  A fascinating tour of creatures from the surface to the deepest ocean floor: this "miraculous, transcendental book" invites us to envision wilder, grander, and more abundant possibilities for the way we live (Ed Yong, author of An Immense World). A queer, mixed race writer working in a largely white, male field, science and conservation journalist Sabrina Imbler has always been drawn to the mystery of life in the sea, and particularly to creatures living in hostile or remote environments. Each essay in their debut collection profiles one such creature, including:     ·the mother octopus who starves herself while watching over her eggs,     ·the Chinese sturgeon whose migration route has been decimated by pollution and dams,     ·the bizarre, predatory Bobbitt worm (named after Lorena),     ·the common goldfish that flourishes in the wild,     ·and more.  Imbler discovers that some of the most radical models of family, community, and care can be found in the sea, from gelatinous chains that are both individual organisms and colonies of clones to deep-sea crabs that have no need for the sun, nourished instead by the chemicals and heat throbbing from the core of the Earth. Exploring themes of adaptation, survival, sexuality, and care, and weaving the wonders of marine biology with stories of their own family, relationships, and coming of age, How Far the Light Reaches is a shimmering, otherworldly debut that attunes us to new visions of our world and its miracles.    WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE in SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY  Finalist for the Lambda Literary Award One of TIME’s 10 Best Nonfiction Books of the Year •  A PEOPLE Best New Book  •  A Barnes & Noble and SHELF AWARENESS Best Book of 2022  •  An Indie Next Pick  •  One of Winter’s Most Eagerly Anticipated Books: VANITY FAIR, VULTURE, BOOKRIOT

  The Power of Prions - The...

  Michel Brahic

  Over the last decade, scientists have discovered the importance and widespread presence in the body of a remarkable family of proteins known as prion proteins. Research links various types of prion proteins to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's—and this has fueled the search for new drugs that could halt the progression of these terrible disorders. Other discoveries have revealed the essential roles prion proteins play in memory and immunity, and the part they may have played in the beginnings of life on our planet. 
   
   
   
  Brahic, a leading researcher on diseases of the central nervous system, first describes the discovery of prions and their role in infection, beginning with early work on the animal disease scrapie and a mysterious human illness in New Guinea, apparently transmitted by cannibalism. Prion proteins were then revealed as the cause of other illnesses, from "mad cow" disease and its human counterpart, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, to such noninfectious brain disorders as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. While the prion proteins responsible for diseases are definitively "bad," Brahic also explains that these abnormal prions are rare exceptions. Most of the time, prion proteins actually serve "good" and vital functions—and they may even have been present at the origin of life itself.

  "One law to rule the stars, the tides, and the falling apple."
  
  In The System of the World, Isaac Newton takes his rigorous mathematical proofs and applies them to the vast canvas of the cosmos. This is the work where the abstract becomes tangible. Newton explains with startling clarity how the same force that pulls an object to the ground keeps the Moon in its orbit and the planets in their dance around the Sun. He demystifies the movement of comets, the bulging of the Earth at its equator, and the rhythmic pulling of the tides. It is a foundational text of the Scientific Revolution, representing the moment humanity finally grasped the invisible threads that hold the physical world together.
  
  The Unity of the Heavens and Earth: Before Newton, many believed the laws of Earth and the laws of the Heavens were entirely separate. The System of the World shatters this divide. Newton's "Universal Law of Gravitation" proves that the universe is a unified system, predictable and governed by elegant, unchanging laws.
  
  A Blueprint for Modern Astronomy: Newton uses this work to calculate the masses of planets and explain the perturbations in their orbits. His insights into the "Great Comet of 1680" proved that even these seemingly chaotic visitors follow the same elliptical paths as the planets, bringing order to the last frontier of the night sky.
  
  Why It Is a Scientific Landmark: The System of the World is more than a physics book; it is the birth of the modern world. It moved humanity away from superstition and toward a universe that could be measured, understood, and explored. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the origins of the mechanical age and the leap in logic that allowed us to eventually reach the stars.
  
  Witness the logic of the cosmos. Purchase "The System of the World" today.
