  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  Take My Hand by Dolen Perkins-Valdez tells the story of Civil Townsend, a nurse in 1970s Alabama who becomes involved with the Williams family. The narrative focuses on the injustices of involuntary sterilization and the ethical dilemmas faced by medical professionals. As Civil works at a family planning clinic, she discovers that the new birth control shot Depo-Provera is being administered to young, poor, black girls, like the Williams sisters. This discovery sets her on a path to fight for justice, while simultaneously questioning her own role and culpability in the situation. The book explores themes of race, class, medical ethics, and the complexities of good intentions, while not revealing what happens at the end of the story.

  The Student

  From the president of Wesleyan University, an illuminating history of the student, spanning from antiquity to Zoom 
   
  In this sweeping book, Michael S. Roth narrates a vivid and dynamic history of students, exploring some of the principal models for learning that have developed in very different contexts, from the sixth century BCE to the present. 
   
  Beginning with the followers of Confucius, Socrates, and Jesus and moving to medieval apprentices, students at Enlightenment centers of learning, and learners enrolled in twenty-first-century universities, he explores how students have been followers, interlocutors, disciples, rebels, and children becoming adults. There are many ways to be a student, Roth argues, but at their core is developing the capacity to think for oneself by learning from others, and thereby finding freedom. 
   
  In an age of machine learning, this book celebrates the student who develops more than mastery, cultivating curiosity, judgment, creativity, and an ability to keep learning beyond formal schooling. Roth shows how the student throughout history has been someone who interacts dynamically with the world, absorbing its lessons and creatively responding to them.
