Описание: As a mental health therapist contracted at a nursing home and rehab for thirteen years, I had the opportunity to observe the reactions of children visiting a loved one. My clients were those with mental health issues, various kinds of dementia, and Alzheimer's disease. Most of these would spend the rest of their lives there. It was especially disturbing to see the responses or lack of responses of the children visiting Alzheimer's patients. It was so obvious they did not understand the change in their loved one, and it made them fearful. Also, the patient, most often a grandparent, would be disturbed that the child did not respond to them as they remembered. It was even more disturbing to a child, as their loved one moved through the more advanced stages of Alzheimer's. Due to my concern for these children, I wanted to write a story that would help them understand Alzheimer's disease and dispel their fear. Where Has Grandma Gone? is a story to be read by the child. Later pages will contain information for the adult reader. The writing of this book has been my dream for many years as I've seen the need for such a book. My prayer is that this book will be of great value to all those having to deal with Alzheimer's disease. May God bless the reader and strengthen them in all their ways.
Описание: Tens of thousands of people around the world die each day from causes that could have been prevented with access to affordable health care resources. In an era of unprecedented global inequity, Cuba, a small, low-income country, is making a difference by providing affordable health care to millions of marginalized people. Cuba has developed a world-class health care system that provides universal access to its own citizens while committing to one of the most extensive international health outreach campaigns in the world. The country has trained thousands of foreign medical students for free under a moral agreement that they serve desperate communities. To date, over 110,000 Cuban health care workers have served overseas. Where No Doctor Has Gone Before looks at the dynamics of Cuban medical internationalism to understand the impact of Cubas programs within the global health landscape. Topics addressed include the growing moral divide in equitable access to health care services, with a focus on medical tourism and Cubas alternative approach to this growing trend. Also discussed is the hidden curriculum in mainstream medical education that encourages graduates to seek lucrative positions rather than commit to service for the marginalized. The author shows how Cubas Escuela Latinoamericana de Medicina (ELAM) serves as a counter to this trend. An acknowledgement of Cubas tremendous commitment, the book reveals a compelling model of global health practice that not only meets the needs of the marginalized but facilitates an international culture of cooperation and solidarity.

Описание: Post-Migratory Cultures in Postcolonial France offers a critical assessment of the ways in which French writers, filmmakers, musicians and other artists descended from immigrants from former colonial territories bring their specificity to bear on the bounds and applicability of French republicanism, "Frenchness" and national identity, and contemporary cultural production in France.
When Lieutenant Uhura took her place on the bridge of the Starship Enterprise on Star Trek, the actress Nichelle Nichols went where no African American woman had ever gone before. Yet several decades passed before many other black women began playing significant roles in speculative (i.e., science fiction, fantasy, and horror) film and television—a troubling omission, given that these genres offer significant opportunities for reinventing social constructs such as race, gender, and class. Challenging cinema’s history of stereotyping or erasing black women on-screen, Where No Black Woman Has Gone Before showcases twenty-first-century examples that portray them as central figures of action and agency.
Writing for fans as well as scholars, Diana Adesola Mafe looks at representations of black womanhood and girlhood in American and British speculative film and television, including 28 Days Later, AVP: Alien vs. Predator, Children of Men, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Firefly, and Doctor Who: Series 3. Each of these has a subversive black female character in its main cast, and Mafe draws on critical race, postcolonial, and gender theories to explore each film and show, placing the black female characters at the center of the analysis and demonstrating their agency. The first full study of black female characters in speculative film and television, Where No Black Woman Has Gone Before shows why heroines such as Lex in AVP and Zoë in Firefly are inspiring a generation of fans, just as Uhura did.
