  “Stamped from the Beginning” by Ibram X. Kendi explores the history and evolution of racist ideas in America, tracing their roots from ancient times to the present.

The book delves into key historical moments, such as slavery, the Civil Rights Movement, and the rise of modern racial issues, offering a powerful critique of systemic racism. Through historical analysis and personal reflection, Kendi emphasizes the ongoing struggle for racial equality and justice in contemporary society.

  A medical history of Scotland, including practices, innovations, politics, diseases and pandemics, from medieval times to the twentieth century.   Scotland offers almost unique opportunities for medical historians. For a conventional history, there is a rich stock of famous doctors and their discoveries. There are also the contributions of four ancient universities and three equally old colleges of physicians and surgeons. For historians of public health there is the famous struggle against the problems of the industrial revolution and the lives and works of the great sanitary reformers in Glasgow and Edinburgh. For the social historian there are equal opportunities in the diversity of the health care in the Highlands and Lowlands, the rich traditions of Scottish folk medicine and the interactions of Scottish and English medical practice. Much else can be learnt in relating Scotland's great innovative periods to her cultural and political state at the time.  In this book, author David Hamilton explores new sources and evaluates the rich history of medicinal practices in Scotland. Thus, for historians both of medicine and of Scotland, this study is necessary to more fully understand the country's history.
