  Curtis Malone had the charisma, vision, and connections to become a giant in the world of grassroots basketball. He didn't just build teams—he built futures, transforming raw talent into college scholarships and NBA dreams. On the surface, he was a mentor, a role model, and a community leader. But beneath that polished exterior lay a man caught in a dangerous web of ambition, survival, and duplicity.Duplicity dives into the life of Curtis Malone, a man whose drive for power and provision blurred the lines between right and wrong. Basketball gave him purpose, a way to inspire and uplift. But the streets offered him quick money and the means to maintain his image as a provider—not just for his family, but for the community he desperately wanted to support. Curtis takes listeners on an emotional journey as he grapples with identity, manhood, and the weight of his decisions. He believed he could play both sides, using basketball to save lives and drugs to sustain them. But as the lines between these worlds blur, the question looms: Was he really helping, or was he only perpetuating the cycles he hoped to break?Duplicity is a gripping exploration of power, loyalty, and the choices that define us. It challenges readers to consider the cost of ambition and the fragility of a life built on two conflicting foundations.

  Medical Laboratory Science (MLS) is a vital component of modern healthcare, providing crucial diagnostic information to aid in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. It encompasses a broad range of laboratory tests and analyses that are performed on patient samples to provide data essential for clinical decision-making. As healthcare continues to evolve, the role of medical laboratory scientists becomes increasingly significant, and understanding the field is essential for those entering the profession. 
  The history of medical laboratory science dates back to the late 19th century, when advancements in microbiology, chemistry, and hematology laid the foundation for laboratory testing. Early laboratory pioneers such as Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch revolutionized the understanding of infectious diseases, while the development of diagnostic tools allowed for the detection of bacteria and other pathogens in clinical samples. As science and technology advanced throughout the 20th century, laboratory science grew to encompass an even broader range of tests, including blood analyses, genetics, and molecular diagnostics. 
  The role of the medical laboratory scientist is multifaceted. These professionals work in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, research institutions, and public health laboratories. They are responsible for performing laboratory tests, analyzing results, maintaining laboratory equipment, and ensuring the accuracy and precision of test outcomes. In addition, medical laboratory scientists play a critical role in monitoring the quality of laboratory processes and adhering to safety and regulatory standards. They also collaborate with physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to ensure that test results are properly interpreted and applied to patient care.

  How Did We Get To Be So...

  How is it we humans only arrived after 99.995% of the time there’s been life on earth - and yet we’re now so dominant?  If mutations take generations to have an effect, how did we manage to change so completely in just a blink in time? And why were our rulers and societies always so horrible - yet we endlessly put up with them?Book One of The Secrets of Life quartet began the long narrative of existence by showing how the forces that Big Bang unleashed drove the Earth’s evolutionary developments, and how it after 3.8 billion years of life and the extinction of many billions of species, our obscure forest-dwelling ancestors emerged in East Africa. Yet what, Book Two asks, were the steps that led to us humans becoming so totally different to anything that had appeared before? If we really were just another kind of animal off the production line of life, then what were the revolutions that turbo-charged our unique abilities?How did we evolve so that we could alter ourselves in an instant, and avoid being stuck in an evolutionary niche like every other organism? How did we manage to create the intelligence and insights that allowed us to make our own decisions in life? And where did the free will come from that would let us override the drives of our animal pasts? We alone of all the world’s species have ever been able to predict the future, and then change our behaviour so that it suited our ambitions. But how did we grow our brains and imaginations so greatly that we could achieve this? And only we have evolved the capacity to reject the genetic instructions that shaped us. But why do we think this helps - and how has it affected our lives? Now, using the same easy-going conversational style of the other books in the series, O'Connor answers these and other questions to explain how we evolved to break away from everything that had existed before us. And yet why the effects of our heritage so often still emerge in how we exist.
