Since the discovery of strongly radioactive substances, research on radioactivity has been greatly developed. I propose in this article to give an account of the actual state of our knowledge relative to this subject, laying particular stress on the most recent work. (Pierre Curie - 1904)
An exploration of the transformative ways in which nature has inspired the technological advancement of humankind. Biomimetics literally means emulating biology - and in a broader sense the term covers technological advances where the original inspiration came from nature. The Earth is a vast laboratory where the mechanisms of natural selection have enabled evolutionary solutions to be developed to a wide range of problems. In this new title in the Hot Science series, science writer Brian Clegg looks at how humans have piggybacked on natural experimentation, redeploying a solution to create things that make our lives easier. He looks at how the hooks on burdock seeds inspired the creation of Velcro, how the stickiness of the feet of geckos and frogs has been used to create gripping surfaces, such as tyre treads, and how even the most basic optical enhancement in the form of spectacles is itself a form of biomimetics.Show book
The process of human conception is an extraordinary biological event that marks the beginning of life. It is a highly coordinated sequence of events that begins with the formation of gametes—sperm and egg—culminating in fertilization and the establishment of a genetically unique individual. This miraculous process is governed by intricate molecular mechanisms that ensure the successful transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next. Gametogenesis, the formation of sperm and egg cells, is the first essential step in conception. In males, this process, known as spermatogenesis, occurs in the testes and results in the production of millions of motile sperm cells. In females, oogenesis takes place within the ovaries, producing a limited number of mature eggs, typically one per menstrual cycle. Unlike sperm, which are continuously produced throughout a man’s life, a female is born with all the eggs she will ever have, and they gradually diminish in number over time. These gametes contain half the genetic material necessary for human life, ensuring that when they unite, the resulting zygote inherits a complete set of chromosomes.Show book

Community development lies at the heart of creating sustainable, thriving, and inclusive urban neighborhoods. It is a process that empowers residents, organizations, and stakeholders to work together toward shared goals, addressing pressing issues while building resilience and fostering a sense of belonging. This approach is not merely about improving infrastructure or economic growth; it is about nurturing the human connections that sustain communities and drive positive change. At its core, community development is rooted in the idea that the people who live in a community are its greatest resource. Empowering individuals to take ownership of their neighborhoods fosters a sense of pride, responsibility, and collective action. By identifying and addressing local challenges—such as affordable housing, access to education, and environmental sustainability—residents can transform their shared spaces into vibrant, dynamic environments where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. The importance of community development is particularly evident in urban areas, where challenges like overcrowding, economic disparity, and social fragmentation often intersect. These densely populated neighborhoods are microcosms of society, representing both its struggles and its potential for innovation and progress. Community development efforts help bridge divides by fostering dialogue, collaboration, and mutual understanding among diverse groups. Through initiatives such as leadership training, mentorship programs, and local events, urban residents can strengthen their networks and create a culture of support and inclusivity.Show book
