Hematology - The Bloodline:...

Mike Crawford

Blood is one of the most vital components of the human body, performing essential functions that sustain life. It serves as the primary transport system, delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues while removing waste products. Beyond its role in circulation, blood is integral to immunity, clotting, and maintaining homeostasis. Understanding its significance is crucial not only for medical professionals but for anyone interested in maintaining good health. 
One of the most fundamental roles of blood is oxygen transportation. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen in the lungs and carries it to cells throughout the body. Without this continuous supply of oxygen, tissues would quickly deteriorate, leading to organ failure and death. At the same time, blood carries carbon dioxide, a waste product of cellular metabolism, back to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body. This exchange ensures that cells function efficiently and that the body's pH levels remain balanced. 
Beyond oxygen transport, blood is responsible for distributing nutrients absorbed from the digestive system. Glucose, amino acids, lipids, and vitamins travel through the bloodstream to nourish organs and fuel metabolic processes. Additionally, blood removes waste products such as urea and lactic acid, transporting them to the kidneys and liver for detoxification and elimination. This regulatory role ensures that harmful substances do not accumulate to dangerous levels.

Son of Apollo - The Adventures...

Christopher A. Roosa, James Lovell

Christopher A. Roosa grew up the eldest son of Apollo 14 astronaut and command module pilot Stuart A. Roosa. As a child of the space program, Christopher had a ringside seat at the dinner table of one of twenty-four Americans who had either entered lunar orbit or landed on the moon. The first book written by an offspring of an Apollo astronaut to focus on growing up in that era, Son of Apollo tells the inside story of the life of his father, a man who had a remarkable career despite always believing his air force career was "off-track," from his initial application to the service to his removal from the prime crew of Apollo 13 and his subsequent assignment to Apollo 14. During the Apollo 13 mission and recovery, Stuart played an integral role in developing the procedures to return the crew to Earth safely. The focus—and the pressure—of the entire Apollo program then shifted to the Apollo 14 mission. If the Apollo program was to continue, Stuart and the Apollo 14 crew would need to get safely to the moon, land, and return. 
 
 
 
In writing about his father's career, Christopher Roosa also shows us a familial side of the Apollo experience, from the daily struggles of growing up in the shadow of a father who was necessarily away in training most of the year to the expectations involved in being an astronaut's son.
