In 1961 John F. Kennedy pledged to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade. Nine years later, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon. Ten years later, Richard Nixon echoed this pledge by declaring a "war" on cancer. More than thirty years later, however, cancer remains one of the largest causes of death worldwide, with around one in three developing the disease. Curing cancer is not "rocket science," but the question is, why has cancer proved to be harder to tackle than the moon landings turned out to be? Cancer research is a major economic activity. There are constant improvements in treatment techniques that result in better cure rates and increased quality and quantity of life for those with the disease, yet stories of breakthroughs in a cure for cancer are often in the media. In this Very Short Introduction Nick James, founder of the CancerHelp UK website, examines the trends in diagnosis and treatment of the disease, as well as its economic consequences. Asking what cancer is and what causes it, he considers issues surrounding expensive drug development, what can be done to reduce the risk of developing cancer, and the use of complementary and alternative therapies.Ver livro

Urbanization has been one of the most significant trends of the 21st century, with more than half of the world's population now living in cities. As global populations continue to grow, an increasing number of people are flocking to urban areas, resulting in the development of some of the most densely populated cities on Earth. These megacities, home to millions of individuals, represent both the wonders and the challenges of modern life. The intensity of life in such crowded spaces shapes the experiences of those who live there, from the social fabric to the environment. This book explores the experiences of individuals living in the most crowded urban centers, where the pressure of population density influences every aspect of daily life. It aims to examine how these cities manage their growth, deal with the challenges of overcrowding, and provide a glimpse into the lives of those navigating these spaces. The urban centers featured in this book are marked not only by their size but also by the vibrancy and diversity they house. Yet, despite the potential for economic growth and cultural exchange, these cities face significant struggles related to infrastructure, health, safety, and quality of life. The history of urban density is also a fascinating tale of human resilience and innovation. From the early days of civilization to the present, cities have been shaped by their environments, political systems, and technological advancements. As cities grow ever more populous, the boundaries of what can be managed are constantly tested, leading to new solutions, as well as failures. The story of overcrowding is not just one of increasing numbers but also of the social, economic, and environmental impacts that come with it.Ver livro
We have most of the technology we need to combat the climate crisis – and most people want to see more action. But after three decades of climate COPs, our global emissions are worse than ever. And we are accelerating into a Polycrisis of climate, food security, biodiversity, pollution, inequality and more. What, exactly, has been holding us back? What will it take for us to do better? In the search for answers that have been so elusive to date, Mike Berners-Lee looks at the challenge from new angles. He stands further back to gain perspective; he digs deeper under the surface to see the root causes; he joins up every element of the challenge; and he learns lessons from our failures of the past. He uses all these insights to identify the single point of greatest leverage for those seeking the systemic change we so desperately need. A Climate of Truth spells out why, if humanity is to thrive in the decades ahead, the most critical step is to raise standards of honesty in our politics, our media and our businesses. Not only is this possible, but each of us can have radically more impact on the issues we care about by turning our attention to this simple principle. Anyone asking, ‘What can each of us do right now to help?’ will find inspiration in this practical and important book.Ver livro
