Book Synopsis A Thousand Naked Strangers by : Kevin Hazzard
Download or read book A Thousand Naked Strangers written by Kevin Hazzard and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A former paramedic’s "thrilling, captivating" (Booklist), and mordantly funny account of a decade spent as a first responder in Atlanta saving lives and connecting with the drama and occasional beauty that lies inside catastrophe. In the aftermath of 9/11 Kevin Hazzard felt that something was missing from his life—his days were too safe, too routine. A failed salesman turned local reporter, he wanted to test himself, see how he might respond to pressure and danger. He signed up for emergency medical training and became, at age twenty-six, a newly minted EMT running calls in the worst sections of Atlanta. His life entered a different realm—one of blood, violence, and amazing grace. Thoroughly intimidated at first and frequently terrified, he experienced on a nightly basis the adrenaline rush of walking into chaos. But in his downtime, Kevin reflected on how people’s facades drop away when catastrophe strikes. As his hours on the job piled up, he realized he was beginning to see into the truth of things. There is no pretense five beats into a chest compression, or in an alley next to a crack den, or on a dimly lit highway where cars have collided. Eventually, what had at first seemed impossible happened: Kevin acquired mastery. And in the process he was able to discern the professional differences between his freewheeling peers, what marked each—as he termed them—as “a tourist,” “true believer,” or “killer.” Combining indelible scenes that remind us of life’s fragile beauty with laugh-out-loud moments that keep us smiling through the worst, A Thousand Naked Strangers is an absorbing read about one man’s journey of self-discovery—a trip that also teaches us about ourselves.
Book Synopsis Paramedics On and Off the Streets by : Michael K. Corman
Download or read book Paramedics On and Off the Streets written by Michael K. Corman and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Paramedics On and Off the Streets, Michael K. Corman embarks on an institutional ethnography of the complex, mundane, intricate, and exhilarating work of paramedics in Calgary, Alberta. Corman’s comprehensive research includes more than 200 hours of participant observation ride-alongs with paramedics over a period of eleven months, more than one hundred first hand interviews with paramedics, and thirty-six interviews with other emergency medical personnel including administrators, call-takers and dispatchers, nurses, and doctors. At the heart of this ethnography are questions about the role of paramedics in urban environments, the role of information and communication technologies in contemporary health care governance, and the organization and accountability of pre-hospital medical services. Paramedics On and Off the Streets is the first institutional ethnography to explore the role and increasing importance of paramedics in our healthcare system. It takes readers on a journey into the everyday lives of EMS personnel and provides an in-depth sociological analysis of the work of pre-hospital health care professionals in the twenty-first century.
Book Synopsis Driving the Saudis by : Jayne Amelia Larson
Download or read book Driving the Saudis written by Jayne Amelia Larson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true-to-life account of a female chauffeur hired to drive the Saudi royal family in Los Angeles. After more than a decade of working in Hollywood, actress Jayne Amelia Larson found herself out of luck, out of work, and out of prospects. When she got hired to drive for the Saudi royal family vacationing in Beverly Hills, Larson thought she’d been handed the golden ticket. She’d heard stories of the Saudis bestowing $20,000 tips and Rolex watches on their drivers, but when the family arrived at LAX with twenty million dollars in cash, Larson realized that she might be in for the ride of her life. With awestruck humor and deep compassion, Larson shares the incredible insights she gained as the lone female in a detail of more than forty chauffeurs assigned to drive a beautiful Saudi princess, her family, and their extensive entourage. At its heart, this is an upstairs-downstairs, true-to-life fable for our global times; a story about the corruption that nearly infinite wealth causes, and about what we all do for money. Equal parts funny, surprising, and insightful, Driving the Saudis provides both entertainment and sharp social commentary on one of the world’s most secretive families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No one can control all the circumstances and events that come to us day by day. Oftentimes things happen which we have no control over. However, each one of us CAN control our REACTION to what transpires in our lives. We can make a conscious choice whether we will allow the events of our lives to make us BITTER or BETTER. We can become BITTER as acid---mean, sour, miserable to be with or near---or we can use (with God's grace and help) the happenings of our lives to make us more loving, kind, considerate of others---more like Jesus!" This world is on the edge of moral decay. America’s strength cannot rise above the righteousness and strength of her churches. Faithless and false leadership in the church leads to spiritual devastation and ruin not only for the leaders but for the people they lead. Many times people are balanced precariously between heaven and hell, thus, the truth must not be altered, watered down, or compromised, whether it be in the church or in the U.S. government.
