Taking Myself Apart and Putting People Together (Finding Love, Happiness, and Yourself through Motivation) By Dr. María Delua Sáenz and Sylvia Sáenz M.Ed.
This book consists mostly of my mother’s notes of the metaphysical classes she taught as well as her massage classes, and other classes she took. A few parts were channeled. Do your own research to verify facts. My mom told me after she graduated to heaven “let go” in my dream. I thought it meant to release the past and memories of her but then I realized after a year when I did let go, I got closer to her Spirit and received a deeper connection. This book is in honor of my mom who graduated to heaven and is still alive. Her greatest desire was to help as many people as possible. She wanted to write this book to let others know her story of pain, and how she got through her pain. By doing this, she felt it would inspire others in their journey of life to push through their pain and find the meaning of life by finding themselves and truly loving themselves.
Public Health Ethics: Cases Spanning the Globe
This Open Access book highlights the ethical issues and dilemmas that arise in the practice of public health. It is also a tool to support instruction, debate, and dialogue regarding public health ethics. Although the practice of public health has always included consideration of ethical issues, the field of public health ethics as a discipline is a relatively new and emerging area. There are few practical training resources for public health practitioners, especially resources which include discussion of realistic cases which are likely to arise in the practice of public health. This work discusses these issues on a case to case basis and helps create awareness and understanding of the ethi...

The Medicine of Memory
An American Book Award winner’s creative memoir “traces his own family's history, as well as the long story of Hispanics in America . . . Spirited writing” (Library Journal). People who live in California deny the past, asserts Alejandro Murguía. In a state where what matters is keeping up with the current trends, fads, or latest computer gizmo, no one has the time, energy, or desire to reflect on what happened last week, much less what happened ten years ago, or a hundred. From this oblivion of memory, he continues, comes a false sense of history, a deluded belief that the way things are now is the way they have always been. In this work of creative nonfiction, Murguía draws on memo...
Soldier for Equality

However, Luz found that prejudice followed him e...
Vaccines: A Biography
Why another book about vaccines? There are already a few extremely well-written medical textbooks that provide comprehensive, state-of-the-art technical reviews regarding vaccine science. Additionally, in the past decade alone, a number of engrossing, provocative books have been published on various related issues ra- ing from vaccines against specific diseases to vaccine safety and policy. Yet there remains a significant gap in the literature – the history of vaccines. Vaccines: A Biography seeks to fill a void in the extant literature by focusing on the history of vaccines and in so doing, recounts the social, cultural, and scientific history of vaccines; it places them within their natu...
