  A Georgetown professor’s look at the subjects one needs to study for a truly well-rounded education.  A Student’s Guide to Liberal Learning is an inviting conversation with a learned scholar about the content of an authentic liberal arts education. It surveys ideas and books central to the tradition of humanistic education that has fundamentally shaped our country and our civilization. This accessible volume argues for an order and integration of knowledge so that meaning might be restored to the haphazard approach to study currently dominating higher education. Freshly conveying the excitement of learning from the acknowledged masters of intellectual life, this guide is also an excellent blueprint for building one’s own library of books that matter.

  About Atomic Habits  
  We all have bad habits we’d like to get rid of and good habits we’d like to develop. But changing our habits is much easier said than done. According to James Clear, author of Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones and one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, if you’re struggling with your habits, the problem is not you. It’s your system. Without the proper system for change, you’ll never be able to meaningfully change your habits, whether bad or good. 
  Fortunately for us, Atomic Habits gives us the proven system we need for long-term habit change. And it’s easier and more straightforward than you might think. In the book, James Clear draws on well-proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits unavoidable and bad habits unappealing. He provides practical strategies that will show you precisely and formulaically how to form good habits, break bad habits, and master those tiny actions that eventually lead to extraordinary results. 
  This summary of Atomic Habits is NOT the original book and is meant to be read as a supplement to the original.

  Written by an author with plenty of experience holding a scalpel, Dr. David Schneider’s in-depth biography is an encompassing history of the practice that has leapt forward over the centuries from the dangerous guesswork of ancient Greek physicians through the world-changing “implant revolution” of the twentieth century. The Invention of Surgery explains this dramatic progress and highlights the personalities of the discipline's most dynamic historical figures. It links together the lives of the pioneering scientists who first understood what causes disease, how organs become infected or cancerous, and how surgery could powerfully intercede in people’s lives, and then shows how the rise of surgery intersected with many of the greatest medical breakthroughs of the last century, including the evolution of medical education, the transformation of the hospital from a place of dying to a habitation of healing, the development of antibiotics, and the rise of transistors and polymer science. And as Schneider argues, surgery has not finished transforming; new technologies are constantly reinventing both the practice of surgery and the nature of the objects we are permanently implanting in our bodies. Schneider considers these latest developments, asking “What’s next?” and analyzing how our conception of surgery has changed alongside our evolving ideas of medicine, technology, and our bodies.
