WHO and Pharmaceutical Industry Cooperation Serving Developing Nations (15 Pages, 179.25 $ (USD) )

A 15 page paper discussing the partnership activities of the World Health Organization and the world's leading pharmaceutical manufacturers. Detractors of the pharmaceutical industry deride it for concentrating on developing drugs for the diseases of prosperity while neglecting to develop drugs for tropical diseases, but these detractors fail to understand that development of a single drug can cost as much as $500 million and that businesses must have some promise of return. A new WHO-directed program, Medicines for Malaria Venture, is a collaboration seeking to raise the funds necessary for development. In the meantime, nearly all pharmaceutical companies regularly make substantial donations of medicines and supplies. Most are on the order of Merck's commitment to donate 1 million measles vaccination doses to Honduras over three years. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

African Ideology and Culture: Past and Continued Impacts on African Americans (6 Pages, 71.7 $ (USD) )

A 6 page discussion of the continued importance of Africa culture and ideology to African Americans. To these people Africa was, and will continue to be a continual theme in their culture and even their perceptions of themselves. It was the underlying commonality of their Africanness which pulled African Americans one of the most turbulent times of their history, the time of slavery. It is this same underlying theme of Africanness which continues to consolidate the African Americans and which allows them to resist total assimilation into white culture. Some suggests that the creation of Africa-centered schools would be a positive factor in the welfare of contemporary Black Americans. While the ideology and culture of Africa is something which should continue to be stressed into our future, however, the segregation of black from white in the form of Africa-centered schools would only be a regress into our past.

"Dancing Skeletons": A Review of the Book by Catherine Dettwyler (5 Pages, 59.75 $ (USD) )

A 5 page review of the ethnographic account of fieldwork in medical anthropology. Working among malnourished children in West Africa Dettwyler experienced both professional and personal insight. Although sometimes criticized for her subjective approach to her subject, in reality Dettwyler provides both a a touching human account and a valuable ethnography. Her approach to death as "the ultimate illness", however, is one which is unfortunate. This paper points out that death is in fact a natural component of life. To view death as an ultimate illness is to regard death, a phase which we must all pass through, as a personal and medical failure. No additional sources are listed.
