  • Endocrinology - The Body's Chemical Messengers Hormones and Health - cover

    Endocrinology - The Body's...

    The endocrine system is a complex network of glands and organs that produce, regulate, and secrete hormones—chemical messengers that influence nearly every physiological process in the body. These hormones control metabolism, growth and development, reproduction, mood, and overall homeostasis. Unlike the nervous system, which relies on rapid electrical signals, the endocrine system operates through the bloodstream, allowing hormones to exert long-lasting effects on target organs and tissues. 
The endocrine system consists of several major glands, each responsible for specific hormone production. The hypothalamus, often referred to as the control center, regulates hormonal signals and maintains communication between the nervous and endocrine systems. It directs the pituitary gland, known as the "master gland," to release hormones that influence other endocrine organs. The thyroid gland regulates metabolism through thyroid hormones, while the parathyroid glands control calcium levels in the blood. The adrenal glands produce cortisol and adrenaline, essential for stress response and energy regulation. The pancreas, an organ with both endocrine and exocrine functions, plays a crucial role in blood sugar regulation through insulin and glucagon secretion. The gonads—testes in males and ovaries in females—produce sex hormones that govern reproductive functions and secondary sexual characteristics. Additionally, the pineal gland regulates sleep-wake cycles through melatonin production.

    From the cup of coffee that jumpstarts the day to dangerously addictive drugs, the recreational use of plants with psychoactive properties has a long history among humans.But, as with many things, it turns out that other animals got there first.From parrots to primates, consuming medicinal chemicals is an instinctive behavior that helps countless organisms fight infection and treat disease. But the similarities don't end there: Like us, many creatures also consume substances that have no apparent benefit . . . except for inducing intoxication. In fact, animals have been using drugs for recreational purposes since prehistoric times. We may even have animals to thank for the idea—legend says that coffee was discovered by observing the behavior of goats that had eaten it. In his previous book, Strange Survivors, author and biologist Oné R. Pagán introduced readers to some of the truly bizarre strategies animals use to survive in the cutthroat world of natural selection. Now, in Drunk Flies and Stoned Dolphins, he sheds light on the surprising cravings they indulge when it's time to unwind. In this book, you'll get an eye-opening glimpse into the mind-altering behavior of the non-human members of the animal kingdom, spanning insects to elephants—including the dolphin species that apparently likes to pass around an intoxicating pufferfish as if they were sharing a joint. Combining fascinating science with humor and enthusiasm, Pagán's latest is full of the kind of unforgettable stories and odd facts that you'll find yourself repeating to everyone you meet. From fruit fly happy hour to the evolutionary reasons behind nature's drugs, Drunk Flies and Stoned Dolphins takes you on a trip through the colorful world of animal intoxication—and along the way, explores what this science reveals about the surprising connections between all the world's creatures.

    In Purified, veteran journalist Peter Annin shows that wastewater has become a surprising weapon in America's war against water scarcity. Annin probes deep into the water reuse movement in five water-strapped states—California, Texas, Virginia, Nevada, and Florida. He drinks beer made from purified sewage, visits communities where purified sewage came to the rescue, and examines how one of the nation's largest wastewater plants hopes to recycle one hundred percent of its wastewater by 2035. At each stop, listeners come face to face with the people who are struggling for, and against, recycled water. While the current filtration technology transforms sewage into something akin to distilled water—free of chemicals and safe to drink—water recycling's challenge isn't technology. It's terminology. Concerns about communities being used as "guinea pigs," sensationalist media coverage, and taglines like "toilet to tap" have repeatedly crippled water recycling efforts. Potable water recycling has become the hottest frontier in the race for expanded water supply options. But can public opinion turn in time to avoid the worst consequences? Purified's fast-paced narrative cuts through the fearmongering and misinformation to make the case that recycled water is direly needed in the climate-change era. Water cannot be taken for granted anymore—and that includes sewage.
