Описание: A bold new indictment of the racialization of science Decades of data cannot be ignored: African American adults are far more likely to develop Type 2 diabetes than white adults. But has science gone so far in racializing diabetes as to undermine the search for solutions? In a rousing indictment of the idea that notions of biological race should drive scientific inquiry, Sweetness in the Blood provides an ethnographic picture of biotechnology’s framings of Type 2 diabetes risk and race and, importantly, offers a critical examination of the assumptions behind the recruitment of African American and African-descent populations for Type 2 diabetes research.James Doucet-Battle begins with a historical overview of how diabetes has been researched and framed racially over the past century, chronicling one company’s efforts to recruit African Americans to test their new diabetes risk-score algorithm with the aim of increasing the clinical and market value of the firm’s technology. He considers African American reticence about participation in biomedical research and examines race and health disparities in light of advances in genomic sequencing technology. Doucet-Battle concludes by emphasizing that genomic research into sub-Saharan ancestry in fact underlines the importance of analyzing gender before attempting to understand the notion of race. No disease reveals this more than Type 2 diabetes.Sweetness in the Blood challenges the notion that the best approach to understanding, managing, and curing Type 2 diabetes is through the lens of race. It also transforms how we think about sugar, filling a neglected gap between the sugar- and molasses-sweetened past of the enslaved African laborer and the high-fructose corn syrup- and corporate-fed body of the contemporary consumer-laborer.

Описание:
Legacy of Wisdom through Poetry, thirty-one thought-provoking poems within five chapters: Motivation, Love, Life Experiences, Reality, and Inspiration. These poems convey information to the reader that will undoubtedly solicit ideas and thoughts about their personal lives and the lives of others. These poems will help instill values in your children, just by having a family reading. -Calvin J. Doucet, Author
"The writer of the poems covers a lifetime of character and values. All of the poems have life lessons built into them. Many will bring you to tears and cause you to reexamine the values we hold dear and too often take for granted. I strongly encourage all to buy, read, and reflect on these introspective poems. Buy the book also as a gift for those you love. There is something in it for everyone to both enjoy and benefit from. From engineer to poet, Calvin Doucet rocks " -Elaine L. Wilmore, Ph.D., Professor, Consultant, Mentor, and Counselor
"As a member of senior management in the electric power industry, I became keenly aware of Calvin's skill as a professional engineer. But more impressive was Calvin's commitment to touch the lives of others by serving on city boards, coaching, mentoring, or just advocating for the right cause. Again, Calvin seizes another opportunity to touch your life with poems based upon his life experiences. This compilation of poetic works will challenge the reader in ways unimaginable. I would encourage you as you read this book to sit back, put on your seat belt, and prepare to laugh, cry a little, and experience the travails of life through the rearview mirror of one who engineered, encouraged, and endured." -Ronald Bullock, CEO, Fresh Perspectives Consulting
