In the Dec. 15, 2022 issue of the school’s internal newsletter In the Know, we asked members of the SMPH community to submit titles of books that they would recommend for gift-giving or adding to a year-end reading list. The robust response covers a wide variety of genres, and we’re pleased to share the following titles recommended by your peers and colleagues. Looking for even more ideas?
