    Urging All of Us to Open Our Minds and Hearts So That We Can Know Beyond

    CHAPTER 1 HOLISTIC READING We have left the land and embarked. We have burned our bridges behind us- indeed we have gone farther and destroyed the land behind us. Now, little ship, look out! Beside you is the ocean: to be sure, it does not always roar, and at times it lies spread out like silk and gold and reveries of graciousness. But hours will come when you realize that it is infinite and that there is nothing more awesome than infinity... Oh, the poor bird that felt free now strikes the walls of this cage! Woe, when you feel homesick for the land as if it had offered more freedom- and there is no longer any ―land.‖ - Nietzsche Each man‘s life represents a road toward himself, an attempt at such a road, the intimation of a path. No man has ever been entirely and completely himself. Yet each one strives to become that- one in an awkward, the other in a more intelligent way, each as best he can. Each man carries the vestiges of his birth- the slime and eggshells of his primeval past-… to the end of his days... Each represents a gamble on the part of nature in creation of the human. We all share the same origin, our mothers; all of us come in at the same door. But each of us- experiments of the depths- strives toward his own destiny. We can understand one another; but each is able to interpret himself alone. – Herman Hesse 1 In this chapter I suggest a new method of reading, which I call “holistic reading.” Building on the spiritual model of the Self offered by Jiddu Krishnamurti and the psychological model of “self” offered by Dr.

    At Your Fingertips a Collection of Mhealth Initiatives from the Research-Based Pharmaceutical Industry

    International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations Health at your fingertips A collection of mHealth initiatives from the research-based pharmaceutical industry July 2013 International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations Health at your fingertips A collection of mHealth initiatives from the research-based pharmaceutical industry July 2013 Foreword Information, communications technological innovations are changing the landscape of disease prevention, diagnosis and control. The widespread availability of mobile technology, including in many of the least developed countries, is an exceptional opportunity to expand the use of mobile phones for health (mHealth). Mobiles are the most rapidly adopted technology in the world. Access to mobile networks has now reached 90% of the world’s population and it is foreseen to have 6.8 billion mobile subscriptions for a world population estimated at 7.1 billion by the end of this year. Mobile applications and services can help raise awareness and induce behavioral changes, empower patients and provide them with solutions to help them better manage their conditions, train and support healthcare professionals, strenghten health systems and facilities, and provide access to services for people who are unable to engage officially with the health system. Successes from pilot projects have shown that mobile applications can support the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and could play an even more significant goal in the final push to meet the targets agreed in 2000 and the new ones that will be agreed on in 2015. As this report shows, there are several initiatives that use mobile to help improve early infant diagnosis of HIV or, in other cases, adherence to antiretroviral treatment.

Hundreds of designers from around the world have gathered in Seattle for the IDSA conference, and you are one of them. The city feels alive–a cauldron where the arts, architecture, digital innovations, creativity, music, biotechnology, maker culture, sustainability, multiculturalism, entrepreneurial energy and Surya Vanka, IDSA citizenship engagement are coming together in a potent mix. Not only IDSA 2015 International are you inspired by the most transformative ideas in design, but you Conference Chair also collaborate with fellow designers to tackle some of the world’s most wicked design problems. Four stimulating days later, you have devised breakthrough approaches for these epic challenges, and while doing so, you have also prototyped the new ways that design will be practiced in the 21st century. You have been the butterfly effect that has sparked the transformation of design. We all know that there has never been a better a time to be a designer, nor as much opportunity to make a big impact. As the world can make increasingly powerful products and services and can make them ever faster, the new business challenge is to know what to make, and how to suit these offerings to people’s lives.
