Pillay MD R: The World in 2050

The World in 2050

Implications for Health and Healthcare

The global healthcare industry operates at the intersection of government authority, market forces, and unequal distributions of power that shape how care is financed, produced, and delivered. States regulate access, pricing, and standards, while multinational corporations, insurers, and investors influence innovation, supply chains, and labor conditions across borders. These interactions determine economic outcomes, who benefits from medical advances, and who remains underserved. Analyzing the political and economic structures that govern global healthcare may further reveal how power relations among states and market actors shape health systems, equity, and global health outcomes. The Political Economy of Global Healthcare Industries: States, Markets, and Power explores how states, markets, and global institutions shape the trajectory of healthcare industries. By situating healthcare within the frameworks of political economy, it moves beyond clinical or technological narratives to examine the forces of industrial policy, regulatory governance, capital flows, and strategic competition. This book covers topics such as drug manufacturing, business strategy, and government and law, and is a useful resource for business owners, medical and healthcare professionals, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.

States, Markets, and Power

The Political Economy of Global Healthcare Industries

Human Capital, Innovation, and Executive Decision-Making in Pharma and Medical Device Industries

Synopsis: When Senator James asks a simple question about the future of healthcare, retired healthcare executive JP Kornig sets out to find an answer.
Aboard his Nordic Tug Spindrift, cruising the waters of the Pacific Northwest, JP reflects on more than twenty years of healthcare digitization and the transformation that followed. What begins as a report soon becomes a journey through the history of electronic health records, interoperability, federal policy, and the overlooked role of long-term and post-acute care in America's evolving healthcare system.
As hospitals and physician practices rapidly adopted digital technologies, a critical part of the healthcare continuum was often left behind. Skilled nursing facilities, rehabilitation providers, home health agencies, hospice organizations, assisted living communities, and other long-term and post-acute care providers were expected to care for the nation's most medically complex individuals without receiving the same level of policy attention, financial support, or technological investment.
Through personal experience, historical events, federal initiatives, and real-world healthcare stories, JP traces the development of a system designed around episodes of care while millions of older adults required care that unfolded across months and years. Along the way, he explores the emergence of interoperability, the challenges of fragmented information systems, and the growing recognition that healthcare must be viewed as a connected Spectrum of Care rather than a collection of isolated settings.
Part memoir, part healthcare history, and part policy narrative, Digital Whispers offers a unique insider's perspective on one of the most significant transformations in modern healthcare. It is the story of how healthcare became digital, what was gained, what was overlooked, and why the future of person-centered care depends upon recognizing the full Spectrum of Care.
For healthcare professionals, policymakers, technology leaders, caregivers, and anyone interested in the future of healthcare, Digital Whispers provides both a historical record and a thoughtful look toward what comes next.
Autobiography: John F. Derr, RPh, FASCP, FHIMSS, LTPAC Health IT Collaborative Emeritus, is a pharmacist, healthcare executive, author, and nationally recognized advocate for healthcare information technology. In 2026, he received the McKnight's Pinnacle Agent of Change Award in recognition of his lifetime contributions to healthcare, aging services, and health information technology. A graduate of Purdue University School of Pharmacy and a 2006 Distinguished Alumnus, John has spent more than five decades helping shape the intersection of healthcare, technology, and policy.
Over the course of his career, he has held executive leadership positions in pharmaceutical, medical device, healthcare provider, and healthcare information technology organizations. He has served as a healthcare executive, entrepreneur, policy advisor, and industry leader, contributing to national healthcare information technology initiatives that helped shape the digitization of healthcare in the United States.
John is the founder of the Long-Term and Post-Acute Care (LTPAC) Health IT Collaborative, an organization dedicated to advancing the role of long-term and post-acute care within the nation's evolving healthcare information infrastructure. His work has focused on improving care coordination, interoperability, and information exchange for older adults and individuals with chronic and complex healthcare needs.
In addition to his healthcare career, John served more than thirty years in the United States Navy and Naval Reserve, retiring with the rank of Captain.
Digital Whispers draws upon his decades of experience in healthcare policy, interoperability, and the evolving Spectrum of Care.

This book explores Chinese engagement in Africa’s mining sector within the context of international business. Conceptual and empirical contributions by diverse authors examine mining activities of Chinese companies in several African countries. Emerging from those contributions is a theory of minimal investment, defined as the degree to which the companies invest minimally in African operations, communities, and countries just for them to get by (i.e., function as normal).&nbsp;&nbsp; 
The volume presents four conditions that explain why minimal investment persists as a dominant logic of foreign firm behaviour in Africa. Institutions permit it, strategies enact it, heritage legitimizes it, and reactions stabilize it. Minimal investment has produced order, and order is safety both for firms and often for host institutions alike. Optimal investment, by contrast, introduces ‘danger’ because it changes the status quo, redistributes power, and mitigates African rather than firm risk. The Theory of Minimal Investment (TMI) reveals how underinvestment is an intentional, albeit seemingly rational, historically embedded, and institutionally sustained strategy of engagement. 
Coming at a time in which African countries are seeing a surge of Chinese interest in Africa, this book offers a cautionary tale of the consequences of organizations seeking the ‘help’ of Chinese companies. It will appeal to International Business studies and strategy researchers interested in interorganizational relationships, particularly from the African perspective.

Auch Ärzte dürfen werben – diese Aussage ist mittlerweile bei den Ärzten und Zahnärzten sowie bei den Kammern und Gerichten weitgehend angekommen. 
Allerdings bestehen bei der Ausgestaltung von Werbemaßnahmen noch immer Unsicherheiten über die rechtlichen Möglichkeiten und Grenzen. Diese werden auch in 3. Auflage übersichtlich und praxisnah dargestellt, maßgeblich unter Berücksichtigung der aktuellen Rechtsprechung zum ärztlichen Werberecht. Einen neuen Schwerpunkt bilden die Werbeverbote des Heilmittelwerbegesetzes, die inzwischen auch für Ärzte maßgeblich in den Blick der Gerichte geraten sind. 
Damit ist auch die dritte Auflage des Standardwerks von Bahner ein unentbehrlicher Berater und Begleiter rund um das ärztliche Werberecht.
