Reddit mentions: The best industrial health & safety books

Not totally accurate, but if you’re looking for popular science/entertainment that’s somewhat anthropology related.... Kathy Reichs is a board certified forensic anthropologist and has written a lot of books. They (she) are what the TV show Bones was based on.

Stiff by Mary Roach is a good one

For nonfiction, and if you’re interested in things highly relevant politically now, these are some incredible works on immigration.

Becoming Legal
They Leave Their Kidneys in the Fields

I’m pretty sure this author is a sociologist, but still a great book. imagined communities

And yet, in years of academic research in the field of climate science, I've never encountered anything written by Lewis. The book you reference is popular media; it's not a technical article or a novel scientific contribution.

Referring to someone as "one of the greatest minds in climate science" suggests they made important, novel contributions to the field which allowed us to better understand how climate works. Lewis did not do that. The sorts of people that come to mind when you write "greatest minds in climate science" are Syukuro Manabe, Richard Wetherald, Jule Charney, Bernhard Haurwitz, etc.

> And no, APS data is NOT transparent and is only released on its own schedule via research journals

The American Physical Society doesn't have "data"; it doesn't do science. Its members conduct novel research, and the APS runs journals which provide them - and others - the opportunity to publish their research following peer review.

Safety & Health for Engineers by Roger Brauer is a great resource and one of the recommended books to study prior to sitting for certifications (ASP, CSP, etc. assuming you're in the US)

The point I was making about software is that it had previously been perceived as woman's work, but as demand for those skills rose and became more prestigious, it quickly became a men's field. This happens in fields as well.

Schoolteacher and nurse are not lower skill jobs. Teacher need a decent working understanding of basic child psychology, as well as learning theory, not to mention the subject they are teaching. The learn as you teach model is completely inefficient, but that is largely ignored by administration who seem to think if you know how to teach one subject you can teach any subject.
As for nurses, true there are different levels, but many have as much training and education as doctors, it's just in a different area of medicine.

And, believe it or not this last point is also something that the sex positive feminists are concerned about. Men spending less time with their families only further pushes women out of the workforce. Also the stereotyping of jobs is also problematic. For example a man wanting to be a teacher for lower grades often gets suspicion thrown his way (despite the fact men are just as capable to work with children), which pushes women teachers to younger grades. I know many who were trained in high school education, but ended up in lower grades.

As for workplace safety, not much feminist can do about that. That's more a place for AI and robotics. and just to avoid the accusation that feminists are anti-robots because of the whole sex doll thing, that's largely the 'lesbian' feminists. Sex-positives are more like, dude, there are male dolls too. chill.

There's an interesting book I'm reading called Risky Business. It goes through different areas of workplace safety and shows how certain industries use improper data about biology, classifying certain jobs (paint or chemicals) as high risk for women or minorities and then stating because they don't have high risk workers then don't need worker safety regulation, which only puts men further at risk, despite that health concerns for low risk workers was relative and they are actually in high risk jobs. I know that description sound eye rolly, but it's actually quite interesting, although dated. If you see it a library, it's a decent read. It's bioethics more than feminism. https://www.amazon.ca/Risky-Business-Exclusionary-Practices-Hazardous/dp/0521422485

The funny thing, is that I'm actually kind of serious when I ask.

I actually own this and have read it in its entirety.
