Summary

"Infectious Disease Control" tackles the urgent issue of managing infectious diseases in an era of rising antimicrobial resistance and emerging pathogens. The book underscores the critical role of public health interventions, epidemiology, and microbiology in combating disease transmission. Highlighting the historical context, it traces the evolution of control measures from sanitation to vaccines, while also examining the alarming increase in antimicrobial resistance due to overuse of antibiotics, impacting our ability to treat common infections. Social and economic factors that influence disease susceptibility are also considered. The book uniquely advocates for a multi-faceted approach, emphasizing the need to strengthen surveillance systems, promote responsible antimicrobial use through antimicrobial stewardship, and enhance infection control practices within healthcare settings. By integrating these strategies, the book argues, we can more effectively combat resistant organisms and prepare for future pandemics. Progressing through its chapters, the book first establishes a scientific foundation with core concepts, then explores specific control strategies like vaccination programs, and concludes with a discussion of emerging diseases, pandemic preparedness, and ethical considerations. This resource is designed for public health professionals, healthcare providers, and students, presenting evidence-based strategies and case studies to illustrate best practices. It uniquely emphasizes systems thinking and collaboration across various sectors—healthcare, agriculture, education—to address infectious disease control comprehensively. The approach blends academic rigor with practical application, making it accessible to a broad audience.

    “When today’s technology relies on yesterday’s data, it will simply mirror our past mistakes and biases.” 
    AI and other high-tech tools embed and reinforce America’s history of prejudice and exclusion — even when they are used with the best intentions. Patrick K. Lin’s Machine See, Machine Do: How Technology Mirrors Bias in Our Criminal Justice System takes a deep and thorough look into the use of technology in the criminal justice system, and investigates the instances of coded bias present at every level. 
    In this book, you’ll learn how algorithms and high-tech tools are used in unexpected ways: suggesting which neighborhoods to police, predicting whether someone is more or less likely to commit a crime, and determining how long someone’s prison sentence should be. 
    Machine See, Machine Do takes you on an eye-opening journey of discovery, encouraging you to think twice about our current system of justice and the technology that supposedly makes it more “objective” and “fair.” If you are someone who cares deeply about criminal justice reform, is curious about the role of technology in our day-to-day lives, and ultimately believes we should aspire to make both of these spaces more ethical and safe, this book is for you.

    “Lake Michigan may be coming to Idaho.” 
    That’s what an Idaho radio commentator said in June 2021. Holding approximately 20% of the world’s surface freshwater, the Great Lakes are once again a target for the drought-ridden West, which is facing climate change, massive fires, and shrinking water supplies. And in a potentially far bigger threat, Wall Street is creating markets that could lead to the trading of freshwaters as a commodity like corn or oil. The Great Lakes are in danger of becoming privately exploited on a large scale by those who have priorities other than stewardship. 
    In the updated edition of Great Lakes for Sale, author Dave Dempsey offers surprising, even controversial, ideas on how to prevent the fulfillment of this nightmare scenario. They include attacking water commercialization, curbing abuse of the Great Lakes Compact, and devising plans for limited sharing of the Great Lakes to forestall humanitarian disasters. If the Great Lakes are to remain great, new thinking and action will be required.
