Sinopsis

The Boy's Book of Trades and the Tools Used in Them is an intriguing exploration of various trades, presented with an accessible and engaging literary style that captivates young readers. This work combines vivid illustrations and clear descriptions, effectively demystifying the tools and techniques of various professions - from carpentry to blacksmithing. Situated within the broader context of 19th-century educational literature, this book serves both as a manual for aspiring tradespeople and a guide to the burgeoning industrial society of the time, emphasizing the significance of craftsmanship and vocational skills. The author, writing under the anonymity typical of the era, likely sought to fill a pedagogical void in imparting practical knowledge to a youthful audience. This could stem from a societal shift, where the demand for skilled labor rose alongside industrial advancement. The author'Äôs endeavor reflects a growing recognition of the importance of trade skills in everyday life, particularly during the Victorian era, when the foundations for modern professions were being laid. Recommended for educators, parents, and curious young minds alike, this book is an invaluable resource that fosters an appreciation for the trades. It not only inspires creativity but also serves as a pragmatic introduction to various professions, encouraging readers to explore their interests in craftsmanship and labor.

    InHumana: An American Healthcare Story tells how an only child was conscripted into a war with a soulless monstrosity that repeatedly tried to throw his widowed mom's life away with the surreptitious aid of unregulated artificial intelligence. 
    Months after a stroke and two seizures robbed author Jeremy White's mom of use of her right side, a federal judge ruled her the victor of their war against Humana for wrongfully denying critically needed care. Their battle, which involved multiple hearings and appeals, is one that fewer than 10 percent of denied Medicare Advantage Plan members like her bother fighting, despite a 90 percent success rate for appeals. A Pulitzer-nominated investigation and two class-action lawsuits would eventually demystify Humana's wanton gaslighting by revealing the shocking truth behind their inhumane decisions. 
    InHumana is a timely examination of the medical-industrial complex from the belly of the beast that explores what it means to be human and eviscerates the farce of corporate personhood. White's genuine humor buoys heavy topics and hard-learned lessons about a nebulous appeals process. His epilogue—which addresses "Deny," "Defend," and "Depose—was prompted by a surge of interest in InHumana following the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
