Sinopse

Snowstorm Survival offers a comprehensive guide for navigating the perils of extreme winter weather, focusing on blizzard dynamics, cold-related injuries, and whiteout navigation. It argues that proactive preparation and informed decision-making are crucial for survival in these harsh conditions. The book uniquely combines scientific analysis with practical survival advice, differentiating itself from general survival guides by focusing specifically on blizzards.

 
The book begins by exploring the meteorological forces behind blizzards, then transitions to the physiological effects of extreme cold, detailing the progression of hypothermia and frostbite. A key aspect covered is whiteout navigation, teaching readers how to use maps, compasses, GPS devices, and even natural clues to maintain direction. Did you know that snowstorms can reduce visibility to near zero, making navigation incredibly challenging? Also, understanding wind direction and snowdrift patterns can be invaluable when visibility is limited.

 
Later chapters cover shelter construction, signaling for help, and psychological strategies for maintaining morale. The book concludes with real-world case studies, extracting key lessons learned. Snowstorm Survival emphasizes that survival is not about luck, but about understanding the risks and applying proven strategies, making it an invaluable resource for anyone living, working, or traveling in snow-prone regions.

    Insulin - A Hundred-Year History

    In 1922, researchers made one of the most important medical breakthroughs of the century: insulin. Their discovery seemed miraculous. When it was given to diabetic patients on the brink of death, their condition rapidly improved. 
     
     
     
    However, this was no simple cure. Injections must be taken for life. Without them, symptoms quickly return, often with fatal results. But while a lifetime on insulin poses great challenges, it also offers opportunities. In this revelatory history, Stuart Bradwel looks back on one of medicine's most celebrated innovations. Setting professional narrative against subjective patient experience, he tells the story of a drug that has challenged many of the basic assumptions upon which medical practice is built, both inside and outside the clinic. 
     
     
     
    Nevertheless, Bradwel reminds us that the centenary of this apparent "wonder drug" should be no cause for celebration. Insulin often remains inaccessible to those who need it most: elusive prescriptions, uneven availability and sky-high prices result in rationing and desperate do-it-yourself research and development. In the face of bootstraps rhetoric and "Pharma Bro" capitalists, patients across the world are left to fend for themselves. There is a long way to go in the twenty-first century until insulin truly fulfills the extraordinary promises made by its discovery.

    When a young girl, Cardy Raper told her mother, "When I grow up I want to be a scientist and make grand discoveries!" Her mother responded, "You could become a nurse." Science was a man's world then. Cardy refused to take "no" for an answer.   Her dream seemed attainable when she met her mentor, Professor John "Red" Raper at the University of Chicago who said "Yes, you can be a scientist!" They became soul mates, fell in love, married, parented children, moved to Harvard, and did research together on the versatile sex life of fungi.  Red's untimely death left Cardy alone in the competitive world of cuttingedge science. She carried on, obtained a doctoral degree, learned the techniques of molecular genetics, and established her own laboratory where she conducted pioneering research on the genetic and molecular determinants of sexual reproduction in a mushroombearing fungus with 20,000 different sexes. This fungus has served as a model organism for exploring the way in which sensing molecules, such as pheromones, function to communicate in more complex organisms.
