Sinossi

Endocrine System offers a comprehensive exploration of hormonal regulation, crucial for understanding overall health and the body's complex functions like metabolism and reproduction. This book examines the major endocrine glands, such as the pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, and pancreas, detailing how hormones act as chemical messengers. 

 
Readers will discover how these hormones influence everything from energy levels and weight to mood and reproductive capability, highlighting the critical role of the endocrine system in maintaining homeostasis. The book emphasizes the delicate interplay between hormones and their target tissues, illustrating how disruptions in this balance can lead to disease. Its unique value lies in its balanced perspective, advocating for early detection and proactive management of hormonal imbalances. 

 
Beginning with an introduction to hormone synthesis and action, the book progresses through individual glands, reproductive functions, clinical aspects, and emerging therapies. This accessible guide uses scientific literature, clinical studies, and case examples to support its findings. By bridging biology with health and fitness, it reveals connections to neuroscience, immunology, and metabolism, showcasing the endocrine system's pivotal role in responding to environmental challenges and maintaining well-being.

    This book combo brings the prehistoric world to life through the study of ancient plants, animals, and climates. This compelling volume reveals how Earth’s long and complex history has shaped life as we know it—and how fossils, sediments, and ice cores serve as the time machines of science. 
    Begin with Paleobotany, the study of fossilized plants, and uncover how forests once grew where deserts now lie. Through preserved leaves, pollen, and wood, scientists reconstruct past ecosystems, trace plant evolution, and discover how vegetation adapted to shifting environments over millions of years. 
    Next, delve into Paleozoology, which focuses on the remains of ancient animals—from dinosaurs and mammoths to tiny marine creatures. Learn how skeletal remains, footprints, and fossilized behavior reveal evolutionary changes, predator-prey relationships, extinction events, and the rise of new species over geological time. 
    Finally, explore Paleoclimatology, the science of past climates. By analyzing tree rings, ice cores, and ocean sediments, researchers piece together Earth’s shifting temperatures, atmospheric conditions, and major climate events. This field is essential for understanding long-term climate cycles and their influence on both extinction and evolution. 
    Together, these disciplines create a vivid picture of Earth’s ancient biosphere, showing how life, land, and climate have evolved in tandem over hundreds of millions of years. Ideal for students, educators, and history-of-science enthusiasts, this volume opens a window into the deep past and its relevance to today’s environmental challenges.

    America was built on white pine. From the 1600s through the Civil War and beyond, it was used to build the nation's ships and houses, barns, and bridges. Yet this popularity came at a cost: by the end of the nineteenth century, clear cutting had decimated much of America's white pine forests. In White Pine, ecologist and writer John Pastor takes listeners on walk through history, connecting the white pine forests that remain today to a legacy of destruction and renewal. 
     
     
     
    Since the clear-cutting era, naturalists, foresters, and scientists have taken up the quest to restore the great white pine forests. White Pine follows this centuries-long endeavor, illuminating how the efforts shaped Americans' understanding of key scientific ideas, from forest succession to the importance of fire. Pastor shows us why restoring the vitality of these forests has not been simple: a host of other creatures depend on white pine and white pine depends on them. In weaving together cultural and natural history, White Pine celebrates the way humans are connected to the forest—and to the larger natural world. 
     
     
     
    Today, white pine forests have begun to recover, but face the growing threat of climate change. White Pine shows us that hope for healthy forests lies in understanding the lessons of history, so that iconic species survives.

    As scientists probe deeper into the nature of reality, they are discovering that consciousness is at the root of everything. What we believed were the laws of physics and matter are really the archetypal laws of mind, and the condensation of consciousness that created our universe originated from a dimensionless point in the void known as the “Singularity” in physics and the “Monad” in math and philosophy. 
    In philosophy, the Monad is the single source of all things—the embedded matrix of both our present existence and all possible future incarnations. For theologians, it is the logos –the Word of God that created the world. In mathematics, the Monad is the root of all the numbers that describe Nature. In science, it is the Big Bang explosion of light and information from which our universe sprung forth. 
    By the late 20th century, an interdisciplinary science of Consciousness Studies emerged dedicated to solving the puzzle of consciousness and understanding the mysterious monadic origin of the universe. Most of the pieces to that puzzle are already in place, and we are just beginning to glimpse the overall picture. It’s not like anything we ever expected . . .
