Sinossi

In "A Book of Medical Discourses, in Two Parts," Rebecca Lee Crumpler provides a groundbreaking exploration of medical care, distinctly tailored for the African American community. Written in a clear, accessible style, Crumpler's work is both an informative guide and a feminist discourse, addressing the intersection of race, gender, and health in 19th-century America. Her nuanced arguments offer insights into patient care, preventive medicine, and the social determinants of health, making this text an early contribution to public health literature and paving the way for future discussions on health equity. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first African American woman to earn a medical degree in the United States, faced significant societal obstacles, which deeply informed her perspective and practice. Born in 1831, her experience as a medical practitioner, coupled with her commitment to serving underserved populations, highlighted the systemic inequities in healthcare. Her courageous journey not only reflects her personal triumphs but also stresses the importance of accessibility in medicine for marginalized communities. This book is invaluable for scholars and healthcare professionals alike, as it provides historical context to contemporary health discussions. Crumpler's eloquent prose and passionate advocacy for the health needs of Black Americans present a crucial examination of the societal structures affecting health outcomes. Readers drawn to themes of social justice, health equity, and women's empowerment will find inspiration and insight within her pioneering work.

    Internal and external pressure continues to mount for college professionals to provide evidence of successful activities, programs, and services, which means that, going forward, nearly every campus professional will need to approach their work with a data-informed perspective. But you find yourself thinking "I am not a data person." Yes, you are. Or can be with the help of Amelia Parnell. You Are a Data Person provides context for the levels at which you are currently comfortable using data, helps you identify both the areas where you should strengthen your knowledge and where you can use this knowledge in your particular university role. For example, the rising cost to deliver high-quality programs and services to students has pushed many institutions to reallocate resources to find efficiencies. In addition to programs, services, and pedagogy, professionals are constantly monitoring the rates at which students are entering, remaining enrolled in, and leaving the institution, as those movements impact the institution's financial position. From teaching professors to student affairs personnel and beyond, Parnell offers tangible examples of how professionals can make data contributions at their current and future knowledge level, and will even inspire listeners to take the initiative to engage in data projects.

    Did you know New Zealand was the first country to offer universal suffrage? 
    Many people today only started dreaming of visiting New Zealand after discovering it was the beautiful filming place of the Lord of the Rings series. However, ignoring the two islands in the Pacific Ocean is not a modern thing. The remote lands of New Zealand were the last large, livable lands to be discovered, inhabited, and colonized. 
    Since the Polynesians (the first humans in New Zealand who would become known as the Māori) were the most modern humans to settle in an uninhabited land, it is no surprise New Zealand has always been ahead of its time. Despite its late settlement, New Zealand has been one of the most rapidly modernizing nations in the world. New Zealand was the first country to introduce full democracy, women’s suffrage, state pensions, and state housing. New Zealand has a history unlike any other nation, from its late inhabitation to its unusually respectful colonization, involving hundreds of Māori chiefs signing an agreement to allow European settlement. 
    Although New Zealand was the last inhabited country and one of the most isolated developed regions in the world, it has been significantly involved in historical events, adding even more interest to its complex and rich history. 
    Intrigued? Pick up this audiobook to learn more about the following:Extinct animals that used to call New Zealand home;The arrival of the Polynesians and what that meant for the region;The early European explorations and who is credited with discovering the island nation;Colonization efforts and their impact on the Māori;How New Zealand was run under European control;The progressive changes that took place;And so much more!
