The Edge of the Dark - Tales of the Thylacine

Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In the annals of lost species, the thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger, holds a haunting place. This enigmatic marsupial predator once roamed Australia's wilderness, captivating the imaginations of Indigenous peoples and European settlers alike. However, by the early 20th century, the thylacine had vanished from the Earth, leaving behind a mystery that has intrigued scientists and conservationists for generations.

This book takes readers on a captivating journey to uncover the story of the thylacine, from its unique evolutionary history to its tragic decline. Through meticulously researched text and vivid storytelling, we explore the thylacine's remarkable characteristics, behavior, and habitat. We delve into the complex web of factors that led to its extinction, including hunting, habitat destruction, and disease.

Beyond the scientific narrative, we also explore the cultural significance of the thylacine to the Indigenous peoples of Australia, for whom it held deep spiritual and symbolic meaning. We examine the efforts made to preserve and potentially revive this iconic species, highlighting the challenges and ethical considerations involved in such endeavors.

The thylacine's story serves as a powerful reminder of the delicate balance between humanity and the natural world. Its extinction is a stark indictment of our past actions and a call to action for a more sustainable and compassionate future. This book is not only a tribute to a lost species but also a meditation on loss, resilience, and the enduring power of hope.

With each page, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the thylacine's unique place in the world and a renewed sense of responsibility to protect and preserve the biodiversity that remains. The thylacine's tale is a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of all living things and the importance of cherishing the natural world that sustains us.

Clinical Pharmacology - Drug...

Ava Westwood

Clinical pharmacology is a vital field of medicine that bridges the gap between pharmacology and patient care. It encompasses the study of drugs, their effects on the human body, and how they are used in clinical settings to treat diseases and manage health conditions. This discipline is crucial in ensuring that medications are used effectively, safely, and appropriately across diverse patient populations. 
At its core, clinical pharmacology focuses on understanding the pharmacokinetics (how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes, and excretes drugs) and pharmacodynamics (how drugs exert their effects on the body) of various substances. It also explores the therapeutic effects of drugs, including their potential side effects, interactions with other medications, and the individual variability in response to drugs. These insights are pivotal for designing safe and personalized treatment regimens. 
The role of clinical pharmacology extends to drug development, where it plays a key part in testing new medications for efficacy and safety through clinical trials. This process ensures that drugs meet regulatory standards before reaching the market. Additionally, clinical pharmacology contributes to post-marketing surveillance, monitoring the long-term effects of drugs once they are widely used in the population.

Understanding the Artificial...

Shalom Lappin

After many years during which it languished in relative obscurity, in remote classrooms of computer science departments and in small prototype projects for tech companies, artificial intelligence (AI) is now a searingly hot topic across the media. Yet much of the public discussion is so feverish that an understanding of the basic scientific and engineering elements of the field is easily lost, often resulting in exaggerated claims, as well as dangerously neglected threats. 
 
This concise and sober book presents a brief history of AI, explaining in clear language the central engineering innovations that have produced the current revolution. It distinguishes between imagined dangers and the very real problems that AI is creating. Spread across seven short and accessible chapters, this book explains the developments behind deep learning and the applications of deep neural networks (DNNs). It addresses both the imagined and actual risks posed by the AI revolution, before outlining the elements of a rational public policy on AI, covering topics like tech monopolies, disinformation, bias, hate speech, intellectual property rights, and inequality. 
 
Understanding the Artificial Intelligence Revolution: Between Catastrophe and Utopia is the ideal book for anyone seeking a clear and informed introduction to AI.
