Health System Resilience

Understanding Complex Adaptive Systems

We have never been more aware of the air we breathe. Air is intimate, yet it connects us all: every outbreath will go around the world in a fortnight. And air is alive, ever shifting, an invisible world full of mystery. 
 
From the classical theory of elements to fossilised bacteria on Orkney, by way of airborne microplastics and South London buses, Daisy Lafarge takes us on a journey to reimagine our relationship with the natural world through the air we breathe. Rather than something we passively receive and depend on, Airs, Species, Commons explores how all forms of life work together to create and maintain the air as a multispecies commons. The instantaneous drop in air pollution and palpable change in air quality during the first wave of lockdowns in Spring 2020 offered us a hopeful, tentative glimpse of what a protected air commons might begin to feel like.

Belfer Center Studies in International Security

"Using select case studies, this book uncovers the degree of success of wartime innovation through the ability of military organizations to adapt to those innovations"--

An analysis of advances in military technology that illustrates the importance of organizational flexibility in both an attacker’s innovations and an opponent’s adaptations. How important is military innovation in determining outcomes during armed conflict? In Innovation and Adaptation in War, Matthew Tattar questions the conventional wisdom that, to succeed, military organizations must innovate early and often. Because successful methods of warfare are soon widely imitated or countered on the international stage, the advantages of a particular innovation quickly evaporate. Therefore, Tattar argues, large-scale innovations at the cost of organizational flexibility and the ability to adapt to an adversary’s innovations may not be the optimal path—not just because force readiness is vital but also because innovation does not provide as long-lasting and decisive an advantage as may have been previously thought. Although other scholars have analyzed the sources of military innovation, Tattar is the first to focus on the relationship between innovation and specific military outcomes. Looking at several different types of military organizations and many different types of battles, he draws on theoretical works, in-depth historical research, and case studies, and finds that the initial advantages that are generated by innovation disappear far too rapidly in wartime for militaries to depend on them for victory. Furthermore, as Tattar demonstrates, emphasizing innovation in defense planning at the expense of organizational flexibility can have significant negative consequences. The decisive factor in successful adaptation, more often than not, is a well-positioned and flexible organization. Providing both a new framework for studying military innovation and a comprehensive review of the current literature in this field, Innovation and Adaptation in War offers crucial policymaking insights into when and under what circumstances militaries should innovate and adapt.

Innovation and Adaptation in War

The formula to stop invisible killers—an approach that can protect your health and prevent the next pandemic—from one of the most influential public health leaders in the US. In The Formula for Better Health, Tom Frieden—named “the most influential leader in American public health since C. Everett Koop” by former Mayor Michael Bloomberg—reveals how to defeat the world’s deadliest diseases. Drawing from decades leading New York City’s health department after 9/11, directing the CDC during the Ebola epidemic, and fighting tuberculosis and other lethal threats in India and around the world, Frieden combines compelling stories with insider knowledge to show how to win the battle for health. In this book, you will step into laboratories that solve mysteries and expose deadly deceptions. You’ll meet a trailblazing epidemiologist who survived a Nazi concentration camp, a 17th-century cloth merchant who discovered public health’s superpower, and a brilliant Irish doctor knighted for unlocking the cure for tuberculosis. You’ll also learn how disease detectives ended America’s largest outbreak of drug-resistant tuberculosis, what caused the deadliest mistake during the Covid pandemic, and why we ignore fatal warnings. Most importantly, you’ll find out how to stop today's leading killers. Drawing from real-world successes and failures, The Formula for Better Health bridges the lethal gap between scientific knowledge and life-saving action. Whether you want to protect your own health, safeguard your community, or solve seemingly impossible health challenges—or all three—this book offers realistic hope and a clear path to a healthier future.

The food we eat can have an important influence on our skin, nails, and hair, but there is surprisingly little to guide the medical professional through what reputable scientific research has established and how best to advise a patient interested in the topic. Recent research has also challenged many previous ideas, which can add to a general air of uncertainty. This succinct text guides the physician through the many controversies and summarizes what can be recommended.
