What went wrong in US healthcare
Norma retired from our hospital after 52 years as a nursing educator. She started as a junior nurse and eventually became a full professor. In the last few years, we worked together on many projects due to my involvement in education.
When everyone left after the retirement party, I asked Norma: "What do you think went wrong in US healthcare?"
She said: "At some point, we start failing to convey to our patients that we care for them. Instead, we start to bully what we know! They know we know! Our white coats do not capture their hearts; our attitude does. We, as educators, failed to instill that value in the new generation. We taught them books, websites, procedures, writing notes, and articles, but somewhere down the line - we failed to teach them that 'human touch to another human is the most profound art of healing."

Obsessed by Rituals
As Iqbal said in Saqi-nama of Bale-Jibril:
Byan Iss Ka Mantaq Se Suljha Huwa
Lughat Ke Bakheron Mein Uljha Huwa
And
Haqeeqat kharafat main kho gai
ye ummat riwayat main kho gai

Predictably Irrational
This book talks about how psychology plays part in carving human economy, not only at personal level but at corporate as well as global level. How everything including emotions are relative to each other. How advertisements fool our brian. Why its easty to buy $3000 TV but hard to pay $2 on item at store! What's wrong with whole idea of demand and supply. One interesting chapter is all about power of "zero". How human brain get deceive by concept of free. Why people get intimidate by hard cash.
How social relationships get screwed when money finds it way into it. He says: we like to believe and behave like social but caring animals but how our inside animal comes out when things go on sale! How our decision power changes when we are 'high'! Why 'procrastination' soothes human mind. How we value our belongings more than it deserve in market ("Virtual Ownership") and play havoc with us!
Why keeping options open is not a great idea. How it hurts when we don't decide and let life take with us. It talks about power of expectations and price. Why restaurants price one dish so expensive knowing nobody gonna order it (because people will order second most expensive with psychology of having best but not wanting to pay too much...lol)
It tells us how corruption at individual level effects whole system. Why we feel comfortable getting free stuff from work. How it hurts when people return stuff in departmental store unethically. It teaches us trust, power of distrust and honesty.
