Sinopsis

Ancient Tribal Calendars explores the sophisticated timekeeping methods of indigenous cultures, revealing their profound astronomical knowledge. These ancient civilizations, despite lacking modern technology, developed intricate calendars to predict seasonal changes and align their lives with nature’s rhythms. For example, the Mayan calendar showcases a complex understanding of celestial movements, while Aboriginal Australians used seasonal markers for navigation and resource management. These systems were not merely timekeeping devices; they were holistic integrations of astronomy, mathematics, and cultural practices crucial for societal survival. The book delves into the astronomical observations, socio-cultural roles, and mathematical principles behind these calendars. Moving beyond a purely scientific approach, the book contextualizes these calendars within specific cultural and environmental circumstances. The book progresses by first introducing fundamental astronomical principles, then exploring case studies like the Mayan calendar and Native American lunar calendars, and finally analyzing the mathematical underpinnings. By examining archaeological findings and ethnographical accounts, Ancient Tribal Calendars challenges Eurocentric views of scientific history and offers valuable lessons for sustainable living.

    A Practical Guide To Modern...

    I know of no gamekeepers who are not countrymen to their fingertips.  They observe, they consider, they cherish and they do more than most to look after out woodlands and hedgerows, our moorlands and fens.  Theirs is not an easy job, out in all weathers and misunderstood by many townies who are further removed from the countryside and its workings than they have ever been, thanks to increasing technology which keeps them housebound.  They need never go out if they so choose, remaining glued to the screen of a mobile phone, a computer or a television. But those who do realise that the intervention of man need not always be irresponsible and thoughtless can see just what benefits can accrue from the wise management of our natural resources, and Jeremy Hobson does much in this book to apprise us all of the modern approach to keepering, from raising birds and habitat management to choosing coats and boots and training dogs. It is all here, and a fascinating read it is; both for those in the know and those who are curious to learn all about it.

    WITH A FOREWORD BY SIDDHARTHA MUKHERJEE A renowned cardiologist and Harvard professor spells out the future digital shift of medicine — and how it will impact the lives not only of patients and health care professionals but of all humans. Future care is virtual care: sensor-aided, digitally enabled, and powered by predictive analytics. Like most facets of modern life, human organs, too, are being digitally monitored. Sensors are well on their way to helping us proactively capture the information needed to predict and prevent disease. Paired with the medical world’s growing emphasis on wellness and prevention, the digital revolution will help us effectively monitor and address the chronic diseases that have been the Achilles’ heel of the health care system to date. This large-scale transition is not only going to reshape the patient-physician relationship but also dramatically change how hospitals and the business of medicine operate. Dr. Singh explores the upswell of virtual care, the evolving role of sensors, and the impact of artificial intelligence in medicine and health care through cutting-edge science, big idea projections, and patient stories. Using anecdotes from his own COVID-19 illness and medical practice, Dr. Singh shows that the success of the digital revolution in medicine is dependent on our ability to understand and adapt to this changing landscape. Future Care provides fascinating insights into how health care can become sensible, affordable, and practical and why everyone needs to become a part of the solution. It is an important and timely contribution to the ongoing and increasingly urgent conversation about medicine, technology, and health care.
