  For many of us, the great scientific discoveries of the modern age—the Big Bang, evolution, quantum physics, relativity—point to an existence that is bleak, devoid of meaning, pointless. But in The Sacred Depths of Nature, eminent biologist Ursula Goodenough shows us that the scientific world view need not be a source of despair. Indeed, it can be a wellspring of solace and hope. 
   
   
   
  This volume reconciles the modern scientific understanding of reality with our timeless spiritual yearnings for reverence and continuity. Looking at topics such as evolution, emotions, sexuality, and death, Goodenough writes with rich, uncluttered detail about the workings of nature in general and of living creatures in particular. Her luminous clarity makes it possible for even non-scientists to appreciate that the origins of life and the universe are no less meaningful because of our increasingly scientific understanding of them. Goodenough's spiritual reflections respond to the complexity of nature with vibrant emotional intensity and a sense of reverent wonder. This new edition offers a deepened consideration of emergent properties and emergent dynamics, as well as an exploration of their role as the generators of life's complexity. Goodenough also expands upon the ethic of ecomorality in a new chapter, and incorporates new quotes, figures, and poems in her analysis.

  Diverticulitis - Healing from...

  Diverticulitis and diverticular disease are conditions that affect the digestive system, specifically the colon. The colon is a crucial part of the digestive tract, where the body absorbs nutrients and water from food. Diverticulosis, the precursor to diverticulitis, occurs when small, bulging pouches, known as diverticula, form in the walls of the colon. These pouches develop when weak spots in the colon’s muscular layer give way under pressure, creating pockets where waste can accumulate. While diverticulosis is common, especially in individuals over the age of 40, it often goes unnoticed because it doesn’t typically cause symptoms. 
  However, when one or more of these pouches becomes inflamed or infected, it leads to diverticulitis. Diverticulitis can cause significant pain, particularly in the lower left side of the abdomen, and may be accompanied by fever, nausea, and changes in bowel habits, such as diarrhea or constipation. The severity of diverticulitis can vary, ranging from mild cases that can be treated with antibiotics and dietary changes to severe cases that may require hospitalization or surgery. 
  The causes of diverticulitis are still not fully understood, but several factors are believed to contribute to its development. One of the most significant factors is a low-fiber diet, which can lead to constipation and increased pressure within the colon. Other risk factors include aging, obesity, lack of physical activity, smoking, and certain medications, such as steroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Genetic predisposition may also play a role in the development of diverticular disease.
