Vector-Borne Diseases -...

Lilly Richardsen

Vector-borne diseases represent one of the most complex and challenging frontiers of global health. These infections, transmitted through the bites of mosquitoes, ticks, and other arthropod vectors, affect hundreds of millions of people annually and have shaped human history, migration patterns, and societal development for millennia. This comprehensive exploration delves into three of the most significant vector-borne threats—Malaria, Dengue Fever, and Lyme Disease—illuminating the sophisticated biological mechanisms, ecological dynamics, and human factors that enable these pathogens to transcend the boundaries between wildlife ecosystems and human communities.  
The story of vector-borne diseases is fundamentally a narrative of ecological relationships, where microscopic parasites and pathogens have evolved remarkable strategies to navigate between arthropod vectors and human hosts. By examining the intricate life cycles, transmission dynamics, clinical manifestations, and global impact of these diseases, this book unveils the multifaceted challenges they present to modern medicine and public health. Readers will journey through diverse landscapes—from tropical regions where Anopheles mosquitoes transmit the ancient scourge of malaria to suburban forests where ticks harbor the bacteria causing Lyme disease—discovering how climate change, urbanization, and human behavior continue to reshape the epidemiological patterns of these persistent threats. Through scientific insight, historical context, and forward-looking analysis, we explore not only the biological complexity of these pathogens but also the innovative strategies being developed to control vectors, prevent transmission, and ultimately reduce the tremendous burden these diseases impose on human communities worldwide.

Descriptions and Prescriptions -...

Michael R. Emlet

OCD, ADHD, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder . . . these are not just diagnoses from the DSM; they are part of our everyday vocabulary and understanding of people. As Christians, how should we think about psychiatric diagnoses and their associated treatments?We can't afford to isolate ourselves and simply dismiss these categories as unbiblical. Nor can we afford to accept the entire secular psychiatric diagnostic and treatment enterprise at face value as though Christian Scripture is irrelevant for these complex mental struggles. Instead, we need a balanced, biblically (and scientifically!) informed approach that is neither too warmly embracing nor too coldly dismissive of psychiatric labels and the psychiatric medications that are often prescribed.Biblical counselor and retired physician, Michael R. Emlet, gives readers a helpful way forward on these important issues as he guides lay and professional helpers in the Christian church through the thicket of mental health diagnoses and treatments in a clear, thoughtful primer in which the Bible informs our understanding of psychiatric diagnoses and the medications that are often recommended based on those labels.This first book in the Helping the Helper series will give readers biblical, gospel-formed categories that will help them understand and minister to those who are struggling with mental health issues.

Flatland: A Romance of Many...

Edwin A. Abbott

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novella by the English schoolmaster and clergyman Edwin Abbott Abbott. The story describes a two-dimensional world occupied by geometric figures, where of women are simple line-segments, while men are polygons with various numbers of sides. Written pseudonymous by "A Square", the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions. This masterpiece of science (and mathematical) fiction is a delightfully unique and highly entertaining satire that has charmed readers for more than 100 years.
