Summary

"Dropout Reason Patterns" explores the complex issue of why many students leave law school, moving beyond simple explanations like academic struggles. It examines the psychological impact of legal education, the weight of financial strain from tuition and student loan debt, and the role of unmet expectations. The book uniquely combines psychology, economics, and education to understand law school attrition. One key insight is how the intense pressure of law school, including the Socratic method and competitive grading, can lead to anxiety and burnout. Another is the clash between idealized views of the legal profession and the realities of practice, causing disillusionment. Addressing these interconnected challenges requires comprehensive support systems. The book presents a multifaceted approach, analyzing data from student surveys and interviews, and proposing strategies like enhanced mental health support and realistic career counseling. The book is structured to provide a comprehensive analysis of law school attrition, beginning by introducing the core concepts of mental health, financial burden, academic performance, and mismatched expectations. Subsequent sections delve into psychological stressors, economic realities, and unmet expectations, culminating in practical strategies for law schools to mitigate attrition. It seeks to offer a data-driven point of view on law school attrition, bridging the gap between academics, administrators, and students.

    Amid growing international concerns about income inequality, labor abuses, racial injustice, and disinformation online, Conscience Incorporated examines the gaps in current corporate social responsibility measures and what more needs be done to address these challenges. The rise of new technologies such as smartphones and social media have made it easier than ever to document and spread awareness of corporate actions.

    Drawing from research into the history of business ethics, Michael Posner provides a blueprint for global business leaders to navigate human rights challenges and adopt sustainable corporate practices.

    Psychopathy - A Personality...

    Psychopathy is a complex personality disorder characterized by a unique set of emotional, interpersonal, and behavioral traits. Individuals with psychopathy often exhibit a profound lack of empathy, manipulativeness, and an inability to form deep emotional connections. They are skilled at deception and can appear charming and charismatic, which allows them to navigate social situations with ease while hiding their true nature. 
    One of the most defining traits of psychopathy is emotional detachment. Psychopaths do not experience emotions in the same way that most people do. While they may understand emotions on an intellectual level, they lack the ability to genuinely feel them, particularly emotions such as guilt, remorse, or love. This emotional deficit makes them highly adept at exploiting others without any sense of moral conflict. They can feign emotions convincingly, using charm and flattery to manipulate those around them for personal gain. 
    Manipulativeness is another hallmark of psychopathy. Psychopaths use deception and persuasion to control others, often without their victims realizing it. They are highly strategic and will adjust their behavior based on what benefits them the most in a given situation. Because they lack empathy, they do not hesitate to lie, cheat, or deceive if it serves their interests.

    In this searing, honest memoir, a Black queer emergency-room nurse works the front lines of care during COVID-19. 
     
     
     
    Britney Daniels is a Black, masculine-presenting, tattooed lesbian from a working-class background. For the last five years, she has been working as an emergency-room nurse. She began Journal of a Black Queer Nurse as a personal diary, a tool to heal from the day-to-day traumas of seeing too much and caring too much. 
     
     
     
    Hilarious, gut-wrenching, and infuriating by turns, these stories are told from the perspective of a deeply empathetic, no-nonsense young nurse, who highlights the way race, inequality, and a profit-driven healthcare system make the hospital a place where systemic racism is lived. 
     
     
     
    Whether it is giving one's own clothes to a homeless patient, sticking up for patients of color in the face of indifference from white doctors and nurses, or nursing one's own back pain accrued from transporting too many bodies, Journal of a Black Queer Nurse reveals the ways in which care is much more than treating a physical body and how the commitment to real care—care that involves listening to and understanding patients in a deeper sense—demands nurses, especially nurses of color, must also be warriors.

What is their secret? What sets great Catholic schools apart from mediocre ones?The Catholic School Playbook by Michael Ortner and Kimberly Begg documents how these successful schools are bucking the trend by focusing on their rich Catholic heritage and cultivating strong communities of students, families, and educators. In seven concise and easy-to-read chapters exploring how these schools approach their mission, hiring, teachers, finances, and more, this book offers a practical gameplan for renewing Catholic education in America.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "The Remains of the Day" by Kazuo Ishiguro tells the story of Stevens, an aging butler, as he embarks on a road trip in 1956. The journey becomes a backdrop for his memories, particularly his past service to Lord Darlington and his relationship with the housekeeper, Miss Kenton. The book explores themes of dignity, duty, and the nature of greatness through Stevens’s reflections. He grapples with the meaning of his life, questioning if his rigid adherence to his professional ideals came at the cost of personal fulfillment. The narrative unfolds as a witty and poignant meditation on the responsibilities of an ordinary man, set against the backdrop of historical events.
