Summary

Salt Fish Trading explores the surprisingly significant role of salt fish trading in shaping the socio-economic landscapes of coastal communities globally. Delving into maritime history and economic anthropology, the book reveals how a simple preservation technique became a catalyst for complex trade routes and influenced family structures. The book highlights how salt fish wasn't merely a commodity; it was a driver of economic development, with families adapting to the demands of the industry. It also examines how this small-scale industry shaped broader economic and social trends.

 
The book presents a historical context, tracing the origins of salt fish preservation and its spread across different regions. Did you know that environmental factors and technological advancements significantly influenced salt fish production and processing methods?

 
The book is structured into three parts, starting with foundational concepts, then moving into case studies, and finally synthesizing findings to draw broader conclusions about the socio-economic impact. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the trade's influence, making it valuable for those interested in the history of food, trade, and family dynamics.

    Layal Liverpool spent years bouncing from doctor to doctor, each one failing to diagnose her dermatological complaint. Just when she'd grown used to the idea that she had an extremely rare and untreatable skin condition, one dermatologist, after a quick exam, told her that she had a classic (and common) case of eczema and explained that it often appears differently on darker skin. Her experience stuck with her, making her wonder whether other medical conditions might be going undiagnosed in darker-skinned people and whether racism could, in fact, make people sick. 
     
     
     
    The pandemic taught us that diseases like Covid disproportionately affect people of color. Here, Liverpool goes a step further to show that this disparity exists for all types of illness and that it is caused by racism. In Systemic, she shares her journey to show how racism, woven into our societies, as well as into the structures of medicine and science, is harmful to our health. Refuting the false belief that there are biological differences between races, she goes on to show that racism-related stress and trauma can however, lead to biological changes that make people of color more vulnerable to illness, debunking the myth of illness as the great equalizer. Liverpool reveals the fatal stereotypes that keep people of color undiagnosed, untreated, and unsafe, and tells us what we can do about it.

    A NEW MONEY STORY: The Beliefs, Behaviors, and Brain Science to Rewire for Wealth 
    Book Summary 
    Neuroscientists estimate that over 90 percent of our operating systems—beliefs, behaviors, patterns—are 
    unconscious. Since the surface story determines less than 10 percent of our decisions, how can we 
    illuminate the shadow story responsible for over 90 percent of what we do each day? Once we 
    systematically understand our relationship with money, our individual meanings and symbolism, can we 
    overcome the mind and brain’s resistance to change? 
    A NEW MONEY STORY: The Beliefs, Behaviors, and Brain Science to Rewire for Wealth will help you 
    recognize, own, and assess each component of your money story. You can then decide what to change, 
    map changes, author new storylines, and even program the changes to transform core identity to make it 
    complete and lasting. This systematic stepwise process to inform and strategically catalyze behavior 
    change will rewrite mind software and revise brain hardware of money stories as they are interwoven with 
    life, wellness, relationship, and career stories. These behavior, mind, and brain changes offer long-term 
    successful strategies, and even can crystallize a vision of your future self to significantly affect positive 
    money decisions.
