Book Description
In 'The Right Way the Safe Way', Lydia Maria Child provides a compelling exploration of the process and implications of emancipation in the British West Indies and beyond.

Her literary style is both informative and engaging, offering a detailed account of the struggles and triumphs of the emancipation movement.

Book Description
The face of the pedestrian safety crisis looks a lot like Ignacio Duarte-Rodriguez. The 77-year old grandfather was struck in a hit-and-run crash while trying to cross a high-speed, six-lane road without crosswalks near his son’s home in Phoenix, Arizona. He was one of the more than 6,000 people killed while walking in America in 2018. In the last ten years, there has been a 50 percent increase in pedestrian deaths. The tragedy of traffic violence has barely registered with the media and wider culture. Disproportionately the victims are like Duarte-Rodriguez—immigrants, the poor, and people of color. They have largely been blamed and forgotten. In Right of Way, journalist Angie Schmitt shows us that deaths like Duarte-Rodriguez’s are not unavoidable “accidents.” They don’t happen because of jaywalking or distracted walking. They are predictable, occurring in stark geographic patterns that tell a story about systemic inequality. These deaths are the forgotten faces of an increasingly urgent public-health crisis that we have the tools, but not the will, to solve. Schmitt examines the possible causes of the increase in pedestrian deaths as well as programs and movements that are beginning to respond to the epidemic. Her investigation unveils why pedestrians are dying—and she demands action. Right of Way is a call to reframe the problem, acknowledge the role of racism and classism in the public response to these deaths, and energize advocacy around road safety. Ultimately, Schmitt argues that we need improvements in infrastructure and changes to policy to save lives. Right of Way unveils a crisis that is rooted in both inequality and the undeterred reign of the automobile in our cities. It challenges us to imagine and demand safer and more equitable cities, where no one is expendable.

Book Description
I wrote this book of wonderful wisdom on workplace safety for three primary reasons: 1. The complete furnishing of personal-protection principles and practices 2. The common work of the workplace 3. The complex instruction of groups of workers in the workplace These three primary reasons (as I strongly believe) serve as real keys to achieving the noble goal of a safe workplace: To unite workers in the belief that they can be safe To unite workers in the wisdom of workplace safety To bring workers to a mature state of complete oneness in purpose To bring workers to the point of being wise workers Though the wonderful wisdom of this book reserves the real potential to become universal, it is primarily targeted at steel millssome of the most dangerous places in the world, to work. I firmly believe wisdom of workplace safety is the Master Key to producing wise workers. Wise workers are the first principle to being safe workers. Safe workers are the secret to a safe workplace. A safe workplace is, without a doubt, the noblest of goals that can be set and striven toward by any steel mill. L. A. Jones
