Hardback. Etat : Very Good. The inside story of the creation of Ozempic and its revolutionary impact on public health. A "cure" for obesity has long been the holy grail for the pharmaceutical industry, one that seemed unattainable until recent breakthroughs in type 2 diabetes research led to the development of Ozempic, a weight loss medication that activates a hormone in the stomach called GLP-1, making people feel fuller for longer. The treatment is so effective that it is already disrupting many industries--from healthcare to fast food to fashion--and it has quickly made its creator, Denmark's Novo Nordisk, the most valuable company in Europe. But the impact of GLP-1s goes far beyond billion-dollar profits; a true long-term cure for obesity could save 40 percent of American adults from dangerous, preventable illnesses. And as more potential benefits emerge, one question looms in the minds of investors, healthcare workers, and politicians: Are these drugs too good to be true? In Off the Scales, Reuters journalist Aimee Donnellan illuminates the history of a medical breakthrough that is poised to change the world, while raising difficult social questions about inequality and morality. Through original reporting and rigorous research, she forecasts the future of GLP-1s and examines what their explosive popularity tells us about our ideals of beauty and the lengths to which people will go in order to become thin. Along the way, Donnellan profiles the scientist whose contributions to the discovery of GLP-1 were overlooked, documents her fight for recognition while her colleagues were thrust into the limelight, and offers new insights into the ways that the food and beauty industries made billions while promoting unhealthy and unrealistic body image standards and accelerating the obesity crisis. She also provides firsthand accounts of several early Ozempic users and the transformative effect the drug has had on their weight loss journeys. Off the Scales is an informative and entertaining study of the unexpected consequences of finally getting what we've wanted for so long.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Who Will Drive the Bus? spotlights the leadership dimension for family businesses currently dealing with or about to deal with major leadership transitions. The development of the next generation of leaders should be an integral part of the strategic plan for the business. Each chapter introduces a family and its business. These cases are fictitious but their challenges are rooted in the experiences of many family businesses. These families and their stories help introduce the themes which are developed in the remainder of each chapter. It is not easy to develop the next generation to take over or at least play a significant leadership role in the family business. Whether a small business or a large one, the issues remain pretty much the same: old, unresolved issues from long ago rear their heads and interfere with sound, thoughtful decision-making for developing clearheaded business strategies. Who Will Drive the Bus? is written to help these families navigate the murky and sometimes treacherous waters surrounding them. Donnellan's book recognizes that family businesses are the heart, soul, and economic engine of much of the globe. Even in the worst of times, they seem to find a way to survive-sometimes at great cost to family health and harmony. With guts, love, and a little luck, they will continue to be the source of tremendous innovation and creativity in the United States and global economies. They seem to find a way through the inevitable transitions. This book offers guidance to help enterprising families plan for and successfully move through these transitions. This book is also written for families who want to figure out and wrestle with what the transition will mean for them - whether is it selling the business, closing shop or passing it on to the next generation or morphing into a new entity. These enterprising families face unique and sometimes daunting challenges as they move forward from one generation to the next and this book offers real-world guidance about how to achieve that goal.…
