Dr. Catherine Kleier invites us to open our eyes to the phenomenal world of plant life and to the process she calls “Natura Revelata”, the joy of celebrating and learning from the secrets of nature. As Dr. Kleier shares her knowledge with contagious excitement for her subject, she emphasizes the middle ground: Instead of focusing on cell microbiology or the study of ecosystems and habitats, she stresses the basic biology, function, and the amazing adaptations of the plants we see all around us.

Systems biology came about as growing numbers of engineers and scientists from other fields created algorithms which supported the analysis of biological data in incredible quantities. Whereas biologists of the past had been forced to study one item or aspect at a time, due to technical and biological limitations, it suddenly became possible to study biological phenomena within their natural contexts. 

For centuries, poets and philosophers extolled the benefits of a walk in the woods: Beethoven drew inspiration from rocks and trees; Wordsworth composed while tromping over the heath; Nikola Tesla conceived the electric motor while visiting a park. Intrigued by our storied renewal in the natural world, Florence Williams sets out to uncover the science behind nature's positive effects on the brain.

先日、とある雑誌の企画で、いわゆる「お掃除ロボット」を使わせていただく機会がありました。正直、これまであまり必要性を感じたことはなかったのですが、使ってみると非常に面白かった。 ただ、僕の自宅で使い続けるにはひとつだけ、大問題がありました。それはお掃除ロボットが部屋を動き回るたびに、インコの「おもち」が、引きつけを起こしそうなぐらいに怖がってしまうということです。お掃除ロボットも捨て難いけれど、「おもち」はまぁ義理のある以前からの同居人（鳥）ですからね。残念ながら我が家で使い続けるのは不可能！　ということになり、大阪出張のついでに、母親に譲ることにしました。 私の母親も80歳を超えていて、僕としては「お掃除ロボットなんて、使い方わかるのかなぁ？」と半信半疑だったんですが、ふたを開ければすごく喜んでくれました。よく考えてみればうちの母親は掃除や洗濯といった家事が大の苦手。彼女にとっては、「勝手に掃除をしてくれるロボット」というのは、文字通り夢のような家電！　ということなのでしょう。(本文より） 名越康文の生きるための対話（dialogue）はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/nakoshi.html
