Fraud, Arrogance, and Tragedy in the Quest to Cure Alzheimer's

How the financialization of healthcare has eroded the quality of care, driven up prices, and worsened health inequalities Financial actors and healthcare leaders increasingly view healthcare organizations as financial assets to be bought, sold, and managed for maximum profit, regardless of the effects on patient care. Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital reveals how the federal government enables financial opportunism in healthcare and offers bold ideas for overhauling a failed system. Rosemary Batt and Eileen Appelbaum provide a unique analysis of the financialization of healthcare, a process in which a growing proportion of the healthcare economy is owned and controlled by the financial sector. Healthcare organizations increasingly depend on financial machinations and the earnings derived from them rather than revenue generated from patient care. The extent to which financial calculations overshadow the healthcare mission depends importantly on institutional legacies, reimbursement rules, and the failure of regulatory oversight. Batt and Appelbaum show how differences in regulations and financing rules shape whether financial actors can penetrate distinct healthcare segments—from hospitals, nursing homes, and ambulatory care to physician specialties, home health, hospice, and autism services. Nonprofit healthcare is not immune from this financial logic. Evidence based, accessible, and informed by real-world examples, Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital sheds critical light on how financial deregulation coupled with the relaxation of health, tax, anti-trust, and labor laws have allowed financially driven actors to exploit public funds for private gain at the expense of healthcare organizations, patients, communities, labor, and taxpayers.

Public Funds for Private Gain

Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.

How Corporations Built Our Choices and Sold Our Freedom

Choose Your Captivity

Indecision is a fact of life.We can't decide what film to watch, dinner to make or wine to buy. We hesitate before committing to romantic relationships and then again before breaking up. We worry about how best to invest our money, time, and energy. In contrast, we admire those individuals who can make quick decisions and stick to them with ease.But what if the line we've been sold - that indecision is bad, unhelpful, weak - is wrong?In this ground-breaking book, two leading psychologists upend the traditional decision mindset and reveal the hidden benefits of staying undecided. Drawing on the latest neuroscience and a wealth of examples from current affairs, history and popular culture, Ophelia Deroy and Bahador Bahrami provide fresh insight on everything from online dating and parenting to the gig economy and the way we vote. In so doing, they reveal that our obsession with decision-making does us more harm than good. Offering a radical, and often counterintuitive, new perspective on our everyday predicaments, Indecision encourages us to cultivate the power of an unresolved mind for happier, healthier lives.

From the author of&nbsp;A People's Guide to Capitalism, a clear-eyed look at the world of cryptocurrencies, cutting through the glitz and the scams to reveal how crypto mirrors and exacerbates the crises of capitalism 
 
Cryptocurrencies have gone from being fringe investments relevant only to hardcore adherents to a multi-trillion industry with a direct line to Donald Trump's White House. The promises of crypto are wide-ranging, preying on a basic reality: people are alienated by an economic system that has excluded them and wonder if cryptocurrencies can offer a more transparent and inclusive alternative. 
 
Enter&nbsp;Crypto-Capitalism, Hadas Thier's deft, accessible examination of the rise and fall and rise again of crypto. Drawing on years of reporting on the industry, its insiders, and the ordinary people impacted by its wild peaks and busts, Thier explains how cryptocurrencies work, elucidates the context and implications of their rise, and debunks the utopian mythology that animates their boosters. 
 
By showing that systemic exploitation and domination are inherent in a crisis-ridden capitalist economy and are matters of class power, not technology, Thier convincingly cuts through the froth and the lies of financial dystopia. Along the way, she exposes the dangerous consequences of crypto's rise and offers alternative avenues for imagining what economic democracy could actually be.

