Sinossi

Archaea Facts explores the fascinating world of archaea, single-celled microorganisms representing a distinct domain of life alongside bacteria and eukaryotes. These organisms thrive in diverse habitats, from extreme environments like hot springs to more moderate settings, challenging our understanding of life's limits. The book uncovers their unique cellular structures, metabolic pathways, and genetics, revealing how they've adapted to survive where other organisms cannot. For example, some archaea play a crucial role in global biogeochemical cycles, influencing the planet's past, present, and future.

 
The book begins by tracing the history of archaea's discovery and their revolutionary classification as a separate domain. It then details their varied habitats and adaptations, followed by an exploration of their potential in fields like bioremediation and biofuel production. Finally, it discusses the implications of archaeal research for understanding the origin and evolution of life, and even the search for extraterrestrial life, making a case for their importance beyond just academic interest.

    Coming from a working-class background, Paul Besley knew the worst and best of life in a Yorkshire steel town. He had always been drawn to the solitude of the hills, but that life nearly ended when a fall while hillwalking left him critically injured and alone in the mountains of the Lake District. Paul was found and brought to safety by a mountain rescue team. This was the trigger for him to transform his life, first by joining his local team, then by finding Scout, his very own Border collie puppy, and training him to become a mountain rescue search dog.
    In The Search, Paul writes with humour and honesty as we follow him and Scout through their complex training, with searches and rescue incidents sometimes tragic and often funny. Paul's demons and headstrong characters threaten to derail them, until his past finally catches up with him and his life inescapably unravels. It's up to Scout to keep an eye on him now as Paul tries to build the best life he can.

    Yeast infections are a common and often uncomfortable condition caused by an overgrowth of yeast, a type of fungus that naturally resides in the human body. While yeast is typically harmless in balanced amounts, certain conditions can trigger an overproduction, leading to infection. The most common culprit behind yeast infections is Candida albicans, though other species of Candida can also be responsible. This chapter explores what yeast infections are, their various types, and the role of Candida in the human body. 
    A yeast infection occurs when the natural balance of microorganisms is disrupted. In a healthy body, bacteria such as Lactobacillus help keep yeast levels in check. However, factors like antibiotic use, hormonal changes, a weakened immune system, and high sugar intake can upset this balance, allowing yeast to multiply rapidly. The most well-known type of yeast infection is vaginal candidiasis, affecting a significant number of women at some point in their lives. Symptoms typically include itching, burning, redness, swelling, and a thick, white discharge. Although vaginal yeast infections are the most common, yeast infections can also affect other parts of the body, including the mouth (oral thrush), skin folds, and the digestive tract. 
    Yeast infections are not limited to women; men and children can also be affected. Oral thrush is particularly common in infants and individuals with compromised immune systems, such as those undergoing chemotherapy or living with HIV/AIDS. Skin yeast infections often occur in warm, moist areas like under the breasts, in the groin, or between toes, leading to red, itchy rashes that can be difficult to manage without proper treatment. In severe cases, yeast infections can become systemic, affecting internal organs and becoming life-threatening, though this is rare and usually occurs in individuals with severely weakened immune systems.

    'Achieving net zero will be the most amazing thing humankind has ever done.' - Bill Gates 
    In 2010, Bill Gates first came up with the term 'Innovating to Zero' to advocate a nuclear energy technology that would be safe and reliable, and have zero emissions. From its early use as a placeholder in Mesopotamian and Mayan civilizations to being ascribed value in seventh-century India, zero has today become the foundation without which modern world would crumble. In the twenty-first century, zero is taking on a completely new meaning - VISION ZERO. 
    In Innovating to Zero, Sarwant Singh sets out to explore a zero-concept world, where this vision can be used to create a sustainable future by achieving zero-emission vehicles, zero waste, zero accidents, zero defects, zero security breaches, zero carbon emissions, zero obesity and even zero diseases. From companies like Nissan, Britannia and Atos to a government organization like UK's Jet Zero Council to even a football club like Tottenham Hotspur, the book highlights the various fields where zero can play a disruptive role-be it among communities or corporates, in the context of social and business agendas, both today and in the future. 
    For readers, Singh provides a step-by-step approach to designing, developing and delivering a zero-vision strategy and a framework to achieve it, inspiring them to create a sustainable planet.
