Hopkins intricately weaves a tale that explores the intersection of human ingenuity and nature's mysteries. The narrative unfolds through rich, evocative prose that paints a vivid picture of life under the sea and the struggles of those who harvest its bounty. Hopkins employs a blend of realism and lyrical language, reflecting the novel's placement within the tradition of maritime literature while also addressing contemporary themes of environmentalism and technological advancement. The symbolism of the clam as a humble yet resilient creature serves as a microcosm for broader societal issues, encouraging readers to ponder humanity's relationship with the elements that sustain it. William John Hopkins, a dedicated environmental advocate and lifelong lover of the ocean, draws from his intimate experiences with coastal life to craft this compelling narrative. His background, steeped in marine biology and an academic career focused on ecological preservation, informs his passionate portrayal of the delicate balance between industry and ecology. This lived experience lends authenticity to his characters, providing readers with a window into the world of clam digging from both an emotional and ecological perspective. For readers seeking a profound exploration of humanity's connection with nature, "The Clammer and the Submarine" offers a poignant and thought-provoking journey. Hopkins' skillful storytelling and engaging character development not only entertain but also challenge us to reflect on the implications of our actions as stewards of the environment. This book is essential for anyone interested in literature that merges ecological themes with compelling narratives.

    Heart disease is the number-one killer in the world. Despite ever-advancing medical procedures and more powerful pharmaceutical drugs, the rate of heart disease continues to rise. According to Dr. Stephen Hussey, this is due in part to misunderstandings about how the heart really functions and how to keep it healthy. These misunderstandings result in improper medical approaches and off-target intervention therapies. As a type 1 diabetic, Dr. Hussey has always known that he was at two to four times greater risk of developing heart disease. As a result, he has dedicated his entire adult life to understanding the heart, to prevent himself from becoming a statistic. And then his worst nightmare came true. Dr. Hussey suffered a “STEMI,” a blockage in the left anterior descending artery of his heart. STEMIs are typically so fatal that they are known as “widowmakers.” Only twelve percent of those who experience them outside of a hospital setting survive. Dr. Hussey was among the lucky twelve percent, but faced a difficult decision during his recovery: follow the standard of care laid out for him by the attending cardiologist or politely decline and apply everything he’d learned about the heart to a recovery protocol that would look massively different than what the doctors were recommending. In Understanding the Heart, Dr. Hussey shares the information that guided him through the highest-stakes decision of his life.

    As much as technology has improved our lives, for many people customer service experiences remain unnecessarily frustrating. But the advent of Digital Customer Service (DCS) promises to make these interactions seamless and effortless by creating experiences that occur entirely on a customer's own screen, even in situations where it is preferable to speak to an agent. 
     
     
     
    Digital Customer Service traces the evolution of customer service—as well as the evolution of customer expectations and the underlying psychology that drives customer behavior—from the days of the first call centers in the 1980s all the way to today's digital world. 
     
     
     
    Written for customer service and customer experience leaders as well as C-suite executives (CEOs, CFOs, CIOs), Digital Customer Service helps business leaders balance three critical priorities: creating an excellent experience for customers that increases customer loyalty and profitability; driving down the cost of customer service/support interactions, while increasing revenue through sales interactions; and moving quickly toward the goal of "digital transformation." When companies commit to achieving true Digital Customer Service, they can make significant progress toward all three of these goals at once. Digital Customer Service provides the roadmap for how your company can get there.
