Sinopsis

This book explores the remarkable journey of blood—from biology to culture, from ancient myths to cutting-edge medicine. It unpacks how blood has shaped human evolution, survival, and migration, and how it continues to reveal hidden stories through DNA, transfusions, and gene therapies. Beyond its role in hospitals, blood flows through our art, literature, and rituals, carrying meanings of life, sacrifice, strength, and emotion. With simple language and engaging narratives, readers learn about blood’s scientific makeup, historical milestones, cultural symbolism, and global health challenges. It highlights real-life heroes—scientists, donors, and volunteers—whose efforts save lives daily. It also explains critical health information like blood tests, types, flow, and pregnancy changes. This book invites everyone—whether curious about science, interested in history, or seeking practical health knowledge—to appreciate blood as more than a fluid, but as a shared essence of humanity. Blood connects us, teaches us, and ultimately defines our existence.

    The first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the period "before Tuskegee"—from 1890 to 1940 
     
     
     
    Long before the U.S. government began conducting secret radiation and germ-warfare experiments, and long before the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, medical professionals had introduced—and hotly debated the ethics of—the use of human subjects in medical experiments. In Subjected to Science, Susan Lederer provides the first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the earlier period, from 1890 to 1940. 
     
     
     
    Lederer offers detailed accounts of experiments—benign and otherwise—conducted on both healthy and unhealthy men, women, and children, including the yellow fever experiments (which ultimately became the subject of a Broadway play and Hollywood film), Udo Wile's "dental drill" experiments on insane patients, and Hideyo Noguchi's syphilis experiments, which involved injecting a number of healthy children and adults with the syphilis germ, luetin.

    Part sweeping evocation of Earth's rhythms, part literary archive, part post-human novel, The Nature Book collages descriptions of the natural world into a singular symphonic paean to the planet. 
     
     
     
    What does our nature writing say about us, and more urgently, what would it say without us? Tom Comitta investigates these questions and more in The Nature Book, a "literary supercut" that arranges writing about the natural world from three hundred works of fiction into a provocative re-envisioning of the novel. With fiction's traditional background of flora and fauna brought to the fore, people and their structures disappear, giving center stage to animals, landforms, and weather patterns—honored in their own right rather than for their ambient role in human drama. The Nature Book challenges the confines of anthropocentrism with sublime artistic vision, traversing mountains, forests, oceans, and space to shift our attention toward the magnificently complex and interconnected world around us.

    Biochemistry - Biochemistry is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes and substances that occur within living organisms. As a multidisciplinary field, it blends principles from chemistry, biology, and physics to understand the molecular mechanisms that govern life. At its core, biochemistry seeks to explain how cells and organisms function at a molecular level, providing insights into the structure, function, and interactions of biomolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. This knowledge is crucial not only for understanding the basic processes of life but also for advancing medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology. 
    Chemistry -  Understanding the principles of chemistry has numerous practical applications in everyday life. It influences the development of pharmaceuticals, agricultural products, and new materials like plastics and metals. Chemistry also plays a critical role in the food industry, as it helps improve food preservation, flavor, and safety. Additionally, chemists are essential in developing clean and sustainable energy sources, creating technologies that enhance our quality of life.
