Teaching Public Health

A physician's candid guide to self-discovery and organizational effectiveness in the pursuit of health equity.In Healing in a Changing America, Dr. George Rust offers advice on improving health equity especially targeted to the people who need to hear it most: white men, many of whom are in leadership positions throughout health care systems and medical education. He shares lessons learned pursuing health equity in diverse settings on his personal journey as a white male physician, from training in a large urban public hospital and practicing in a rural farmworker clinic to teaching and leading in a historically Black medical school. This candid guide confronts uncomfortable truths and nuances of privilege, systemic inequities, and the role that leaders must play in creating inclusive, equitable health systems. How can we ensure diversity and build trust and strength within a health care organization? How do we know when our voice will be helpful--and when it will drown out others'? Through deeply personal and memorable stories, Rust addresses these questions and more. Drawing from decades of experience as an educator, physician, and advocate, he charts a roadmap for individuals willing to confront their own biases and embrace the challenges of fostering diversity and equity in health care. From building trust and empowering underrepresented voices to promoting structural changes in medical education and practice, Rust shares the mistakes and successes of his own experience to equip readers with practical tools to effect meaningful change. Healing in a Changing America offers profound insight into the transformative power of humility, listening, and learning. Whether navigating the complexities of organizational leadership or grappling with societal shifts, this essential work inspires readers to become true allies in the pursuit of justice and equity.

Supporting Inclusive Pedagogy

A Practical Guide to Teaching Creative Writing

A critical interrogation of the creative writing workshop model, this collection of essays provides practical suggestions for contemporary approaches to this contentious method and how it might be reimagined. Since the inception of the Iowa Writers' Workshop in 1936, the workshop model pioneered there has become the bedrock of creative writing instruction around the world, with much existing scholarship on the subject rightly focusing on matters of inclusivity and social justice or dismissing the workshop altogether. With contributions from senior scholars in the field of creative writing pedagogy and authors ranging from the US, Australia and the UK to China, Workshopping in the 21st Century offers specific, actionable recommendations for ways the model can be reinvigorated. Covering topics such as module design, diversity and inclusion, facilitation and teaching style, assessments, internationality, and the integration of modern technology, each chapter surveys perspectives on the workshop and provides concrete strategies to help instructors and workshop facilitators update and bolster their pedagogical practice.

Time wants you dead. Not just you, but your friends, family, pets - everyone you've ever met...

'A beautifully written book about life and death: busts myths, explores the stories of science and history, and ultimately is rich and uplifting.' Dr Adam Rutherford

With over 17,000 known diseases affecting humans, and countless poisons, carcinogens and toxins in our environment, it's a miracle that our bodies manage to keep us alive. And that is, of course, if they don't betray us themselves, whether through cancers or autoimmune conditions.

Biomedical researcher Professor John Tregoning tells the unlikely story of how, against all odds, we manage to stay alive. Taking an organ-by-organ tour of the human body, Tregoning embarks on his own experimental quest, testing 'life-extending' diets and exercise regimes to separate fact from fad. Exploring the multitude of ways our bodies can kill us, from inherited genetic conditions, through heart attacks, arrythmias and angina, onto the delicate workings of the brain, Live Forever?&nbsp;offers compelling insight into how our bodies work, how we can best look after them - and ultimately live longer, healthier lives.

'I heartily recommend this deep dive into wellness... It turns out that none of us are getting out of here alive, but John has bravely put his mind and body on the line to discover the secrets of staying healthy and happy as we get older. A funny, fascinating and educative book.' Ben Willbond, co-creator of Ghosts

'The idea that a book about death and dying could be a delightful read seems ridiculous, and yet John Tregoning has pulled off this trick with humour, flair and elegance.' Nessa Carey, author of The Epigenetics Revolution

'An enjoyable and entertaining mixture of scientific facts about ageing and completely unscientific self-experimentation... recognizing that although none of us will live forever, there are ways we can improve our chances of living well while we are still around.' Dame Sarah Gilbert

A Curious Scientist’s Guide to Wellness, Ageing and Death

Live Forever?

"This book charts the university's entanglement with eight mega-ecosystems - knowledge, learning, persons, social institutions, culture, the economy, the polity and nature - and offers principles through which universities can imaginatively explore possibilities. This book sets out, in broad terms, what it is to realise the idea of the ecological university. Barnett draws together relevant contemporary scholarship from philosophy, social theory, comparative higher education, ethics, and theology. He advances thinking in each of the ecosystems the book looks at and develops a particular form of the philosophy of higher education, drawing on examples to bring the whole text to life"-- Provided by publisher.

Realizing the Ecological University

'Entertaining and moving...I came to love these four women as though they were my sisters' TRACY CHEVALIER 'I ADORED it. What a fantastic read. My book of the year' JILL MANSELL - They knew they were changing history. They didn't know they would change each other. Oxford, 1920. For the first time in its 1000-year history, the world's most famous university has admitted female students. Giddy with dreams of equality, education and emancipation, four young women move into neighbouring rooms on Corridor Eight. They have come here from all walks of life, and they are thrown into an unlikely, life-affirming friendship. Dora was never meant to go to university, but, after losing both her brother and her fiancé on the battlefield, has arrived in their place. Beatrice, politically-minded daughter of a famous suffragette, sees Oxford as a chance to make her own way - and her own friends - for the first time. Socialite Otto fills her room with extravagant luxuries but fears they won't be enough to distract her from her memories of the war years. And quiet, clever, Marianne, the daughter of a village vicar, arrives bearing a secret she must hide from everyone - even The Eights - if she is to succeed. But Oxford's dreaming spires cast a dark shadow: in 1920, misogyny is still rife, influenza is still a threat, and the ghosts of the Great War are still very real indeed. And as the group navigate this tumultuous moment in time, their friendship will become more important than ever. The Eights is a captivating debut novel about sisterhood, self-determination, courage, and what it means to come of age in a world that is forever changed. - 'Beautifully captures the power of friendship ... A pleasure to read' PIP WILLIAMS, author of A Dictionary of Lost Words 'I so enjoyed The Eights' CLARE CHAMBERS, author of Small Pleasures
