Sinopse

Formaldehyde Hides Within investigates the hidden dangers of formaldehyde and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives found in common household detergents. It sheds light on the potential health risks, from skin irritation to more serious respiratory issues and cancers, linked to exposure to these chemicals. The book emphasizes that many consumers are unaware of formaldehyde's presence in everyday products, despite its potential health consequences, and that current regulations may not adequately protect the public.

 
The book progresses systematically, starting with an explanation of formaldehyde's properties and presence in detergents. It then delves into the toxicology, examining how formaldehyde can cause cellular damage. Independent lab findings are reviewed, and the book culminates with a call for policy changes, greater transparency in product labeling, and consumer empowerment. This approach empowers readers to make informed choices about the products they use and to advocate for safer alternatives in the interest of public health.

 
The value of Formaldehyde Hides Within lies in its comprehensive approach, combining scientific analysis with practical advice and policy recommendations. It serves as a bridge between scientific research and everyday life, making complex information accessible to a broad audience concerned about their health and the safety of their environment, while referencing data from organizations such as the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the National Toxicology Program (NTP) to support its claims.

    The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
     
     
     
    Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
     
     
     
    Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.

    The Shaking Woman or A History...

    While speaking at a memorial event in 2006, Siri Hustvedt suffered a violent seizure from the neck down. Despite her flapping arms and shaking legs, she continued to speak clearly and was able to finish her speech. It was as if she had suddenly become two people: a calm orator and a shuddering wreck. Then the seizures happened again and again. The Shaking Woman tracks Hustvedt's search for a diagnosis, one that takes her inside the thought processes of several scientific disciplines, each one of which offers a distinct perspective on her paroxysms but no ready solution. In the process, she finds herself entangled in fundamental questions: What is the relationship between brain and mind? How do we remember? What is the self? 
     
     
     
    During her investigations, Hustvedt joins a discussion group in which neurologists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and brain scientists trade ideas to develop a new field: neuropsychoanalysis. She volunteers as a writing teacher for psychiatric in-patients at the Payne Whitney clinic in New York City and unearths precedents in medical history that illuminate the origins of and shifts in our theories about the mind-body problem. Hustvedt synthesizes her experience and research into a compelling mystery: Who is the shaking woman? In the end, the story she tells becomes, in the words of George Makari, "a brilliant illumination for us all."
