Sinossi

Persian Innovations reveals the often-overlooked contributions of Persian scholars to science, medicine, and engineering, asserting their pivotal role in shaping global knowledge. The book highlights Persia's intellectual legacy from antiquity to the early modern era, demonstrating how Persian thinkers preserved, synthesized, and pioneered original concepts. For example, the book details how figures like Avicenna and Rhazes produced medical texts that were standard references in European universities for centuries, and how Persian advancements in mathematics and astronomy influenced later European scientists.

 
The book explores the rise and fall of Persian empires and their patronage of intellectual pursuits, examining social and cultural conditions that fostered scientific inquiry. It begins by introducing foundational elements of Persian science, medicine, and engineering, then develops these ideas through thematic sections focusing on medicine, mathematics, astronomy, and engineering. By drawing on diverse sources, including original Persian texts and archaeological findings, this book provides a comprehensive and multifaceted perspective on Persian innovation.

 
Persian Innovations challenges Eurocentric narratives by showcasing Persia's vital contributions to the history of science, technology, and medicine. It emphasizes the importance of cultural exchange and cross-cultural collaboration in the development of global knowledge.

    A look at the history of psychiatry’s foundational impact on the lives of queer and gender-variant people. 
      
    In the mid-twentieth century, American psychiatrists proclaimed homosexuality a mental disorder, one that was treatable and amenable to cure. Drawing on a collection of previously unexamined case files from St. Elizabeths Hospital, In the Shadow of Diagnosis explores the encounter between psychiatry and queer and gender-variant people in the mid- to late-twentieth-century United States. It examines psychiatrists’ investments in understanding homosexuality as a dire psychiatric condition, a judgment that garnered them tremendous power and authority at a time that historians have characterized as psychiatry’s “golden age.” That stigmatizing diagnosis made a deep and lasting impact, too, on queer people, shaping gay life and politics in indelible ways. In the Shadow of Diagnosis helps us understand the adhesive and ongoing connection between queerness and sickness.

    Saved by a Stranger is an honest, down-to-earth, informative book inspiring hope, perseverance, and triumph for those who are facing the need for a new organ. Through great storytelling, the author helps patients and caregivers feel empowered as they face the challenges of the unknown. 
    After battling a rare autoimmune disorder called Primary Schlerosing Cholangitis (PSC) for eighteen years which led to cirrhosis, Lezlee Peterzell Bellanich's husband, Capt. Rob, finally received his life-saving liver transplant on September 10, 2020 at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. Today, he looks and feels like a healthy man with a new engine inside of him. 
    What were all of the twists and turns that led to where they are now? How does hearing amazing survival stories from other transplant patients provide hope and crucial information to those on the waitlist? How, who, and where do donated organs come from? 
    Saved by a Stranger unlocks the mystery of organ donation and transplantation through honest storytelling. The author not only describes their family's personal journey, which included relocating from New York to Florida at the beginning of the Covid outbreak, but also features chapters and interviews with other transplant patients and medical professionals in this field. In doing so, she hopes to increase organ donor registration, give hope to those on the transplant waitlist, and encourage all transplant centers to have regular support group meetings like the Mayo Clinic's weekly Second Chance support group for liver and kidney transplant patients and caregivers.

Many businesses have found that the use of video allows them to better present their brand ‘voice’ and image in a way that customers will be able to relate to personally.One of the most popular types of video content is marketing content, where you will come up with a short movie that convinces customers to express interest in your brand. Some marketing videos may focus on the brand as a whole, whilst others may focus on a particular product or service. You may use actors, animations, or something else in order to put together a marketing video.Every business which has an online presence should use video content in some form or another. With video now being more and more accessible, even the smallest of businesses with the tightest of budgets can afford to use video content to some extent, even if it is just Snapchat stories or Facebook Live videos.If you’re not yet using video content for your marketing strategy, you should definitely change things starting now because even the smallest of businesses are benefiting from it now.
