Beschreibung

"Sounds Around" explores the fascinating world of sound, focusing on its physics, biological perception, and vital role in animal communication. It unveils how vibrations become sound waves, influencing survival and interaction across species. Did you know that sound is critical for many animals to detect danger, find mates, or navigate their environments? The book emphasizes that sound is a powerful tool for animals, essential for both basic survival and complex social interactions.

 
The book begins by explaining the fundamental properties of sound, such as frequency and amplitude, and how hearing mechanisms across species detect these vibrations. It highlights evolutionary adaptations that enhance sound detection and interpretation. The book's unique value lies in its interdisciplinary approach, connecting physics, biology, and animal behavior to reveal the delicate balance within ecosystems.

 
Progressing chapter by chapter, "Sounds Around" first builds foundational knowledge of sound physics and hearing anatomy. Subsequent sections detail how animals use sound for mating, predator warnings, and navigation, incorporating case studies and research from physiology, ecology, and zoology. The book culminates with a discussion on noise pollution's impact on animal communication and the practical applications of bioacoustics in conservation and technology.

    Flesh Made New: The Unnatural...

    The dazzling promise of stem cell medicine: does it work and will it save us? Two experts look at the hype 
      
    For decades, we've been anticipating the dawn of regenerative medicine. Again and again, we've been promised that stem cells will soon cure just about every ill imaginable. If not tomorrow, then the next day, or the day after that, and so on. We're still waiting. 
    This book is an antidote to hype and a salve to soothe the itch for stem-cell salvation. In it, Professor John Rasko, a leading physician-scientist, and writer-historian Carl Power take us on a wild historical tour of this scandal-prone field. They expose all the dirty little secrets that the hype merchants prefer to ignore - the blunders and setbacks, confusions and delusions, tricks and lies. You'll meet Alexis Carrel, who discovered how to cultivate cells in a test tube: celebrity surgeon, scientific genius and suspected Nazi sympathiser, he opened the field of modern cell science with an experiment so bogus it blocked the way forward for the next 50 years. You'll meet Don Thomas, who developed bone marrow transplantation - the first successful stem-cell therapy - but only after a miserable decade in which most of his patients died. Alongside true stem-cell pioneers, you'll meet charlatans who cooked their data and claimed fake cures - sometimes with fatal consequences. 
    Is there any good news? Which of the many promises of stem-cell research have been kept? And what of the future? Rasko and Power insist that we can only know where we're going if we have a sense of where we've been. Their study tears down the hype surrounding stem cells in order to reveal what's still worth hoping for.

    Paleozoic Era The: The History...

    The current view of science is that Earth is around 4.6 billion years old, and the first 4 billion years of its development are known as the Precambrian period. For the first billion years or so, there was no life in Earth. Then the first single-celled life-forms, early bacteria and algae, began to emerge. It’s unclear where they came from or even if they originated on this planet at all, but this gradual development continued until around four billion years ago when suddenly (in geological terms) more complex forms of life began to emerge.  
    	Scientists call this time of an explosion of new forms of life the Paleozoic Era, and it stretched from around 541 to 250 million years ago. In the oceans and then on land, new creatures and plants began to appear in bewildering variety, and by the end of this period, life on Earth had diversified into a myriad of complex forms that filled virtually every habitat and niche available in the seas and on the planet’s only continent, Pangea. 
    	The Precambrian Period is divided into three eons: the Hadean, the Archaean, and the Proterozoic. One layer of carbon in rocks that date to the Archaean Eon, found on islands west of Greenland, seems to have fossilized tracks that may have been left by some form of organic life, but scientists simply are not certain. The oldest confirmed remains of life date from the same eon and were found in rocks in Western Australia, which were found to contain fossilized bacteria estimated to be 3.46 billion years old. It seems likely that there were thousands, perhaps even millions of forms of life in these early periods, and most seem to have been microscopic in size and very simple in developmental terms.
