"TV unleashes the imagination and feeds intelligence." • "A child deprived of TV risks social isolation." • "TV dumbs you down." • "TV makes you obese." It seems that everything—and its opposite—has already been said about TV. But what is it really? How can we distinguish between the radical "No TV" of some and the supposedly entertaining virtues touted by others? Michel Desmurget, a doctor in neuroscience, has sifted through and synthesized thousands of research articles published over the last fifty years in the most rigorous international journals. The conclusion is unequivocal—we must stop watching television for good, whatever the program. All content, even that meant to teach, can never come close to any other learning method. The data is clear—television viewing is detrimental to school performance. For a child in elementary school, for example, every hour spent daily watching television increases the likelihood that he or she will one day leave the school system without any qualifications. For specialists, there is no doubt that television has a negative influence, not only on intellectual development but also on behavior. Thus, certain eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia) are related to a frantic consumption of—television programs! In short, watching television has an impact on our life expectancy. However, the harmful impact of this risk is largely underestimated, because of the large sector of the public exposed to television (more than 85% of Western households have at least one television set), and because of a debate on the subject that has become inaudible and confused. Moreover, the results of the research initiated by the big media groups on the subject remain "proprietary," i.e., closed to the general public. Believing that we is facing a real public health problem, Michel Desmurget wants to act as a responsible scientist—with a clear, concise and rigorously referenced book, the message cannot go unnoticed. Michel Desmurget is a doctor of neuropsychology. He attended several major American universities (MIT, Emory, UCSF) and is now a research director at INSERM in cognitive neuroscience. He is particularly interested in the problems of brain organization and plasticity. He is the author of the book TV Lobotomy (Max Milo, 2022), which is based in part on his personal history. Exasperated by having to constantly justify the choice not to have television at home—and to prevent his children from having access to it—and not to be seen as a sociopath in the eyes of those around him, he has done a massive job to argue his point. This audiobook is read by a synthesized voice.Mostra libro

Urban renewal is a dynamic process aimed at rejuvenating and revitalizing urban areas that have fallen into disrepair or underutilization. It typically focuses on transforming old, decaying neighborhoods into vibrant, economically viable spaces. This concept, which has evolved over centuries, seeks to improve the quality of life for residents by addressing the physical, social, and economic issues within a community. Urban renewal is not just about physical transformation; it also serves as a tool to foster social and economic progress in cities. It represents a vision of growth and development, where cities evolve in response to changing needs, improving infrastructure, housing, and public amenities. The roots of urban renewal trace back to the early industrial revolution when cities began to experience rapid growth, creating overcrowded, unsanitary, and often unsafe living conditions. As populations swelled and cities expanded, poor housing, inadequate infrastructure, and environmental degradation became major issues. In response, urban planners and policymakers introduced initiatives aimed at reshaping cities. Early efforts to address these challenges were often driven by large-scale demolitions and redevelopment, aiming to modernize the urban landscape and provide more organized, planned environments. Urban renewal has, over time, become an essential strategy for tackling issues such as blight, poverty, and crime in urban areas. The mid-20th century saw the rise of large federal and municipal programs dedicated to rebuilding cities. These projects included the demolition of old buildings, the construction of new housing complexes, and the development of public spaces and infrastructure. However, these initiatives were often met with mixed results. While some neighborhoods flourished, others experienced the negative effects of gentrification, displacing long-standing residents and altering the community's fabric.Mostra libro
Hematology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study of blood, blood-forming organs, and blood disorders. It is a vital field of medicine as blood is essential for the proper functioning of the body. Hematology encompasses a range of topics, including the composition of blood, the process of blood formation, the various types of blood cells, and the disorders that affect the blood. It plays a crucial role in diagnosing and treating a variety of conditions such as anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, bleeding disorders, and blood clotting issues. The primary function of blood is to transport essential nutrients, gases, and waste products throughout the body. Blood also plays a key role in regulating temperature, maintaining pH balance, and defending the body against infections. Blood is composed of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, each having a unique function that is integral to overall health. Plasma is the liquid component, primarily made of water, proteins, and dissolved substances, and serves as the medium for carrying cells and other components. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the tissues and return carbon dioxide back to the lungs for exhalation. White blood cells are crucial for immune defense, protecting the body against pathogens, while platelets are involved in clotting to prevent excessive bleeding. The study of hematology is essential because various blood disorders can lead to severe health complications. Disorders such as anemia can result from deficiencies in red blood cells or hemoglobin, leading to fatigue, weakness, and other symptoms. Leukemia, a type of cancer affecting the white blood cells, and lymphoma, which affects the lymphatic system, are also common blood-related cancers that require specialized treatment.Mostra libro
