Bringing together a diverse collection of authors to examine the concept of One Health - the interlinking of the economy and the health of humans, other living beings, and nature - Piero Formica investigates how transformative enterprises and advanced technologies can improve the health of the planet and its people.
Exploring topics such as organizations as organisms, innovation and sustainability, healthcare and wellbeing, citizen engagement and more, One Health is a truly transdisciplinary collection.
Advocating for an economically sustainable and harmonised future, the overarching and widely applicable subject matter appeals to both academia and policymakers and businesses, trade associations, foundations, business incubators, and health organizations.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
In his new book, One Health, Piero Formica with his contributors, continues to be at the leading-edge of Knowledge Management in distilling the real-world wisdom for that which really serves our broader collective and sustainable needs.
Our ultimate bottom-line is our wellbeing. The COVID pandemic has demonstrated that an effective healthcare solution is not simply about technology, but additionally a change in human relational behavior at both a community and global level. The looming existential challenges require fresh thinking and a new approach to education valuing the resources of imagination, intuition, and collaboration, over passive memorization and competitive achievements. Piero calls for a repurposing of multi-faceted technology and AI from satisfying the mindless consumption by the wealthy few to the sustainable health of all - including all other life forms and our planet. -- Howard Eisenberg, President, Syntrek Inc.
