Многим людям, приступавшим к изучению иммунологии, эта наука показалась запутанной и скучной, но только не молекулярному биологу Марии Кондратовой, которая берется показать, что на самом деле эта область знаний увлекательна и непредсказуема, как хорошее полицейское кино: с погонями, взрывами и поиском преступников. Используя образы и метафоры самого динамичного жанра, но не жертвуя при этом научной точностью, автор превращает рассказ о защитных силах нашего организма в захватывающий экшен.

Beginning with the earliest attempts to heal the body and account for the meaning of illness in the ancient Near East, historian Gary B.

What if the system that’s supposed to save you… is actually the thing breaking you? I’ve spent over 15 years inside American healthcare as a nurse at the bedside and in the chaos, and I can tell you this: what people think happens, and what actually happens, are not the same thing. Broken and Brave takes you inside a single 12-hour hospital shift during the height of COVID, where nothing is controlled, everything is stretched thin, and the decisions being made aren’t always the ones you’d expect.

Traumatic stress is a real problem and contributing factor to the short career life expectancy of many nurses. Nurse turnover is higher than the general population and ER nurses turnover is exponentially higher.
