  Catching cancer early remains the single best way to combat a disease that is the second-leading killer in both the US and worldwide. But the vast majority of resources in the fight against cancer are devoted to relatively ineffective late-stage treatments. Early Detection examines this important anomaly in an accessible and expertly researched survey.In a co-authorship that brings together the passion and urgency of someone touched deeply by the experience of cancer with the knowledge of a skilled science writer, Ratner and Bonislawski narrate compelling case studies across a range of screening programs and different forms of cancer. They look at the science underpinning early detection and discuss the organizational and social challenges of widespread screening, a dimension that has been shown to be especially important in the COVID-19 pandemic. And they call for the government and the medical establishment to provide resources for expanding screening, especially in economically disadvantaged communities that have traditionally been underserved.

  Echoes of the Cosmos - Tracing...

  The universe is vast, filled with mysteries that challenge our understanding of reality. Among these, dark matter stands out as one of the most elusive and significant components of the cosmos. It is an invisible force that cannot be seen directly, yet it exerts a profound influence on the structure and behavior of galaxies, stars, and the universe as a whole. This chapter delves into the concept of dark matter, exploring its nature, how it was first theorized, and why it remains one of the most intriguing puzzles in modern physics and astronomy. 
  Dark matter was first proposed as a solution to an anomaly in the way galaxies rotate. In the 1930s, astronomer Fritz Zwicky observed that galaxies in the Coma Cluster were moving much faster than expected, based on the visible matter in those galaxies. He suggested the existence of an unseen mass, which he called "dark matter," to account for the gravitational pull that would explain these high speeds. This groundbreaking idea, however, was met with skepticism at the time. Over the decades that followed, evidence continued to accumulate, pointing to the presence of dark matter in the universe. 
  Dark matter is not something we can detect with traditional instruments because it does not emit, absorb, or reflect light. It is essentially invisible to electromagnetic radiation, which makes it very different from the ordinary matter that makes up stars, planets, and everything we can see in the universe. Despite its invisibility, dark matter’s presence is inferred through its gravitational effects on visible matter. For example, when we observe the rotation of galaxies, the stars at the outer edges are moving faster than they should, based on the amount of visible matter in the galaxy. This suggests that there is additional mass, unseen but detectable through its gravitational pull, holding these galaxies together.

  Apes on the Edge - Chimpanzee...

  A moving story of survival and an eye-opening introduction to an extraordinary community of chimps and people. Fongoli chimpanzees are unique for many reasons. Their female hunters are the only apes that regularly hunt with tools, seeking out tiny bush babies with wooden spears. Unlike most other chimps, these apes fear neither water nor fire, using shallow pools to cool off in the Senegalese heat. Up to 90 percent of their home range burns annually—the result of human hunting or clearing for gold mining—and Fongoli chimpanzees have learned to predict the movement of such fires and to avoid them. The study of Fongoli chimps is also unique. While most primate research occurs in isolated reserves, Fongoli chimpanzees live alongside humans, and as primatologist and anthropologist Jill Pruetz reports, this shared habitat creates both challenges and opportunities. The issues faced by Fongoli chimpanzees—particularly food scarcity and environmental degradation—are also issues faced by their human neighbors. This connection is one reason Pruetz, who has studied Fongoli apes for over two decades, created the nonprofit Neighbor Ape in 2008 to provide for the welfare of the humans who share their landscape with apes. It is also why Pruetz decided to write this book, the first to offer readers a view of these chimps’ lives and to explain the specific conservation efforts needed to help them. Incorporating stories from Pruetz’s time in the field, including the compelling rescue of a young chimp from poachers, Apes on the Edge opens a fascinating window into primate research, conservation, and the inner workings of a very special population of our closest nonhuman relatives.
