The Next Trillion: Why the Wellness Industry Will Exceed the $1 Trillion Healthcare (Sickness) Industry in the Next Ten Years

In analyzing these two gigantic industrial complexes, Pilzer focuses on an emerging "wellness" industry that will soon occupy an additional one-seventh, or "next trillion," of the economy-an industry ripe with entrepreneurial opportunities that will eclipse those of today's Internet-based companies.
