{"product_id":"meharry-medical-college-sandra-martin-parham-9781540247278","title":"Meharry Medical College","description":"Originally founded in 1876 as a department of Central Tennessee College, Meharry Medical College was granted a separate charter of incorporation in 1915. The college was named to honor five Irish brothers, Samuel, Hugh, Alexander, Jesse, and David Meharry. They gave more than $30,000 in cash and real estate to fund an institution that would educate medical professionals to serve the black community. By the mid-20th century, Meharry Medical College graduated approximately half the black doctors in the United States. The evolution of Meharry Medical College is a compelling story that occurs during succeeding eras. In many ways, its evolution reflects the changing tides of race relations in America. Nearly 150 years later, Meharry continues to be a significant medical institution that holds true to its motto: Dedicated to the worship of God through service to man.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandra Martin Parham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540247279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540247278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Pub (Sc)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Sandra Martin Parham","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43981794181375,"sku":"9781540247278","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2bf1066b-0c86-45b3-a757-9f9c17ab3c0d.jpg?v=1683257554","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/meharry-medical-college-sandra-martin-parham-9781540247278","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
