In a compelling new analysis, Dr. T. Colin Campbell, coauthor of The China Study and author of the New York Times bestselling follow-up, Whole, brings to light a series of first-hand experiences that starkly demonstrate how corporate influence in academia, government and the media determines—and sometimes actively suppresses—public access to nutrition research.

Наблюдая за холощеными самцами домашних животных, евнухами при императорских гаремах Древнего Китая и певцами-кастратами в Италии XVIII века, люди понимали, что типично мужские особенности физиологии и поведения определяются наличием семенников, иначе известных как яички. Со временем наука выяснила, что именно эти железы — основной источник тестостерона, главного мужского гормона. У кого больше кадык, ниже голос и волосатее грудь? У кого выше показатели физического насилия, острее стремление к привилегированному статусу и неутолимее желание иметь множество сексуальных партнеров?

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.

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?
