  BRAINSPOTTING - Adventures in...

  As a trainee doctor, Andrew Lees was enthralled by his mentors: esteemed neurologists who combined the precision of mathematicians, the scrupulosity of entomologists and the solemnity of undertakers in their diagnoses and treatments. For them, there was no such thing as an unexplained symptom or psychosomatic problem – no difficult cases, only interesting ones – and it was only a matter of time before all disorders of the brain would be understood in terms of anatomical electrical and chemical connections.
  Today, this kind of 'holistic neurology' is on the brink of extinction as a slavish adherence to protocols and algorithms – plus a worship of machines – runs the risk of destroying the key foundational clinical skills of listening, observation and imagination that have been at the heart of the discipline for over 150 years. In this series of brilliant, insightful and autobiographical essays, Andrew Lees takes us on a kind of Sherlock Holmes tour of neurology, giving the reader insight into – and defending – the deep analytical tools that the best neurologists still rely on to diagnose patients: to heal minds and to fix brains.

  In recent decades, technology has become a defining force in the development and transformation of cities. From the industrial revolution to the rise of the internet, technological advancements have continually reshaped urban life, making cities hubs of innovation, connectivity, and economic growth. Today, as cities face growing populations, climate change, and resource constraints, technology plays a central role in addressing these challenges while also opening new possibilities for urban living. The integration of digital technologies, automation, and data analytics is driving what we now recognize as the emergence of "smart cities," where every aspect of urban life is enhanced by technology. These advancements not only improve efficiency but also offer the potential to foster more sustainable, livable, and equitable urban environments. 
  The influence of technology in cities extends across various domains, including infrastructure, transportation, healthcare, and governance. In terms of urban infrastructure, cities are adopting digital systems for managing everything from electricity grids to water distribution, allowing for more responsive and efficient service delivery. Transportation has also undergone a transformation with the introduction of autonomous vehicles, electric cars, and new mobility services like ride-sharing, reshaping how people move within cities and reducing the environmental impact of urban travel. Similarly, the integration of sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) devices enables real-time data collection that informs city management, improving everything from traffic flow to waste management.

  From the acclaimed environmentalist, a call to harness solar power and rewrite our scientific, economic, and political future. 
   
   
   
  Every eighteen hours, the world puts up a nuclear power plant's–worth of solar panels. At the same time, combustion continues to melt our poles, poison our bodies, and drive our global inequality. And it is no longer necessary: For the first time in 700,000 years, we know how to catch the sun’s rays and convert them into energy. 
   
   
   
  In Here Comes the Sun, world-renowned author Bill McKibben tells the story of our sudden spike in power from the sun and wind. McKibben traces the arrival of plentiful, inexpensive solar energy, which, if it accelerates, gives us a chance not just to limit climate change’s damage, but to reorder the world on saner and more humane grounds. Getting there means overcoming obstacles like Big Oil, but McKibben sees a chance for a new civilization: one that looks up to the sun, every day, as the star that fuels our world.
