Poverty and the Continuing Global Health Crisis

By: Don A. Franco

In a timely and relevant work of social commentary, Poverty and the Continuing Global Health Crisis examines the problem of world poverty and its impact on health with embarrassment, while being totally cognizant of the complex issues linked to both poverty and health. Poverty continues to touch the consciousness of humanity, challenging our piety, and questioning our concerns about equality and the plight of society's least fortunate people. This book amplifies the hopelessness of the poverty stricken masses in a world of plenty, and links poverty to a chain of problems in the campaign to stop this crisis, indicting the traditional approaches that have failed to accomplish established objectives. Through a variety of examples and viewpoints, this compelling book encourages not just worldwide humanitarian groups, but individuals as well, to confront the elements of poverty if global health is to be improved or realized, while accepting the truth that success will take a long time and is dependent on collective will, commitment, governance, and a concerted unified effort in a world fraught with uncertainties. Dr. Don A. Franco has degrees in veterinary medicine and public health, and is board certified by the American College of Veterinary Preventive Medicine with an interest in the diseases transmissible from animals to man (zoonoses). He has also been an ardent advocate of the 'One Medicine' concept, convinced that the continued progression of medicine necessitates a concerted interrelatedness between veterinary medicine and human medicine in the challenging quest for the prevention and control of zoonotic diseases that the global poor are most at risk from. He has had adjunct faculty appointments at both veterinary and medical institutions, and has published extensively over the years, receiving a Superior Service Award from the Secretary of Agriculture in 1990, 'For notable authorship which has brought national and international recognition to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food Safety and Inspection Service, ' an agency that he served for twenty-five years.

Blood and Bone (A Jack Hawthorne Adventure Book #3)

By: Don Hoesel

More Archaeological Adventures from Popular Suspense Writer Don Hoesel A decade after Serpent of Moses, Jack is married to Espy and back teaching at Evanston University. They have two sons, one of whom has cystic fibrosis. Despite this challenge, life is comfortable. But that all changes when the CIA, while combing through the papers of the late Gordon Reese, uncovers the secret of Elisha's bones. Jack's world is then turned upside down by an urgent call from his old friend Duckey, who's been alerted to the CIA's probing by one of his former contacts. Jack and his family escape from their home just ahead of the CIA, and he decides to do what he should have done long ago: recover the bones and destroy them. Except the bones aren't where he left them. So now Jack is in a race, for the last time, to find the bones. And he's not the only one. Pitted against both the CIA and an organization that will kill to protect their secrets, Jack and Espy follow hard-to-decipher clues across the globe before arriving in the catacombs of Paris for a final showdown that will either save their family--or tear apart everything they hold dear forever.
