    A week-by-week account of the COVID-19 pandemic through the eyes of a different kind of health care front line worker—a marketing leader—at one of the nation’s and world’s leading health care systems.  
    "This candid collection of daily emails from a health industry insider offers a unique glimpse at the daily realities of working during Covid. From pandemic fatigue to staycations and Thanksgivings on Zoom, these stories will take you back to a time you might want to forget. Despite the understandable urge to leave the pandemic behind, Comeau proves that sometimes looking back can not only be therapeutic ... it might offer exactly the perspective we all need to continue to move forward too."  
    - Rohit Bhargava, WSJ Bestselling Author of Non-Obvious Thinking + Non-Obvious Megatrends 
    During the early stages of coronavirus, Amy Moudy Comeau, MBA, an award-winning and acclaimed marketing executive, began writing weekly emails to her Emory Healthcare marketing team every Friday, as a form of encouragement and support to get them through eight weeks of shelter-in-place, which turned into a three-year pandemic. 
    Amy’s Friday emails became a weekly tradition, providing support and even levity during this transformational time. Years later, these time-stamped entries, along with present-day commentary from the author giving insight and hindsight reflections on the pandemic, leadership, self-care and marketing, provide a unique snapshot back into those “unprecedented” days of the pandemic.  
    Every Storm Runs Out of Rain gives insightful lessons on leadership and resilience, and finding the silver lining in the middle of a crisis.

    Sisters of the Jungle explores the history of primatology, a rare scientific discipline led primarily by women, from pioneers like Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey to author Keriann McGoogan's own adventurous field studies. 
     
    Since the 1970s, the science of primatology has been dominated by women—a unique reversal, as men usually outnumber women in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. 
     
    Today, one of those women is primatologist Keriann McGoogan, who has traveled to the far corners of the earth in search of wild primates. In Sisters of the Jungle, McGoogan combines stories about her own studies of howler monkeys (the loudest living primate) and lemurs (the most endangered group of animals on the planet) with those of the women who paved the way: intrepid scientists like Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, Biruté Galdikas, and Alison Jolly who broke boundaries, made astonishing discoveries and ultimately shaped the trajectory of an entire branch of science.
