When legendary comedian Garry Shandling died in 2016, at the age of just 66, his fans and the show business community were mystified and shocked. Over 40 years on stage and screen, audiences loved his self-analytical and self-deprecating humour and thanks to hit sitcoms like The Larry Sanders Show, he garnered over 60 awards and nominations, including Emmys. Outwardly, he appeared to be in good health, never drinking to excess or using illegal drugs. Instead, he seemed to be always pursuing a busy fitness regime, eating well and practising meditation. Behind the scenes, however, Garry was an obsessive perfectionist and workaholic and suffered intense stress in both his business and personal life. He also battled with serious long-term health conditions resulting in major surgeries and the removal of internal organs, making his medical history complicated. World-renowned pathologist Dr. Michael Hunter is re-opening Garry's medical files to solve the mystery of what caused the fatal blood clot that would ultimately claim Garry's life.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to Learn Easily from Human History's Victories and Failures?
You don't have to wait for history to repeat itself. It doesn't take much time at all to learn from the mistakes of human history. Be sure to not repeat the mistakes!
The key is to take what worked in the past and learn from it.
This can be done by reading books about leadership and management strategies, as well as case studies from successful companies that have existed for decades.
You will be able to learn from their success stories and avoid the same mistakes they made.
You can also study examples of businesses that have gone bankrupt. Why did they fail. Is there a common theme among these failures. These insights will help you avoid costly mistakes.
You can also read about historical figures like Abraham Lincoln, John D. Rockefeller and Steve Jobs. They had the most impressive resumes but none knew how managing people or running a company. Learn from their mistakes to help you make better decisions.
The bottom line is that you can learn from the failures and victories of human experience. All you need to do is spend a few minutes every day thinking about what has worked well in the past and finding ways to implement them today.
What is the most valuable thing that you have learned in history?
This question doesn't have an easy answer. Learning can be viewed in three ways. First, we must realize that knowledge is power. Second, we must recognize that knowledge is cumulative. Third, we must appreciate how quickly knowledge changes.
Knowledge is power. It empowers us to make better choices and improve our lives. We wouldn't have any problems making decisions if we had perfect information. We'd do what we want, without worrying about whether it was correct or not.
Knowledge is not just power; it's also cumulative. This means that knowledge is not only powerful, but also cumulative. As we get smarter, our brains become more sophisticated. Knowledge accumulates.
Let's now look at the third. While knowledge is cumulative, it doesn't stay static for very long. In fact, knowledge is constantly changing. Scientists discover new theories and facts every day. There are always new discoveries.
Technology allows us to quickly access knowledge, and is crucial for our culture. It is possible to store large amounts of data digitally and share it with millions of people around the world.
Globalization has influenced the way we look at knowledge, in addition to technology. Globalization is the process of ideas and products spreading across borders. Globalization has made knowledge accessible to everyone.
Internet access allows anyone to find information from any part of the world. You can surf the internet, read books, listen to music and play video games. All of these activities require knowledge.
While knowledge is becoming increasingly accessible, it is also becoming more specialized. There are hundreds of thousands upon thousands of websites today offering advice on topics like health, finance and business, as well as sports, travel, and cooking. These sites have information on every topic.
However, if you search online for automotive-related products and services, there are only a handful of sites. Instead of thousands of sites covering every possible topic, there will be only a handful of sites that are focused on cars.
Experts in specific fields are able to create and share valuable knowledge. Experts often have deep knowledge of a field. Experts are also skilled at producing content that is relevant to their target audience.
This specialization is good news for consumers because they don't need to search through tons of useless information. Instead, they can rely on a limited number of websites that offer lots of valuable content.
Specialization is also a benefit for experts, who can create strong businesses around their expertise. When someone buys a book, he expects the author to know his subject well enough to write a clear and concise explanation of the material. He wants to know that the author has understood his message.
An expert who isn't a specialist risks losing customers who are expecting him to be one.
There are many areas of expertise. Nowadays, specialists are not limited to one area. A specialist could be an accountant. We are also likely to be parents, spouses and friends.
Specialization is so common that some experts argue that it's impossible to succeed without being an expert in several different things.
How do you become an expert on multiple subjects? It's simple: practice. It's necessary to work hard to learn. When you start to make progress, it's important to keep going until your skills are recognized by others.
Today, entire industries are dedicated to helping others achieve their goals. Some courses, workshops, seminars, conferences, and even schools teach people how to gain knowledge quickly.
Who first said that people who don't learn history from the past are stupid?
As much as we would love to live in an ideal world where everyone learns from history, there is nothing more valuable than learning from our mistakes.
There's no better way to learn to do something right than to experience it wrong.
The most serious mistake is to try to make it right the first go.
As long as you keep making improvements, you'll eventually understand why you made those changes.
You may even find that you could do it better the second time.
This doesn't necessarily mean that you should stop trying. You've learned a lot.
You may not be able to avoid making mistakes, but you can certainly minimize them. This is the difference that makes the difference of success and failure.
Recognizing your mistakes is the first step. Next, look at your mistakes objectively and ask yourself "What have I learned?"
When you're open with yourself, you will see that your failures are not failures. They are learning opportunities.
Thomas Edison was the victim of this fate. He failed many times before he finally invented the light bulb.
He didn't let his failures discourage him. Instead, each failure was an opportunity to improve his design.
And over time, he invented the most popular form of lighting today.
So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your mistakes. You should learn from your mistakes.
Then, try again.
What are three things you can learn from history?
There are plenty of examples from history that show how we can learn lessons from our mistakes. They can be applied to current business challenges, and transformed into opportunities for growth.
The past teaches us that there is always another way to do things. You will always find someone who thinks outside of the box and takes chances that make them stand out.
History shows us that often, it's the underdogs and not the winners who win. When you feel overwhelmed, stuck or lost, think back to the times when they won.
Look back on the past and learn from it. Learn from others' failures and successes.
These lessons will help you increase your success rate.
