...Kobie Lofton Mark Pachankis 2nd Period 12/1/15 Chapter Summaries Prologue Diamond wonders why Eurasia presided over other cultures. The question was answered with racial intelligence differences and environmental differences. He also talks about survival of the fittest. He says that intelligence is closely linked to human and cultural survival. All of these questions would be answered by the end of the book. Part One: - From Eden to Cajamarca Chapter 1. Up to the Starting Line Evolution is explained, relating us and our “ancestors” of many centuries ago. Primates such as gorillas are said to be our closest relatives. Africa presides as the homeland for all species. Neanderthals have always been viewed as mindless, mentally deranged creatures. Fifty years ago, The Great Leap Forward was like a big advancement in technology. Hominids also began to spread across New Guinea and Australia. The larger animals that failed to attain protection qualities against other predators during evolution died out and became extinct. Eurasia also occured. It became the more advanced between them and Africa, although Africa started out on top. Chapter 2. A Natural Experiment of History The Maori and Moriori descended from Polynesians,...

The text has been updated to include current information on rapidly developing topics, such as HIV and AIDS (vaccine efforts and all the new anti-HIV medications), Ebola virus, Hantavirus, E. coli outbreaks, Mad Cow Disease, and brand-new antimicrobial antibiotics. The mnemonics and cartoons in this book do not intend disrespect for any particular patient population or racial or ethnic group but are solely presented as memory devices to assist in the learning of a complex and important medical subject. We welcome suggestions for future editions. 1) Write in a conversational style for rapid assimilation. 2) Include numerous figures serving as "visual memory tools" and summary charts at the end of each chapter. These can be used for "cram sessions" after the concepts have been studied in the text. 3) Concentrate more on clinical and infectious disease issues that are both interesting and vital to the actual practice of medicine.

...conscionable to believe. The atrocities Deo faced fleeing Ethnic wars, civil wars and genocide were astonishing and Kidder wanted to tell Deo’s story. Summary of “The Strength That Remains” Deo grew up in a mountain village of Kigutu, to a family of cow herders. He was lucky to receive childhood education and was brought up to work hard. Recalling going to school and working to feed the family at such a young age seemed to be a normal course of life for Burundian children. His single-story grade school in Sangaza was strict, not many families had money to send their children to school. If a child was late or did not come to class with homework, they were disciplined with a eucalyptus branch. Other forms of punishment were hard pinches to a student’s arms or cheeks, being hit with a ruler or hold a rock over your head for the entire school to see. As a boy, Deo, lost many childhood friends, classmates, and neighbors growing up, even his best friend, Clovis, died suddenly of malaria. As Deo watched as his close friend die, Clovis was being treated by a “Doctor” in the village. This type of person is known as an herbalist, not a medical Doctor. Deo thought to himself, “what was killing his friend?” what could he do? He prayed and asked God for magic to resurrect his friend. It really affected him. Deo was also affected by malaria, but survived because he was treated in a hospital. Deo excelled in middle school and was admitted to one of Burundi’s best high schools. At the end of...

...Shadow of the Sun Essay Political, Social, and Economic The Shadow of the Sun displays many aspects that were political, social, and economic. The book presented a political view when Kapuscinski stated that colonialism reigned in Africa (1844-45) during which several European states divided the whole continent among themselves, and this persisted until Africa won its independence. Ghana was the first country to win its independence south of the Sahara. Kwame Nkrumah Osagyeto the Prime Minister of the country helped them gain it. He was a young activist who received education from Europe and America and when he returned he put together political parties with some World War II combatants as well as the young, and at a rally he issued a war cry: Independence now. Ten years later Ghana was independent and Accra became the center of all movements, ideas and activities for the entire continent. Each social group in Africa has its own distinct culture, beliefs, and languages. Africans believe in the coexistence of three different yet related worlds. They also apprehended time differently, they believed that a mysterious energy circulates through the world, and if it draws near and fills us up, it will give us the strength to set time into motion-something will start to happen. They lived in small groups, clans, and tribes. Living and moving in small groups allowed them to flee danger more easily and survive.
