Synopsis

"Infectious Diseases: The Invisible War" offers a comprehensive exploration of the complex world of pathogens, plagues, and pandemics that have shaped human history and continue to challenge our existence. This captivating journey delves into three key areas: the historical impact of infectious diseases, the intricate mechanisms of pathogen-host interactions, and the global challenges of disease control in the modern era.

 
The book traces the arc of human-pathogen coexistence from ancient civilizations to the present day, providing readers with essential context and insights into the fundamental principles of microbiology, immunology, and epidemiology. It examines major historical outbreaks like the Black Death and the 1918 influenza pandemic, highlighting how these events have driven scientific advancement and shaped societies. The narrative culminates in an analysis of contemporary challenges, including emerging zoonotic diseases and the looming crisis of antimicrobial resistance.

 
What sets this book apart is its holistic approach, examining the broader ecological and social contexts in which diseases emerge and spread. By balancing scientific rigor with narrative engagement, "Infectious Diseases" offers readers a nuanced understanding of the ongoing, dynamic struggle between humans and pathogens, emphasizing the critical importance of continued research, global cooperation, and public health initiatives in safeguarding humanity against both known and emerging infectious threats.

    The slow violence being inflicted on our environment—through everything from carbon emissions to plastic pollution—also represents an impending public health catastrophe. Yet standard health care practices are more concerned with short-term outcomes than long-term sustainability. Every resource used to deliver medical care, from IV tubes to antibiotics to electricity, has a significant environmental impact. This raises an urgent ethical dilemma: in striving to improve the health outcomes of individual patients, are we damaging human health on a global scale? 
     
     
      
    In Dying Green, award-winning educator Christine Vatovec offers an engaging study that asks us to consider the broader environmental sustainability of health care. Through a comparative analysis of the care provided to terminally ill patients in a conventional cancer ward, a palliative care unit, and an acute-care hospice facility, she shows how decisions made at a patient's bedside govern the environmental footprint of the healthcare industry. Likewise, Dying Green offers insights on the many opportunities that exist for reducing the ecological impacts of medical practices in general, while also enhancing care for the dying in particular. By envisioning a more sustainable approach to care, this book offers a way forward that is better for both patients and the planet.

    Can affordable housing make the American Dream an American reality?The American Dream has always been built on the notion that no matter where you come from, you can be successful. Housing has always played a major role in making the American Dream a reality, but how exactly? In American Dream Come True, Tony Bertoldi leverages over two decades’ worth of experience in affordable housing to explain in clear and entertaining prose what affordable housing really is and who it impacts. Spoiler alert: all of us.By debunking the common misconceptions about affordable housing, Bertoldi shows how supporting affordable housing is a benefit for the entire American ecosystem, and where you fit in. From addressing inflation, job creation, and creative ESG strategy, to reducing health costs for American taxpayers, Bertoldi shows how the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC, pronounced LI-Tec) program creates a more balanced society where people from all backgrounds can work, live, and contribute to their community.If there is any truth to the phrase “home is where the heart is,” then the call to action for all of us is the same—to put our heart into creating more affordable homes. It’s good for individuals. Good for families. Good for health. Good for business. Good for America.
