Snakes Infrared Sight

Sinopse

Snakes' Infrared Sight reveals the hidden world perceived through temperature by certain snakes. Pit vipers, boas, and pythons possess the remarkable ability to "see" heat, enabling them to hunt warm-blooded prey in complete darkness. The book delves into the biological mechanisms, evolutionary history, and ecological implications of this infrared vision.

 
For example, some snakes can detect temperature differences as small as 0.003 degrees Celsius, and this thermal sensitivity plays a crucial role in predator-prey dynamics, allowing snakes to effectively exploit nocturnal environments. The book explores the anatomy and physiology of snake infrared receptors, the evolutionary origins of thermal imaging, and the behavioral impact of infrared sensitivity.

 
It traces the neural pathways from the receptors to the brain, explaining how snakes process thermal information to create a "thermal image" of their surroundings, offering a comprehensive synthesis of current scientific knowledge. This unique sensory adaptation highlights the intricate interplay between genes, environment, and natural selection, showcasing how specialized sensory systems evolve to meet specific ecological challenges.

Finding Genius: Understanding...

Richard Jacobs

This book is for three kinds of audiences: 1) curious amateurs interested in science or overall wellness, 2) anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer or knows someone who has, and 3) medical, bioengineering, or other professionals who have a general knowledge of and curiosity about any or all aspects of cancer biology and treatment, but who are not experts in the field.
This book is the result of 70+ interviews of genius-level medical and science professionals, primarily in cancer biology, research, and medicine. They have all been asked the same set of questions, and have answered to the best of their ability and knowledge.
What you’re about to read is the answers to these questions, not from all the individuals, but from the most interesting 4 to 9 who answered each question.
At the start of my journey in science, I already had a B.S. in Chemical Engineering, but that was from 1998, certainly not 2016 when I started. Reading scientific papers was difficult at first – I understood about 10% of what I was reading. As I interviewed more scientists, researchers, clinicians and others, I started to pick up the vocabulary and thinking process needed to read scientific papers.
After a year of reading, my comprehension increased, and now stands at around 70%, typically. In the areas of physics or other sciences in which I’m not conversant, I understand about 30%. In advanced math, since it’s a language unto itself, especially at high levels, I am back to the 10% level. Apply yourself, and you’ll be surprised by what you can learn in a year’s time.

Analytics the Right Way - A...

Tim Wilson, Dr. Joe Sutherland

Organizations have more data at their fingertips than ever, and their ability to put that data to productive use should be a key source of sustainable competitive advantage. Yet, business leaders looking to tap into a steady and manageable stream of "actionable insights" often, instead, get blasted with a deluge of dashboards, chart-filled slide decks, and opaque machine learning jargon that leaves them asking, "So what?" 
 
 
 
Analytics the Right Way is a guide for these leaders. It provides a clear and practical approach to putting analytics to productive use with a three-part framework that brings together the realities of the modern business environment with the deep truths underpinning statistics, computer science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. The result: a pragmatic and actionable guide for delivering clarity, order, and business impact to an organization's use of data and analytics. 
 
 
 
The book uses real-world examples from the authors' direct experiences—working inside organizations, as external consultants, and as educators—to empower the listener to put foundational analytical and statistical concepts to effective use in a business context.
