        Hadassah for the Health of the People

        by Prof. Shifra Shvarts & Dr. Zipora Shehory-Rubin with Prof. Yoel Donchin

        The Hadassah Book covers the topics of women, public health, and Zionism. The book focuses mainly on the unique endeavor of the members of the Hadassah Women’s Organization, who took upon themselves the mission of building modern public health services for the Jewish community in Palestine under British rule, based on their American experience in that field. During these first ten years, public health services were provided to 46,000 pregnant women, 53,000 infants, 700,000 house visits were made by nurses, and 1.7 million visits were made to the 44 maternal and infant welfare centers that provided services nationwide. Thanks to these services, infant mortality in the Jewish community dropped significantly from 144:1000 in 1922 to 54:1000 in 1939 (compared to 50:1000 in the U.S. and 53:1000 in the U.K.). No other similar endeavor has achieved such remarkable results in such a short period of time. All public health services provided under the umbrella of Hadassah were equal to all, including the Arab community. The mission was based mainly on the Zionist ideology of building a new nation healthy in body and mind. The public health mission of these American women was an integral part of the Zionist mission and activities at that time. However, unlike other fields of Zionist activity in Palestine during this period, it was led completely and only by women. This book is the story of these determined American Zionist women and their remarkable achievements and contributions to the health of the Jewish community in Palestine, which was the early offspring of a nation in building. The Hadassah Book also includes original pictures that were discovered only a few years ago in one of the old Hadassah storage rooms in Jerusalem by Prof. Yoel Donchin, and they are currently displayed at a special exhibition in the Jerusalem Theater. About the Authors Shifra Shvarts, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor of the History of Medicine at Ben-Gurion University, and a researcher at the Gertner Institute for Epidemiology and Health Policy Research, Sheba Medical Center. She specializes in the social history of medicine and public health in nineteenth- to twentieth-century Israel. She has published six books on the development and history of the Israeli health care system. She is also the author of the Israeli HMO indices in the Israeli Medical Encyclopedia and in the Encyclopedia Judaica. Zipora Shehory-Rubin, Ph.D., is a Senior Lecturer at Kaye Academic College of Education in Beer-Sheva, Israel, where she teaches the history of education and Hebrew language. She received her Ph.D. in history from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev after completing her dissertation on Hadassah's educational enterprises and health activities during British Mandatory rule over Palestine. Her publications include books and articles on various aspects of the history of education and the history of medicine. Prof. Yoel Donchin, M.D., is a Clinical Professor of Anesthesia and Intensive Care at the Hadassah Medical Center, Hebrew University, Jerusalem. After graduating from Hadassah Medical School, he continued his residency at Hadassah, where he is now the head of the Patient Safety Center. He also rescued and preserved more than 1,000 photographs from Hadassah’s early years and films created during that period. Currently he is the president of the Israeli Society of the History of Medicine. An English-language eBook edition was published in Summer 2012 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc., CA.

