Modernization-VIRTUAL INTERPRETATION

I read through some more of the lectures that the professor gave us through the flash drive and found a folder on modernization. It's been mentioned in our class times directly and indirectly. I read about how a lot of the western civilizations modernized while other countries became third world countries and are just on the verge of beginning to modernize. The mass media had a large part in the process of modernizing. Cultural diffusion led to a general acceptance of society's norms. Modernization led to people who live across the oceans to speak to each other and to video chat with them so they can look at them live. It's amazing how two people who have never met can even come in contact through internet social sites. Two different cultures become one through this theory of modernization. I can only wonder what tomorrow has in store for us.

Medicine has come a long way.-VIRTUAL INTERPRETATION

I read through some of the documents that the professor gave to us on our flash drive. I read into Italian and Greek medicine and found it quite interesting. Surgery, pathology, bone fractures, hygiene was all a part of medicine studies among the Greeks like Hippocrates. They wrote about the smallest details about our body and how it works. Medicine was a part of the medieval world way back then and has probably given vital information to doctors and scientists of today. Even woman of the middle ages were involved in practice. They were the midwives who helped in the birth of babies. Everything seems to have gotten more complicated to me today. The facts from this folder are amazing to me because even though I already learned about such facts before, it refreshes my mind on these topics and it's always good when that happens. The pictures of all the plants used for medicine shows a little of they used natural products and how a lot of medicines today aren't like that anymore. Medicine has definetely come a long way since the middle ages period.
