Hi Everyone,

Maybe it’s my old journalist self talking here but I consider it crucial to stay informed. In these days of dramatic headlines, we can lose sight of the more complex, insidious issues affecting our lives.

I found these two short books—more like long essays—to be excellent primers on what’s happening in health care (and how it affects our fundamental freedom) and out-of-control corporate power (and the case for reining it in).

1) OUR MALADY by Timothy Snyder

2) THE CURSE OF BIGNESS by Timothy Yu

Hope you find them helpful!

Abrazos,

Cristina
