Building the Cornerstone of Health officially released

Building the Cornerstone of Health: The Exclusive Health Advisor for Entrepreneurs and Their Families, a new book published by China Economic Publishing House, has officially hit the market.

Co-authored by financial writer Cheng Dongsheng and Yang Huashan, founder of Guokang Family Health, the work is rooted in two decades of proven health management experience. As China's first systematic monograph dedicated to the health management of entrepreneurs and their families, the book has received endorsements from 23 distinguished entrepreneurs, medical experts and management scholars, earning wide recognition as a practical must-read guide for entrepreneurial health governance.

In recent years, health crises among entrepreneurs and senior corporate executives have become increasingly prevalent. Multiple high-profile business leaders have passed away due to illness or sudden health incidents, drawing widespread public attention to the overlooked health risks facing entrepreneurial groups.

As key pillars of social and economic progress, entrepreneurs drive employment growth, fuel tax revenues, and spearhead industrial innovation. Yet behind their remarkable achievements lies relentless occupational pressure. Long-term high-intensity workloads, irregular lifestyles, and chronic neglect of physical well-being have put their health under sustained strain. Many also grapple with profound guilt over their inability to adequately care for aging family members amid busy schedules.

Against this backdrop, the release of Building the Cornerstone of Health arrives at a pivotal moment. The book elevates entrepreneurs' physical health to a strategic dimension equal in importance to corporate operation and family inheritance, putting forward a core viewpoint: entrepreneurial health is far from a private personal matter, but a fundamental asset underpinning sustainable business development and intergenerational family stability.

A defining feature of the book is its collection of authentic health cases from renowned entrepreneurs and academics. Through comparative analysis of both successful practices and cautionary lessons, it vividly illustrates the essential value of scientific health management.

The volume also reflects on the life wisdom of Nobel laureate in Economic Sciences Daniel Kahneman, who made thoughtful life planning choices in his later years while maintaining full physical and mental clarity. His experience inspires profound reflection on bioethics, life decision-making, and the ultimate value of life.

"These real-life cases urge every reader to rethink the essence of life and master whole-life health governance," said co-author Yang Huashan. "In an era defined by rapid AI and technological advancement, rational reflection on bioethics and life choices has never been more vital."
