Beschreibung

"Five Senses" explores the fascinating world of sensory perception, revealing how sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell shape our understanding of reality. This book delves into the biological mechanisms and psychological processes behind how we perceive the world and how these senses protect us from danger. For instance, our senses aren't just passive receivers of information; they actively interpret stimuli based on past experiences, making us susceptible to sensory illusions. The book traces the evolution of our understanding of the senses, from philosophical inquiries to modern neuroscience, emphasizing the brain's active role in shaping our perceptions.

 
Each sense is explored in detail, starting with an overview of sensory perception and then diving into the anatomy, physiology, and neural pathways of each sense. Sight explores the eye and visual cortex, while sound investigates the mechanics of hearing. Touch delves into pressure, temperature, and pain, and taste and smell reveal how they create flavor and link to memory and emotion. This approach integrates biological and psychological dimensions, highlighting the adaptive functions of our senses and their vulnerability to distortion.

    "Cybersecurity: Safeguarding Your Digital World as a Cyber Sentinel" is an in-depth guide to managing the complex environment of online threats in an era dominated by digital interactions and technical breakthroughs. This book is a vital resource for individuals, businesses, and cybersecurity experts who want to safeguard their digital assets and preserve the integrity of their information systems. 
     The book explores the vital significance of cybersecurity, stressing the dynamic threat environment that is defined by highly skilled assaults like phishing, ransomware, and advanced persistent threats (APTs). It highlights the CIA Triad's core values—Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability—which serve as the cornerstone of all cybersecurity initiatives. 
     With thorough instructions on how to set up multi-factor authentication (MFA), create strong passwords, encrypt data, and create safe backup plans, readers will obtain useful insights into safeguarding personal devices. The book also discusses responsible social media usage and secure browsing techniques to protect private data and prevent identity theft. 
     The book provides firms with detailed methods for creating strong cybersecurity frameworks, including staff training, risk assessment, policy creation, and incident response planning. It looks at how important network security necessities like intrusion detection systems (IDS) and firewalls are for safeguarding organizational infrastructure. 
     The potential of emerging technologies like blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) to improve cybersecurity protocols is explored, and talks about continuous learning emphasize the value of remaining up to date on the most recent developments and dangers in the industry.

    In this exploration of the concept of the gene, Jonathan Slack looks at the discovery, nature, and role of genes in both evolution and development. Explaining the nature of genetic variation in the human population, how hereditary factors were identified as molecules of DNA, and how certain specific mutations can lead to disease, Slack highlights how DNA variants are used to trace human ancestry and migration, and can also be used by forensic scientists to identify individuals in crime. Slack also explores issues such as the role of genetic heritability and IQ as well as the changes that occur in the genes of populations during evolution. 
     
     
     
    An ideal guide for anyone curious about what genes are and how genetics can be put to use, this Very Short Introduction demonstrates the ways in which the gene concept has been understood and used by molecular biologists, population biologists, and social scientists around the world.

    Subatomic physics is the branch of physics that studies the fundamental particles and forces that constitute the universe at the smallest scales. It explores the nature of matter and energy at the level of atomic nuclei and beyond, delving into the complex interactions that govern the behavior of elementary particles. The study of subatomic physics emerged from the broader field of nuclear physics, which initially focused on the structure and properties of atomic nuclei. Over time, discoveries of new particles and interactions led to the expansion of the field into what is now known as particle physics. 
    The foundation of subatomic physics was laid with the discovery of the electron by J.J. Thomson in 1897, which provided the first evidence that atoms were composed of smaller constituent particles. This was followed by the discovery of the proton by Ernest Rutherford in 1917 and the neutron by James Chadwick in 1932, establishing the basic structure of the atomic nucleus. The development of quantum mechanics in the early 20th century provided a theoretical framework for understanding the behavior of these particles, revealing that their properties could only be accurately described through probabilistic wave functions and discrete energy levels. 
    In the mid-20th century, the discovery of a wide variety of new particles, including mesons, baryons, and leptons, suggested that protons and neutrons themselves were composed of more fundamental constituents. This led to the development of the quark model by Murray Gell-Mann and George Zweig in 1964, which proposed that protons and neutrons are made up of combinations of quarks held together by the strong nuclear force, mediated by gluons. The quark model became a central component of the Standard Model of particle physics, which describes the known elementary particles and the fundamental forces—excluding gravity—that govern their interactions.

    Concussion is one of the most common neurological conditions, with many people having experienced at least one concussion within a lifetime. Concussion has been the focus of great media attention which has brought awareness to this important health issue. While most have heard about athletes and concussions, these injuries can occur at any age and can have many causes such as car accidents and falls. 
     
     
     
    In Navigating the Challenges of Concussion, expert clinicians and researchers in the fields of neurology and neuropsychology teamed together to provide up-to-date and evidence-based information for patients and families affected by concussion or those at increased risk of sustaining concussions. Topics covered include how concussion is different from other forms of brain injury, what to expect after a concussion, and what to do if symptoms are persisting. The authors explore extensively the common misconceptions around the treatment of concussion, and instead offer evidence-based guidance to follow instead. Special considerations for children and students, athletes, employees, military personnel, and older adults are discussed. Patient stories are included throughout which highlight some of the experiences that patients with concussion may face and may relate to their own concussion journey.
