  Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye. It is essential for the process of vision and plays a crucial role in our understanding of the universe. The study of light, known as optics, explores how light behaves, interacts with matter, and is perceived by the human eye. Color, on the other hand, is the result of how light interacts with objects and is perceived by the brain. The interaction between light and matter can produce a wide range of effects, such as reflection, refraction, and dispersion, which give rise to the rich variety of colors we see in the world around us. 
  The nature of light can be understood through both particle and wave theories. In the early 20th century, scientists realized that light behaves not only as a wave but also as a particle. This wave-particle duality is one of the key concepts of quantum mechanics, where light exhibits both wave-like properties, such as interference and diffraction, and particle-like properties, such as when it is absorbed or emitted in discrete packets called photons. These photons carry energy and momentum, and their interactions with matter give rise to various phenomena that are central to the physics of light.

  Mathematical Biology - A Very...

  Why are English Premier League football shirt patterns very similar to animal coat markings? And what do invasive species have in common with cancer cells in the body? Mathematical biology develops models which answer these questions, as they are applied to processes from the spread of a gene in a population, to predator-prey dynamics in an ecosystem, to the growth of tumors.In this Very Short Introduction Philip K. Maini describes the art of modeling, what it is, why we do it, and illustrates how the abstract way of thinking that is the essence of mathematics enables us to transfer knowledge from one area of research to another. Using numerous examples, he explains how the same fundamental ideas have been used in different fields, and shows how mathematics is the language of science. The author also points to cases in science where the traditional scientific modelling approach—verbal reasoning—is incorrect and shows how mathematics can uncover, and correct, such flawed reasoning while, at the same time, enhance our intuition. This book provides a guide to the trajectory of mathematical biology from a niche subject in the 1970s to a well-established, popular subject that is truly inter-disciplinary, and points to exciting future challenges.

  Journal of a Black Queer Nurse

  In this searing, honest memoir, a Black queer emergency-room nurse works the front lines of care during COVID-19. 
   
   
   
  Britney Daniels is a Black, masculine-presenting, tattooed lesbian from a working-class background. For the last five years, she has been working as an emergency-room nurse. She began Journal of a Black Queer Nurse as a personal diary, a tool to heal from the day-to-day traumas of seeing too much and caring too much. 
   
   
   
  Hilarious, gut-wrenching, and infuriating by turns, these stories are told from the perspective of a deeply empathetic, no-nonsense young nurse, who highlights the way race, inequality, and a profit-driven healthcare system make the hospital a place where systemic racism is lived. 
   
   
   
  Whether it is giving one's own clothes to a homeless patient, sticking up for patients of color in the face of indifference from white doctors and nurses, or nursing one's own back pain accrued from transporting too many bodies, Journal of a Black Queer Nurse reveals the ways in which care is much more than treating a physical body and how the commitment to real care—care that involves listening to and understanding patients in a deeper sense—demands nurses, especially nurses of color, must also be warriors.
