  Conquering Childhood Anemia -...

  Anemia is one of the most common nutritional deficiencies affecting children worldwide, and among its various forms, iron deficiency anemia stands out as the most prevalent. Understanding what anemia is and how it impacts a child’s growth and development is the first step in effectively addressing and managing it. 
  At its core, anemia is a condition in which the body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin to carry adequate oxygen to the body’s tissues. Hemoglobin is an essential protein in red blood cells that binds to oxygen and transports it from the lungs to the rest of the body. When iron levels are too low, the body cannot produce enough hemoglobin, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, irritability, and a noticeable decline in energy and attention span. In children, these symptoms can have a serious impact on their physical and cognitive development. 
  Iron plays a crucial role in a child’s growth. Beyond its function in making hemoglobin, iron is also necessary for brain development, muscle function, and the production of certain hormones. In growing kids, especially during periods of rapid development like infancy and adolescence, the demand for iron increases significantly. When this demand isn’t met through diet or supplementation, iron stores in the body begin to deplete, resulting in iron deficiency anemia. This is why children are particularly vulnerable during these critical windows of growth.

  How To Think About AI - A Guide...

  In recent years, there has been massive public and professional interest in Artificial Intelligence. But people are confused about what AI is, what it can and cannot do, what is yet to come, and whether AI is good or bad for humanity and civilization—whether it will provide solutions to mankind's major challenges or become our gravest existential threat. There is also confusion about how we should regulate AI and where we should draw moral boundaries on its use. 
   
   
   
  In How To Think About AI, Richard Susskind draws on his experience of working on AI since the early 1980s. For Susskind, balancing the benefits and threats of artificial intelligence is the defining challenge of our age. He explores the history of AI and possible scenarios for its future. His views on AI are not always conventional. He positions ChatGPT and generative AI as no more than the latest chapter in the ongoing story of AI and claims we are still at the foothills of developments. He argues that to think responsibly about the impact of AI requires us to look well beyond today's technologies, suggesting that not-yet-invented technologies will have far greater impact on us in the 2030s than the tools we have today. This leads Susskind to discuss the possibility of conscious machines, magnificent new AI-enabled virtual worlds, and the impact of AI on the evolution of biological humans.

  The Sixth History of Man

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Sixth History of Man is the last narrative in the History of Man Series that uses infection as the underlying foundation. The series will continue but use other disease platforms for jumping off. From a human infection perspective, this sixth book will visit with the King of Pop Michael Jackson, vitiligo and propofol, the famous and infamous sexually transmitted diseases—herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas, HIV and the granddaddy of colorful stories, syphilis—with their very entertaining tales, a world of romance, suspense, and thrillers. We’ll hop from science to art to music, going back in time to the astronomy of the Persians, Syrians, the Greek Aristotle and on to Ptolemy, Copernicus and Kepler. Our travels will take us to the Renaissance of art and music, stopping along a few stations, such as da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, and Monet. A discussion of why and how humans went from spoken language to written language is on our menu. We will pay homage with another visit with the First Viennese School, parse senility, delirium, and dementia and most assuredly discuss the women who helped build Johns Hopkins Hospital. OK Boomers! and the sociology of cohort generations will help complete this narrative.
