After the extinction of the dodo and Carolina parakeet and the collapse of the American bison population, naturalists expected many more vulnerable species to die out with spread of industrialization. This triggered a race to collect rare species of animals expected soon to be lost forever. Established in 1893, Chicago's Field Museum aimed to become a global center of study. Zoologist Daniel Giraud Elliot persuaded museum patrons to fund an immediate expedition to British Somaliland (contemporary Somalia). There, his team hunted and killed hundreds of animals for the growing collection.

From ventilators to brain implants, medicine has been blurring what it means to die. In a lucid description of modern neuroscientific thinking, Zeleznikow-Johnston explains that death is not the loss of breath, but of personal identity – that the core of our identities is our minds, and that our minds are encoded in the structure of our brains. On this basis, he explores how recent discoveries now offer us all the chance of preserving our minds for future revival. Whether they discovered cures or fought for justice, we are grateful to those of our ancestors who helped craft a kinder world.

Story
In Strange Survivors, biologist Oné R. Pagán takes us on a tour of the improbable, the ingenious, and the just plain bizarre ways that creatures fight for life. Inside this funny, fascinating field guide to nature’s most colorful characters, you’ll meet killer snails, social bacteria, and an animal with toxic elbows. But Strange Survivors is more than a collection of curiosities—it is a love letter to science and an argument for the continuing relevance of this evolutionary battle as we face the threat of resistant bacteria and the need for novel medical therapies.

Story
19 aprile 1943. Albert Hofmann, chimico in forze all'azienda farmaceutica Sandoz di Basilea, inforca la bicicletta e si avvia verso casa. Sembra un giorno come un altro, se non fosse che ha appena assunto 250 microgrammi di dietilammide-25 dell'acido lisergico, un composto da lui stesso sintetizzato nella ricerca di uno stimolante della circolazione sanguigna. Ciò che accade durante il tragitto sconvolge la sua nozione del reale: visioni coloratissime, meravigliose e mostruose, percezioni di realtà parallele, terrori, euforie. È nato l'Lsd.

Che cos'è il dolore? Dove si situa? È uguale nelle femmine e nei maschi? È presente negli animali? Il libro risponde a queste e alle altre domande che riguardano l'esperienza negativa di certo più comune provata da tutti svariate volte nella vita. Al contempo il dolore rimane però un enigma difficile da comprendere a fondo, poiché rappresenta un vissuto personale che appartiene solo alla sfera privata. Il fattore fondamentale è che esso non è mai uguale: chi sta leggendo queste righe lo percepisce differentemente da qualsiasi altro individuo.

Pillole di evoluzione umana. Da prendere una alla volta o anche tutte insieme. Per aiutarci a comprendere meglio noi stessi e il posto dell'uomo nella natura. Da Lucy ai Neanderthal, dall'enigmatico Homo naledia Ötzi: attraverso una serie di istantanee scattate nel panorama della paleoantropologia degli ultimi anni, con la guida di uno scienziato-divulgatore, conosceremo i nostri parenti estinti e i tanti antenati che abbiamo nel tempo profondo. Un puzzle complesso e avvincente le cui tessere sono come pagine strappate di un libro da restaurare, quello della nostra preistoria.

Basata sulle più recenti scoperte scientifiche, questa biografia racconta vita, morte e miracoli dei nostri lontani antenati. È una storia avventurosa, divertente, drammatica, sulle diverse specie umane che hanno popolato la Terra e che hanno lasciato tracce nei nostri geni. Anche noi, ultimi sopravvissuti, siamo stati sull'orlo dell'estinzione. Poi abbiamo conquistato il mondo, grazie ad una particolare caratteristica della nostra mente. In Homo sapiens si racconta anche la vita dei bambini, delle donne e delle prime società umane dell'ultima era glaciale.

Il volume, in una nuova edizione aggiornata e ampliata, traccia la storia dell'evoluzione umana avvalendosi delle più recenti acquisizioni dell'analisi dei fossili e del DNA. La scoperta di nuove specie estinte e la ricostruzione del genoma dei neandertaliani e di altre specie hanno infatti fornito dati importantissimi. Oggi non sappiamo soltanto che la specie Homo sapiens non può essere suddivisa in razze e che alcuni nostri antichi parenti erano probabilmente in grado di utilizzare un linguaggio complesso simile al nostro, ma anche che in noi sono presenti alcuni dei loro geni.
