Beschreibung

In "Secrets of Wise Men, Chemists and Great Physicians," William K. David intricately weaves together the realms of alchemy, medicinal practices, and philosophical inquiry, presenting a compelling narrative that reveals the profound wisdom held by historical figures in science and medicine. The book employs a rich, lyrical prose style that reflects both the reverence for the past and the complexity of the historical context of the sciences. David blends rigorous research with storytelling, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the enigmatic lives of great thinkers from antiquity to the early modern period, exploring their ideologies and methods that once laid the groundwork for modern science. William K. David, a scholar with a deep-rooted passion for the history of science and medicine, draws from his academic background in both chemistry and philosophy to craft this engaging exploration. His research has often focused on how ancient practices inform contemporary scientific thought, an interest that undoubtedly influenced his decision to highlight the interconnectedness of these seemingly disparate fields in his writing. "Secrets of Wise Men, Chemists and Great Physicians" is a must-read for anyone interested in the philosophical underpinnings of science and the enduring legacy of past scholars. David'Äôs insightful analysis not only enriches our understanding of these figures but also invites contemporary readers to reflect on the ethics and implications of scientific inquiry today.

    After Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin dropped out of college and launched Bitcoin Magazine, he wrote the Ethereum white paper, which proposed an open source protocol that would take what Bitcoin did for money and do it for everything else: contracts, social networks, and sharing economies. Now, less than a decade later, his idea is valued at about half a trillion dollars, and it is the foundation for the weird new world of NFT artworks, virtual real estate, and decentralized autonomous organizations. 
     
     
     
    This book is a collection of essays including "On Free Speech," which creates a whole new standard for free speech and how to protect it;  "Prediction Markets: Tales from the Election," in which Buterin bets on the Trump-Biden election before and after it was decided, and how the prediction markets help explain the political situation today where so many believe Trump won; and the last essay in the book, "Crypto Cities," where Buterin observes the beginnings already in motion of a future where cities governed through blockchain better serve the public good than governing political institutions do today. 
     
     
      
    Understanding and engaging with Buterin's ideas will be of growing importance as the consequences of his invention continue to unfold and inspire debate worldwide.

    "Timely." Booklist 
    When Nina Jankowicz's first book on online disinformation was profiled in The New Yorker, she expected attention but not an avalanche of abuse and harassment, predominantly from men, online. 
    All women in politics, journalism and academia now face untold levels of harassment and abuse in online spaces. Together with the world's leading extremism researchers, Jankowicz wrote one of the definitive reports on this troubling phenomenon. 
    Drawing on rigorous research into the treatment of Kamala Harris - the first woman vice-president - and other political and public figures, Nina also uses her own experiences to provide a step-by-step plan for dealing with harassment, abuse, doxing and disinformation in online spaces. 
    The result is a must-read for researchers, journalists and all women with a profile in the online space.

    The Curious History of the Heart...

    For much of recorded history, people considered the heart to be the most important organ in the body. In cultures around the world, the heart—not the brain—was believed to be the location of intelligence, memory, emotion, and the soul. Over time, views on the purpose of the heart have transformed. Modern medicine and science dismissed what was once the king of the organs as a mere blood pump subservient to the brain, yet the heart remains a potent symbol of love and health and an important part of our cultural iconography. 
     
     
     
    This book traces the evolution of our understanding of the heart from the dawn of civilization to the present. Vincent M. Figueredo—an accomplished cardiologist and expert on the history of the human heart—explores the role and significance of the heart in art, culture, religion, philosophy, and science across time and place. He examines how the heart really works, its many meanings in our emotional and daily lives, and what cutting-edge science is teaching us about this remarkable organ. Figueredo considers the science of heart disease, recent advancements in heart therapies, and what the future may hold. He highlights the emerging field of neurocardiology, which has found evidence of a "heart-brain connection" in mental and physical health, suggesting that ancient views hold more truth than moderns suspect.
