  Odontology - Teeth and Their...

  Teeth have played a crucial role in the survival and adaptation of countless species throughout history. Their development and evolution provide insight into the dietary habits, environmental changes, and biological adaptations of various organisms, including humans. From primitive jawless fish to modern mammals, the transformation of teeth reflects an ongoing evolutionary process shaped by natural selection and functional necessity. 
  The earliest evidence of tooth-like structures dates back over 500 million years to the era of jawless fish. These ancient creatures possessed dermal denticles—small, tooth-like scales covering their bodies—that provided protection and may have eventually contributed to the formation of true teeth. As vertebrates evolved, the emergence of jaws revolutionized feeding strategies, allowing for more efficient food consumption and leading to the diversification of teeth in different species. 
  In early jawed fish, known as placoderms, teeth were not yet distinct from the jawbone but were integrated into it. Over time, evolutionary pressures favored the development of separate, more specialized teeth. This adaptation enabled vertebrates to exploit a wider range of food sources, leading to increased survival and reproduction. With the rise of sharks and bony fish, teeth became more complex, capable of being replaced throughout an organism’s life, a trait still seen in many species today.

  Perimeter defenses guarding your network aren't as secure as you might think. Hosts behind the firewall have no defenses of their own, so when a host in the "trusted" zone is breached, access to your data center is not far behind. This practical book introduces you to the zero trust model, a method that treats all hosts as if they're internet-facing, and considers the entire network to be compromised and hostile. 
   
   
   
  In this updated edition, the authors show you how zero trust lets you focus on building strong authentication, authorization, and encryption throughout, while providing compartmentalized access and better operational agility. You'll learn the architecture of a zero trust network, including how to build one using currently available technology. 
   
   
   
  You'll also explore fundamental concepts of a zero trust network, including trust engine, policy engine, and context aware agents; discover how this model embeds security within the system's operation, rather than layering it on top; use existing technology to establish trust among the actors in a network; migrate from a perimeter-based network to a zero trust network in production; examine case studies that provide insights into various organizations' zero trust journeys; and learn about the various zero trust architectures, standards, and frameworks.

  Then I Am Myself the World -...

  The world's leading investigator of consciousness argues that by understanding what consciousness does—cause change in the world—we can understand its origins and its future 
   
   
   
  In Then I Am Myself the World, Christof Koch explores the only thing we directly experience: consciousness. At the book's heart is integrated-information theory, the idea that the essence of consciousness is the ability to exert causal power over itself, to be an agent of change. Koch investigates the physical origins of consciousness in the brain and how this knowledge can be used to measure consciousness in natural and artificial systems. 
   
   
   
  Enabled by such tools, Koch reveals when and where consciousness exists, and uses that knowledge to confront major social and scientific questions: When does a fetus first become self-aware? Can psychedelic and mystical experiences transform lives? What happens to consciousness in near-death experiences? Why will generative AI ultimately be able to do the very thing we can do, yet never feel any of it? And do our experiences reveal a single, objective reality? 
   
   
   
  This is an essential book for anyone who seeks to understand ourselves and the future we are creating.
