  Are you a man looking to get into nursing and do not know how to? 
  Do you wish to understand just what it takes to become a nurse in a female-dominated field? 
  If so, then you have come to the right place. 
  This book will usher you into the world of being a male nurse and thriving at it! 
  For a better part of the last decade, nursing has been considered a female domain, with men being looked at as anomalies in the field. The view that men cannot make good nurses has thus led to widespread stereotypes of men who get into the field. Men in nursing are generally often viewed with suspicion, with people even questioning their sexual orientation.  
  However, as you will learn in this book, nursing had originally been a field meant for men. During the old periods up until the 19thcentury, large-scale caregiving was a role that was meant for men. Thus, this already defeats the stereotype that men lack the necessary temperament to get into nursing. 
  Furthermore, men who get into nursing consider it the most fulfilling profession that they could choose and simply want to care for people. 
  So, perhaps you may be wondering… 
  Why is it hard for men to get into nursing? 
  What are some of the challenges male nurses face in the profession? 
  How do female nurses react to and treat their male colleagues? 
  What are male nurses doing to change the negative perception of men in the field? 
  What does the future hold for male nurses? 
  If these and many questions are bothering you, then this is the book that answers them and more, as it covers the ins and outs of becoming a male nurse and how to make the best of it.

  M.L. Humphrey draws upon twenty years of experience with regulatory compliance, and AML compliance in particular, as both a regulator of broker-dealers and a consultant to some of the largest financial institutions in the world, to give an overview of the main AML compliance requirements, with a particular focus on customer identification and suspicious activity monitoring and reporting.This book is meant to be a high-level overview of AML compliance requirements, which means it focuses on the general concepts behind the regulations as opposed to any specific industry- or country-level regulations or any specific suspicious activity fact patterns. But the book should give a strong foundation for understanding those industry- or country-level requirements.

  Why So Many Young People Are...

  The mental health crisis among young people is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. In recent years, there has been a sharp rise in the number of adolescents and young adults reporting symptoms of depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. This alarming trend has caught the attention of researchers, educators, and parents alike, as they seek to understand the underlying causes and develop effective solutions. The shift from previous generations to the current one, in which mental health struggles are becoming more visible and prevalent, demands a closer examination of the factors that have contributed to this crisis. 
  Social media has played a significant role in shaping the mental health landscape for today’s youth. Platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat have become an integral part of daily life, but they also introduce new pressures. Young people are constantly exposed to curated images of success, beauty, and happiness, leading to comparisons that can foster feelings of inadequacy. Cyberbullying, online harassment, and the fear of being excluded from digital circles can all contribute to mental health struggles. The pressure to constantly perform for an online audience has placed an unprecedented emotional burden on young people, and their self-worth is often tied to the number of likes, comments, and followers they have. 
  Another major factor contributing to the rise in youth depression is the shifting dynamics within families and communities. The traditional family structure has evolved, with many young people experiencing broken homes, economic hardship, or the absence of supportive role models. These changes can lead to feelings of isolation, insecurity, and hopelessness.

  Copyright - What Everyone Needs...

  Copyright law was once an esoteric backwater, the special province of professional authors, publishers, and media companies. This is no longer the case. In the age of social media and cloud storage, we have become a copying and sharing culture. Much of our everyday communication, work, and entertainment now directly involves copyright law. 
   
   
   
  Copyright law and policy are ferociously contested. Record labels, movie studios, book publishers, newspapers, and many authors rage that those who share music, video, text, and images over the Internet are "stealing" their property. By contrast, copyright industry critics celebrate digital technology's potential to make the universe of movies, music, books, and art accessible anytime and anywhere—and to empower individuals the world over to express themselves by sharing and remixing those works. These critics argue that excessive copyright enforcement threatens that promise and stifles creativity. 
   
   
   
  In Copyright: What Everyone Needs to Know®, Neil Netanel explains the concepts needed to understand the heated debates about copyright law and policy. He identifies the combatants, unpacks their arguments, and illuminates what is at stake in the debates over copyright's present and future.

  DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
  This is a summary & it does not accompany the official 
  In "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel A. van der Kolk, the author, delves into the pervasive presence of trauma in society, affecting veterans, abuse survivors, individuals with alcoholic family backgrounds, and those who have experienced physical violence in relationships. Drawing from over three decades of expertise, Dr. van der Kolk explores how trauma not only impacts the mind but also reshapes the body, compromising one's ability to experience pleasure, engage with the world, exercise self-control, and trust others. He discusses cutting-edge treatments, such as neurofeedback, meditation, sports, drama, and yoga, which leverage the brain's natural neuroplasticity to facilitate recovery. Grounded in Dr. van der Kolk's own research and insights from other leading experts, the book underscores the profound influence of human relationships in both causing and healing trauma, ultimately offering hope for individuals seeking to reclaim their lives.

  In a polarizing and racially divided America, what do children of color learn about themselves before they even go to school? How do they see themselves and is that image only exacerbated by spending twelve years in a public education system that perpetuates negative stereotypes? Brian Rashad Fuller personally knows that the impact of low expectations can be devastating. He aims to make a difference in this humanizing and very personal portrayal of what it means to be Black in America's schools. 
   
   
   
  As a Black man who has spent his life as a student and an educator, Brian shares his own story of navigating the world, overcoming his family struggles, and eventually entering an educational system that he believes is inherently racist, damaging, and disserving. He exposes the challenges Black students face and offers a firsthand account of the emotional and psychological impact made by teachers, administrators, policies, practices, lessons, and student interactions. Most Americans are looking for answers on how to improve our education system—as illustrated by the critical race theory debate—but have not fully understood the lived Black experience, until now. With powerful insight into a thoroughly American institution, Brian offers present-day solutions, and liberating hope, for a centuries-long issue, as well as a galvanizing and radical step forward.
