On the mode of communication of cholera

John Snow

Casa editrice: Good Press

Sinossi

In 'On the Mode of Communication of Cholera,' John Snow presents a groundbreaking exploration of the causes and transmission of cholera within the context of 19th-century London. Merging meticulous empirical research with innovative epidemiological methods, Snow challenges prevailing miasma theories and advocates for a waterborne model of disease transmission. His rigorous investigation, including detailed maps of cholera outbreaks, exemplifies a methodological shift towards data-driven science in the public health discourse of his time, establishing a foundational text for future epidemiological studies. John Snow, often regarded as the father of modern epidemiology, was influenced by his background in medicine and his early work in anesthesia. His experiences during cholera outbreaks, where he witnessed the devastating impact of the disease on impoverished communities, propelled him to challenge the existing medical paradigms. Driven by a commitment to improve public health, Snow's passion for rigorous scientific inquiry fosters a narrative that is both personal and universally relevant, linking his professional journey to his quest for understanding a public health crisis. This compelling work is essential for anyone interested in the history of medicine, public health, or the evolution of scientific thought. Snow's insights not only provide a fascinating glimpse into the socio-medical landscape of his time but also resonate with contemporary discussions on how environmental factors influence health outcomes. Readers will find themselves inspired by Snow's investigative spirit and the relevance of his findings in today's public health challenges.

Beyond Vibe Coding - From Coder...

Addy Osmani

AI is transforming software development, shifting programmers from writing code to collaborating with AI in an intent-driven workflow. Vibe coding—a prompt-first, exploratory approach where you describe what you want in natural language and let a large language model fill in the blanks—represents a radical shift in the developer's role from writing code to directing it. However, vibe coding comes with a serious caveat: Like a high-speed exploratory vehicle, it can take you off the beaten path quickly. Beyond Vibe Coding: From Coder to AI-Era Developer explores how AI-powered coding assistants like GitHub Copilot and OpenAI Codex are reshaping the way we build software, from automating routine coding tasks to influencing architecture and design decisions. 
 
Written by Addy Osmani, this guide provides developers, tech leads, and organizations with practical strategies to integrate AI into their workflows effectively. Learn how to formulate clear goals and constraints for the AI, review AI-generated code critically, and integrate those pieces into a coherent whole. Whether you're adopting AI tools today or preparing for the future of software engineering, this book offers insights and hands-on examples to keep your skills sharp in this evolving landscape.
