  Vector-borne diseases represent one of the most complex and challenging frontiers of global health. These infections, transmitted through the bites of mosquitoes, ticks, and other arthropod vectors, affect hundreds of millions of people annually and have shaped human history, migration patterns, and societal development for millennia. This comprehensive exploration delves into three of the most significant vector-borne threats—Malaria, Dengue Fever, and Lyme Disease—illuminating the sophisticated biological mechanisms, ecological dynamics, and human factors that enable these pathogens to transcend the boundaries between wildlife ecosystems and human communities.  
  The story of vector-borne diseases is fundamentally a narrative of ecological relationships, where microscopic parasites and pathogens have evolved remarkable strategies to navigate between arthropod vectors and human hosts. By examining the intricate life cycles, transmission dynamics, clinical manifestations, and global impact of these diseases, this book unveils the multifaceted challenges they present to modern medicine and public health. Readers will journey through diverse landscapes—from tropical regions where Anopheles mosquitoes transmit the ancient scourge of malaria to suburban forests where ticks harbor the bacteria causing Lyme disease—discovering how climate change, urbanization, and human behavior continue to reshape the epidemiological patterns of these persistent threats. Through scientific insight, historical context, and forward-looking analysis, we explore not only the biological complexity of these pathogens but also the innovative strategies being developed to control vectors, prevent transmission, and ultimately reduce the tremendous burden these diseases impose on human communities worldwide.

  The care of creation is the responsibility of all Christians. 
  Join Sequola Dawson in her insightful exploration of death rituals as she examines funerals, memorials, and burial practices, urging us to take ownership and recognize the vital interdependence between humanity, the earth, and all living organisms, advocating for a more ecologically responsible approach to caring for creation. 
   
  The Green Funeral introduces readers to evolving attitudes toward death, the death care industry, and our faith. Dawson not only delves into burial traditions within the African American community but outlines innovative practices suited for a new generation of multicultural churchgoers and those who do not identify with any religious tradition. 
  Dawson sheds light on the often-ignored economics behind the funeral industry, challenging us to consider the implications of "putting money in the ground." Many of us are unprepared for the death of a loved one, leaving us to ponder who bears the burden of caring for the deceased. With thousands of dollars spent on burials, Dawson argues for a more responsible approach--one that acknowledges the environmental impact of traditional practices and seeks to honor our loved ones without compromising the land they leave behind. 
  Dawson's unique perspective on death stems from her experiences in academia, the military, family life, and engineering, as well as her journey as a cancer survivor. She artfully weaves together the languages of all these worlds collectively raising a voice for better creation care--even in death.
