Sinopsis

Renowned marine conservationist and artist Richard Ellis addresses the popular myths, misconceptions, and exploits of great white sharks, tiger sharks, bull sharks, and the many other species that roam the waters of our planetDo sharks deserve their universally bad reputation? Sharks are clearly not harmless—Shark Attack includes many true stories of seemingly unwarranted attacks on humans. Yet if sharks truly were vengeful carnivores, no beach on earth would be safe for fishing, surfing, or swimming. Ellis argues that Jaws, the popular 1975 film that misrepresented sharks in almost every detail, has damaged our perception of sharks. Today, museums and aquariums endeavor to rehabilitate the shark’s image, and environmentalists and animal rights activists struggle to slow relentless overfishing. Yet their efforts may be too late to save hundreds of shark species from near or total extinction.

    Book Summary of Homo Deus by Yuval Noah Harari 
    About | Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow by Yuval Noah Harari • Since the beginning of history, humanity has considered itself more special than the rest of the world. And the last few centuries of technological progress have only cemented our dominance over other animals. Yet, the future of humanity is anything but clear. Because humans have tackled the long-enduring problems of hunger, global plagues and war, science and technological interest will soon need to focus on new challenges. Based on Harari's predictions, that future won’t look anything like the world we know today.  
     
    Harari wrote Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow as a sequel to his earlier book, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humanity. After looking at what made humans stand out in the first place (Sapiens), Harari turns his attention to the future and the likely attempts to upgrade humans into gods. What may seem impossible today (immortality, complete control over mood) might become possible in the future. The pace of technology and the prevalence of immersive data systems like Google is changing how humans relate to the world and challenging beliefs about the value of humans in the first place. Will all jobs be replaced by robots? Will the world be run by a class of upgraded super-humans? What will we do if this happens? By looking at history to predict the future, these are the questions that Harari answers. 
     
    Here’s what you’ll learn about in this summary: 3 challenges humanity has been fighting against since the beginning of time, and the challenges that'll begin to fill our time insteadWhy humans are more like machines than special beings with souls and free willHow the value of humans will change as technology continues to advanceAnd much more

    Through his work in plastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Donald Laub changed the lives of thousands of people who had been shunned by society. His influence fostered the development of three key areas in the surgical profession: pioneering and influencing international humanitarian medical missions in the developing world, being at the forefront of gender affirmation surgery for transgender people since 1968, and the education and training of more than fifty plastic and reconstructive surgeons. 
    His unstinting efforts to surgically correct cleft palates gave new lives to thousands of children in developing countries. As one of the original surgeons to perform gender affirmation surgery, Laub not only continually improved on his methods, but he also became a tireless advocate for the rights of transgender people. His non-profit foundation has sent thousands of multidisciplinary teams to perform transformative and reconstructive surgery in the developing world. 
    Second Lives, Second Chances is a testament to how the determination of one person can bring others together to make a lasting difference in the world.

    Astrobiology is an exciting new subject, and one, arguably, more interdisciplinary than any other. Astrobiologists seek to understand the origin and evolution of life on Earth in order to illuminate and guide the search for life on other planets. In this Very Short Introduction, David C. Catling introduces the subject through our understanding of the factors that allowed life to arise and persist on our own planet, and for the signs we are looking for in the search for extraterrestrial life.

    Dare to Care is a book about the magic of medicine and life. Patients long for caring and connection when they are ill, and the doctors who come to this profession full of care and compassion often leave feeling drained and diluted as human beings because they forget who they are. In this book, you will be reminded that essential harmony and well-being is your natural state, and what you have been looking for in any doctor you have sought. It offers an invitation to join a new bandwidth of caring, intuition, holism, and love, to ride the waves of living beyond the norm. 
    — from the foreword by Dr. Srini Pillay, Harvard Medical School.
