  Koalas regularly appeared in Australian biologist Danielle Clode's backyard, but it was only when a bushfire threatened that she truly paid them attention. 
   
   
   
  In vivid, descriptive prose, Clode embarks on a delightful and surprising journey through evolutionary biology, natural history, and ecology to understand where these enigmatic animals came from and what their future may hold. She begins her search with the fossils of ancient giant koalas, delving into why the modern koala has become the lone survivor of a once-diverse family of uniquely Australian marsupials. 
   
   
   
  Koala investigates the remarkable physiology of these charismatic creatures. Clode explores the complex relationship and unexpected connections between this endearing species and humans. She explains how koalas are simultaneously threatened with extinction in some areas due to disease, climate change, and increasing wildfires, while overpopulating forests in other parts of the country. 
   
   
   
  Deeply researched and filled with wonder, Koala is both a tender and inquisitive paean to a species unlike any other and a call to ensure its survival.

  The Present Illness - American...

  Health care reform efforts are difficult to achieve and have been historically undermined by their narrow scope. In The Present Illness, Martin F. Shapiro, MD, PhD, MPH, weaves together history, sociology, extensive research, and his own experiences as a physician to explore the broad range of afflictions impairing US health care and explains why we won't be able to fix the system without making significant changes across society. With a sharp eye and ready humor, Shapiro dissects the ways all groups participating—clinicians and their organizations, medical schools and their faculty, hospitals and clinical corporations, scientists and the National Institutes of Health, insurers and manufacturers, governments and their policies, and also patients and the public—shape and reinforce a dysfunctional system. Shapiro identifies three major problems stymieing reform: commodification of care; values, expectations, unmet needs, attitudes, and personal limitations of participants; and toxic relationships and communication among these groups.Shapiro lays out a sweeping agenda of concrete actions to address the many factors contributing to the system's failings. Highlighting the interconnectedness of both the problems and potential solutions, he warns that piecemeal reform efforts will continue to be undermined by those who believe they have something to gain from the status quo. Although overhauling our health care system is daunting, Shapiro nonetheless concludes that we must push forward with a far more comprehensive effort in all sectors of health care and throughout society to create a system that is humane, effective, and just.

  Every year, the announcement of profits by oil companies, especially Total, provokes reactions of admiration or indignation from French observers, experts and politicians. But what are these figures hiding? Thomas Porcher reveals eight scandalous practices by the gasoline giants.

  The human eye is one of the most complex and vital organs in the body, enabling individuals to perceive the world in vivid detail. Sight is not only a primary means of experiencing life but also a crucial factor in overall well-being. Despite its importance, eye health is often overlooked until vision problems arise. Many common eye conditions develop gradually, making early detection and preventive care essential. Understanding the significance of eye health is the first step toward maintaining clear vision and preventing long-term complications. 
  One of the most critical reasons for prioritizing eye health is the role of vision in daily life. From reading and driving to recognizing faces and navigating environments, sight influences nearly every aspect of human activity. Poor vision can significantly impact quality of life, leading to difficulties in education, work, and social interactions. Children with undiagnosed vision problems may struggle in school, while adults with deteriorating eyesight can experience reduced productivity and increased dependence on others. Addressing eye health early helps ensure that vision remains strong and functional throughout life.
