Sinopse

Brief Sunshine Boost explores the transformative power of short, daily sunlight exposure, blending biology and wellness to reveal how modest doses of sunshine enhance physical and mental health. At its core, the book tackles two key processes: vitamin D synthesis, crucial for immune function and bone strength, and sunlight’s role in mood regulation through serotonin production and melatonin balance. It challenges modern indoor lifestyles by highlighting startling trends—like widespread vitamin D deficiencies linked to depression and osteoporosis—and critiques overly cautious sun-avoidance guidelines. By presenting sunlight as a free, accessible health tool, the book offers a fresh perspective for those navigating seasonal affective disorder, sedentary habits, or concerns about UV risks.

 
The book stands out by merging rigorous science with practical advice. Chapters progress from humanity’s evolutionary bond with sunlight to actionable strategies, such as timing outdoor sessions based on skin type and local UV levels. It cites studies showing how even 10 minutes of midday sun can boost serotonin levels as effectively as some antidepressants, while debunking myths about sunscreen (e.g., using mineral-based options after brief unprotected exposure). Unique insights include Scandinavia’s light therapy innovations and the concept of sun snacks—short outdoor breaks to sharpen focus. Written in clear, relatable language, Brief Sunshine Boost empowers readers to personalize their sun habits, balancing modern health risks with timeless biological needs.

    The story of life on a French olive farm continues with this moving memoir of hard work, hard luck, and waiting for the return of happiness. Carol Drinkwater and her husband, Michel, arrive at their villa in Provence in anticipation of another glorious summer. Unfortunately, they find the farm unkempt and suffering from lack of rainfall. When their gardener, Monsieur Quashia, finally shows up, he cheerfully explains the shed-building project he’s working on as a surprise for them—a surprise that will send their expenses skyrocketing. But there are bigger problems to come than wild boars tearing through fences and other everyday challenges of farming. After a terrifying accident in Monte Carlo and a hospital stay, Michel is barely functional, and Carol soon realizes she must fend for herself. Burdened with problems from a financial reversal to the threat of nearby wildfires, she will experience firsthand the uncertainties that have plagued farmers since the dawn of agriculture—and hold on to hope that in the end, nature will provide. “A storyteller of great economy and deftness.” —The Telegraph

    Dermatology is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of skin, hair, and nail disorders. It plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health, as the skin is the body’s largest organ and serves as a protective barrier against environmental factors. Dermatologists are trained to treat a wide variety of conditions, ranging from common skin issues like acne and eczema to life-threatening diseases such as melanoma. 
    The importance of skin health cannot be overstated. Skin diseases can affect an individual’s quality of life, often causing physical discomfort, emotional distress, and social stigma. Early detection and treatment are vital to prevent complications and improve outcomes. Dermatology is not only about managing diseases but also about enhancing cosmetic appearance and improving skin function, contributing to patients' self-esteem and overall well-being. 
    Skin functions as the first line of defense against external factors such as bacteria, viruses, pollutants, and harmful UV radiation. It also plays a role in regulating body temperature, preventing dehydration, and producing vitamin D. Understanding the skin’s structure and functions is fundamental to diagnosing and treating dermatologic conditions. The skin is composed of three primary layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. The epidermis serves as the outermost layer, providing a waterproof barrier and containing melanocytes responsible for skin pigmentation. Beneath it lies the dermis, which houses blood vessels, hair follicles, sweat glands, and nerve endings, playing a crucial role in sensation and temperature regulation. The deepest layer, the subcutaneous tissue, contains fat and connective tissue that insulate and protect internal organs.

    How do artificial neural networks and other forms of artificial intelligence interfere with methods and practices in the sciences? Which interdisciplinary epistemological challenges arise when we think about the use of AI beyond its dependency on big data? Not only the natural sciences, but also the social sciences and the humanities seem to be increasingly affected by current approaches of subsymbolic AI, which master problems of quality (fuzziness, uncertainty) in a hitherto unknown way. But what are the conditions, implications, and effects of these (potential) epistemic transformations and how must research on AI be configured to address them adequately?