        Hadassah para la salud del pueblo

        by Dra. Shifra Shvarts; Dra. Zipora Shehory-Rubin; Prof. Yoel Donchin

        Hadassah para la salud del pueblo La misión de educación para la salud de Hadassah: mujeres norteamericanas sionistas en Tierra Santa por la Prof. Shifra Shvarts y la Dra. Zipora Shehory-Rubin, en colaboración con el Prof. Yoel Donchin El Libro de Hadassah trata de mujeres, salud pública y sionismo. El libro se centra principalmente en el esfuerzo único de los miembros de la Organización Femenina Hadassah, que asumieron la misión de constituir servicios modernos de salud pública y de educación para la salud para la comunidad judía en Palestina bajo el dominio británico, basándose en la experiencia acumulada en el terreno en los Estados Unidos. Durante ese primer decenio, los servicios de salud pública prestaron asistencia a 46 mil mujeres embarazadas y a 53 mil recién nacidos, posibilitaron 700 mil visitas de enfermeras a domicilio y registraron 1,7 millones de visitas en los 44 centros de asistencia social para madres y niños que prestaron servicios en todo el país. Estos servicios llevaron a una reducción drástica de la mortalidad infantil en la comunidad judía, de 144 por cada mil en 1922 a 54 por cada mil en 1939, en comparación con 50 por cada mil en los Estados Unidos y a 53 por cada mil en el Reino Unido. Jamás otra iniciativa similar ha logrado resultados tan notables en un espacio de tiempo tan corto. La prestación de todos los servicios de salud pública en el marco de Hadassah se realizó en pie de igualdad para todos, incluida la comunidad árabe. Su cometido se basaba principalmente en la ideología sionista de crear una nueva nación con cuerpo y mente sanos. La misión de estas mujeres norteamericanas en el ámbito de la salud pública fue parte integral de los cometidos y de las actividades sionistas en esos días. No obstante, a diferencia de otros campos de la actividad sionista en Palestina durante dicho periodo, tomaron parte en ella únicamente mujeres. Este libro relata la historia de estas resueltas mujeres sionistas norteamericanas y sus notables logros para asegurar la salud de la comunidad judía en Palestina, uno de los primeros vástagos de una nación en gestación. El Libro de Hadassah también incluye fotografías originales descubiertas hace pocos años en uno de los antiguos almacenes de Hadassah en Jerusalén por el Profesor Yoel Donchin y que se pueden ver actualmente en una exposición en el Teatro de Jerusalén.  Acerca de los autores La Dra. Shifra Shvarts es profesora adjunta de Historia de la Medicina en la Universidad Ben Gurión e investigadora en el Instituto Gertner de Investigación de Epidemiología y Políticas de Salud, del Centro Médico Sheba. La doctora Shvarts se especializa en la historia social de la medicina y la salud pública en Israel de los siglos XIX y XX y ha publicado seis libros sobre el desarrollo y la historia del sistema de salud en Israel.  También es autora de los artículos sobre las Organizaciones de seguro médico en la Enciclopedia Médica Israelí y en la Enciclopedia Judaica. La Dra. Zipora Shehory-Rubin es profesora titular del Colegio Universitario Kaye de Beer Sheba, Israel, donde enseña historia de la educación y hebreo. Obtuvo su Doctorado en historia de la Universidad Ben Gurión del Néguev, tras haber completado su disertación sobre las iniciativas educativas y las actividades de Hadassah en el ámbito de la salud durante el Mandato británico en Palestina. Sus publicaciones incluyen libros y artículos sobre diversos aspectos de la historia de la educación y de la medicina. El Prof. Yoel Donchin, doctor en medicina, es profesor clínico de anestesia y cuidados intensivos en el centro médico Hadassah de la Universidad Hebrea de Jerusalén. Tras graduarse en la Facultad de Medicina Hadassah, continuó como residente en Hadassah, donde dirige ahora el Centro para la seguridad del paciente. El Dr. Donchin también ha rescatado y preservado más de 1.000 fotografías de los primeros años de Hadassah, así como películas filmadas durante dicho período. Actualmente preside la Sociedad de historia de la medicina de Israel.

        Hadassah

        by Par le Pr Shifra Shvarts et le Dr Zipora Shehory-Rubin, avec le concours du Pr Yoel Donchin

