  1. 1. How To Prevent The Next Pandemic

    This book examines the failures exposed by COVID-19 and lays out a practical plan to reduce the risk of future pandemics through better preparation and global cooperation: improved surveillance and early-warning systems, fast diagnostics and contact tracing, expanded vaccine and therapeutic research and manufacturing capacity, stronger health systems and workforce training in low-income countries, and coordinated funding and governance to ensure equitable access to tools. It argues for investing now in technologies, supply chains, and routine rehearsal of outbreak responses so the world can move quickly from detection to containment, rather than repeatedly reacting after the fact.

    Succeeding in the Digital Economy

It shows how timely access to accurate information enables faster decision-making, better customer service, and streamlined operations, and offers practical strategies and examples for building integrated systems, intranets, and e-commerce capabilities. The author stresses that technology must be paired with changes in culture, leadership, and processes, and warns about security, privacy, and implementation pitfalls while urging managers to treat IT as a strategic enabler rather than just a support function.
