Summary

Exoplanet Habitability tackles the captivating question of whether life exists beyond Earth by exploring the factors that make a planet habitable. This book is unique because it emphasizes how interconnected different elements, like a planet's geological activity and atmospheric composition, are in determining its potential to harbor life. Did you know that even the type of star a planet orbits significantly impacts its habitability? Or that scientists study extreme Earth environments as analogs for potential alien habitats? The book delves into planetary science, astrobiology, and atmospheric science to provide a holistic understanding of habitability. It begins by laying the groundwork with essential definitions and the history of the search for extraterrestrial life. Subsequent chapters systematically examine stellar characteristics, planetary geology, and atmospheric science, building towards a comprehensive framework. This approach moves beyond simple habitable zone definitions, offering a more nuanced perspective on the conditions necessary for extraterrestrial life. By presenting data from advanced telescopes and computer models, Exoplanet Habitability gives readers a window into the cutting-edge research shaping our understanding of exoplanets. The book highlights that assessing habitability isn't just about a planet's distance from its star, but also its geological activity, atmospheric composition, and orbital dynamics, offering a spectrum of possibilities for life's existence.

  • Preventing Nuclear Annihilation - Addresses by Ronald Reagan for the Strategic Defense Initiative - cover

    On March 23, 1983, President Ronald Reagan gave an address to the nation from the Oval Office challenging “the scientific community … to turn their great talents … to the cause of mankind and world peace, [and] to give us the means of rendering … nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete.” Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative to protect America from nuclear annihilation was derided by critics as an unworkable Star Wars program, and the Clinton Administration ended the Strategic Defense Initiative in 1993. There is no effective system in place today to protect the American population from incoming missiles from an expanding list of countries with nuclear capabilities. 
    On April 13, 2024, Iran launched, according to Wikipedia, “around 170 drones, over 30 cruise missiles, and more than 120 ballistic missiles toward Israel”. Israel and a coalition of partners, again according to Wikipedia, “destroyed 99 percent of the incoming weapons, most before they reached Israeli airspace.” Damage from the attack was minor. While Israel is protected by an Iron Dome, the United States has no such protection. 
    This audiobook includes 4 speeches by President Reagan: His address introducing the Strategic Defense Initiative in 1983, his address to the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France in 1985, his address on national security in 1986, and his address on the Soviet-U.S. Summit in 1987.

    Now that we have sequenced the human genome, what does it mean? In The Postgenomic Condition, Jenny Reardon critically examines the decade after the Human Genome Project, and the fundamental questions about meaning, value and justice this landmark achievement left in its wake. Drawing on more than a decade of research—in molecular biology labs, commercial startups, governmental agencies, and civic spaces—Reardon demonstrates how the extensive efforts to transform genomics from high tech informatics practiced by a few to meaningful knowledge beneficial to all exposed the limits of long-cherished liberal modes of knowing and governing life. Those in the American South challenged the value of being included in genomics when no hospital served their community.  Ethicists and lawyers charged with overseeing Scottish DNA and data questioned how to develop a system of ownership for these resources when their capacity to create things of value—new personalized treatments—remained largely unrealized. Molecular biologists who pioneered genomics asked whether their practices of thinking could survive the deluge of data produced by the growing power of sequencing machines. While the media is filled with grand visions of precision medicine, The Postgenomic Condition shares these actual challenges of the scientists, entrepreneurs, policy makers, bioethicists, lawyers, and patient advocates who sought to leverage liberal democratic practices to render genomic data a new source of meaning and value for interpreting and caring for life. It brings into rich empirical focus the resulting hard on-the-ground questions about how to know and live on a depleted but data-rich, interconnected yet fractured planet, where technoscience garners significant resources, but deeper questions of knowledge and justice urgently demand attention.

    If your child has been diagnosed with epilepsy, you may have questions regarding the condition. What causes epilepsy? How is it diagnosed? What are the available treatments? How can I help my child? It is not unusual for a parent to experience feelings of helplessness, fear, grief, or anger after a child has been diagnosed with epilepsy. Local epilepsy associations can provide you with valuable information regarding your concerns. Many associations have helpful resource materials on epilepsy and a staff committed to answering questions and providing information. Often associations offer in-service training to schools which educate others about the condition. Associations may also be able to provide you with support groups, trained professionals, or other families who are facing similar challenges. In some cases, a diagnosis of epilepsy may require little change in lifestyle. In other cases, there may be significant change for the child and the family. In either situation, learning about epilepsy can empower you and help you make informed decisions regarding medical treatment, care, or safety. Learning about epilepsy may also help to alleviate your own anxiety and allow you to focus on the needs of your child.
