Beschreibung

In "A Woman's Quest: The Life of Marie E. Zakrzewska, M.D.", the author delves into the remarkable journey of one of America's pioneering female physicians, offering a rich narrative that intertwines biography with a broader commentary on gender and medicine in the 19th century. Through meticulous research and a compelling literary style, Zakrzewska's story unfolds against the backdrop of a society that often marginalized women in professional fields. The book'Äôs eloquence is enhanced by vivid anecdotes and historical context, reflecting the struggles and triumphs of a woman determined to challenge the norms of her time. Marie E. Zakrzewska, herself a trailblazer in the medical community, embodies the spirit of resilience and innovation. Her experiences as a medical student and practitioner illuminate the barriers faced by women in an era where their capabilities were frequently doubted. Her passion for women's health and education fueled her commitment to establishing facilities dedicated to these causes, making her a significant figure in the transition toward gender equity in medicine. This book is a must-read for those interested in the intersection of gender, history, and medicine. It serves as both an inspiring biography and a critical exploration of the socio-cultural dynamics that shaped women's roles in the medical field. Readers will find themselves captivated by Zakrzewska's determination and the legacy she left behind.

    We've all grown up watching fairy tales, hearing fantastical love stories, and feeling the desire to be pursued to the ends of the earth. However, for many of us, our story involves treacherous paths, uncertain futures, and battles against villains both great and small. In other words, an endless road of searching, wandering, and waiting. Leanne Rozell isn't a fairy princess who was switched at birth. A wicked stepsister didn't lock her away in an ivory tower. She didn't battle it out with a fire-breathing dragon in order to escape. And yet, through prayer, pursuit, and a whole lot of faith, she is very much living her fairy-tale dream. We often think of fairy tales in the form of a brave knight on a white horse who carries us away from all danger. But what Leanne has learned is that—whatever your story may be—it has twists and turns that we seldom expect. Our stories aren't just simply about being rescued and whisked away. They're stories of growth, stories of battling darkness, stories about finding our way in this world, and stories about trusting in the One who desires to walk through each and every battle with us. With enough faith to make it rain, He gives us a more beautiful love story than we could have ever imagined. This is a story about a girl's journey to belief in the power of "what if." What if she recklessly chased after the King, entrusting her heart to Him? What if she prayed without ceasing, believing that He would bring her the handsome prince? And what if, in that pursuit, her answer came true?

    'The best true-crime book of the year by a long stretch.'- Steve Braunias, Newsroom  
    'A series of rip-snorting yarns about gangs, drugs, fancy cars, wads of cash, violence, and guns - Aotearoa New Zealand style.' 
    - Simon Bridges 
    New Zealand is now one of the most lucrative illicit drug markets in the world. Organised crime is about making money. It's a business. But over the past 20 years, the dealers have graduated from motorcycle gangs to Asian crime syndicates and now the most dangerous drug lords in the world - the Mexican cartels. 
    In Gangland, award-winning investigative reporter Jared Savage shines a light into New Zealand's rising underworld of organised crime and violent gangs. 
    The brutal execution of a husband-and-wife; the undercover cop who infiltrated a casino VIP lounge; the midnight fishing trip which led to the country's biggest cocaine bust; the gangster who shot his best friend in a motorcycle shop: these stories go behind the headlines and open the door to an invisible world - a world where millions of dollars are made, life is cheap, and allegiances change like the flick of a switch.
