Life on earth is facing unprecedented challenges from global warming, war, and mass extinctions. The plight of seeds is a less visible but no less fundamental threat to our survival. Seeds are at the heart of the planet's life-support systems. Their power to regenerate and adapt are essential to maintaining our food supply and our ability to cope with a changing climate. Environmental journalist Claire Hope Cummings exposes the stories behind the rise of industrial agriculture and plant biotechnology, the fall of public interest science, and the folly of patenting seeds.

This is a book that I would have liked to read 30 years ago, but unfortunately there was no willingness on the part of dissident scientists and Nobel laureates to publish this data, which was kept in a very small academic and governmental circle. The biggest scam in history investigates the germ theory and whether it holds up to scientific and empirical scrutiny. The evolutive origin of viruses is a little enigma for the official science and they do not even agree on whether these biological entitis are living beings or not. Some of these mysterious microscopic beings have apparently been ...

Scientific discoveries in the field of genomics just began about 50 years ago. These breakthroughs answered many questions about how we are built and live. The discoveries also proved the power and importance of the tiny chromosome.

Contemporary Issues: Science, Africa, and More attends to very sensitive and contemporary issues pertaining to biotechnology such as human cloning and genetic engineering. It also comprises such areas as affirmative action, one's right to abortion, one's right to sexual choice(s), questions relating to whether Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a hero or not, and other similar but controversial issues. In addition, there are topics included in Contemporary Issues relating to matters of ethnicity, culture, and development, in particular as they impact Africa.

Our health care system is crippled by desperate efforts to prevent the inevitable. A third of the national Medicare budget - nearly $175 billion - is spent on the final year of life, and a third of that amount on the final month, often on expensive (and futile) treatments. Such efforts betray a fundamental flaw in how we think about healthcare: we squander resources on hopeless situations, instead of using them to actually improve health.

We did it! We combined both Volume 1 and 2 of the Scientific Breakthroughs series into one book!

Certainly, some who claim to have found evidence of modern dinosaurs are manufacturing evidence, but just as many are simply describing what they saw, found, or witnessed. We need to dig deeper. There is a reason that people have seen dinosaurs in the recent past. There is a reason that most animals were said to be unclean-abominations to God as recognized in the Bible. This group included all reptiles. In other ancient records they are called miscreated animals and so many other ancient documents have similar claims. We can be pretty sure God wasn't upset with his own animals. There is a ...

This book (Reference Edition) provides an introduction to Cleaning Verification and Validation for pharmaceutical and biological equipment and facilities. It provides a practical framework for the design and execution of cleaning validation. Cleaning Validation is a regulatory requirement as per GMP. There are many organisations and bodies which provide guidance of implementing a Cleaning Program such as PIC/s ICH, PDA reports, EU GMP V4 to name a few. The key elements to achieving a successful cleaning validation include (1) understanding the sources of residues (soils, excipients, actives...

What is embryonic stem cell research? Why is it so controversial? What is its relationship to human cloning? Events are moving so fast and biotechnology seems so complicated that many of us don't have an informed opinion about issues that are remaking the human future before our very eyes.

La materia è intelligente. Solitamente pensiamo i materiali che ci circondano come semplici strumenti, passivi e incapaci di interagire con l’ambiente in modo complesso, ma a ben guardare non è affatto così. Numerosi materiali sono in grado di adattarsi agli stimoli che ricevono, di assemblarsi e ripararsi in autonomia e, in alcuni casi, di conservare una memoria del proprio passato.
