Dr. Oscar Reiss’s, M.D., Medicine and the American Revolution is a complete history of revolutionary medical practices, medical leadership, and common diseases that plagued the army. Additionally, Reiss included medical evaluations on the leaders of each side, to give the reader further insight into the medical side of war. With nine times as many people dying from disease than from fighting, medicine played a key role in the American Revolution Reiss, a World War II veteran, is familiar with the tactical side of warfare. However, in his writing, Reiss examines war from a physician’s perspective, looking at how diseases and medicine impacted the war.
Reid begins chapter 7 discussing the Beveridge model of health care. The first aspect that stood out to me is that the sales tax rate in Britain in 17.5%. Reid is right, that amount does make us Americans cringe, especially me! I can’t even imagine going to buy a new shirt and getting taxed 17.5%, a huge increase from Michigan’s 6% tax rate. The Brit’s single national health system (NHS) spends one fifteenth of the U.S. health care bill.

In chapter twenty-one, Steinbeck introduces a logical argument, which, through rhetorical strategies such as word choice, tone, foreshadowing, and ethos, he was able to enhance the hostile emotions that were accumulated by the migrants and poor farmers and foreshadow that the oppression of them would be the downfall of the industry. The word choice chapter twenty-one provided, was a very important aspect to the overall meaning Steinbeck was trying to convey. In the opening of the chapter the Okies were traveling in search of jobs. Steinbeck's phrases in these descriptions include, “highways were streams of people” and “they scampered about, looking for work.”

Dear Walter Dean Myers, Affiliations can be potential, essential, influential, and of course consequential. Steve, you entered an unthinkable, unimaginable situation, a sequence containing mental and emotional carousels. This evidential trial threw your young self into an overwhelming state, where people who did not know the slightest thing about you wanted you in jail for your entire life--the prosecutor, Sandra Petrocelli, and many citizens who accused YOU of killing Mr.Nesbitt. Your trial highlights the significance of association, how one can be caught up in gang violence, persuasion, on any occasion. They wanted 25 years to life from you, they wanted to deprive you of your late youth, and take away your whole adulthood.

After he was discharged, he failed to keep taking his antibiotics to eliminate the infection. He returned to the hospital several weeks later with a grossly purulent knee.

This prompted an additional surgery to clean the infected tissue. The V.A release Randy from the hospital once again for insufficient space and advised him to do his best to keep the sizeable hole in his abdomen
His role as an oncologist has profoundly influenced the manner in which I plan to practice medicine in the future: with respect, compassion, and empathy for my patients. It was my observation of his interactions with cancer surviving patients that first inspired me to pursue medicine. These interactions inspired me not only to embark on a profession where I could serve others, but also make a difference in the lives of others. I believe I can make the biggest impact in the lives of my future patients by combining my passion for the clinic and science as a physician-scientist. Though I am early in my medical journey, and am willing to keep an open mind, it is only natural that I yearn to pursue a profession related to oncology.
