يقدّم كتاب مبادئ علم الوراثة البشرية شرحًا مبسطًا لأسس علم الوراثة وكيفية انتقال الصفات الجينية بين الأجيال لدى الإنسان.

Nessa Carey’s THE EPIGENETICS REVOLUTION looks at how modern biology is rewriting our understanding of genetics, disease and inheritance. At the beginning of this century, enormous progress had been made in genetics. The Human Genome Project finished sequencing human DNA. It seemed it was only...

From the author of the acclaimed The Epigenetics Revolution comes another thrilling exploration of the cutting edge of human science. For decades after the structure of DNA was identified, scientists focused purely on genes, the regions of the genome that contain codes for the production of...

New updated and expanded edition of the groundbreaking book that ignited a firestorm in the scientific world with its radical approach to evolution Explains how past forms and behaviors of organisms determine those of similar organisms in the present through morphic resonance Reveals the...

According to an old joke, everyone knows that men and women are different... except social scientists. In A Billion Years of Sex Differences, evolutionary psychologist Steve Stewart-Williams tackles some of science's most controversial questions: How do men and women differ? Where do the...

Why can humans alone invent? In The Pattern Seekers, Cambridge University psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen makes a case that autism is as crucial to our creative and cultural history as the mastery of fire. Indeed, Baron-Cohen argues that autistic people have played a key role in human progress for 70,000 years, from the first tools to the digital revolution. How? Because the same genes that cause autism enable the pattern seeking that is essential to our species' inventiveness. 

Your genes respond to your thoughts, emotions, and energy. When researcher Dawson Church first published this claim in 2007, it was a visionary hypothesis. Two decades later, epigenetics has documented, in hundreds of peer-reviewed studies, that consciousness, emotion, and energy switch genes on and off and shape the molecular landscape of your health.

In The Threshold of Collective Intelligence, Peter Belter takes readers from Paleolithic Europe to Arctic wastelands, from the grandeur of imperial Rome to the cold logic of modern nuclear arsenals, following one question across deep time: what does it take for intelligence to stop dying locally and start becoming history?

The Restless Planet tells the story of the Earth across its full four-and-a-half-billion-year history—from the supernova that forged its atoms to the ice ages, mass extinctions, and long chain of contingencies that eventually produced us. Drawing on geology, biology, astronomy, and chemistry, Robert W. Jansen places the listening in each moment of deep time: breathing the air, feeling the ground, looking at a sky no human eye has ever seen.

Noi italiani ci raccontiamo, come altre nazioni moderne, di appartenere a un territorio ben definito, a una cultura coesa, a una storia lineare fatta di antenati che hanno vissuto per millenni nella nostra penisola comportandosi più o meno come continuiamo a fare noi oggi. Le innovazioni tecnologiche degli ultimi vent'anni, per esempio, ci hanno permesso di scoprire che la maggioranza dei nostri antenati neanche era in Italia fino a 5000 anni fa o che le piante e gli animali che ci circondano hanno viaggiato attraverso continenti prima di radicarsi qui.

From bestselling author David Quammen, a fascinating scientific detective story about how a transmissible cancer first discovered in Tasmanian devils is connected to the discovery that cancer in humans can be treated as a chronic illness, not a fatal one—a radically new approach that promises...

Синтетическая биология преобразит наше понимание семейных связей, время нашего старения, то, чем мы лечимся, где живем и что едим. В этой бурно развивающейся области, задействующей компьютеры для исправления и изменения генетического кода, уже разработаны революционные решения—от мРНК-вакцин и диагностики врожденных заболеваний у эмбрионов до выращенного в лаборатории мяса, которое на вкус почти неотличимо от настоящего. Она дает нам шанс справиться с глобальными угрозами—изменением климата, нехваткой еды и энергетическим кризисом.

There's hope in every mile. What would you do if you got the worst news? Jordan Adams has faced that moment and turned heartache into hope. Discovering he was the carrier of the gene that caused his mother’s early death from Frontotemporal Dementia, Jordan set out to change the way we see this...

Many of us are introduced to the amoeba in science class at school but know very little about the amazing life of this versatile, shape-shifting cell. A Is for Amoeba is packed with surprising stories that give listeners a richer appreciation of these astonishing microbes, revealing what amoebas have to tell us about the natural world and ourselves. Along the way, this entertaining and informative book shows how amoebas influenced figures like Friedrich Nietzsche, who saw in them an expression of the will to power, and Sigmund Freud, who likened the movements of amoebas to the human ego.

With senses that often seem alien to us, bees navigate complex decisions about where to find food, when to fight or flee, and how to work together. The Language of Bees invites listeners into the hidden world of bee communication, a realm where creatures less than an inch long use scent, vibration, movement, and sound to cooperate, share information, and survive.

Depuis quarante ans, l'ADN a révolutionné les enquêtes criminelles. Emmanuel Pham-Hoai est l'un des rares à avoir été enquêteur en section de recherches au contact direct des crimes, puis expert judiciaire en empreintes génétiques. Il raconte ici les affaires dans lesquelles l'ADN a été déterminant et qui ont défrayé la chronique. Entre terrain, laboratoire et cour d'assises, il explique simplement ce que l'ADN permet et ce qu'il ne peut pas.

We look at the eye, the wing, the living cell, and something in us says: this cannot be an accident. The feeling is real. The conclusion it points toward is not.
