Thirteen's Educational Publishing Department has produced a 12-page discussion guide to accompany RED GOLD: THE EPIC STORY OF BLOOD. The Guide includes a three-page essay by Douglas Starr, author of BLOOD: AN EPIC HISTORY OF MEDICINE AND COMMERCE; discussion questions; a historical timeline that lists milestones in the scientific understanding and medical use of blood; a chart that shows what happens to donated blood; and a section on how to plan a successful blood drive. The Guide may be used in discussion groups, workshops and other educational settings. |
To order the guide, please send an email to guiderequest@thirteen.org or a letter to Jesse Dillon, Thirteen/WNET New York, 450 W. 33rd St, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10001. The email/letter should contain your name and address and indicate how many guides you would like.
To download the Discussion Guide as a PDF, you must first download the Adobe
Acrobat Reader, available for free on Adobe's Web site. The Reader is available for most
computer platforms, and once downloaded the Guide may be viewed on-screen as well
as printed out.
Steps:
1. Download Adobe's Acrobat Reader from Adobe's Web site and follow the
instructions to install it.
2. Download the Discussion Guide.
3. Open the Discussion Guide. If Adobe Acrobat is installed correctly, the guide will open automatically in most browsers. If the guide doesn't open
automatically, save the file to your desktop or to a particular folder, then open
it manually. The pages may be printed. If the option exists in your print
options, print to the end of the page.
