Paperback. Condition: Good. Zelda Harjo's life has been in a constant tailspin due to family she loved and lost, as well as hidden family secrets. She has injected herself into other folk's families, and that has left her with consequences which torture her soul. How do we accept doing wrong sometimes in order to make things right in life? Zelda has street fighter skills, the expertise of a hustler, and a strong work ethic. Everything that's good and bad about her can and has crossed over into her sensual fires, sometimes resulting in bad decisions. She is not above compromising in mixing the good with the bad to go with her deep sense of morality that drives her in the right directions, but sometimes the mixture is done too late. Her family ties are rooted in cryptic secret relations, leaving her feeling incomplete and struggling with how to move forward in life.

She does, however, use the strength of both sides of her heritage to assist her in seeing inside of people in order to help her survive. With a surprise opportunity, Zelda's future seems to be changing, but lust, thievery, and mayhem seem to be always a hop, skip, and a leap away as she faces the legacy of her bloodline, and the reality of its dysfunctionality.

Paperback. Condition: Good. As COVID-19 made inroads in the United States in spring 2020, a common refrain rose above the din: ?We?re all in this together.? However, the full picture was far more complicated-and far less equitable. Black and Latinx populations suffered illnesses, outbreaks, and deaths at much higher rates than the general populace. Those working in low-paid jobs and those living in confined housing or communities already disproportionately beset by health problems were particularly vulnerable. The contributors to The Pandemic Divide explain how these and other racial disparities came to the forefront in 2020. They explore COVID-19?s impact on multiple arenas of daily life-including wealth, health, housing, employment, and education-while highlighting what steps could have been taken to mitigate the full force of the pandemic. Most crucially, the contributors offer concrete public policy solutions that would allow the nation to respond effectively to future crises and improve the long-term well-being of all Americans. Contributors. Fenaba Addo, Steve Amendum, Leslie Babinski, Sandra Barnes, Mary T. Bassett, Keisha Bentley-Edwards, Kisha Daniels, William A.

Paperback. Condition: Fair. Time heals some wounds.The first time Lyla Savoie Kenney found love-boundless, passionate love-it wasn't with a person but a place. She found deep-rooted endearment there, and in keeping with tradition, it caused her first real heartbreak too.Lyla grew up on the beaches at Begoa's Point, a campground she and her father visited each summer for seventeen years. She spent each non-summer month counting down the days until she could return, until going back was no longer an option. Begoa's Point closed with no explanation.Fifteen years later, now a widowed mother with a child of her own, Begoa's Point is reopening its doors. Lyla is surprised when she is abruptly moved off the waiting list and given a reservation at the camp, but even more surprising is what she finds when she arrives.Weston Accardi, the first boy Lyla ever gave her heart to, is the proud new owner of the Begoa's property.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Drapetomania was a little-known disease found among black slaves in the United States in the 1850s. The main symptom, according to medical opinion? The desire to run away from slave masters. In earlier centuries gout was understood as a metabolic disease of the affluent, so much so that it became a badge of upper-crust honor--and a medical excuse to avoid hard work. Today, is there such a thing as mental illness, or is mental illness just a myth? Is Alzheimer's really a disease? What is menopause? A biological phenomenon, or a social construction? In this successor volume to the 1981 Concepts of Health and Disease the three editors, Caplan, McCartney, and Sisti, explore how society understands and determines health, disease, and illness. The 28 classic essays are divided into four parts: Historical Discussions; Characterizing Health, Disease, and Illness; Clinical Applications of Health and Disease; and Normalcy, Genetic Disease, and Enhancement: The Future of the Concepts of Health and Disease. Drawing on a wide variety of sources--from Galen (150 CE) to Maimonedes (1150) to contemporary bioethicists and philosophers--the editors demonstrate how concepts of health and disease evolve from generation to generation--and remain, despite claims of scientific objectivity, culture and value laden. Foreword by Edmund Pellegrino, M.D., author of numerous books on philosophy and medicine. …
