Journal of a Black Queer Nurse

Britney Daniels

In this searing, honest memoir, a Black queer emergency-room nurse works the front lines of care during COVID-19. 
 
 
 
Britney Daniels is a Black, masculine-presenting, tattooed lesbian from a working-class background. For the last five years, she has been working as an emergency-room nurse. She began Journal of a Black Queer Nurse as a personal diary, a tool to heal from the day-to-day traumas of seeing too much and caring too much. 
 
 
 
Hilarious, gut-wrenching, and infuriating by turns, these stories are told from the perspective of a deeply empathetic, no-nonsense young nurse, who highlights the way race, inequality, and a profit-driven healthcare system make the hospital a place where systemic racism is lived. 
 
 
 
Whether it is giving one's own clothes to a homeless patient, sticking up for patients of color in the face of indifference from white doctors and nurses, or nursing one's own back pain accrued from transporting too many bodies, Journal of a Black Queer Nurse reveals the ways in which care is much more than treating a physical body and how the commitment to real care—care that involves listening to and understanding patients in a deeper sense—demands nurses, especially nurses of color, must also be warriors.

Error Traps - How...

Elmar Lutter

Flying is one of the safest modes of transportation, but should we and can we make it even safer? Elmar Lutter, President & CEO at Lufthansa Technik Philippines, believes unequivocally that we should. But how, in a field mired with technical and design complexities, reliance on human judgement, impossible timing constraints, and how-to-manuals that go on for miles, do we?In Error Traps: How High-Performing Teams Learn to Avoid Mistakes in Aircraft Maintenance, Lutter challenges us to focus on our sphere of influence to avoid mishaps. In doing so, we can practice certain behaviors and attitudes that can:• Intercept chains of events that have the potential to cause damage.• Avoid predictable errors to reduce the exposure to becoming collateral damage in mishaps initiated outside of our sphere of control.Through a journey of compelling aviation experiences, Lutter offers four tools that every individual in aircraft MRO can and should employ to ensure they have done their very best to keep their team on the ground and the pilots and passengers in the air as safe as possible.Using real-world examples to connect the dots between 1. Competence: Master the basics 2. Awareness: Be in the moment, know what is coming 3. Compliance: Respect the defenses: read and follow the guidance, and 4. Teamwork: Look after one another,Lutter shares important insights and life lessons drawn from more than twenty years of collective knowledge and experience in an often unforgiving field.

Bizarre - The Most Peculiar...

Marc Dingman

The human brain is an impossibly complex and delicate instrument—capable of extraordinary calculations, abundant creativity, and linguistic dexterity. But the brain is not just the most brilliant of evolutionary wonders. It's also one of the most bizarre. 
 
 
 
This book shows a whole other side of how brains work—from the patient who is afraid to take a shower because she fears her body will slip down the drain to a man who is convinced he is a cat and a woman who compulsively snacks on cigarette ashes. 
 
 
 
As fascinating as they are, the cases discussed in this book are more than just oddities. In attempting to understand them, neuroscientists have uncovered important details about how the brain works. You'll be intrigued and amazed by some of the weird things your brain does on a daily basis, seemingly without your awareness or consent, and maybe you'll even gain an increased appreciation for the stability of the reality you experience. This book is ideal both for listeners seeking a better appreciation of the inner workings of the brain and those who simply want some extraordinary topics for dinner-party conversation.
