  DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
  This is a summary & it does not accompany the official. 
  "Never Enough" by Jennifer Breheny Wallace delves into the high-pressure world of today's students, who strive relentlessly for success and often find themselves overwhelmed. This book explores the pervasive culture of toxic achievement, where students pack their schedules with activities and face intense competition, leading to rising rates of anxiety and depression. 
  Wallace investigates the origins of this culture and its deep-seated roots in society, driven by income inequality and limited opportunities. Through interviews and research, the book highlights how children are absorbing the message that their worth is solely tied to their accomplishments. 
  However, "Never Enough" offers a different perspective, emphasizing the importance of children feeling like they matter intrinsically, regardless of their external achievements. It advocates for parents and educators to adopt a mindset that values a child's sense of self-worth and contribution to a larger community. By doing so, the book argues, children can develop resilience, self-confidence, and psychological security. 
  With insightful stories and practical guidance, "Never Enough" provides an urgent and humane perspective on the challenges facing today's teenagers and offers a framework for positive change in how we nurture and support them.

  The Mystery and Romance of...

  Dr. v. Oefele states of pharmacy before the time of Hippocrates, that although the practice of medicine was not separated from pharmacy among the Greeks and Romans, there was such a separation among the ancient Egyptians, from whom the distinction was handed down to the Copts, and by them to the Arabians; and, in fact, that the term pharmacist is probably of Egyptian origin, being derived from Ph-ar-maki, which signifies the preparation of medicine from drugs. The Egyptian pharmaki who were engaged in that occupation belonged to the higher social ranks of writers or academically-educated persons, comprising also the priests, physicians, statesmen, and military commanders. The Jews were indebted to Egypt for their primary ideas of medicine, but they cast away the ideas of demonology and magic which clouded what was good in the practice of Egypt. The Talmud recommends onions for worms, and wine, pepper, and asafœtida for flatulency. The Talmudists are responsible for calling the earth, air, fire, and water elementary bodies. In the middle ages the Jews rendered service to the healing art, and had a large share in the scientific work connected with the Arab domination of Spain. In China the use of drugs goes back to a very remote age, and alchemy was practised by the Chinese long previous to its being known in Europe. For two centuries prior to the Christian era, and for four or more subsequent, the transmutation of the base metals into gold, and the composition of the elixir of immortality, were questions ardently studied by the Chinese.

  This collection brings together three essential studies: Social Class and Mobility, Inequality and Society, and The Power of Social Networks, offering insights into how class and socioeconomic status influence opportunities, access to resources, and life outcomes. 
  Social Class and Mobility examines the structures that define social classes and the factors that enable or hinder upward mobility. It explores the barriers and opportunities for individuals to change their class status, focusing on the roles of education, wealth, race, and family background in determining one's ability to move across social hierarchies. 
  Inequality and Society analyzes the persistent and growing disparities in wealth, power, and opportunity. The book looks at the root causes of inequality and its societal consequences, examining how systemic structures perpetuate disparities and what can be done to address them. From income inequality to access to healthcare, this book discusses the multifaceted nature of social inequality and its effects on communities. 
  The Power of Social Networks explores the crucial role that social connections play in social mobility and life chances. It discusses how networks influence access to job opportunities, resources, and social capital, and how these networks can either reinforce or challenge existing social hierarchies. The book also looks at how digital and online networks are transforming traditional social structures. 
  Together, these three books offer a comprehensive understanding of the factors that shape social class, mobility, and inequality in contemporary society. They provide an in-depth look at how individuals and communities navigate the complex terrain of class and opportunity.