Burnout isn’t solved with perks—it’s solved with communication. Grounded in peer-reviewed research, Relational Energy shows leaders how to use everyday language to spark energy, revive exhausted teams, and build workplaces where people thrive. Every leader is dealing with burnout and looking for something they can actually do tomorrow morning, and this is it. In this book, leadership scholars Amy Young and Kim Cameron reveal how everyday communication creates relational energy, the powerful force that fuels engagement, creativity, resilience, health and well-being, and performance across teams. Drawing on research from positive psychology and decades of work with leaders and organizations, the authors show how simple shifts in communication can transform workplaces from drained and disconnected to energized and thriving. The best part is, these changes have big impact but come with no cost. In this book, leaders learn how to <ul><li>use the language of belonging to help employees feel valued, respected, and connected;</li><li>turn everyday conversations into sources of relational energy that boost motivation and performance;</li><li>build trust through respectful dialogue, listening, and authentic presence;</li><li>navigate difficult conversations without draining morale or relationships;</li><li>create positive team interactions that spread energy across organizations; and</li><li>replace burnout cultures with communication practices that spark engagement and well-being.</li></ul> Practical, research-driven, and immediately applicable, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact, recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.

How to Beat Burnout and Ignite Your Team

Relational Energy

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

Daughters, Diplomats, and Death

This book provides the first in-depth scholarly analysis of fraud, the highest volume crime in England and Wales, addressing the challenges faced in building a principled criminal law response by presenting an innovative normative analysis. The UK is now in a pandemic of fraud. There were 4.6 million fraud offences recorded in the year ending March 2021, accounting for 42% of all crime committed against individuals. Fraud is now the highest volume crime in England and Wales; its incidence in the first half of 2021 was described by UK Finance as a 'national security threat'. The book provides the answers to key questions, such as: - How can the rapidly changing nature of fraud be understood and mapped by criminal lawyers? - How does fraud connect to economic crime more broadly? - Is the current landscape for criminalising fraud fit for purpose, in the light of changes to the nature and complexity of wrongdoing? - What are the principled limits to using Artificial Intelligence technologies to detect and to penalise fraud? - Which principles should inform fraud criminalisation and governance following the COVID-19 pandemic, to meet the challenges of a digital age and a stretched criminal justice system?

Krankenkassen und Pflegekassen sind die nationalen Träger der gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung bzw. der sozialen Pflegeversicherung. Schauen sie zum einen auf eine lange Tradition zurück, sehen sich deutlich wandelnden Anforderungen im Hinblick auf das das Management der Trägerstrukturen gegenübergestellt.
 
 Zu den Hauptaufgaben der Kranken- und Pflegekassen gehören die Organisation der Versorgung im Falle von Krankheit, Mutterschaft, zum Teil Unfall und Pflegebedürftigkeit nebst der entsprechenden Finanzierung und späteren Kostenübernahme sowie die Führung und Gestaltung der Verhandlungsprozesse mit den Leistungserbringern. Als Körperschaften des öffentlichen Rechts gelten besondere – insbesondere gesetzliche und damit regulatorische – Anforderungen für diese Träger. Die Einführung des freien Kassenwahlrechts Mitte der 1990er-Jahre und die Etablierung des Gesundheitsfonds 2009 hat zu einem Verdrängungswettbewerb geführt, der sich in einer Reduzierung der Anzahl der Krankenkassen manifestiert hat: Knapp 100 Krankenkassen versuchen derzeit die Versorgung für rund 72 Mio. Versicherte zu organisieren. Die Anforderungen an das Management dieser Einheiten sind damit deutlich gestiegen und zudem fallen weitere neue Aufgaben auf die Krankenkassen und Pflegekassen zu. Damit erstrecken sich die Aktivitäten der Kranken- und Pflegekassen unmittelbar auf zwei der insgesamt drei Gesundheitsmärkte: Versicherungsmarkt, Markt der Versorgungsverträge und zu guter Letzt der Leistungsmarkt.
 
 Dieses Handbuch – das erste zu diesem Thema – liefert eine hilfreiche Übersicht über die Organisation, das Versorgungsgeschehen und die Struktur der Kranken- und Pflegekassen. In den von Branchenexperten verfassten Beiträgen werden Verwaltungswissen, betriebswirtschaftliche Kompetenzen und regulatorische Grundlagen vermittelt, um sich in diesem sehr speziellen Markt behaupten zu können.
