  If dogs could talk, what would they say is the best diet to keep them in tiptop condition?Would they recommend a selection of cans and packets from the supermarket. Or would they recommend half a chicken and a fresh rabbit?In Work Wonders, Dr Lonsdale looks at the dietary needs of dogs from a dog’s perspective, taking account of Nature’s teachings, easily understood science and sound common sense.This easy reader dispenses essential, easily understood information in eight chapters that will give you the confidence to provide the very best for your pets. You will learn about the deficiencies of modern-day so-called veterinary ‘science’. You will learn the importance of dental good health – both for you and your pets. Dr Lonsdale, from years of experience as a leader in his field, knows that pet owners need simple, clear, practical advice. First published in print in 2005, this audiobook stands the test of time.For your dog’s sake, enjoy this book, be inspired by this book. Your dog will be forever grateful.

  Nicolaus Copernicus: The Life...

  Today, Nicolaus Copernicus is remembered as the scientific innovator who championed the heliocentric model with the Sun at the center of the solar system, but it’s often forgotten that the risk of openly rebutting the longstanding beliefs and teachings of medieval mathematicians and the Church compelled him to only publish his theories near the end of his life. Through years of careful observation and mathematical analysis, he had become convinced that many of the discrepancies of traditional astronomy could be solved if the Sun, rather than Earth, occupied the central position. In his model, Earth was simply another planet moving around the Sun while also rotating on its axis.  
  	This seemingly simple change carried enormous implications, because if Earth was in motion, then humanity’s world was no longer the fixed center of the cosmos. In the same vein, the development of this theory required extraordinary intellectual courage, not only because the heliocentric model contradicted centuries of accepted authority, but because many theologians had embraced the geocentric worldview. Anyone who challenged the geocentric model would run afoul of the Church, which was still the most powerful authority in Europe, as Galileo Galilei would find out decades after Copernicus’ death.  
  	As a result, Copernicus proceeded cautiously, refining his ideas over decades rather than rushing them into print. His reluctance reflected both scholarly perfectionism and an awareness of the controversy his work might provoke. Eventually, he completed one of the most important scientific texts ever published, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres), which systematically presented his heliocentric model and offered detailed mathematical arguments in its defense. Copernicus’ work is now considered so important to the development of modern science that some historians have even described the era as the “Copernican Revolution.”

  The nanotechnology revolution that will transform human health and longevity Nano Comes to Life opens a window onto the nanoscale?the infinitesimal realm of proteins and DNA where physics and cellular and molecular biology meet?and introduces readers to the rapidly evolving nanotechnologies that are allowing us to manipulate the very building blocks of life. Sonia Contera gives an insider's perspective on this new frontier, revealing how nanotechnology enables a new kind of multidisciplinary science that is poised to give us control over our own biology, our health, and our lives. Drawing on her perspective as one of today's leading researchers in the field, Contera describes the exciting ways in which nanotechnology makes it possible to understand, interact with, and manipulate biology?such as by designing and building artificial structures and even machines at the nanoscale using DNA, proteins, and other biological molecules as materials. In turn, nanotechnology is revolutionizing medicine in ways that will have profound effects on our health and longevity, from nanoscale machines that can target individual cancer cells and deliver drugs more effectively, to nanoantibiotics that can fight resistant bacteria, to the engineering of tissues and organs for research, drug discovery, and transplantation. The future will bring about the continued fusion of nanotechnology with biology, physics, medicine, and cutting-edge fields like robotics and artificial intelligence, ushering us into a new "transmaterial era." As we contemplate the power, advantages, and risks of accessing and manipulating our own biology, Contera offers insight and hope that we may all share in the benefits of this revolutionary research.
