Epigenetics is the science of living DNA, charting the chemical pathways that spur DNA into action by turning genes on and off. While the Human Genome Project of the early 2000s was hailed as the key to understanding human heredity and disease, that historic effort was just the beginning. It has taken epigenetics to fill in the picture, explaining how the fixed code of our genome is implemented in countless living processes.

What is Western Civilization? According to Professor Noble, it is "much more than human and political geography," encompassing myriad forms of political and institutional structures - from monarchies to participatory republics - and its own traditions of political discourse. It involves choices about who gets to participate in any given society and the ways in which societies have resolved the tension between individual self-interest and the common good.

Join three literary scholars and award-winning professors as they introduce you to dozens of short masterpieces that you can finish - and engage with - in a day or less. Perfect for people with busy lives who still want to discover-or rediscover-just how transformative an act of reading can be, these 36 lectures range from short stories of fewer than 10 pages to novellas and novels of around 200 pages. Despite their short length, these works are powerful examinations of the same subjects and themes that longer "great books" discuss.

Language defines us as a species, placing humans head and shoulders above even the most proficient animal communicators. But it also beguiles us with its endless mysteries, allowing us to ponder why different languages emerged, why there isn't simply a single language, how languages change over time and whether that's good or bad, and how languages die out and become extinct.

あらすじ・解説
We’re living in a golden age of scientific breakthroughs and technological advancements. From the messenger RNA (mRNA) technology deployed in the COVID-19 vaccines to new research into the biology of lichens to new theories about the inner workings of black holes, the 21st century has given us an exciting new understanding of ourselves, our world, and our universe.
Now, you have the chance to dig into some of the most fascinating and important scientific advancements in recent years. Unexpected, consequential, and often counterintuitive, 12 Revolutionary Discoveries That Could Change Everything offers an inspiring introduction to science in the 21st century. Taught by Scientific American editor in chief Laura Helmuth, these eye-opening lectures will satiate even the most inquisitive mind.
Laura sets the stage with what we used to know—for example, how the solar system was formed, how exercise promoted weight loss, or what dinosaurs may have looked like. She then surveys recent scientific literature to challenge our understanding of the world. We might think of science as a linear process—something is discovered, and that discovery leads to new developments—yet new insights occasionally contradict previous beliefs and send us in new directions.
Indeed, the “discoveries that could change everything” are so important because they expand our knowledge or help us experience the world in even greater depth. In exploring these “paradigm shifts,” you’ll meet researchers from around the world, ranging from leaders in their fields to graduate students seeking to make their mark to ordinary naturalists with extraordinary abilities.
From the chemical makeup of ocean particles to the way the brain perceives the world, Laura takes you into the fields of neuroscience, botany, paleontology, oceanography, astrophysics, and much more. Rich in stories that will please scientists and laypeople alike, this course truly is an intellectual smorgasbord of scientific disciplines.
