The healing power of the sun -...

Julio Ribes

¿Y si todo lo que hemos creído sobre el sol y la salud está mal?
Durante años, nos han enseñado a temer al sol, a protegernos de sus rayos y a evitar la exposición. Sin embargo, investigaciones recientes están desafiando esta narrativa, revelando que la luz solar, lejos de ser un enemigo, puede ser un poderoso aliado para nuestra salud.
En este esclarecedor libro, el autor examina rigurosamente los últimos estudios científicos sobre la exposición solar y su impacto en el cuerpo humano. A lo largo de sus páginas, se desmontan mitos profundamente arraigados y se destacan los beneficios de una adecuada exposición solar para la salud inmunológica, cardiovascular y emocional. Se exploran a fondo temas clave como la producción de vitamina D, la regulación del ritmo circadiano y el papel esencial de la melatonina y la melanina en la prevención de enfermedades.
El texto profundiza en las controversias que rodean el uso de protectores solares, el aumento de los casos de osteoporosis, los efectos nocivos de la luz artificial y la relación entre la exposición al sol y ciertos tipos de cáncer, todo ello basado en estudios de alta calidad y metaanálisis recientes.
Este volumen forma parte de una serie de cinco libros dedicados a los pilares fundamentales de la salud: la luz solar, el ayuno intermitente, los hábitos tóxicos modernos, la glucosa y los biorritmos. Una serie científica, clara y transformadora basada en la evidencia más contundente de los últimos años.

Planting Our World

Stefano Mancuso

It all begins and ends with plants. From the chance to live on this planet to the pleasure of listening to the sound of a violin—every story begins with a plant. 
 
 
 
We animals account for a paltry 0.3% of the planet's biomass while plants add up to 85%. It is obvious that every story on this planet has a plant as its protagonist. Our world is a green world; Earth is the planet of plants. And when, with just a little training, we are able to look at the world without seeing it solely as humanity's playground, we cannot help but notice the ubiquity of plants. They are everywhere and their stories are inevitably wound up with ours. Not to see this plan, or even worse, to ignore its existence, is one of the most serious threats to the survival of our species. 
 
 
 
Neurobiologist Stefano Mancuso is back with a book to tell us about the greenprint of our world. He does it through unforgettable stories starring plants; stories combining an inimitable narrative style and remarkable scientific rigor. From the story of the red spruce that gave Stradivarius the wood for his fourteen violins, to the Kauri tree stump, kept alive for decades by the interconnected root system of nearby trees. From the story of the slipperiness of the banana skin to the plant that solved the "crime of the century," the Lindbergh kidnapping, by way of wooden ladder rungs.

Bacteria - A Very Short...

Sebastian Amyes

Bacteria form a fundamental branch of life. They are the oldest forms of life and the most prolific of all living organisms, inhabiting every part of the Earth's surface, its ocean depths, and even such inhospitable places as boiling hot springs. In this Very Short Introduction, bacteriologist Sebastian Amyes explores the nature of bacteria, their origin and evolution, bacteria in the environment, and bacteria and disease. Amyes discusses some of the major infections caused by bacteria-bacteria causes pneumonia, diphtheria, cholera, and many other diseases-and shows how these pathogens avoid the defenses of the human body. But the book looks at all aspects of bacteria, not just the negative side, stressing the key benefits of bacteria, which have been harnessed to preserve food, dispose of waste and to provide compost for horticulture. Indeed, life for man and for many animals would be impossible without bacteria. Amyes also offers a glance into the future, describing how bacteria might be manipulated to perform tasks that they previous were unable to perform and discussing the recent construction of a completely synthetic bacterial cell.

Digital Design - Principles and...

Craig Dames

Digital design is an essential field that shapes the way we interact with technology today. It refers to the process of creating visual content and interfaces using digital tools. With the rapid advancement of technology, digital design has become an integral part of various industries, from web development and mobile applications to graphic design and user experience (UX) design. Understanding the foundations of digital design is crucial for anyone who aims to create meaningful and engaging digital experiences.
The evolution of digital design tools has greatly impacted the profession. In the early days of digital design, tools like Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator were primarily used for static designs, such as graphics and layouts. However, with the rise of user-centered design principles and the need for interactivity, new tools have emerged. Programs such as Sketch, Figma, and Adobe XD are now widely used for UI/UX design, providing designers with the capability to create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs in collaborative environments. These tools allow designers to visualize their concepts in real-time and ensure that the final product meets the users' needs and expectations.
One of the most important aspects of digital design is its impact on modern technology. From the moment a user opens a website or app, they interact with a design that was carefully crafted to create a seamless and engaging experience. Digital design plays a significant role in influencing how users perceive and navigate through digital spaces. Good design enhances usability, encourages interaction, and helps users accomplish their goals efficiently. Poor design, on the other hand, can frustrate users and drive them away, making it crucial for designers to understand both the aesthetic and functional aspects of their work.
