Book excerpt: 'Good Blood' is a short story written by Ernst Von Wildenbruch. The book follows the narrator's journey into the past in a wine-room in the old town where as Referendar, he was practicing for his exams. The place was situated on the ground floor of a house in the great square which from the window one could look out upon in every direction. It was at this hour nearly empty. To the narrator this was all the more agreeable, for he has always been a lover of solitude.

Book excerpt: "At the vortex of the American eugenics tragedy was the seemingly sordid tale of a ''degenerate'' family from rural New Jersey. Published in 1912, The Kallikak Family was a pseudoscientific treatise describing generations of illiterate, poor, and purportedly immoral Kallikak family members who were chronically unemployed, ''feebleminded, '' criminal, and, in general, perceived as threats to ''racial hygiene.'' Psychologist Henry Herbert Goddard invented the pseudonym ''Kallikak''-from the Greek words Kallos (beauty) and Kakos (bad)-to illustrate the eugenic belief in the role of nature and heredity as unalterable forces leading to degeneracy, and his tale of the contrasting fates of the disparate Kallikak ancestral lines reigned for decades as seemingly conclusive proof of the hereditary nature of intelligence, feeblemindedness, criminal behavior, and degeneracy. The starting point for Goddard's moral tale was ''Deborah Kallikak, '' an inmate at his institution for the feebleminded. In the 100 years since publication of The Kallikak Family, the woman Goddard called ''Deborah'' has remained in the shadows of history, known only by the name forced upon her. Using new source material, Good Blood, Bad Blood tells her story in its entirety-in dramatic, narrative style-for the first time. It is a landmark publication in disability studies, vital to understanding of both this specific American tragedy and the history of efforts to manipulate the human population."--Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Rosemary Luce, 1968 Mahoningtown, Pennsylvania, was as true as the movie’s exaggerations—a flash of technicolored bliss. But under the falling soot of train engines and steel mill stacks her vibrant Italian-American community is riddled with morbid secrets. Eleven-year-old Rosie’s curiosity in a mysterious group of men precipitates her discovery of the Italian Mafia. When she gets caught in the Mafia’s path she learns that her honorable and honest family has incestuous Mafia ties. And, the golden age of the mob is coming to a self-detonating end. Her struggle to rescue her family from its generational curse begins to blur her own distinctions between corruption and justice, good and evil, sin and saving. In her journey, she discovers the power of friendship, the consequences of evil, and the hard decisions that come with unconditional love.

Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling author of How to Make a Spaceship presents the remarkable, uplifting story of a life-saving medical breakthrough. In 1951 in Sydney, Australia, a fourteen-year-old boy named James Harrison was near death when he received a transfusion of blood that saved his life. A few years later, and half a world away, a shy young doctor at Columbia University realized he was more comfortable in the lab than in the examination room. Neither could have imagined how their paths would cross, or how they would change the world. In Good Blood, Julian Guthrie tells the gripping tale of the race to cure Rh disease, a horrible blood disease that caused a mother’s immune system to attack her own unborn child. The story is anchored by two very di?erent men on two continents: Dr. John Gorman in New York, who would land on a brilliant yet contrarian idea, and an unassuming Australian whose almost magical blood—and his unyielding devotion to donating it—would save millions of lives. Good Blood takes us from research laboratories to hospitals, and even into Sing Sing prison, where experimental blood trials were held. It is a tale of discovery and invention, the progress and pitfalls of medicine, and the everyday heroics that fundamentally changed the health of women and babies.
