  The life of trailblazing physicist Mildred Dresselhaus, who expanded our understanding of the physical world. 
   
   
   
  As a girl in New York City in the 1940s, Mildred "Millie" Dresselhaus was taught that there were only three career options open to women: secretary, nurse, or teacher. In Carbon Queen, science writer Maia Weinstock describes how, with curiosity and drive, Dresselhaus defied expectations and forged a career as a pioneering scientist and engineer. Dresselhaus made highly influential discoveries about the properties of carbon and other materials and helped reshape our world in countless ways—from electronics to aviation to medicine to energy. She was also a trailblazer for women in STEM and a beloved educator, mentor, and colleague. 
   
   
    
  Her path wasn't easy. Her graduate adviser felt educating women was a waste of time. But Dresselhaus persisted, finding mentors in Nobel Prize–winning physicists Rosalyn Yalow and Enrico Fermi. Eventually, Dresselhaus became one of the first female professors at MIT, where she would spend nearly six decades. Weinstock explores the basics of Dresselhaus's work in carbon nanoscience accessibly and engagingly, describing how she identified key properties of carbon forms, leading to applications that range from lighter, stronger aircraft to more energy-efficient and flexible electronics.

  Paleozoic Era The: The History...

  The current view of science is that Earth is around 4.6 billion years old, and the first 4 billion years of its development are known as the Precambrian period. For the first billion years or so, there was no life in Earth. Then the first single-celled life-forms, early bacteria and algae, began to emerge. It’s unclear where they came from or even if they originated on this planet at all, but this gradual development continued until around four billion years ago when suddenly (in geological terms) more complex forms of life began to emerge.  
  	Scientists call this time of an explosion of new forms of life the Paleozoic Era, and it stretched from around 541 to 250 million years ago. In the oceans and then on land, new creatures and plants began to appear in bewildering variety, and by the end of this period, life on Earth had diversified into a myriad of complex forms that filled virtually every habitat and niche available in the seas and on the planet’s only continent, Pangea. 
  	The Precambrian Period is divided into three eons: the Hadean, the Archaean, and the Proterozoic. One layer of carbon in rocks that date to the Archaean Eon, found on islands west of Greenland, seems to have fossilized tracks that may have been left by some form of organic life, but scientists simply are not certain. The oldest confirmed remains of life date from the same eon and were found in rocks in Western Australia, which were found to contain fossilized bacteria estimated to be 3.46 billion years old. It seems likely that there were thousands, perhaps even millions of forms of life in these early periods, and most seem to have been microscopic in size and very simple in developmental terms.

  The Feynman Lectures on Physics...

  Physics is the study of the fundamental principles that govern the universe. It seeks to understand how the natural world works, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. At its core, physics is about exploring the behavior of matter and energy and how they interact. By uncovering these basic laws of nature, physicists have been able to make incredible advances in technology and our understanding of the universe, transforming how we live and think. 
  The nature and scope of physics are vast. It is divided into several branches, each focusing on different aspects of the physical world. Classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics are just a few examples of the areas of physics that explore different phenomena. Classical mechanics deals with the motion of objects and the forces acting upon them, while electromagnetism studies the behavior of electric and magnetic fields. Thermodynamics focuses on heat and energy transfer, and quantum mechanics explores the behavior of matter and energy at the smallest scales. 
  At its foundation, physics relies on a few core principles, such as the conservation of energy, the principle of least action, and Newton's laws of motion. These principles are fundamental to understanding how objects move, interact, and behave. The law of conservation of energy, for example, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but only transformed from one form to another. Newton’s laws of motion provide the framework for understanding how forces affect the movement of objects. These laws have been used for centuries to explain everything from the motion of falling apples to the launch of rockets into space.

  American Disgust - Racism...

  American Disgust shows how perceptions of disgust and fears of contamination are rooted in the country's history of colonialism and racism. Drawing on colonial, corporate, and medical archives, Matthew J. Wolf-Meyer argues that microbial medicine is closely entwined with changing cultural experiences of digestion, excrement, and disgust that are inextricably tied to the creation of whiteness. 
   
   
   
  Ranging from nineteenth-century colonial encounters with Native people to John Harvey Kellogg's ideas around civilization and bowel movements to mid-twentieth-century diet and parenting advice books, Wolf-Meyer analyzes how embedded racist histories of digestion and disgust permeate contemporary debates around fecal microbial transplants and other bacteriotherapeutic treatments for gastrointestinal disease. 
   
   
   
  At its core, American Disgust wrestles with how changing cultural notions of digestion—what goes into the body and what comes out of it—create and impose racial categories motivated by feelings of disgust rooted in American settler-colonial racism. It shows how disgust is a changing, yet fundamental, aspect of American subjectivity and that engaging with it—personally, politically, and theoretically—opens up possibilities for conceptualizing health at the individual, societal, and planetary levels.
