  Stalking the Great Killer -...

  Stalking the Great Killer is the story of Arkansas's struggle to control tuberculosis, and how the state became a model in its treatment of the disease. 
   
   
   
  To place the story of tuberculosis in Arkansas in historical perspective, the authors trace the origins of the disease. Arkansas suffered some of the worst ravages of the disease, and the authors argue that many of the improvements in the state's medical infrastructure grew out of the desperate need to control it. 
   
   
   
  In the early twentieth century, Arkansas established a sanatorium and thirty years later, the segregated Black sanitorium. These institutions helped slow the disease but at a cost: removed from families and communities, patients suffered from the isolation. Joseph Bates saw this when he delivered an uncle to the sanitorium in the 1940s. In the 1960s, Bates, now a physician, and his colleague Paul Reagan overcame a resistant medical-political system to develop a new approach to treating the disease. 
   
   
   
  In the age of Covid-19, this history offers valuable lessons about community involvement in public health, the potential efficacy of public-private partnerships, and the importance of leadership in the battle to eradicate disease.

  In Beyond the Tired: Understanding Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, readers will discover a compassionate, thorough exploration of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), or myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME)—a condition that has left millions feeling exhausted, misunderstood, and often invisible. This comprehensive book delves into the unique challenges faced by those with CFS/ME, blending scientific insights with real-life stories to shed light on one of the most complex and underdiagnosed health conditions in the modern world. 
  Unlike ordinary fatigue, chronic fatigue syndrome impacts nearly every aspect of life, causing overwhelming physical and mental exhaustion that doesn't improve with rest. This book explains how CFS manifests and why it's more than just feeling tired. It examines the primary symptoms, from post-exertional malaise to "brain fog," muscle and joint pain, and the severe impacts on the nervous, immune, and cardiovascular systems. With sensitivity and clarity, Beyond the Tired gives readers an accessible yet detailed understanding of the symptoms, allowing loved ones and those unfamiliar with the illness to gain valuable insight into the day-to-day experience of CFS/ME sufferers. 
  Whether you're a patient, a loved one, or a healthcare professional, Beyond the Tired is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to better understand chronic fatigue syndrome. This book aims to demystify CFS, bridging the gap between medical science and the lived experience of patients. Through a balanced approach that combines science with empathy, Beyond the Tired ultimately seeks to bring awareness, validation, and hope to everyone touched by this often invisible illness.

  The Great American Transit...

  A potent re-examination of America’s history of public disinvestment in mass transit. 
    
  Many a scholar and policy analyst has lamented American dependence on cars and the corresponding lack of federal investment in public transportation throughout the latter decades of the twentieth century. But as Nicholas Dagen Bloom shows in The Great American Transit Disaster, our transit networks are so bad for a very simple reason: we wanted it this way. 
    
  Focusing on Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, and San Francisco, Bloom provides overwhelming evidence that transit disinvestment was a choice rather than destiny. He pinpoints three major factors that led to the decline of public transit in the United States: municipal austerity policies that denied most transit agencies the funding to sustain high-quality service; the encouragement of auto-centric planning; and white flight from dense city centers to far-flung suburbs. As Bloom makes clear, these local public policy decisions were not the product of a nefarious auto industry or any other grand conspiracy—all were widely supported by voters, who effectively shut out options for transit-friendly futures. With this book, Bloom seeks not only to dispel our accepted transit myths but hopefully to lay new tracks for today’s conversations about public transportation funding.
