  “Nancy Wexler’s story is a lesson in courage, fortitude, heroism, and above all … love. I read it in one gulp. My heart is full.” — Carol Burnett, actor and writer  
  When Nancy Wexler was 23, her father revealed that the mysterious illness inexorably diminishing her mother had a name. Huntington’s disease, a fatal, hereditary, neurodegenerative disorder. Newly aware she had a fifty-fifty chance of developing the same condition, Wexler could have retreated. Instead, she immersed herself in what has become a lifetime’s pursuit of the causes of the disease and a cure. 
  She pioneered groundbreaking fieldwork that enabled the identification of the responsible gene. She took charge of what is now the Huntington's Disease Foundation and made it a force to be reckoned with. And when the human genome became a focus of scientific study, she was an eloquent voice for patients in disease gene research and insistent advocate for ethical use of genome sequence information. 
  Now living with Huntington’s disease, Nancy Wexler has drawn on decades of letters, research notes, and vivid memories to describe her remarkable life with warmth, wit, and unsparing honesty. 
  She takes us from a privileged but shadowed California childhood to the shores of Venezuela’s Lake Maracaibo, where she and colleagues earned the community trust that enabled them to collect blood samples and construct pedigrees, to the innovative consortium of research laboratories where those samples revealed the malevolent gene, to the halls of Congress where she pressed legislators for resources, and the boardrooms where philanthropists were persuaded into action. 
  In this book, Wexler tells a unique story about the intertwining of personal stakes and professional passions, a testament to her courage, persistence, and belief that science can change destinies—one life, one family, one gene at a time.

  A guided journey through the inner workings of Earth, the cloaked mysteries of other planets in our solar system, and beyond. 
   
   
   
  Earth, from space, looks like a shimmering gem suspended in an inky, infinite expanse. But this serene image masks the magnificent and volatile interior forces that make life possible for millions of species on the surface. The placid appearances of our neighboring planets similarly belie their powers—and science fiction-worthy features, like diamond rain. The daily machinations of Earth's deep interior make the planet a habitable, yet sometimes treacherous, place to live. Drill down thousands of miles through our built environments and soil, sand, water, rock, and minerals to the outer (mainly liquid iron with nickel) and inner core, encountering intense convection, roiling metals, hidden continents, and shifting tectonic plates. Discover the effects of magnetism, rotation, and seismic activity seen and sensed in the forms of auroras, hurricanes, volcanoes, and earthquakes, among other manifestations. 
   
   
   
  Join this exciting journey to far-flung interstellar locations and the center of the Earth to learn what lies beneath our feet, and why it's the best real estate in our solar system.

  On Time - Causality and the...

  Jan Zaanen

  This text revolves around a new and unusual view on the most fundamental puzzle of physics. It focusses on the key aspect that makes the role of the time dimension fundamentally different: causality. The implicit and intuitive way by which causality is usually taken for granted is just made explicit and less self-evident, shedding a new light on the gravity-quantum conflict. The case is made that gravity is a necessary condition for a causal universe. But upon turning to the "pure" unitary quantum physics explaining the nature of matter one is dealing with the strictly a-causal time expressed through the thermal quantum field theory machinery. When this a-causal microscopic and causal macroscopic world meet, one encounters the wavefunction collapse, that itself may be rooted in the quantum-gravity conflict. Modern ideas are discussed resting on eigenstate thermalization showing how this may lie eventually at the origin of irreversible thermodynamics. The case is anchored in the sophisticated modern mathematical machinery of both general relativity and quantum physics which is normally barely disseminated beyond the theoretical physics floors. 
   
   
   
  The book is unique in the regard that the consequences of this machinery are explained in an original, descriptive language conveying the conceptual consequences while avoiding mathematical technicalities.
