Summary

"Yellow Fever" offers a comprehensive exploration of this dangerous infectious disease, relevant for public health professionals, travelers, and anyone interested in viral diseases. The book examines the disease's transmission via the Aedes mosquito, its pathogenesis leading to organ failure, and crucial strategies for disease prevention through vaccination and mosquito control. Readers will gain insight into the historical impact of yellow fever, including its devastating effects during the Panama Canal construction, and understand why, despite advancements, it remains a significant public health challenge, especially in Africa and South America.

 
The book progresses systematically, starting with the history of yellow fever and the breakthroughs in identifying the virus. It then delves into the virology, exploring the virus's structure, replication, and the pathogenesis of the disease, including the progression from flu-like symptoms to jaundice and hemorrhage.

 
Finally, it addresses strategies for prevention, thoroughly examining the yellow fever vaccine and mosquito control measures, emphasizing the importance of surveillance and early detection. Drawing on scientific studies, WHO and CDC reports, the book adopts a practical approach, translating complex scientific knowledge into actionable public health interventions.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Every person yearns to become a professional figure as he grows up. As children, we dream of being different figures, police officers, firefighters, soldiers, driving ships, planes, large trucks, and all kinds of jobs that take us to adventure. That is precisely what we are looking for, the adventure of living experiences. 
    	Being an airplane pilot is one of the main dreams that often surround children, dreams that perhaps, with the course of childhood, are transformed into different professions, or perhaps a dream that pursues us until adolescence, where we already at a higher degree of professional consciousness we decided to become airplane pilots. 
    	In this wonderful work, I will teach you everything you need to learn to become an airplane pilot, without taking "false steps", walking the right path, and doing everything you need to do to achieve it. 
    	It is not an aeronautical technical book, but a guide that will help you discover your career, navigate it, and know the right way to become a successful professional pilot.

    Rebel - My Escape from Saudi...

    A gripping memoir of bravery and sacrifice by a young woman whose escape from her abusive family and an oppressive culture in Saudi Arabia captivated the world 
     In early 2019, after three years of careful planning, Rahaf Mohammed finally escaped her abusive family in Saudi Arabia—but made it only to Bangkok before being stripped of her passport. If forced to return home, she was sure she would be killed, like other rebel women in her country. As men pounded at the door of her barricaded hotel room, she opened a Twitter account. The teenager reached out to the world, and the world answered—she gained 45,000 followers in one day, and those followers helped her seek asylum in the West. 
    Now Rahaf Mohammed tells her remarkable story in her own words, revealing untold truths about life in the closed kingdom, where young women are brought up in a repressive system that puts them under the legal control of a male guardian. Raised with immense financial privilege but under the control of her male relatives—including her high-profile politician father—she endured an abusive childhood in which oppression and deceit were the norm. 
    Moving from Rahaf’s early days on the underground online network of Saudi runaways, who use coded entries to learn how to flee the brutalities of their homeland, to her solo escape to Canada, Rebel is a breathtaking and life-affirming memoir about one woman’s tenacious pursuit of freedom.

  • Nature's Echo - Harnessing Ancient Feedback Loops to Heal a Changing Planet - cover

    Nature's Echo - Harnessing...

    Whether restoring trees, conserving existing ecosystems, rewilding native animals, or changing incentives to elicit better choices, targeted interventions can tap into feedback loops that can improve our planet, our economy, and our lives.  
    A feedback loop occurs when the outcome of a process restarts that process, creating a cyclical chain of cause and effect. Feedback loops can either maintain the status quo (a negative feedback loop), or they can create a “snowball effect” (a positive feedback loop) where more begets more. These feedback loops have been with us since the beginning of time, and they are implicit in the formation of everything that exists in the universe. Physical feedback loops literally form our physical reality around us, but psychological feedback loops determine how we build our perspective of reality. 
    In 2019, The Crowther Lab, which Tom Crowther runs at ETH Zurich, a leading Swiss public research university, published a study in the journal Science on the Earth’s carrying capacity for trees. Using satellite imagery, massive datasets compiled from thousands of studies, and computer models, they evaluated where trees could naturally grow on Earth. They estimated that the planet had room for an additional one trillion trees on land not currently in use by humans for farming or settlement – land that was once forest. And the model predicted that those recovering forests would capture one third of all human carbon emissions since the industrial revolution.  Yet, lost in that initial discussion was the inclusion of the importance of biodiversity and care to ensure the reforestation efforts meant building millions of local feedback loops, where local people and nature thrive together. It meant millions of local communities, indigenous populations, farmers, and foresters working with nature to recreate whole, healthy, stable ecosystems as biodiverse as the ones we’ve lost. 
    In Nature’s Echo, Crowther explains the powerful force of feedback loops in nature and how, at the moment, our planet is experiencing a series of positive feedback loops as we hurtle towards environmental collapse. These feedback loops are too powerful to fight against. However, his research consistently shows that, instead of fighting feedback loops, we can harness their potential to create spectacular, worthwhile change. We can use feedback loops to help the Earth heal itself.
