Sinopsis

Floodplain Formation explores the creation and evolution of floodplains, the fertile lands bordering rivers, emphasizing their ecological and human significance. Delving into fluvial geomorphology and hydrology, the book reveals how sediment transport and river dynamics shape these landscapes. Intriguingly, floodplains support disproportionately high biodiversity and provide critical ecosystem services like floodwater storage. For millennia, human societies have relied on floodplains for agriculture, yet this interaction also brings challenges like increased flood risk. The book systematically progresses from basic concepts of river dynamics to examining specific floodplain formation processes, such as overbank flooding. It then explores ecological functions, human impacts, and sustainable management strategies. By integrating diverse data sources, it links floodplain dynamics to broader environmental challenges, like climate change, and considers human impact through agriculture, urbanization, and flood control structures. This approach provides a holistic understanding essential for anyone interested in the Earth Sciences and sustainable management of these vital environments.

    Brain research has been accelerating rapidly in recent decades, but the translation of our many discoveries into treatments and cures for brain disorders has not happened as many expected. We do not have cures for the vast majority of brain illnesses, and many medications we have to treat the brain are derived from drugs produced in the 1950s—before we knew much about the brain at all. Tackling brain disorders is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity today. What will it take to overcome it? Nicole Rust takes listeners along on her journey to answer this question. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on decades of experience, Rust reflects on how far we have come in our quest to unlock the secrets of the brain and what remains to be discovered. She shows us that treating a brain disorder is more like redirecting a hurricane than fixing a domino chain of cause and effect, arguing that only once we embrace the idea of the brain as a complex system do we have any hope of finding cures. Rust profiles the pioneering ideas about the brain that are driving research at the cutting edge to illuminate exactly how much we know about disorders—and what it will take to eradicate these scourges. 
     
     
     
    Elusive Cures sheds light on one of the most daunting challenges confronted by science while offering hope for revolutionary new treatments and cures for the brain.

    An adventure into the world of anatomy and dissection. 
    Since I was a child, I’ve been interested in dead bodies. When I was eight years old, I dug up the remains of my pet budgie Zazbut. He had been buried for about eight weeks in a patch of grass outside our house in Dasmarinas, a fortified village in Manila, in the Philippines. 
     
    ‘The first exhumation was the beginning of my intrigue with death, which has persisted. As a journalist, I’ve written about graveyards, funerals and death doulas. I always visit the local cemetery wherever I am in the world. But one thing that has largely been hidden from me in this death trip is the dead body. 
     
    Dissection might not be a normal topic to contemplate but when both your paternal grandparents donate their bodies to science it does intermittently cross your mind. 
     
    This is the story of how Jackie Dent’s grandparents - Ruby and Julie - gave their bodies to science when they died. No one in her family seems to know why, or what really happened with their bodies afterwards. Were they avid science buffs? Was it to save on cremation costs? How do scientists tackle the practicalities and ethics of cutting up the dead for research? And who are body donors generally? 
      
    Weaving the personal with the history of anatomy and the dissected, Jackie Dent explores the world of whole-body donation — all the while looking for answers as to what happened to her grandparents.
