This is not monetized, but I wanted to share it. For medical professionals and educators, just take note - the book is felt, so I don't think it can be sanitized.

"I realize I don’t know very much. None of us knows very much. But we can all learn more. Then we can teach one another. We can stop denying reality or hoping it will go away by magic." - Octavia Butler

And requiring manual review.
