  "Fascinating and exhilarating—Sean B. Carroll at his very best."—Bill Bryson, author of The Body: A Guide for Occupants
  
  In this audiobook, acclaimed writer and biologist Sean B. Carroll narrates the rollicking, awe-inspiring story of the surprising power of chance in our lives and the world
  
  Why is the world the way it is? How did we get here? Does everything happen for a reason or are some things left to chance? Philosophers and theologians have pondered these questions for millennia, but startling scientific discoveries over the past half century are revealing that we live in a world driven by chance. A Series of Fortunate Events tells the story of the awesome power of chance and how it is the surprising source of all the beauty and diversity in the living world.
  
  Like every other species, we humans are here by accident. But it is shocking just how many things—any of which might never have occurred—had to happen in certain ways for any of us to exist. From an extremely improbable asteroid impact, to the wild gyrations of the Ice Age, to invisible accidents in our parents' gonads, we are all here through an astonishing series of fortunate events. And chance continues to reign every day over the razor-thin line between our life and death.
  
  This is a relatively small book about a really big idea. It is also a spirited tale. Drawing inspiration from Monty Python, Kurt Vonnegut, and other great thinkers, and crafted by one of today's most accomplished science storytellers, A Series of Fortunate Events is an irresistibly entertaining and thought-provoking account of one of the most important but least appreciated facts of life.

  ADVANCE PRAISE FOR EPILEPSY YOU'RE NOT ALONE 
  Inspired by her own battles, Chillemi wrote a book to give those coping with the disorder greater self-esteem, hope, and motivation. -- Lad - Star-Ledger Newspaper 
  Life deals us many hard blows that we often don't expect. I admire the fact that someone like Stacey Chillemi was thrown a curveball that may have knocked many of us down to the point where many of us may not have wanted to get back up, but she did. It wasn't easy, but she possesses a determined spirit that won't let her give up. For that reason, Stacey will go far and achieve whatever dreams she sets her mind to accomplish. Della Crews Reporter -- Editorial Review -Anchor / Talk Show Host /News 12 NJ, Review 
  An important, clearly-written book with everything I've been looking for, for over 50 years since I was diagnosed with epilepsy. In particular, I'm able to explain to others things about me that I never knew before, as well as recommend this book. Thanks to the author for sharing her knowledge with the world.

  The Essentials of Pharmacology -...

  Pharmacology is the study of drugs and their effects on the human body. It plays a pivotal role in healthcare by enabling healthcare professionals to understand how various substances interact with biological systems to treat diseases, alleviate symptoms, and improve patients' quality of life. The field encompasses drug development, mechanisms of action, therapeutic applications, and the risks associated with medications. Pharmacology is fundamental in determining the most appropriate treatments for different conditions, as well as understanding potential drug interactions, side effects, and the therapeutic index of each medication. 
  One key aspect of pharmacology is understanding the classification of drugs. Drugs can be classified based on their therapeutic use, chemical structure, or mechanism of action. This classification helps healthcare professionals identify suitable medications for specific conditions. For example, analgesics are used to relieve pain, while antibiotics are used to treat infections. Drugs can also be categorized based on their route of administration, such as oral, intravenous, or topical, which affects how they are absorbed and metabolized by the body. 
  Another important concept in pharmacology is pharmacokinetics, which refers to how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes, and excretes drugs. This process is influenced by various factors such as the patient’s age, health condition, and genetic factors. Pharmacodynamics, on the other hand, deals with the effects of drugs on the body and how they produce their therapeutic outcomes. Both pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are essential for understanding the efficacy and safety of drugs.
