Programming is the process of writing instructions that a computer can execute to perform specific tasks. It is the foundation of software development, enabling individuals to create applications, websites, and various digital solutions. Understanding the basics of programming is crucial for anyone looking to develop problem-solving skills and enter the world of technology. At its core, programming involves writing code in a language that a computer understands. These languages, such as Python, Java, and C++, have their own syntax and rules. Learning how to structure and organize code is the first step in becoming proficient in programming. It requires logical thinking, creativity, and patience to develop solutions that function efficiently. One of the key reasons to learn programming is its increasing relevance in various industries. From healthcare and finance to entertainment and artificial intelligence, programming plays a vital role in shaping modern innovations. Whether developing a mobile application, automating repetitive tasks, or analyzing large datasets, programming skills are highly valuable in today’s digital landscape.Ver livro
Have you ever thought about what your life may be like as you grow older, and what technology will be available to you at that time?In The AgeTech Revolution, Keren Etkin takes you on a journey to explore what the intersection of tech and aging looks like today. This book explores the changing face of aging in the 21st century, through the lens of the fast-paced digital transformation our society is going through. It goes into challenges of aging that are currently being tackled by technology - using the real-life stories of tech entrepreneurs and older adults. Etkin also provides a glimpse into the future, and what agetech could be like five, ten, fifteen years down the road. We have a unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to impact the experience of living as an older adult in this world, using technology. The AgeTech Revolution provides us with the data and perspective necessary to change our tech landscape and to create a world that is more inclusive and supportive of older adults.Ver livro
The human skin is more than a mere protective barrier; it is a dynamic, complex ecosystem that reveals the intricate conversations between our immune system, external environment, and internal health. In this comprehensive exploration of dermatological conditions, we unravel the mysteries of disorders that emerge when the body's delicate biological mechanisms turn against themselves, transforming protective responses into sources of persistent challenge. Rhinophyma, Rosacea, Scabies, and Yeast Infections represent a diverse spectrum of conditions that not only impact physical appearance but profoundly influence an individual's psychological well-being, social interactions, and quality of life. Beyond the clinical descriptions and medical terminology lies a deeply human narrative of resilience, adaptation, and the ongoing struggle between our body's defensive systems and invasive or dysregulated biological processes. Each condition examined in this volume tells a unique story of cellular miscommunication, inflammatory responses, and the complex interplay between genetic predisposition, environmental triggers, and individual immune system variations. By delving into the biological mechanisms, diagnostic challenges, treatment strategies, and personal experiences associated with these skin and tissue conditions, we aim to provide a holistic understanding that transcends traditional medical discourse, offering insights for healthcare professionals, patients, and anyone seeking to comprehend the remarkable complexity of human dermatological health.Ver livro
When Sylvain Tesson left the colorful yellow houses of the French Riveria for a ski trek across the Alps with his friend Daniel du Lac, a high-altitude mountain guide, he didn't know what exactly would await him. Over the course of four years, from 2018 to 2021, they ascended high into the Alps in winter, following the curve of the mountains from the Mediterranean to the Adriatic, entering into a white world entirely of snow, bitterly cold, and overlooked by an empty sky; only the effort of moving forward, one stride at a time, separated the days from one another. He thought he was venturing into beauty but he was immersing himself in a substance. In the white of the high Alps all is canceled out—hopes, fears, memories, and regrets. What did he stand to gain by inflicting this ordeal on himself? This was no ordinary mountain trek: it was communion with a substance. Perhaps his longtime dream of transforming travel into prayer would come true at last.Ver livro
We understand the workings of the human body as a series of interdependent physiological relationships, all the way down to the inner workings of every cell. Why is it that the accepted understanding that the physical phenomenon of the mind is attributed only to the brain? In The Embodied Mind, internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas R. Verny sets out to redefine our concept of the mind and consciousness. He brilliantly compiles new research that points to the mind's ties to every part of the body. The Embodied Mind collects disparate findings in physiology, genetics, and quantum physics in order to illustrate the mounting evidence that somatic cells, not just neural cells, store memory, inform genetic coding, and adapt to environmental changes—all behaviors that contribute to the mind and consciousness. Verny describes single-celled organisms with no brains demonstrating memory, and points to the remarkable case of a French man who, despite having a brain just a fraction of the typical size, leads a normal life with a family and a job. The Embodied Mind shows how intelligence and consciousness—traits traditionally attributed to the brain alone—also permeate our entire being.Ver livro
Summary: What Happened to You? (Oprah Winfrey and Bruce Perry) You are likely to be familiar with the question, “What’s wrong with you?” We've all encountered it at some point, and most likely, we've asked it ourselves. But have you ever considered that this might be the wrong question to ask? In a powerful and compelling conversation, Oprah and Dr. Perry discuss the importance of our past in shaping us and why asking “What’s wrong with you?” might be an unhelpful and misguided question. They propose shifting the focus to “What happened to you?” instead. This may seem simple, but it has been groundbreaking in changing the way we understand and think about trauma, which in turn has offered a significantly more optimistic approach to recovery. Asking “What happened to you?” also removes any unintentional blame or fault directed toward any traumatized individual. It favors a compassionate, empathetic approach to therapy and healing. But this is just one of the core messages of Oprah and Dr. Perry’s book. “Summary: What Happened to You?” provides you with all the powerful ideas, practices, and concepts that Oprah and Dr. Perry discuss in their original book. You'll get:A complete breakdown of the original covering the most essential aspects of it in a concise, clear, and easy-to-read format—without missing anything important!Explanations of key brain systems and processes from a world-leading neuroscientist and trauma specialist.Information on different methods of trauma treatment.A powerful combination of storytelling and the latest research on neuroscience and traumatology.Shocking facts about trauma.And much more! While it is beneficial to have read their original work, it’s not compulsory, as this summary will provide you with all the information you need. Don't miss out on the combined wisdom of these two giants.Ver livro