        Hadassah pour la santé publique: La mission médicale et éducative de Hadassah - les Femmes Sionistes Américaines en Terre Sainte Par le Pr Shifra Shvarts et le Dr Zipora Shehory-Rubin, avec le concours du Pr Yoel Donchin Le Livre de Hadassah recouvre les sujets de la femme, de la santé publique et du sionisme. Ce livre se concentre surtout sur le dévouement exceptionnel des membres de l’organisation féminine Hadassah, qui s’est chargée de la mission de mettre en place des services modernes de santé publique pour la communauté juive de Palestine, sous le mandat britannique, sur la base de son expérience dans ce domaine en Amérique. Pendant les dix premières années, des services de santé publique ont été pourvus à 46 000 femmes enceintes, à 53 000 enfants en bas âge, les infirmières ont fourni 700 000 soins à domicile et 1,7 millions de consultations ont été effectuées dans les 44 dispensaires  procurant des services pour le bien-être de la mère et l’enfant à travers le pays. Grace à ces services, la mortalité infantile a fortement baissé dans la communauté juive de 144:1000 en 1922 à 54:1000 in 1939 (en comparaison de 50:1000 aux U.S.A. et 53:1000 au Royaume Uni). Aucune autre entreprise de dévouements similaire n’a réussi à accomplir des résultats aussi remarquables en une période aussi courte. Tous les services de santé publique fournis sous la tutelle de Hadassah étaient égalitaires et s’adressaient aussi bien à la communauté arabe. La mission entait fondée principalement sur l’idéologie sioniste de construction d’une nouvelle nation, saine de corps et d’esprit. La mission de santé publique de ces femmes américaines constituait une partie intégrante de la mission et des activités sionistes de cette époque. Cependant, au contraire d’autres domaines de l’activité sioniste an Palestine pendant cette période, elle entait entièrement et exclusivement menée par des femmes. Ce livre raconte l’histoire de ces femmes sionistes américaines déterminées et leurs accomplissements remarquables en faveur de la santé de la communauté juive de Palestine, qui constituait les prémices d’une nation en construction. Le Livre de Hadassah renferme aussi des photos originales, qui ont été découvertes il y a seulement quelques annexes dans l’un des anciens entrepôts de Hadassah à Jérusalem par le Pr  Yoel Donchin, et que l’on peut actuellement voir dans une exposition spéciale au Theater de Jérusalem. A propos des auteurs Shifra Shvarts, Ph.D., est professeur titulaire d’histoire de la médecine à l’Université Ben-Gurion et charge de recherche à l’Institut Gertner de recherche épidémiologique et de politique de la santé, au Center Medical Sheba. Elle est spécialisée en histoire social de la médecine et de la santé publique du dix-neuvième siècle au vingtième siècle en Israël. Elle a publié six livres sur le développement et l’histoire du système médical en Israël. Elle est aussi l’auteur des articles sur les caisses de maladie israéliennes dans l’Encyclopédie Médicale Israélienne et dans l’Encyclopedia Judaica. Zipora Shehory-Rubin, Ph.D., est conférencière supérieure au Collège d’Education Académique Kaye à Beer-Shéva, en Israël, où elle enseigne l’histoire de l’éducation et de la langue hébraïque. Elle a obtenu son doctorat en histoire à l’Université du Néguev Ben-Gurion après avoir présenté sa thèse sur les entreprises éducatives et les activités médicales de Hadassah sous le mandat britannique de Palestine. Elle a publié des livres et des articles sur les divers aspects de l’histoire de l’éducation et l’histoire de la médecine. Le Pr Yoel Donchin, M.D., est professeur clinique anesthésiste  et de soins intensifs au Center Médical Hadassah, à l’Université Hébraïque de Jérusalem. Apres avoir fini ses études à la Faculté Médicales Hadassah, il a continue son internat à Hadassah, où il est maintenant le directeur du Center pour la Sécurité du Patient. Il a aussi préservé et restauré plus de 1000 photos et de films originaux témoignant des premières années de Hadassah. Il est actuellement président de la Société Israélienne d’Histoire de la Médecine.

        The Coconut

        Botany, Production and Uses

        by Stephen W Adkins, Julianne Biddle, Amirhossein Bazrafshan, Sundaravelpandian Kalaipandian

        The coconut palm (Cocos nucifera L.) is one of the world's most important palms, and contributes significantly to the income and livelihood of many people in tropical countries. Widely referred to as the 'tree of life', coconut has been used as a source of food, drink, oil, medicine, shelter and wood for around 500 years. Every part of the coconut palm can be utilized. The demand for coconut fruit and its products has increased recently as people have become aware of its nutritional and health benefits, especially those of coconut water and virgin coconut oil. This book covers all aspects of coconut including origins and diversity; ecophysiology; production in a changing climate; pests and diseases; harvest and postharvest management; breeding and genetics; as well as the current and future status of coconut as an economic crop. This book is a key resource for researchers and students in horticulture, plant science and agriculture, and those interested in the production of tropical crops, and practitioners in the coconut industry.

        Energy Future

        Fosils and Beyond

        by Moty Kuperberg

        We cannot survive in a world where oil is $200 per barrel and where prices are dictated by a cartel and influenced by Wall Street. The free industrialized world, the glorious oil industry, and developed and developing countries have all fallen victim to greedy oil price crises. The worst year was 2008; our energy security, which the IEA defines as the “uninterrupted availability of energy sources at an affordable price,” was harmed. Yet the average price of crude oil in 2010–2014 was over $100 per barrel, only to sharply decline to $56 by the end of 2014, followed by a struggle to reach $50—a price which is considered "acceptable" by the industry. Energy Future puts the oil and gas industry’s past and present in context in order to introduce an alternative future. This future is based on three main pillars defined by the author as ENERGY GPS: geopolitics = accessible, prices = affordable, and supply = available.   Moty Kuperberg is a graduate of the department of Middle Eastern history at the University of Haifa (1984), and he holds a postgraduate degree in business administration and shipping from the City of London Polytechnic (1988). He has over twenty years of experience in shipping and energy, and during the last five years he has focused on his Independent Energy Security Agency (www.TheIESA.com) as a platform for improved global security of supply. An English-language eBook edition has been scheduled for fall  2017 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc.,CA.
