Summary

Antarctic Meteorites explores how space rocks found in Antarctica provide unprecedented insights into our solar system's origins. These meteorites, fragments of asteroids and planets, are uniquely concentrated in Antarctica due to the continent's glacial dynamics and unique climate. The book elucidates how these "space rocks" inform planetary science and cosmochemistry, offering a deep dive into understanding planet formation.

 
The book begins by introducing meteorites and Antarctic geography, then progresses to explain why Antarctica is an ideal hunting ground, focusing on glacial processes and meteorite stranding surfaces. It then examines specific meteorite types like chondrites and iron meteorites, illustrating how they contribute to our understanding of the solar system's age and composition.

 
The book also details the history of meteorite collection, highlighting the scientific techniques and international collaborations involved. Antarctic Meteorites reveals that the icy continent acts like a natural collector, preserving these celestial objects for millennia. By analyzing these meteorites, scientists gain invaluable data, comparable to ground truth for remote observations of space. This organized and accessible approach makes the book an engaging read for anyone interested in Earth sciences, planetary science, and the mysteries of our solar system.

    Millions of people around the world have been diagnosed with incurable autoimmune diseases like Lupus. Debilitating conditions that make us tired, ill, and miserable. The only solution the medical industry offers are side-effect riddled maintenance drugs such as steroids and painkillers.Getting a formal diagnosis of Lupus is often a lengthy and challenging process. Many never get a medical confirmation of what is happening to their mind and body at all! Countless individuals live in constant pain and discomfort because they incorrectly assume all their health problems are the natural result of aging.Unfortunately, Craig Beck joined this ill-health demographic at the age of 48. After suffering months of severe symptoms, eventually, he too got handed the autoimmunity life sentence. However, rather than accept the hand as it was dealt. He remembered that the best medicine for a long and healthy life is found at the end of your fork, not the doctor's prescription pad.Craig decided to fall back on his research into natural medicine. He designed a diet and lifestyle that made inflammation the enemy and target. A process that would show amazing success at pushing Lupus firmly into near-permanent remission.In this special SLE addition of the Autoimmune Antidote, you will gain valuable insight into the new, natural approach that can help you prevent and maybe even reverse the life-limiting symptoms of Lupus and other inflammatory health problems.www.CraigBeck.com

    The Conscience of Care -...

    Pitched battles over abortion, puberty blockers, and assisted suicide have turned American healthcare into a legal minefield. Faced with mounting restrictions on medical practice, doctors and nurses who follow their conscience to provide standard treatments risk being fined, fired, or even imprisoned, while clinicians who conscientiously deny evidence-based care are shielded without condition from any such consequences. Dov Fox argues that by ceding the moral vocabulary of conscience to refusers alone, the lopsided law of medical conscience selectively burdens providers, drives vulnerable patients underground, and impoverishes the dynamic pluralism of medicine.The Conscience of Care lays bare the broken system of medical conscience and sets out to fix it. Fox canvases a landscape of contested services that include IVF, IUDs, opioids, psychedelics, organ transplants, and advance directives. He develops practical reforms that rebalance conscience protection by introducing measured safeguards for providers and scaling back the categorical refuge afforded to refusers. The Conscience of Care articulates a bold vision of medicine that reclaims the lost promise of conscience to bridge social divides on matters of life and death, impairment and identity.
