Each month, NACCHO will bring you a new public health book, read and reviewed by NACCHO staff. We hope to provide a well-rounded reading list that you will find enjoyable as well as informative.
“Broke in America: Seeing, Understanding and Ending US Poverty”, critically examines public policies and how they have contributed to the inequitable access to and distribution of resources that address the most basic of human needs.
"The Poisoner’s Handbook," by Deborah Blum tells the captivating tale of the evolution of the New York City medical examiner’s office between 1915 and 1936.
The Warmth of Other Suns shares incredible stories of Black Americans who left the south during the Great Migration and came up north, where they envisioned a life without the constraints of Jim Crow.
The book is both gripping and gory at times, but covers personal life and loss, as well as a fascinating historical review of a new age in surgery.
As we continue to self-evaluate our personal and professional relationship with race as public health practitioners, So You Want to Talk About Race, is a great opportunity to delve into how to apply antiracism to everyday situations.
