Synopsis

Jellyfish Light Sensitivity explores how jellyfish, creatures lacking eyes, perceive light. The book investigates the cellular and molecular mechanisms behind this unique ability, highlighting its evolutionary significance using a combination of laboratory studies, field observations, and genomic analyses.

 
Intriguingly, jellyfish possess photoreceptor cells throughout their bodies, enabling light detection crucial for survival behaviors like vertical migration—moving up or down in the water column—and predator avoidance.

 
The book progresses logically, starting with jellyfish diversity and ecological roles, then delving into cellular and molecular components of light detection, including photoreceptor proteins and neural pathways. It integrates molecular biology with behavioral ecology, offering a holistic view.

 
Understanding how jellyfish detect light may inspire novel light-sensing technologies, such as artificial photoreceptor systems.

Key to the City - How Zoning...

Sara C. Bronin

In Key to the City, legal scholar and architect Sara C. Bronin examines how zoning became such a prevailing force and reveals its impact—and its potential for good. Outdated zoning codes have maintained racial segregation, prioritized cars over people, and enabled great ecological harm. But, as Bronin argues, once we recognize the power of zoning, we can harness it to create the communities we desire, and deserve. Drawing on her own experience leading the overhaul of Hartford's zoning code and exploring the efforts of activists and city planners across the country, Bronin shows how new codes are reshaping our cities—from Baltimore to Chicago, Las Vegas to Minneapolis, and beyond. In Boston, a law fought for by a passionate group of organizers, farmers, and beekeepers is transforming the city into a haven for urban farming. In Tucson, zoning codes are mitigating the impacts of climate change and drought-proofing neighborhoods in peril. In Delray Beach, Florida, a new code aims to capture and maintain the town's colorful spirit through its architecture. 
 
 
 
With clarity and insight, Bronin demystifies the power of an inscrutable organizing force in our lives and invites us to see zoning as a revolutionary vehicle for change. In Key to the City, she puts forward a practical and energizing vision for how we can reimagine our communities.
