Book Synopsis Pharmacy on a Bicycle by : Eric Bing
Download or read book Pharmacy on a Bicycle written by Eric Bing and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2013-05-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every four minutes, over 50 children under the age of five die. In the same four minutes, 2 mothers lose their lives in childbirth. Every year, malaria kills nearly 1.2 million people, despite the fact that it can be prevented with a mosquito net and treated for less than $1.50. Sadly, this list goes on and on. Millions are dying from diseases that we can easily and inexpensively prevent, diagnose, and treat. Why? Because even though we know exactly what people need, we just can’t get it to them. They are dying not because we can’t solve a medical problem but because we can’t solve a logistics problem. In this profoundly important book, Eric G. Bing and Marc J. Epstein lay out a solution: a new kind of bottom-up health care that is delivered at the source. We need microclinics, micropharmacies, and microentrepreneurs located in the remote, hard-to-reach communities they serve. By building a new model that “scales down” to train and incentivize all kinds of health-care providers in their own villages and towns, we can create an army of on-site professionals who can prevent tragedy at a fraction of the cost of top-down bureaucratic programs. Bing and Epstein have seen the model work, and they provide example after example of the extraordinary results it has achieved in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. This is a book about taking health care the last mile—sometimes literally—to prevent widespread, unnecessary, and easily avoided death and suffering. Pharmacy on a Bicycle shows how the same forces of innovation and entrepreneurship that work in first-world business cultures can be unleashed to save the lives of millions.

Book Synopsis The People’S Choice by : Charles A. Imokhai
Download or read book The People’S Choice written by Charles A. Imokhai and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Peoples Choice illustrates the centuries of intercontinental cultural exchanges between Europe and Africa, between Britain and Nigeria, between the English and the Ijaw, and between Goodluck Jonathan and Nigeria. In this manner, The Peoples Choice claims that the story of Goodluck Jonathan is the story of Nigeria. This is how it unfolds. An illiterate farm boy, a genius in traditional arts of the Ijaw people, found his niche in science, and obtained a doctorate degree in zoology. As an assistant director, ecology in the Directorate of Environment and Pollution Control, he soon became the choice of the PDP to be the running mate of the gubernatorial candidate Chief Alamieyeseigha. Given this political exposure in 1999, he soon became the governor of Bayelsa State in 2006, the vice president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 2007, and the president and commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 2010. President Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan, GCFR, a meteoric, political, mega superstar told his compatriots that If I could make it, you too can make it. This fascinating story is the story of a Nigerian, the most powerful black man in the world, and of Nigerians, the most numerous negroid race in the planet, and of Nigeria, the nation which is the giant in the sun of Africa. Nigeria, with a population of a hundred and seventy million, has struggled to be a free sovereign nation, economic sufficient nation, and a homogeneous religious and ethnic national entity. This struggle has caused Nigeria blood and treasure. What The Peoples Choice is saying to the world is that in President Goodluck Jonathan, we, the people, have arrived.

Book excerpt: An outrageous sortie on a pre-war BSA and two obscure, obsolete Yorkshire-made, single-cylinder Panther motorbikes. Poorly funded, with little planning, the ride depends on good luck, blind loyalty and terminal optimism. The struggle is managed with a youthful naivety. This is a recollection of a youth well-spent. Love and adventure are in the air with every chapter a precarious adventure. "I was parched and scarcely able to breathe but I pushed and shoved and swore, screamed, yelled and cried and somehow I got Penelope up that bloody hill and struggled on until I could see the brick outpost over a sand dune. In the last 20 yards I bogged down again, and so leaving Penelope upright in the sand I staggered in, to the amazement of the soldiers. I beg for water"
