  Discordance - The Troubled...

  The troubled history of the Hubble constant told in an authoritative, comprehensible, and entertaining manner 
    
  In 1927 Georges Lemaître argued that our universe is expanding, a conclusion rendered more startling by the astronomical data that backed it up, presented two years later by Edwin Hubble. The speed of this expansion is governed by Hubble's constant, and Discordance tells its troubled history. 
    
  This unpredictable and fascinating story begins with the first tentative steps to measure the distances to nearby stars and galaxies. It traces the extraordinary interplay between cosmological theory and astronomical observation which has given us the standard Big Bang theory. It was not all plain sailing, and the narrative takes us through the discovery of dark matter, the Hubble Wars of the 1970s, the invention of cosmic inflation, and other crucial scientific moments. Further satellite missions were expected to add to the clarity of our measurements. But from about 2009 onward, the results began to diverge. This is the Hubble tension and perhaps even a crisis.  
    
  Jim Baggott clearly and entertainingly guides the reader through this gripping scientific voyage—one littered with crises of confidence, astonishing discoveries, and extraordinary personalities—which still continues today. 
    
  "Accessible, highly detailed and demanding—and therefore highly rewarding— … Baggott's well-researched work will be of as much interest to astronomers and physicists as it is to lay readers fascinated by the mysteries of the Universe."— Helge Kragh, Nature

  A ticking biological clock shouldn't feel like a time bomb! Learn what you need to know about modern fertility to help take control of your reproductive future—from egg and embryo freezing to IVF, surrogacy, and beyond.  
  Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have, and 90 percent of them are gone by age 30. The eggs that remain will decline in both quantity and quality, making it increasingly difficult to become pregnant around the same time that many women are focused on finding a life partner, building their career, or both. But Jaime Knopman, MD, wants you to know that science has advanced, the world has transformed, and the choices available to us have changed too.

In Own Your Fertility, Dr. Knopman and coauthor Rebecca Raphael offer an accessible modern–day overview of how advancements in the field of fertility treatment have transformed the path to pregnancy, while also sounding the alarm that women in particular can—and should—take control of their reproduction. Whether you’re trying to get pregnant, thinking about having a baby in the future, or simply want to keep your options open, this book is your guide to all things reproductive planning, from egg and embryo freezing to IVF, sperm and egg donors, and surrogacy.

  The surprising, rich life of tree swallows in nesting season—with Heinrich’s beautiful illustrations and photographs—by the acclaimed naturalist. Heinrich is sparked one early spring day by a question: Why does a pair of swallows in a nest-box close to his Maine cabin show an unvarying preference for white feathers—not easily available nearby—as nest lining? He notices, too, the extreme aggressiveness of “his” swallows toward some other swallows of their own kind. And he wonders, given swallows’ reputation for feistiness, at the extraordinary tameness and close contact he experiences with his nesting birds. From the author of the beloved books Ravens in Winter and A Naturalist at Large, this richly engaging view of the lives of wild birds, as always with Heinrich, yields “marvelous, mind-altering” insight and discoveries. —Los Angeles Times Narrator Rick Adamson is proud to have presented several titles from author Bernd Heinrich. He is an Audie Award winner for his voicing of IN A HEARTBEAT, from the authors of the true story that became the film THE BLIND SIDE.  Around NYC and his home studio in New Jersey, he has worked in commercials, corporate and medical media, as well as educational content worldwide, for more than thirty years.

  Clinical Immunology -...

  Immunology is the branch of biomedical science that focuses on the study of the immune system, its functions, and the role it plays in protecting the body from pathogens and other harmful invaders. It encompasses the recognition of foreign molecules and the activation of mechanisms to neutralize or eliminate these threats, while maintaining tolerance to self-tissues. Immunology is an evolving field that links various disciplines, including microbiology, genetics, and molecular biology, in understanding how the body defends itself against diseases. 
  The immune system is a complex network of cells, proteins, and organs that work together to provide protection against infections and malignancies. It is composed of two major arms: innate and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity is the first line of defense, offering a rapid but non-specific response to a wide range of pathogens. In contrast, adaptive immunity is more specialized, offering a delayed but highly specific response to pathogens, with the ability to "remember" previous encounters and respond more effectively in the future. 
  Historically, the field of immunology has been shaped by significant discoveries that have helped define the immune system's components and their roles. The work of pioneers such as Louis Pasteur, Edward Jenner, and Robert Koch laid the foundation for our understanding of immunity, particularly in relation to vaccines and infectious diseases. As research advanced, immunology expanded into areas like autoimmunity, immunodeficiencies, and cancer immunology, offering new insights into disease mechanisms and therapeutic strategies.
