America is the first country in history to fund the rise of its
rivals. We need to stop now, before it’s too late. One of the
most consequential U.S. Trade Representatives in our history,
Robert Lighthizer led a great reset of American trade policy that
has endured across Administrations. For more than 40 years, he
litigated, negotiated, and editorialized against the failed
policies of one-sided free trade as part of both the Reagan and
Trump administrations and as a private lawyer. As Trade
Representative, he fought against globalists, importers, lobbyists,
foreign governments and big businesses whose interests diverged
from those of the American workers. For decades, unbalanced
“free” trade was the preferred option for the most powerful in
Washington, and millions of ordinary Americans paid the price.
Instead of prioritizing healthy American communities, good jobs,
higher wages, and a promising future for our workers, Washington
too often cared more about corporate profits, cheap imports and the
concerns of foreign governments, including the Chinese. In return,
we got cheaper coffee makers and tee shirts, while thousands of
factories closed, wages stagnated, communities deteriorated,
economic inequality rose in our country, and we racked up trillions
of dollars in trade deficits. Part memoir, part history, and part
policy analysis, No Trade is Free tells the story of how America
found itself at this point and how the Trump administration took on
the orthodoxy of the trade establishment, with astonishing results.
With in-depth character sketches of some of the most important
leaders of our time—from Donald Trump, to Xi Jinping, to Nancy
Pelosi, to Andrés Manuel López Obrador—Lighthizer explains how
trade negotiations actually work and why leverage is the key to
success—no trade is free. This book is a wake-up call to our
politicians, thought leaders, but most importantly, everyday
Americans. It presents the case against the policies that have
weakened America and left our families and communities behind. It
argues for a worker-focused trade policy. It tells the story of our
fight for every American job and how for the first time, a US
administration took on China. But most importantly, it is a guide
to the new world economy—one which will require a worker-focused
trade policy.

A medida que la nueva tecnologia laser evoluciona y revoluciona la
atencion oftalmologica, se hace necesaria la existencia de una
referencia actualizada y completa enfocada al entrenamiento o
actualizacion del medico residente o especialista cuya practica
incluye este tipo de procedimientos. Editado por Lars Freisberg,
Nate Lighthizer, Leonid Skorin Jr., Karl Stonecipher y Aaron B.
Zimmerman, Manual de laser en oftalmologia fue creado para
proporcionar informacion clinica concisa y relevante sobre la
tecnologia laser en un formato consistente y facil de usar. La
mayoria de los capitulos contienen indicaciones clave especificas,
contraindicaciones, consideraciones preoperatorias, puntos de
procedimiento y consideraciones posoperatorias. Como informacion
adicional, se incluyen varios capitulos no relacionados con el
laser, como el entrecruzamiento corneal y la terapia de luz pulsada
intensa. Aunque estas tecnicas se basan en dispositivos que no son
laseres por definicion, la radiacion electromagnetica se utiliza
para manipular terapeuticamente los tejidos y estos temas encajan
de manera perfecta en el esquema general de este manual.
