Walang boring part kasi yung pagtry ni Ezra and Loveday iuncover yung mystery ng pagkamatay ng mga taong malapit sakanila, medyo thrilling. Yung kagustuhan nilang magrevenge, napasok tuloy sila sa kung anu anong kaguluhan na. Medyo adventurous ang kinalabasan. Sawbones is a medical history podcast, going over the often bizarre things we used to do to cure ourselves, or in some cases still do. The hosts are doctor and her husband, who bring a fantastic mix of fun and knowledge to each episode. When I heard they were releasing a book I was intrigued from the start, I expected a more serious take of their usual subject matters, what I got was something else entirely although no less valuable. Sydnee: There’s a ton to talk about, but it’s also still relevant today, sometimes directly. Some of the medicines that we learn about — forms of them are still on the market. year old Nathaniel is a slave, sent to England. Life in London is tough and Nat seizes the first opportunity to escape. He hears the story of The Zong, a ship where the crew murdered 133 slaves. Will the world continue to turn a blind eye to the horrors of slavery? And can Nat really evade his masters forever? 9+

User Reviews:

Last days of school… that final exam… the awkward visit to say goodbye to some of the teachers. Where will it all lead? Iestyn can’t be sure. Plotting a definite course is not the thing. For him, there’s more life in charging around the forestry in his mate’s car. Until the crash, that is. Until his mate takes up with Martine. Until Iestyn himself has his new job to worry about – and until, more unexpectedly, someone moves in on his feelings with such force that his world is turned upside down.

But old age is slowing Mother Hopkins down, and she wants to carry out one last con, a con to outdo all the cons that have gone before. And so the gang set about bringing ruin upon Captain Walker, a proud and cruel slave captain, who deserves to be taught a lesson or two . . . Overall, I don't know what you guys expected, but if you like The Graveyard Book, Tim Burton and historical fiction, I believe you will love this as much ♥ Until the next review, keep studying the scalpel and the blade and searching for adventures and friends ♥ Sophie’s new home is a modern blue bungalow in a tiny village in Wales. It’s a long way from London and her friends, and a long way from Dad. It might be all right, she thinks, for ‘what I did in the holidays’, but not for living in forever. It gets worse when Sophie starts hearing the breathing at night. Then the ghost appears – dressed in rags and smelling awful but insisting that she is someone special. The last thing Sophie needs right now is to be haunted. Shortlisted for the Hampshire Book Award’Come with me… Join me on a journey far beyond this world… far beyond what is known…’Stella is the ‘Queen of the Night’, a professional spirit-talker. Standing on stage in her gauzy silver cape, looking out with her big brown eyes, she makes people believe she really can talk to the dead.It’s all pretence, of course. Stella couldn’t do it without her guardian, Nana. Then Nana dies suddenly, leaving Stella to survive on her own. And she finds that it can be a lot harder dealing with the living than with the dead.. and some handy recs and my top list of Historical PoC here at the Bibliomanic here and here at The Reading Fangirl

The Sawbones Book: The Hilarious, Horrifying Road to Modern

If these were any other content creators besides the McElroys, there is no way this book would have such a high rating on Goodreads. I understand that folks are enthusiastic to support them - I am too - but such a high rating is extremely dishonest because the construction and editing of the book is so unforgivably flawed. I can't believe someone actually made the decision to ship out the books in this state. It feels like they're taking advantage of the fans' willingness to forgive the creators, and that is bad business. Ever wondered how one might treat a baby with colic? An alcohol-chloroform-morphine concoction. Or about a lady who just loved the taste of that raw, cholera-infected water in 1854 South London? Or the poor and unfortunate fate of alligator parts? The Sawbones Book: The Hilarious, Horrifying Road to Modern Medicine is here to bounce from topic to topic, with some shorter interludes for weird medical questions from listeners/readers, all infused with jokes and asides that leaven some particularly gruesome and gory medical scenarios.

Johnson was born in London, England, in 1962. Her father was Jamaican and her mother was Welsh. Johnson grew up in North London and attended Tetherdown Primary School. Later she studied film at St Martin's School of Art, before turning to writing. Sydnee: I enjoy learning these things. I enjoy telling Justin about them. And the fact that people like to listen is just the icing. We knew pretty early on that, “Hey, this would make a really good book.” One incarnation could have been a set of trivia articles, but we really wanted to bring to the book what we bring to the podcasts, which is our interactions with each other and the humor. FAMILY PRACTICE PODCASTING Coauthors Sydnee McElroy (left) and her husband Justin McElroy (right) have hosted the Sawbones podcast since 2013. Courtesy of S. and J. McElroy Today, the obstacle of modern medicine is the problem of one-sidedness. For example, the Human Genome Project, which deducted funding from all other research areas. Furthermore, the research was unilaterally pushed in one direction and paid too little attention to all different approaches and theories. Ironically, there are now no further results. On the contrary, the underestimated RNA played a much more significant role than expected. Subjectively speaking, one could have come to the conclusion earlier that the source code RNA has something to do with the software DNA. But whatever. This could be further excavated by other examples from recent history and the future will certainly unveil more bias. A sequel to Sawbones set in Revolutionary Paris. Young surgeon Ezra McAdam must hasten to Paris to rescue his friend Loveday Finch and her charge Mahmoud, the Ottoman prince, who have been caught up in the Revolution. On the way, Ezra experiences the war first hand on the battlefields of Northern France, where his surgical skills are in high demand by the beleaguered French army. Meanwhile, in Paris, the guillotine is busy, and the medical world is finding the surfeit of bodies useful to its research into the seat of life. Ezra is not persuaded by the controversial theories of his French colleagues, but his mind is on other matters. Finding Loveday and Mahmoud is proving harder than he had imagined: it would appear that Paris really is the most dangerous place on earth. Ezra’s search takes him from the grand Hotel Dieu to the dark catacombs below the city; from the opulent War Office to the tall, forbidding Conciergerie – the city prison – here he must undertake the most audacious rescue attempt of all. Chosen by Booktrust as one of ‘The Best New Children’s Books’ for their spring roundup: ‘Catherine Johnson’s tragic tale of bad lad Devon feels real and dangerous enough to hit home.’
