Robert G. Proudfoot

The audiobook version of "Enduring Art, Active Faith - 3 Generations Create!" , recorded by Robert G. Proudfoot in April 2023 through Audivita, is an abridged version of the print book by the same name, which was previously published by Robert G. Proudfoot in February 2019 through FriesenPress Inc. The audiobook is comprised of two fictional short stories taken from the print book: "The Guard", and "Half and Half", written originally by Robert G. Proudfoot and Norma Proudfoot, respectively.  
     "The Guard" tells of an unlikely friendship that develops between an expatriate English schoolboy (James Greenburgh) and an African night watchman (Winter Banda), hired to guard the Greenburgh's home in Lusaka, Zambia while James' diplomat father is away in Great Britain, negotiating with Rhodesian and British Governments and black nationalist groups, towards transition to African majority rule for the break-away British colony during the turbulent early 1970s. In "Half and Half", an aging military veteran re-examines the satisfying life he has gained despite difficulties experienced - even with ongoing poverty,  want, and conflict in the world - after he encounters a little boy during the Christmas season in a busy Edmonton shopping mall, who despite so young is coping with disappointments and seeking answers for life's complexities.

The Sociology of Health and...

Fred Grandsen

The sociology of health and illness examines how social factors influence health, disease, and healthcare systems. It goes beyond biological explanations to explore the ways in which cultural norms, economic conditions, and social structures shape individual and public health. Health is not merely a biological state but a socially constructed phenomenon influenced by historical, political, and economic contexts. Sociologists study patterns of illness and healthcare disparities to understand how social inequalities impact well-being.
One of the key concepts in the sociology of health is the social construction of illness. Different societies define and interpret illness in unique ways, often influenced by cultural beliefs and values. What is considered a disease in one culture may not be viewed the same way in another. For example, mental health conditions have been perceived and treated differently across societies and time periods, often reflecting broader social attitudes rather than purely medical realities. Additionally, the classification of illnesses can change, as seen in the evolving definitions of conditions like ADHD, autism, and even obesity.
Another important theme is the relationship between health and social structures. Factors such as socioeconomic status, education, occupation, and race play a significant role in determining health outcomes. People from lower-income backgrounds often have limited access to healthcare, nutritious food, and safe living environments, leading to poorer health compared to wealthier populations. Similarly, marginalized groups may experience discrimination in healthcare settings, affecting the quality of care they receive. Understanding these patterns helps sociologists identify systemic issues that contribute to health disparities.
