  Roadkill: Unveiling the True Cost of Our Toxic Relationship with Cars, by Professor Henrietta Moore and Arthur Kay, explores the philosophical implications of car culture, as well as the practical impacts it has on your money, your taxes, your neighborhood, your planet, your health, and your happiness. 
   
  While the car has been marketed as a symbol of "freedom", the authors convincingly argue that it has limited the flourishing of our cities and restricted our choices. How can we fix our toxic relationship with cars? The authors offer a new way of thinking that promises to multiply your choices, improve your city, and expand your freedoms.  
   
  Inside the book, you'll find real-world examples of the human and monetary costs imposed by cars; philosophical arguments explaining how car-centric cities restrict the freedoms of drivers and non-drivers alike; a catalogue of ideas and approaches for urban designers, transport planners, policymakers, and mayors; and much more. 
   
  Roadkill is a persuasive and illuminating call to action for city dwellers, drivers, environmentalists, urbanists, and policymakers―anyone interested in practical ways to improve your life and expand your freedoms.

  The Human Brain - Anatomy...

  The human brain is the command center of the body, responsible for processing information, regulating bodily functions, and enabling cognitive abilities such as thinking, memory, and emotions. As the most complex organ in the human body, the brain contains billions of neurons that communicate through intricate networks, allowing for seamless coordination of voluntary and involuntary actions. Understanding the structure and function of the brain is essential for gaining insights into neurological health, mental well-being, and the mechanisms underlying various cognitive and motor processes. 
  The brain is divided into three primary regions: the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem. The cerebrum, the largest part of the brain, is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as reasoning, problem-solving, language, and sensory perception. It is further divided into four lobes—frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital—each with distinct roles in processing information. The cerebellum, located at the back of the brain, is crucial for coordinating movement, maintaining balance, and fine motor control. The brainstem, connecting the brain to the spinal cord, regulates vital autonomic functions such as breathing, heart rate, and digestion, ensuring the body’s survival. 
  Neurons, the fundamental units of the brain, communicate through electrical and chemical signals. This intricate communication network enables the processing of sensory inputs, the initiation of motor responses, and the storage of memories. Supporting cells known as glial cells play a crucial role in maintaining brain health by providing nutrients, removing waste, and protecting neurons from damage. Neurotransmitters, chemical messengers in the brain, facilitate signal transmission between neurons and influence mood, behavior, and cognitive functions.

  Lyme disease is an infectious disease caused by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi. B. burgdorferi is transmitted to humans by biting an infected black-legged or deer tick. The tick becomes infected after feeding on infected deer, birds, or mice.A tick has to be present on the skin for at least 36 hours to transmit the infection. Many people with Lyme disease have no memory of a tick bite.Lyme disease was first recognized in the town of Old Lyme, Connecticut, in 1975. It’s the most common tick-borne illness in Europe and the United States.People who live or spend time in wooded areas known for disease transmission are more likely to get this illness. People with domesticated animals visiting wooded regions also have a higher risk of developing Lyme disease.Cases of Lyme disease have varied yearly but have steadily increased for the past 20 years in the United States.Lyme disease is not common in all United States and is primarily concentrated in the Northeast and upper Midwest regions.
