  In this exploration of the concept of the gene, Jonathan Slack looks at the discovery, nature, and role of genes in both evolution and development. Explaining the nature of genetic variation in the human population, how hereditary factors were identified as molecules of DNA, and how certain specific mutations can lead to disease, Slack highlights how DNA variants are used to trace human ancestry and migration, and can also be used by forensic scientists to identify individuals in crime. Slack also explores issues such as the role of genetic heritability and IQ as well as the changes that occur in the genes of populations during evolution. 
   
   
   
  An ideal guide for anyone curious about what genes are and how genetics can be put to use, this Very Short Introduction demonstrates the ways in which the gene concept has been understood and used by molecular biologists, population biologists, and social scientists around the world.

  Times Out of Mind - Exploring...

  Chris Robinson

  While visiting Japan, animation writer Chris Robinson gets lost. Drifting through Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Kyoto, he stumbles into a string of encounters―with mysterious figures like Bob Dylan, Haruki Murakami, sumo wrestlers, and Big Bird, and with Japanese animators both living and dead. Each meeting draws him into a deep, dark, uncanny current of Japanese animation―one that has nothing to do with Godzilla, Akira, anime, manga, or Hayao Miyazaki. 
  The original book, Time Out of Mind, rewrites this history through the artists Robinson meets and studies―Koji Yamamura, Atsushi Wada, Taku Furukawa, Renzo and Sayoko Kinoshita, Maya Yonesho, and many more―while his drifting becomes the method: a travelogue that keeps slipping into something stranger. 
  Times Out of Mind reprints that original book in full, then adds a new section written fifteen years later. Robinson returns to Japan to reopen the same uncanny thread―new conversations, new detours―while figures from the first journey reappear. Along the way, he meets artists including Masaaki Yuasa, Kenji Iwaisawa, Sawako Kabuki, Yoriko Mizushiri, and Ryo Orikasa. The result is part travelogue, part memoir, part fiction, and part off-the-map animation history.

  Navigating Life with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis provides accessible, comprehensive, and up-to-date information about the challenges patients, family members, and caregivers face when confronted by ALS, a disease that affects approximately 5,600 Americans every year, with as many as 30,000 people managing the disease at any given time. ALS is a difficult disease for the patient and is also challenging for the caregiver and family as there are many questions, issues relating to care, and problems to manage. This guide covers all aspects of managing ALS, from the onset of symptoms, diagnosis, treatments, and coping strategies to the use of home health care or hospice, and new research in the field. The book also sheds lights on difficult topics, such as end-of-life care and managing legal affairs. 
   
   
   
  Navigating Life with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is unique because it covers two perspectives: one author is a neurologist with thirty years of experience treating ALS patients, and the other author experienced first-hand the issues in providing care for a parent with ALS. Formatted in a question-and-answer style, peppered throughout with patient stories, and with sections devoted to family members and caregivers, this compassionate resource provides guidance to those seeking to understand how to live with this disease.
