Выдающийся нейробиолог Роберт Сапольски бросает вызов устоявшимся представлениям о свободе воли: он утверждает, что наше поведение предопределено биологическими и социальными факторами. Опираясь на современные научные данные, в том числе нейробиологии, генетики, квантовой механики, автор убедительно доказывает: на наши действия сильнейшим образом влияют и генетическая предрасположенность, и воспитание, и даже случайные события в жизни. В результате мы практически лишены настоящего выбора.

Qué son las superbacterias y por qué no estamos preparados para afrontarlas La resistencia a los antibióticos: la pandemia silenciosa a la que nos enfrentamos A lo largo de nuestra existencia los humanos hemos librado una batalla, a menudo a muerte, contra las bacterias. Enfermedades tan...

inguine gehören zu den beliebtesten Tieren auf dem Globus, ihre Fangemeinde ist riesig und ihr Abbild begegnet uns überall. Ihre auffällige Erscheinung hat offensichtlich etwas Unwiderstehliches: Sie tragen ein einprägsames schwarz-weißes Federkleid, können zwar nicht fliegen, aber haben einen liebenswert-komischen Watschelgang. Bergab rutschen sie gern auf dem Bauch. Unbeeindruckt von Schnee und Eis, Sturm und Kälte ziehen sie in denkbar unwirtlichen Regionen ihren Nachwuchs auf.

In a world where scientific progress accelerates faster than public understanding, few subjects provoke as much fear, fascination, and confusion as genetically modified organisms. Are GMOs a threat to nature, health, and human freedom—or a vital tool for feeding a growing population, protecting fragile ecosystems, and reducing the burden of pesticides? In this clear and uncompromising work, Boris Kriger cuts through the noise, myths, and political rhetoric to illuminate what genes truly are, how modification works, and why ordinary people struggle to separate evidence from anxiety.

Unlock the science of you-at-your-best with Powerhouse Peptides for Women Over 30! This beginner's guide pulls back the curtain on nature's most potent messengers — short chains of amino acids known as peptides — and shows you exactly how to harness their regenerative magic for radiant skin, lean muscle, balanced hormones, and boundless energy. I also discuss bioregulators, which are loved within the peptide community. And I go over what I consider the Four Key Pillars of Health.

Your cat is watching you right now. It knows your schedule, your footsteps, your moods. And you have no reliable way to know what it knows. For centuries, we have tried to communicate with animals by asking the wrong question: what are they thinking? In this bold, rigorous, and deeply original book, Boris Kriger argues that this question is not merely unanswerable—it is incoherent. The interior of any complex system, from a cat to a human brain to an AI chatbot, is permanently inaccessible. But the exterior—behavior—is observable, predictable, and measurable.

Symbiosis, the sustained and intimate associations between unrelated life forms, is now recognized as a ubiquitous phenomenon, one that has shaped evolution since the origin of life and that continues to affect all species. This overview of symbiosis starts with a quick history of relevant early discoveries and researchers, and considers why symbiosis was so long neglected as a respectable topic of biological research and why it was a controversial topic. Today, symbiosis is widely appreciated as being everywhere in nature and as a pervasive influence on ecological communities.

A compassionate, evidence-based look at pregnancy loss—how and why it happens, and why the assurances of the medical industry don't reflect the reality One of the most prevalent myths about human pregnancy is that of all possible outcomes, a baby is the most likely. Pregnancy Interrupted...

Growth and Decay of Coral Reefs: Fifty Years of Learning describes how coral reefs have alternately flourished and declined over the last fifty years and the dynamics of these changes. The study is based on recordings at thirty different locations along the Sudanese coast, visited by the author...

The question "what came first?" has shaped human thought since its earliest stirrings, from theological first principles to the search for base reality in simulation theory. This demand for ultimate origins appears so natural that it goes unnoticed, like air supporting breath without announcing itself. But what if this demand contains a hidden error? Boris Kriger's groundbreaking work argues that for certain closed hierarchical structures, the question of primary foundation is not merely unanswered—it is unanswerable.

For centuries, we have viewed viruses as simple parasites—mindless invaders to be fought and eradicated. But when SARS-CoV-2 swept across the globe, adapting with seeming precision to evade our defenses, a deeper question emerged: How do entities without brains, without consciousness, without any capacity for thought, achieve outcomes that appear so intelligent?

There has been so much focus on the real risk of animals going extinct that it’s easily overlooked just how many new species are still being discovered every year. In an age defined by environmental loss, the discovery of new species is a beacon of hope, proving there is still so much to learn about the natural world. Hidden Wonders by acclaimed naturalist David Alderton is a thrilling journey into the heart of modern zoological exploration. Every year, hundreds of new species are brought to light from the remotest corners of the planet.

How can we save the ocean? And how can the ocean save us? From protecting nesting sea turtles on the beaches of Sri Lanka and deep-sea diving in the icy waters of Antarctica to taking school children in England to see the sea for the first time, award-winning marine biologist Emily Cunningham...

If you're taking Introduction to Sciences courses or building knowledge for clinical practice, this bundle gives you everything you need.

A world normally hidden beneath equations and laboratory instruments unfolds here as a living, dynamic foundation of existence. This book reveals how tunneling, coherence, entanglement, and quantum uncertainty shape the deepest processes of biology—from photosynthesis and enzymatic catalysis to genetic variation, neural complexity, and the evolution of life itself.
