  Yeast Infection - Causes...

  Yeast infections are a common and often uncomfortable condition caused by an overgrowth of yeast, a type of fungus that naturally resides in the human body. While yeast is typically harmless in balanced amounts, certain conditions can trigger an overproduction, leading to infection. The most common culprit behind yeast infections is Candida albicans, though other species of Candida can also be responsible. This chapter explores what yeast infections are, their various types, and the role of Candida in the human body. 
  A yeast infection occurs when the natural balance of microorganisms is disrupted. In a healthy body, bacteria such as Lactobacillus help keep yeast levels in check. However, factors like antibiotic use, hormonal changes, a weakened immune system, and high sugar intake can upset this balance, allowing yeast to multiply rapidly. The most well-known type of yeast infection is vaginal candidiasis, affecting a significant number of women at some point in their lives. Symptoms typically include itching, burning, redness, swelling, and a thick, white discharge. Although vaginal yeast infections are the most common, yeast infections can also affect other parts of the body, including the mouth (oral thrush), skin folds, and the digestive tract. 
  Yeast infections are not limited to women; men and children can also be affected. Oral thrush is particularly common in infants and individuals with compromised immune systems, such as those undergoing chemotherapy or living with HIV/AIDS. Skin yeast infections often occur in warm, moist areas like under the breasts, in the groin, or between toes, leading to red, itchy rashes that can be difficult to manage without proper treatment. In severe cases, yeast infections can become systemic, affecting internal organs and becoming life-threatening, though this is rare and usually occurs in individuals with severely weakened immune systems.

  Biotechnology - The Future of...

  Biotechnology is a field that has revolutionized many aspects of science, health, agriculture, and industry. Defined broadly, it is the use of living organisms or their components to develop or create new products. Biotechnology combines elements from various scientific disciplines, including biology, chemistry, physics, and engineering, to harness biological systems and organisms in ways that can benefit society. The origins of biotechnology can be traced back thousands of years, though its modern applications are far more advanced, opening up new possibilities that were once beyond imagination. 
  The history of biotechnology begins with early humans’ use of fermentation in food production. Ancient civilizations used microbial fermentation to produce alcoholic beverages, bread, and other food products. While these early practices were largely based on trial and error, they laid the groundwork for what would later become a scientifically rigorous and highly specialized field. Over time, as our understanding of biology and genetics advanced, biotechnology expanded beyond simple fermentation. The discovery of DNA, the identification of genes, and the subsequent development of genetic engineering techniques paved the way for biotechnology to play a central role in fields such as medicine, agriculture, and environmental conservation. 
  One of the key milestones in the development of biotechnology was the invention of recombinant DNA technology in the 1970s. This groundbreaking innovation enabled scientists to manipulate genetic material in organisms and create genetically modified organisms (GMOs). The ability to transfer genes between species brought new possibilities for improving crops, developing vaccines, and producing medicines. The first genetically engineered human insulin, for example, revolutionized the treatment of diabetes and marked a significant leap in biotechnological advancement.

  Windswept: Life Nature and Deep...

  ‘Windswept is a wonderful work, prose painted in bold, bright strokes like a Scottish Colourist's canvas’ ROBERT MACFARLANE 
  ‘An instant classic of British nature-writing’ SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 
  A few years ago, Annie Worsley traded a busy life in academia to take on a small-holding or croft on the west coast of Scotland. It is a land ruled by great elemental forces – light, wind and water – that hold sway over how land forms, where the sea sits and what grows. Windswept explores what it means to live in this rugged, awe-inspiring place of unquenchable spirit and wild weather. 
  Walk with Annie as she lays quartz stones in the river to reflect the moonlight and attract salmon, as she watches otters play tag across the beach, as she is awoken by the feral bellowing of stags. Travel back in time to the epic story of how Scotland’s valleys were carved by glaciers, rivers scythed paths through mountains, how the earliest people found a way of life in the Highlands – and how she then found a home there millennia later. 
  With stunning imagery and lyrical prose, Windswept evokes a place where nature reigns supreme and humans must learn to adapt. It is her paean to a beloved place, one richer with colour, sound and life than perhaps anywhere else in the UK. 
  Annie Worsley's Windswept is a top-tier memoir that intertwines personal narratives with the history of Britain's ecosystems. Her commitment to environmental conservation and habitat protection is evident throughout, making this autobiography a must-read for those interested in European non-fiction. 
  For fans of Raynor Winn (Landlines), Sharon Blackie (The Enchanted Life), John Lewis-Stempel (England), Will Millard (The Way of the Hermit), and John D Burns (Wild Winter).
