Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In The Abundance Dispatch, Ravinder Nath Bhalla, MD - board-certified in child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry, with forty years of clinical practice - delivers a series of open letters to the people whose choices will determine the next decade: world leaders, power-concentrating oligarchs, the architects of a new UN Charter, corporate boards, and the engineers building artificial intelligence.These letters are not moral appeals. They are clinical briefings. Drawing on twelve documented case studies - the Treaty of Versailles and the Marshall Plan, Putin and Ukraine, Ashoka and the Kalinga War, Mandela's South Africa, Haiti's extractive debt, and the Pentagon-Anthropic confrontation of February 2026 - Dr. Bhalla demonstrates that scarcity thinking is not just morally costly. It is strategically inferior by its own metrics: security, prosperity, stability, and legacy.The ask is not transformation. It is accuracy. The window for choosing differently - for AI governance, for peace, for the world our children inherit - is open now, and closing.The fourth volume of The Abundance Series, and its most concentrated form: not analysis about power, but correspondence addressed to it.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. We are the universe briefly awake - conscious, mortal, unrepeatable. Across three thousand years, every great tradition, religious and philosophical alike, arrived independently at the same recognition: that each human life carries an equal and immeasurable worth, and that the vulnerable have the first claim on it, not the last. The wisdom is old, sound, and everywhere. So why do we so reliably fail to live by it?In Wisdom We Cannot Hold, psychiatrist Ravinder Nath Bhalla traces, with clinical precision and unusual tenderness, exactly how we lose our grip - how fear narrows us, how the attention economy industrializes that narrowing, and how we have begun handing our judgment to machines that cannot see a human face at all. Then he shows the way back: the inner work that trains a single mind to keep its lens open, and the structures a civilization must build so that dignity no longer depends on anyone happening to feel kind.The result is a humane and urgent philosophy for this exact moment - when the same machines that could lift the floor for everyone are being aimed, instead, at dissolving it. A book about what we owe one another, and how little time we have to decide. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Why do the most powerful institutions repeatedly make decisions that produceless security, not more? Why do we build systems that cost more and work worsethan alternatives we know about? Why does extraordinary intelligence so oftenserve self-defeating cycles? For forty years, psychiatrist Ravinder Bhalla has watched individuals andinstitutions repeat patterns that harm them despite overwhelming evidence ofbetter alternatives. In ABUNDANCE, he reveals that our major crises-climatechange, mass incarceration, perpetual war, extreme inequality, politicalpolarization-are not separate problems but manifestations of one pattern: scarcity thinking creating self-devouring cycles. The evidence is clear: punishment creates more crime, not less. Extractionaccelerates climate instability. Accumulation compounds inequality. Wallsmanufacture the threats they claim to prevent. Each "solution" perpetuatesthe problem it claims to solve, consuming everyone it touches-including thosewho think they benefit. The abundance alternative exists and works. The Marshall Plan turned enemiesinto partners. Norway's rehabilitation-based justice achieves 20% recidivismversus America's 60%. Portugal's drug decriminalization reduced addiction anddeath. The Montreal Protocol healed the ozone layer. In each case, investingin root causes cost less and produced better outcomes than managing symptomsindefinitely. Yet we rarely choose abundance. Drawing on Nietzsche, clinical observation, and systems analysis, Bhalla shows why: leaders who haven't genuinely facedtheir own mortality cannot think in generations. They optimize for quarterlyreturns, electoral cycles, and personal accumulation-even when those choicesdestroy the foundations they depend on. Written at the exact moment when AI deployment decisions will determine whethertechnology amplifies human capacity or eliminates human agency, ABUNDANCE offersboth rigorous diagnosis and practical framework. The book examines the hardesttest case-Israeli-Palestinian conflict-proving that if abundance thinking canwork there, objections elsewhere are exposed as insufficient. It then addressesAI as the ultimate fork: the same capability that could enable surveillance andmass unemployment could instead strengthen democracy and address the "lowest-hanging fruit"-Haiti, extreme poverty, water scarcity-that we've abandoneddespite having resources to transform conditions for hundreds of millions. The scarcity trajectory is the path of least resistance. The abundancetrajectory requires psychological work most leaders haven't done: facingmortality, examining inherited values, recognizing wholeness, channeling willto power toward creation rather than domination. This is not idealism. It is arithmetic backed by historical precedent. Thequestion is whether enough people with enough power will choose it before thewindow closes. For readers of Yuval Noah Harari, Atul Gawande, and Daniel Kahneman who wantto understand why we're trapped-and what psychological transformation wouldmake different choices possible. ABUNDANCE is an invitation to remember what we've forgotten: that we were borninto abundance, life itself is abundance, and the cycles consuming us are notthe price of being human but the cost of forgetting what we are.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Drawing on forty years of clinical practice and thirty-four years as medical director of a nonprofit serving underprivileged populations across the full age range, Dr. Ravinder Nath Bhalla makes a diagnosis and writes a prescription. The diagnosis: American healthcare costs more than any system in the world and produces worse outcomes than any developed country, not because the money is missing or the clinical knowledge is missing, but because the constitutional floor was never built. The United States is the only developed country without a recognized affirmative state duty to care for its citizens. The result is a system that extracts margin from sickness rather than investing in health, that rewards billable interventions over prevention, that breaks the physicians it claims to revere, and that lets Type 1 diabetics die rationing insulin while the executives of the companies that priced the insulin out of reach take home eight-figure compensation. The book traces the failure with specificity. Alec Smith, dead at twenty-six. Robert Allen in rural Kentucky, watching his vascular system fail because the hospital closed. Trishaun Holland, boarded in an emergency department for sixteen days waiting for a psychiatric bed that did not exist. One hundred and forty-six rural hospitals have closed since 2010. Four hundred and thirty-two more are at risk. The collapse the title names is not theoretical. It is in progress. The prescription is not a policy adjustment. It is a constitutional rebuild - the establishment of the floor that other developed countries built decades or centuries ago, from Bismarck's Germany in 1883 through Britain's NHS in 1948 to Taiwan's two-year single-payer transition in the 1990s. Every one of these countries faced the same opposition that American opponents raise today. Every one made the decision anyway. The United States has not yet made this decision. Not because the decision is impossible. Because the political conditions that would make it politically possible have not yet been built. The book engages the serious philosophical objection from the Objectivist tradition - Ayn Rand and Leonard Peikoff - and shows what their argument got right (the dangers of administrative capture of physician judgment) and what it got wrong (the absence of any state duty to the citizen). It draws on Kenneth Arrow's foundational 1963 analysis showing why healthcare cannot function as a normal market. It traces the constitutional hole through DeShaney and Castle Rock - the Supreme Court cases that established the United States as the developed world's outlier in refusing to recognize state duty. For physicians, hospital administrators, policy professionals, patients, and citizens who suspect that the current debate has been small and the deeper problem has been left unnamed, this book names the deeper problem and provides a map for the rebuild.
