  Oncology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer. It encompasses a wide range of practices, including understanding the biology of cancer, identifying risk factors, exploring therapeutic approaches, and addressing the challenges faced by patients with cancer. The discipline is vital to improving the lives of millions of people worldwide, with ongoing research aimed at advancing our knowledge and capabilities in combating the disease. 
  Cancer, a term used to describe a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth, has been a significant health concern for centuries. It occurs when normal cells acquire genetic mutations that enable them to grow and divide uncontrollably, forming tumors or affecting other parts of the body. Despite significant advances in medical science, cancer remains a leading cause of death, highlighting the need for continued innovation in oncology. 
  The importance of oncology lies not only in the treatment of cancer but also in early detection and prevention. Through advancements in diagnostic techniques, clinicians can identify cancers at an earlier stage when treatment options are more effective, leading to better outcomes. The evolving field of oncology also involves interdisciplinary care, combining surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies to provide personalized treatment regimens that are tailored to the individual needs of patients.

  River Notes - Drought and the...

  From bestselling author, long-time former National Geographic Explorer, and anthropologist Wade Davis comes the story of America's Nile: how it once flowed freely and how human intervention has left it near exhaustion, altering the water temperature, volume, local species, and shoreline of the river Theodore Roosevelt once urged us to "leave it as it is." 
   
   
   
  Plugged by no fewer than twenty-five dams, the Colorado is the world's most regulated river drainage, providing most of the water supply of Las Vegas, Tucson, and San Diego, and much of the power and water of Los Angeles and Phoenix, cities that are home to more than 25 million people. For the entire American Southwest, the Colorado is indeed the river of life, which makes it all the more tragic and ironic that by the time it approaches its final destination, it has been reduced to a shadow upon the sand, its delta dry and deserted, its flow a toxic trickle seeping into the sea. 
   
   
   
  Yet despite more than a century of human interference, Davis writes, the splendor of the Colorado lives on in the river's remaining wild rapids, quiet pools, and sweeping canyons. The story of the Colorado River is the human quest for progress and its inevitable effects—and an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and foster the rebirth of America's most iconic waterway.

  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
