Summer Work

Summer 2023 -

First:  READ the syllabus (left) to get a good idea of what the class is about!

Second: 

1. Choose a book from the list.

2. Read and enjoy!

3. On the first day of school,  you will get an assignment regarding your book.  So take some notes as you go along!  You'll be writing a paper, and doing a bit of research.

• "Surviving the Extremes" - Kenneth Kamler, M.D. (many copies in CDH LMC. ). Ava says - it's a summary of stories - in lots of different places, and easy to pick up/put down.  (7 copies in the LLC)

•  "Phantoms in the Brain" - V.S. Ramachandran, M.D., Ph.D. (This is so good! Especially if you are taking Psych as well!) (2 copies in the LLC)

• "When the Air Hits Your Brain" -Frank Vertosick Jr., M.D.  (many copies in CDH LMC.) The hands-down favorite of all students! Bergen says - it's awesome, because it's real stories!! Lolo thought it was funny, and not heavy! (7 copies in the LLC)

• "Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers" - Mary Roach (a few copies in CDH LMC) (2 copies in the LLC)

• “Corpse: Nature, Forensics, and the Struggle to Pinpoint Time of Death” Jessica Snyder Sachs (A few copies in CDH LMC) (2 copies in the LLC)

I absolutely LOVE teaching this class!  This class is an adventure! Buckle up! Enjoy the ride!
