Sinopse

This is the third book in a series presenting Nobel Prizes in the life sciences using the remarkably rich archives of nominations and reviews which are kept secret for 50 years after the awards have been made. The two previous books are The present book discusses the prizes in physiology or medicine 1963-65. The 1963 prize recognized milestone discoveries in the field of neurosciences, the way electrical impulses are generated and spread in nerves. The impressive developments of insights into tantalizing brain functions, like consciousness and memory, is discussed in the perspective of prizes both before and after the 1963 prize. The prize in 1964 marked the advanced biochemical venture that led to a full understanding of the synthesis of cholesterol, a central molecule for providing flexibility of the membranes of the trillions of cell in our body. The importance of this molecule for the appearance of cardiovascular diseases and the possibilities to prevent them is presented in the light of other prizes earlier and later in this field. The 1965 prize recognized three impressive French intellectuals, Lwoff, Monod and Jacob. Their contributions allowed the full maturation of the initial phase of the emerging field of molecular biology. The comprehension of the information flow from DNA via RNA to proteins was the source of a revolution of life sciences and of medicine.

    Geochemistry is that branch of science which uses the fundamental principles of Chemistry to understand, analyze and explain the mechanisms behind and working principles of major geological systems including the oceans as well as Earth's crust. But the scope of Geochemistry extends much beyond our planet earth and extends upto the solar system so much so that its contribution is immense in understanding important phenomena like formation of planets, origins of granite and basalt and mantle convection. 
    The fascinating factor of Geochemistry is its position which is primarily in between exact sciences such as physics, chemistry and mathematics and that of natural sciences. The shape of the quantitative approach taken in physical chemistry, thermodynamics, analytical chemistry and mathematics to natural observation opens up uncharted territories and provides enormous advantages. These are neutralized, however, by the inevitable shortcomings that have to be faced when writing a script on geochemistry: and the most important of them is the need to summarize and apply quite often in a superficial and incomplete fashion, concepts that would require an entire volume if they were to be described with sufficient completeness and accuracy.

    From a giant of health care policy, an engaging and enlightening account of why American health care is so expensive—and why it doesn't have to be. 
    Uwe Reinhardt was a towering figure and moral conscience of health care policy in the United States and beyond. Famously bipartisan, he advised presidents and Congress on health reform and originated central features of the Affordable Care Act. In Priced Out, Reinhardt offers an engaging and enlightening account of today's U.S. health care system, explaining why it costs so much more and delivers so much less than the systems of every other advanced country, why this situation is morally indefensible, and how we might improve it. 
    The problem, Reinhardt says, is not one of economics but of social ethics. There is no American political consensus on a fundamental question other countries settled long ago: to what extent should we be our brothers' and sisters' keepers when it comes to health care? 
    An incisive look at the American health care system, Priced Out dispels the confusion, ignorance, myths, and misinformation that hinder effective reform.
