Summary

Asteroid Mining explores the exciting potential of extracting resources from asteroids, envisioning a future where space missions become self-sufficient. This book examines the science and technology needed to unlock the resource potential of asteroids. Successfully harnessing asteroid resources could revolutionize space exploration by providing essential materials like water for propellant and rare elements for advanced technologies.

 
The book begins by introducing the diversity of asteroids, their location, formation, and composition and then moves into the extraction technologies. It examines current and near-future methods for mining, refining, and processing asteroid materials in situ, like robotic mining.

 
The text also explores the economic and ethical considerations, including the potential impact on terrestrial markets. Supported by data from NASA and ESA missions, the book provides a balanced and realistic approach to the potential and challenges of asteroid mining.

    I did not become a doctor to help people cheat death, but to help them understand it. 
    In The Liver Doctor, Dr Cyriac Abby Philips, expert hepatologist and one of India's most vocal advocates of science-led medicine, tells us the fascinating story of the least understood, most indispensable and only self-regenerating organ in the human body-the liver.  
    With the searing precision of a scientist, the empathy of a doctor who witnesses the fragility of the human body every day and the dogged curiosity of a detective, Dr Philips dives into ancient myths and legends through various cultures, the annals of history as well as his own deeply personal encounters from his life as a doctor, taking his readers on a wondrous journey where belief collides with data and hope is tested against prognosis.  
    Along the way, he asks the uncomfortable questions that modern physicians often avoid: How much certainty should medicine promise? When does treatment become harm? And how do doctors and caregivers live with decisions that cannot be undone?  
    In the end, The Liver Doctor becomes a treatise on the history and evolution of medical science itself-one that will leave you informed and poignantly unsettled, long after the last page is turned.

    The groundbreaking, scientifically based anti-aging program for people of all ages 
    Many people believe that sags, bags, and wrinkles—on the face and body—are inevitable. According to award-winning research scientist and dermatologist Nicholas Perricone, M.D., they are due to inflammation at the cellular level caused by poor nutrition, pollution, sunlight, irritating skin care treatments, and stress. In fact, this type of inflammation is more than a beauty problem; it can lead to increased likelihood of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and arthritis.  
    	Now you can prevent—and even reverse—many signs of aging, producing visible improvement in the skin, and in your body’s overall health and appearance. Step by step, Dr. Perricone shows you how to improve your health, looks, and well-being, providing:  
    • A three-day “jump start” diet that will give you immediate results 
    • The 28-day Perricone Program of meals, exercise, and skin care 
    • A complete resource guide 
    • And much more!
