Book Synopsis The Boys of St. Jude’S by : H.E. Balinovsky
Download or read book The Boys of St. Jude’S written by H.E. Balinovsky and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-07-21 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Judes was an orphanage better known as a place where you could abandon a baby. Here, identical twins Hugo Buermann and Barry Benson were separated at birth and lived their lives unaware of each others existence until Barrys wife, Sandra, saw him with another woman. But that other woman was Hugos wife, Arabella, to whom she presented such proof that both women believe they were married to the same man, a man who had an allergy to chocolate. Sandra, threatened to kill him, but Arabella decided that she would poison him with the chocolates he could not resist. And so a murder was built on coincidence and suspicion. From London to Marbella, a series of coincidences reinforced suspicion and suspicion engendered yet more coincidence, like a serpent devouring its own tail until it unwittingly drew in all the boys of St. Judes.
Download or read book St Jude's written by Gemma Sisia and published by Macmillan Publishers Aus.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St Jude's is the remarkable story of an Australian girl from the bush who's busy transforming the lives of hundreds, if not thousands, of African children. Her name is Gemma Sisia, and she runs a school in Tanzania called The School of St Jude. Gemma's idea is simple. Her school is for the very poorest kids, the ones whose families can't afford the clothes or books or even pencils to send their children to the supposedly "free" government schools. These are the children of illiterate parents, whose destiny is to remain trapped in a cycle of poor education, illiteracy and poverty. Her slogan is "fighting poverty through education".Gemma started St Jude's (named after the patron saint of hopeless causes) in 2002 with an 18-year-old volunteer teacher from Sydney, three kids and her own boundless energy. From those humble beginnings, the school now has over 850 students, and one of the best academic records in the country. There are plans for a second campus, and a long term aim of reproducing the hugely successful formula across Tanzania and East Africa. St Jude's is an astonishing success for kids who would otherwise have no hope and no future. This is a truly amazing story about how the determination of one person can help change the world.
Book Synopsis Thank You, St. Jude by : Robert A. Orsi
Download or read book Thank You, St. Jude written by Robert A. Orsi and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Jude, patron saint of hopeless causes, is the most popular saint of the American Catholic laity, particularly among women. This fascinating book describes how the cult of St. Jude originated in 1929, traces the rise in Jude's popularity over the next decades, and investigates the circumstances that led so many Catholic women to feel hopeless and to turn to St. Jude for help. Robert A. Orsi tells us that the women who were drawn to St. Jude--daughters and granddaughters of immigrants from southern and eastern Europe and Ireland--were the first generations of Catholic women to make lives for themselves outside of their ethnic enclaves. Orsi explores the ambitions and dilemmas of these women as they dealt with the pressures of the Depression and the Second World War, made modern marriages for themselves, entered the workplace, took care of relatives in their old neighborhoods, and raised children in circumstances very different from those of their mothers and grandmothers. Drawing on testimonies written in the periodicals devoted to St. Jude and on interviews with women who felt their lives were changed by St. Jude's intervention, Orsi shows how devotion to St. Jude enabled these women to negotiate their way amid the conflicting expectations of their two cultures--American and Catholic.

Book Synopsis Pan-African Issues in Drugs and Drug Control by : Anita Kalunta-Crumpton
Download or read book Pan-African Issues in Drugs and Drug Control written by Anita Kalunta-Crumpton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular ’war on drugs’ rhetoric postulates drug use in the West as the product of the drug production and trafficking roles of non-western societies and non-western peoples within and outside the West. In such rhetoric, African societies and people of African descent in Africa and in Diaspora have received criticisms for their respective roles in drug production and drug trafficking, including the position of many African countries as transit routes for drugs exported to the West. By contrast, the abuse of drugs by populations of African origin around the globe and the harmful consequences of the drug trade and drug abuse on these populations has been little studied. Drawing on contributions from seven countries in Africa; two countries in Europe; and seven countries in the Americas, this volume examines the relationships between drug use, drug trafficking, drug controls and the black population of a given society. Each chapter examines the nature and pattern of drug use or abuse; the effects of drug use or abuse (illegal or/and legal) on other areas such as health and crime; the nature, pattern, and perpetration of trafficking and sale of illegal or/and legal drugs; and past and current policies and control of illegal and /or legal drugs. It will be essential reading for all students, academics and policy-makers working in the area of drug control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Follow the mischievous and hilarious adventures of four grammar school–age boys growing up in the late 1920s. The good, not-so-good, and hilarious situations the four boys became involved in on a day-to-day basis are insights into what city boys did to keep themselves busy during school days, after school was out for the summer and on weekends in Berwyn, Illinois. Lacking the many entertainment forms of modern society, the young boys of the late 1920s spent much of their time roaming the city streets and parks, riding the elevated train, finding other forms of entertainment, and sometimes seeking scary adventures.

Download or read book Cancer Crossings written by Tim Wendel and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Eric Wendel was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 1966, the survival rate was 10 percent. Today, it is 90 percent. Even as politicians call for a "Cancer Moonshot," this accomplishment remains a pinnacle in cancer research. The author’s daughter, then a medical student at Georgetown Medical School, told her father about this amazing success story. Tim Wendel soon discovered that many of the doctors at the forefront of this effort cared for his brother at Roswell Park in Buffalo, New York. Wendel went in search of this extraordinary group, interviewing Lucius Sinks, James Holland, Donald Pinkel, and others in the field. If there were a Mount Rushmore for cancer research, they would be on it. Despite being ostracized by their medical peers, these doctors developed modern-day chemotherapy practices and invented the blood centrifuge machine, helping thousands of children live longer lives. Part family memoir and part medical narrative, Cancer Crossings explores how the Wendel family found the courage to move ahead with their lives. They learned to sail on Lake Ontario, cruising across miles of open water together, even as the campaign against cancer changed their lives forever.
