Sinopse

Natural Beats Synthetic explores the hidden dangers lurking in our laundry detergents, questioning whether "eco-friendly" labels truly guarantee safety for us and the environment. Focusing on detergent ingredients, the book dives into the potential health risks, such as allergens and endocrine disruptors, linked to common chemicals found in both synthetic and some eco-labeled detergents. It also investigates the environmental impact, emphasizing biodegradability and aquatic toxicity, revealing how these everyday products contribute to water pollution.

 
The book presents a comprehensive ingredient analysis, moving from an introduction to detergent chemistry to examining health impacts and environmental fates in dedicated sections. It compares specific eco-detergent formulations against conventional options using safety data and independent reports. This approach empowers consumers to critically evaluate eco-labels and ingredient lists, making informed purchasing decisions.

 
Ultimately, Natural Beats Synthetic encourages a discerning approach to consumer science, urging readers to look beyond marketing claims and assess the real-world impact of their detergent choices. By presenting scientific evidence and practical recommendations, the book bridges the gap between advertising and reality, enabling informed decisions that benefit both personal health and the environment.

    Dr. David Sandberg, an internationally renown pediatric neurosurgeon, combines his deep scientific and medical knowledge with raw emotion and unforgettably powerful stories of courage and love. The brain is the most complicated and perplexing of our organs, and it is also the one that makes us human. When it comes to a child's brain, the hearts of those who love them become inextricably linked to that story. 
     
     
     
    In Brain and Heart, Dr. Sandberg describes the joy, heartbreak, uncertainty, and physical and emotional challenges that come with performing brain surgery on children. While most medical memoirs focus largely on the patient perspective, Dr. Sandberg allows listeners access to his private thoughts when making agonizing decisions. 
     
     
     
    A father himself, Dr. Sandberg understands deeply how every one of his patients is an entire world, and his devotion to his patients and his work shines through. We follow him as he finds his way to neurosurgery as a young doctor through to his most heartbreaking cases and greatest triumphs. We also travel with him to underserved countries, where lifesaving surgeries that are common here are almost nonexistent, and Dr. Sandberg shares the stories of the dedicated doctors and surgeons trying to enact change. Brain and Heart is an unforgettable book that will strengthen our sense of compassion and hope.

    Bad Nature - How Rat Control...

    Offers insights into the social and cultural implications of humans’ relationships with rats and the natural world. Apart from the occasional pet owner who has rats, most people regard rats as disease-carrying nocturnal pests, scurrying around dumpsters and dragging slices of pizza through New York City subways. Since rats are seemingly omnipresent in human life, why do we harbor such negative feelings about them, and why are they among the creatures most frequently targeted for systematic extermination?In Bad Nature, sociologist Andrew McCumber draws out the cultural underpinnings of rat extermination across three countries and two continents. Drawing from ethnographic, interview, and textual data from the frigid prairie of Alberta, Canada; the heart of downtown Los Angeles, California; and the iconic Galápagos Islands of Ecuador, McCumber studies how humans have sought to suppress and exterminate rat populations in a variety of environmental, social, and political situations. He shows how, in these disparate locations, rat control is a social practice that draws and clarifies the spatial and symbolic boundaries between “good” and “bad” forms of nature. Rats are near the bottom of a symbolic hierarchy of species that places human life at the top, companion animals and majestic wildlife just below them, and the “invasive species” that call for systematic extermination at the very bottom. This hierarchy of living things that places rats at the bottom, McCumber argues, mirrors human systems of social inequalities and power dynamics.  Both original and engaging, Bad Nature urges readers to consider, when charting a just and sustainable future, where will the rats be placed in the worlds we envision?
