Cardiac Cowboys - The Heroic...

M.D. Gerald Imber

Cardiac Cowboys is the dramatic story of five deeply flawed geniuses who together—and in competition with each other—invented open-heart surgery against all conventional medical wisdom and saved millions of lives. 
 
 
 
A decade after World War II, there was still no such thing as open-heart surgery, and yet half a million Americans were dying from heart disease every year. One in a hundred children would suffer and die from congenital heart disease as well, and doctors did little other than predict their deaths. After the first daring operation in 1954 and through the next three decades, five heroic surgeons braved the scorn of their peers, withstood fierce desperation, and faced possible death in order to devise procedures that would save overwhelming numbers of those doomed children and provide hope for a new life to all manner of heart-failing individuals. Devising and mastering heart transplants and bypass surgery, they invented artificial heart valves, the lifesaving pacemaker, and worked toward the holy grail of an artificial heart as their private and professional lives imploded. The story of the Cardiac Cowboys, their outsized personalities, and often self-destructive behavior is a saga more thrilling and exhilarating than fiction.

Data Science for Everyone -...

Craig Dames

Data science is a multidisciplinary field that combines statistics, computer science, and domain expertise to extract meaningful insights from data. In today's digital era, data is generated at an unprecedented rate, making data science one of the most valuable skills in various industries. From healthcare to finance, businesses leverage data science to improve decision-making, optimize processes, and drive innovation. 
At its core, data science follows a structured approach that includes data collection, cleaning, exploration, modeling, and interpretation. The first step in any data science project is acquiring relevant data. This data can come from multiple sources, such as databases, APIs, or even social media. Once collected, it often requires cleaning, as raw data may contain errors, inconsistencies, or missing values that can impact the accuracy of analyses. 
After cleaning, exploratory data analysis (EDA) helps uncover patterns, trends, and relationships within the data. Visualization techniques, such as charts and graphs, make it easier to understand complex datasets. EDA also aids in feature selection, a crucial step in preparing data for machine learning models. Machine learning, a subset of artificial intelligence, allows computers to learn from data and make predictions. Common machine learning techniques include supervised learning, where models learn from labeled data, and unsupervised learning, which identifies hidden patterns without predefined labels.
