  The Second History of Man

  MD John Bershof

  • 0

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Second History of Man focuses mostly on bacteria and bacterial infections as the foundation, jumping off into Darwin and evolution, gin & tonics and the discovery of the first antibiotic to treat infection (and it wasn’t penicillin), visiting with those clever chaps who cook up drugs in the lab. We’ll call upon poets & poetry, celebrities like Frank Sinatra, the Rat Pack, and Bobby Darin, the classical music of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, the tragic story of World War II, Anne Frank and the Holocaust, tuberculosis, and a few of the rich & famous who suffered from TB, travelling back in time to the Black Death which wiped out 25 percent of humans on Earth, exploring the origins of a salon and a saloon, Columbus and the Age of Discovery, the lost generations of childhood, ending with the invention of the Internet.

  In Love in a Time of Climate Change: Honoring Creation, Establishing Justice, author Sharon Delgado invites readers to embark on a deepening journey of faith that integrates personal spirituality with action for climate justice. The book explains and demonstrates a process of discernment through which to reflect on the challenge of climate change and to discern a faithful response based on Jesus’s teaching to love God above all and our neighbors as ourselves.  
  This revised edition updates the facts. It presents what climate scientists say now about our rapidly heating planet, its causes, impacts, progression, and likely future scenarios. It describes the global movement for climate justice and engages with major conversations taking place about climate change today.  
  This edition builds on the book’s primary themes. Its premise is that in this time of climate change, loving God must include honoring God’s creation and loving our neighbors must include working to establish justice. We are called to honor and care for creation, the interconnected community of life of which we humans are a part, because creation is an expression of the presence and love of God. We are called to work to establish justice because in this time of globalized environmental harm we can’t always see the links of interdependence, responsibility, and systemic exploitation that tie us to our global neighbors. Working for climate justice for the wellbeing of all is an expression of loving our neighbors, near and far, present and future. 
  This book is an invitation to move beyond self-preoccupation and to expand our understanding of who we are and why we are here on this incomparable planet in this time of unprecedented challenge. Love in a Time of Climate Change offers a way to rise to the occasion: to face the truth about the realities of climate change, follow the light, and live with love into the future as children of the earth, children of the universe, children of God.

  The Urban-Rural Divide -...

  The urban-rural divide is a concept that encompasses the differences between urban and rural areas in terms of population, economy, infrastructure, social services, and quality of life. As the world has rapidly urbanized in the past few centuries, the divide has grown wider, shaping the way people experience and interact with the world around them. Understanding the urban-rural divide requires looking not just at geographical distinctions but also at the historical, social, and economic forces that have led to the creation of these disparities. 
  At its core, the urban-rural divide refers to the uneven distribution of resources, opportunities, and access to services. Urban areas, often characterized by their dense population, advanced infrastructure, and proximity to economic opportunities, tend to attract people from rural areas in search of better livelihoods. On the other hand, rural areas are often defined by their smaller populations, agricultural economies, and more limited access to healthcare, education, and technological advancements. Over time, this gap has widened as cities have grown into centers of global commerce, culture, and innovation, leaving rural communities to face challenges such as depopulation, economic stagnation, and a lack of essential services. 
  This divide is not just a modern phenomenon. Historically, the urban-rural relationship has been shaped by factors like industrialization, the rise of agriculture, and migration patterns. During the Industrial Revolution, for example, many people from rural areas flocked to cities in search of work, marking a key moment in the expansion of the urban-rural divide. These migration patterns have continued in the present day, with rural populations in many countries continuing to shrink as more people move to urban centers for better prospects.
