How and why did humans begin to treat sick and injured animals? And how did those practices, and the associated attitudes, evolve from prehistory to the present day? To answer these questions, Dr. Schott shares stories of twenty-two different animal healers and veterinarians from across eras and continents, examining the always fascinating, often unexpected, and sometimes hilarious veterinary methods employed by these people and their colleagues. But at the heart of the tale lies the evolution of the human-animal bond, which has been more cyclical than linear. James Herriot will be familiar to many people, but most of the other featured vets will be new. They range from Palakapya, who treated fighting elephants in India almost 3,000 years ago, to Dr. Louis Camuti, who had the first feline house call practice anywhere, tending to the cats of celebrities in mid-twentieth-century Manhattan. Along the way, we see every kind of person trying to heal every kind of creature. Whether you have a passion for animals, the history of the medical sciences, or just quirky history, this light-hearted exploration of the empathetic relationship between man and beast will entertain and delight.Ver libro
Ecology is the branch of biology that deals with the relationships between living organisms and their interactions with their environment. This scientific discipline explores how organisms coexist within ecosystems, interact with one another, and adapt to their surroundings. The study of ecology is vital because it provides insight into the functioning of natural systems and the impact human activities have on the environment. It emphasizes the interdependence of all life forms, from microscopic bacteria to the largest animals, and underscores the intricate balance necessary for sustaining life on Earth. At its core, ecology is concerned with understanding the distribution and abundance of organisms, as well as the processes that shape these patterns. It is a multidisciplinary field that draws from biology, geography, geology, chemistry, and physics. Ecologists examine how factors such as climate, geography, and natural resources influence the diversity of life in different habitats. They also study the effects of human intervention, such as deforestation, pollution, and climate change, on ecosystems.Ver libro
In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, trust in the healthcare system seems to be at an all-time low. Conspiracy theories are now mainstream, and distrust of government health agencies is common among private citizens. Yet many of those same individuals still profess trust in their doctors. What, then, is driving the general mistrust in medicine, and how can the public's faith be restored? The Anatomy of Deception investigates the cause behind this seeming uptick in distrust by tracing the unexpected connection between medical mistrust and the move toward far right ideology in the United States. Drawing on personal qualitative research and interviews, health writer and expert Sara Gorman challenges traditional concepts of medical mistrust and argues that the loss of institutional trust in American health care signals a larger breakdown in democracy as a whole. In six short chapters, Gorman advances the idea of medical mistrust not as a byproduct of personal or historical abuses but as a direct result of bias, miscommunication, and lack of access that has slowly eroded trust in the public health system over time. She argues that we can build back trust in medicine through investments in health equity as a first step towards healing the schisms present in modern American society.Ver libro
