Book Description
A British MP is assassinated outside Westminster Palace, London. The Chief of the Security Services tasks a disgraced spy and her team of young agents to conduct a discreet investigation. They are quickly drawn into an international web of conspiracy involving election fraud on an industrial scale. As they begin to unmask the real power behind power, they must learn to play the modern influence industry at its own game. To defend democracy. To stay alive. SVEN HUGHES Written by the former Head of Elections at SCL (the precursor to Cambridge Analytica), this sensational debut novel shines a light on the shadowy world of modern political influence. As with all the best works within the espionage genre, Selling St. Christopher combines startling insider knowledge with expert storytelling. It is a searing fictional account of today's strategic communications sector, and the secretive companies that 'sell victory' to the highest bidder. It is set to become a classic."I live, breath and swim in the water of the spy novel and I'm telling you that this one is a cracker... it is beautifully written." Robert Mills, Talk Radio. "This genuinely is an unforgettable read packed with strong, interesting characters, a refreshing and exhilarating storyline and a first-class denouement." Gold Wind Publishing

Selling Teaching Hospitals and Practice Plans
Author: John A. Kastor
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 0801897092
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Why would a university renowned for its school of medicine ever sell its teaching hospital? In his newest book, Dr. John A. Kastor presents an insider’s view of why university medical centers decide to sell teaching hospitals, why the decision might be a good one, and how such transitions are received by the faculty and administration. Kastor tells the story of two universities that, under financial duress for more than a decade, chose to sell their teaching hospitals. George Washington University sold to a national, for-profit corporation, Universal Health Services, Inc., and Georgetown University sold to a not-for-profit, local company, MedStar Health. Through interviews with key players involved in and affected by these decisions, Kastor examines the advantages and disadvantages of selling and describes the problems that can afflict medical schools that separate from their faculty practice plans. For the current leaders of medical schools facing similar financial challenges, Kastor analyzes how much it costs to teach clinical medicine and offers valuable advice on how to reduce expenses and increase surpluses.

The Manufacture and Sale of St Einstein - I
Author: Christopher Jon Bjerknes
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781913057244
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 602
Book Description
Racist physicist Albert Einstein became internationally famous in 1919 when newspapers around the world reported that he had correctly predicted that the gravitational field of the sun would deflect rays of light. The press promoted the virulently racist and segregationist Zionist, Albert Einstein, as if he were the world's greatest mind, a mind that had surpassed the genius of Copernicus, Galileo and Newton. In April of 1921, Albert Einstein took advantage of his newly found fame and traveled to America. He promoted racist Zionism to the Jews of America, while raising money for the Eastern European Zionists who had made him famous. Einstein championed the racist doctrine of Theodor Herzl, that Jews were a distinct race of human beings, who could not assimilate into any Gentile society and therefore ought to segregate themselves and form a nation in Palestine. Einstein also believed that there ought to be a world government. However, Einstein thought that Israel ought to be a distinct nation. Though he described himself as non-religious, Einstein's racist views, and his concurrent call for a world government and a segregated "Jewish State" mirrored Jewish Messianic prophecies. Einstein raised money in America for the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. He also tried to popularize the racist Zionist cause. The news media enthusiastically covered his trip to the United States. Mainstream news media claimed that all of Einstein's critics were anti-Semites, but did not criticize Einstein for his rabid racism or his segregationist politics. Prof. Arvid Reuterdahl of St. Thomas College, in St. Paul, Minnesota, responded to Einstein's aggressive self-promotion. With reference to the notorious circus promoter P. T. Barnum, Prof. Reuterdahl dubbed Albert Einstein the "Barnum of the Scientific World". He publicly challenged Einstein to a debate over the merits of the theory of relativity and publicly accused Einstein of plagiarism. Einstein refused to debate Reuterdahl. Einstein stated that his sole purpose for coming to America was to raise money for the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and that he could not be bothered with issues related to "his" theories. Even before coming to America, Einstein had earned an international reputation for hiding from his critics. His favorite tactic to avoid debate was to accuse his critics of being "anti-Semites", while refusing to address their legitimate accusations of his, Einstein's, irrationality and plagiarism. Like most bullies by bluff, Einstein was a coward, who hid behind the power of the racist Jews who attempted to shield him from criticism through well-orchestrated smear campaigns in the international press.
