Summary

Nanotechnology has shown immense promise for advancing blood glucose control. This technology offers the potential to safeguard pancreatic cells from autoimmune destruction by driving the creation of innovative therapeutic agents that can be delivered to specific targets.
 
In this book, you will find a comprehensive exploration of diabetes and its approved medical treatments. The book delves into how nanotechnology can amplify the efficacy of current treatment modalities, potentially paving the way for a gene therapy solution to combat this disease. Starting with the history of diabetes treatment, the book explains treatment challenges for diabetes before getting into the three ways nanoscience is helping in diabetes treatment: insulin delivery, drug delivery and nucleotide delivery. Each chapter is contributed by accomplished experts in their respective fields, who strive to offer a thorough, yet accessible discussion of the subject.

    Marooned in LA by the pandemic, a marine biologist rediscovers the delights and wonders of the natural world in her own backyard. 
     
     
     
    Conservationist and marine biologist Maddalena Bearzi made her career studying the wild creatures of the deep, but when COVID-19 made landfall on the California coast this seafaring scientist found herself shuttered up ashore, her wide blue world constricted by pandemic lockdown. Never good at sitting idle, she despaired at the confines of her Los Angeles flat—until she began to find wonder in the wilderness of her own backyard. 
     
     
     
    Stranded charts Bearzi's discovery of both rapture and resilience in the unsung wildlife of urban LA. With a green thumb and a canine sidekick, she finds as much to marvel at in her garden's singing blackbirds, night-blooming cacti, and industrious wasps as in the whales, dolphins, and sea lions at the center of her maritime adventures. Discovering in the quotidian an antidote to the grief occasioned by captivity and climate chaos, Bearzi reveals how each of us can take heart, find courage, and discover inspiration in the thrumming systems of life that surround us. With a scientist's precision and a poet's instinct, she invites us to look at, listen to, and revel in the everyday grandeur of the natural world—and to embrace, with urgency, our responsibility to sustain it.

    Messy code is a nuisance. "Tidying" code, to make it more readable, requires breaking it up into manageable sections. In this practical guide, author Kent Beck, creator of Extreme Programming and pioneer of software patterns, suggests when and where you might apply tidyings to improve your code while keeping the overall structure of the system in mind. 
     
     
     
    Instead of trying to master tidying all at once, this book lets you try out a few examples that make sense for your problem. If you have a big function containing many lines of code, you'll learn how to logically divide it into smaller chunks. Along the way, you'll learn the theory behind software design: coupling, cohesion, discounted cash flows, and optionality. This book helps you: 
     
     
     
    ● Understand the basic theory of how software design works and the forces that act on it 
     
     
     
    ● Explore the difference between changes to a system's behavior and changes to its structure 
     
     
     
    ● Improve your programming experience by sometimes tidying first and sometimes tidying after 
     
     
     
    ● Learn how to make large changes in small, safe steps 
     
     
     
    ● Approach software design as an exercise in human relationships

    The Earth’s formation is a story of cosmic collisions, immense heat, and gradual cooling that set the stage for the planet we know today. Approximately 4.6 billion years ago, the solar system emerged from a vast cloud of dust and gas. This cloud, known as the solar nebula, began to collapse under gravity, forming the Sun at its center. Around this young star, particles of dust and rock started clumping together, eventually leading to the creation of planets, including Earth. 
    In its early years, Earth was a molten sphere, continuously bombarded by asteroids and comets. These impacts contributed to the planet’s mass and introduced essential elements like water. As gravitational forces compressed Earth’s interior, temperatures soared, causing heavy materials such as iron and nickel to sink toward the core while lighter elements like silicon and oxygen remained near the surface. This process, known as planetary differentiation, led to the formation of Earth’s three primary layers: the core, mantle, and crust. 
    The early atmosphere of Earth was vastly different from what it is today. Initially, it consisted of hydrogen and helium, but solar winds stripped these gases away. Volcanic activity and ongoing collisions released vast amounts of carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, and ammonia, forming a thick and toxic atmosphere. Over time, as volcanic eruptions continued, water vapor condensed to form clouds, eventually leading to heavy rainfall that lasted for thousands of years. These rains filled low-lying areas, giving rise to the first oceans.
