We know much about our history from bones and DNA, but these studies do not tell us about the characteristics that are not preserved in the fossil record―the fleshy parts and behaviors. Looking Down the Tree applies evolutionary principles to understand the history of our species and the pressures of natural selection which led to our unique appearance and behaviors. Cruzan draws upon evidence from fossils, genomics, phylogenetics, coalescence theory.

Hersenwetenschapper Eveline Crone is gefascineerd door de hersenen. Niet alleen om wat ze allemaal kunnen (gigantisch veel!), maar ook omdat werkelijk elk brein uniek is. Je hersenen worden immers gevormd door alle ervaringen die je tijdens je leven opdoet. In Een dag in ons brein kijken we 24 uur mee in de hoofden van de bewoners van de Bolstraat. Ze dealen met onzekerheden, afwijzing, ouder worden, puberen, piekeren en het voortdurende multitasken. Maar ze genieten ook van vriendschappen, verliefd zijn, samenwerken, lekker eten en avonturen.

Part mind-bending medical mystery—part cutting-edge science—Hidden Guests uncovers the astonishing phenomenon of microchimerism: the presence of foreign cells inside our own bodies. The incredible story of how those cells got there—and what they do once they arrive—might change everything we know about the immune system, lineage, and identity.

All of life is profoundly shaped by the daily, monthly, and yearly cycles of our planet, and all creatures have internal timekeeping systems that rely on cues from the surrounding environment. With modern technology, we are changing our environments—and by proxy, the ecosystems around us—to override these innate rhythms of life. But at what cost? Life in Sync reveals how Earth’s rotations shape our biology, what human sleep cycles looked like before the advent of artificial light, and why technology can’t free us from the constraints of our circadian clocks.
