Sinopse

"The Brain Code" embarks on a journey to understand the complex neural networks and neuronal communication that underpin intelligence, decision-making, and consciousness. It argues that deciphering the brain's code is fundamental to unlocking the biological basis of thought and behavior. The book bridges molecular neuroscience and cognitive psychology, offering a framework for interpreting brain activity, emphasizing how neurons interact to form complex networks that drive cognitive functions. For example, understanding synaptic plasticity can reveal how our brains adapt and learn from new experiences. 

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with the fundamental building blocks of the brain, neurons and synapses, and advancing to explore various brain regions and their specific functions, such as sensory processing and motor control. It delves into how the brain processes information, examining neural circuits involved in perception, memory, and decision-making. Supported by neurophysiology, neuroimaging, and computational neuroscience research, "The Brain Code" provides a cohesive framework for understanding brain function at multiple levels, making it valuable for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the biological basis of thought.

Cosmology - Cosmic Inflation...

Arnoud Varens

Welcome to a journey through the depths of space and time, a voyage into the heart of the cosmos, and an exploration of the most profound mysteries our universe holds. This is a book about cosmology—a science that unveils the grandeur of the universe, its history, its structure, and its deepest secrets. It's a journey through the vast expanses of space, where galaxies collide, stars are born and die, and black holes lurk in cosmic shadows. But it's also a journey through the frontiers of human knowledge and imagination, where the quantum world meets the cosmic expanse.
In these pages, we'll embark on an odyssey to understand the universe from its earliest moments to its potential far-off future. We'll delve into the mind-bending concept of cosmic inflation, a theory that suggests the universe underwent a rapid expansion in the tiniest fraction of a second after its birth, and explore the idea that our universe might be just one of countless others within a vast multiverse.
But our journey doesn't stop there. We'll also peer into the quantum world, where the ordinary rules of reality break down, and delve into the intriguing notion of parallel universes—multiple worlds coexisting alongside our own, each with its own unique history and future.
Are we alone in the cosmos, or is life a common occurrence throughout the universe? What is the purpose of our existence in this vast cosmic tapestry?
As we embark on this cosmic adventure, keep in mind that you don't need to be an astrophysicist or a quantum physicist to join us. This journey is for anyone with a sense of wonder and curiosity about the universe and our place in it. Whether you're a seasoned science enthusiast or someone encountering these concepts for the first time, we'll navigate the cosmos together, unraveling its mysteries one chapter at a time.

The Anatomy of Deception -...

Sara E. Gorman

In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, trust in the healthcare system seems to be at an all-time low. Conspiracy theories are now mainstream, and distrust of government health agencies is common among private citizens. Yet many of those same individuals still profess trust in their doctors. What, then, is driving the general mistrust in medicine, and how can the public's faith be restored? 
 
 
 
The Anatomy of Deception investigates the cause behind this seeming uptick in distrust by tracing the unexpected connection between medical mistrust and the move toward far right ideology in the United States. Drawing on personal qualitative research and interviews, health writer and expert Sara Gorman challenges traditional concepts of medical mistrust and argues that the loss of institutional trust in American health care signals a larger breakdown in democracy as a whole. In six short chapters, Gorman advances the idea of medical mistrust not as a byproduct of personal or historical abuses but as a direct result of bias, miscommunication, and lack of access that has slowly eroded trust in the public health system over time. She argues that we can build back trust in medicine through investments in health equity as a first step towards healing the schisms present in modern American society.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

Historically, technological disruptions have always been met with fear and skepticism, from the Industrial Revolution to the advent of the internet. Just as mechanized farming displaced manual labor, and the web transformed commerce, AI’s presence is beginning to impact every field imaginable. However, unlike previous innovations, AI doesn’t just replace repetitive or physical tasks; it extends to cognitive functions as well. This makes the effects of AI’s integration into the workplace even more striking. Professions that once seemed immune to automation—such as law, medicine, and education—are now seeing AI-driven tools that assist or even replace human decision-making.
The speed at which AI is changing the workforce is staggering. The rapid adoption of AI technologies has created both opportunities and challenges. While many industries have embraced AI to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and drive innovation, others are grappling with the consequences of job displacement. The automation of manual labor, for instance, has led to job losses in sectors like manufacturing and logistics, as machines now perform tasks faster and more accurately than humans ever could.
Yet, the story is not entirely one of doom and gloom. AI is also fostering job creation. As businesses implement AI technologies, new industries are emerging, and jobs that didn’t exist before are becoming critical. Roles in AI development, ethics, data analysis, and cybersecurity are growing rapidly. Additionally, AI is creating hybrid jobs where workers must leverage both human creativity and machine intelligence to drive innovation.

The New Era of Space Stations

Martin K. Ettington

We are at an exciting threshold for the development and deployment of private space stations and more advanced designs from various countries. This trend shows how quickly space technologies are developing.The advancements in cheaper rockets to carry more payloads into Earth’s orbit in a less costly manner is another trend which is supporting the development of these new space stations and space transportation options.The last few years a lot of companies and governments are making plans to develop and deploy a variety of space stations and moon bases. This seems like to good time to update everyone with what are these latest plans, space technologies, transportation options and more.I’ve tried to include all I could find on new space technologies and plans relevant to working and living in space.I wrote a book on Space in 2017 titled “Designing and Building Space Colonies” along with another ten space related books later on. So this is one of my favorite genres.
