Weaving together family history, genetic discovery, and scenes from her life, Ami McKay tells the compelling, true-science story of her own family's unsettling legacy of hereditary cancer while exploring the challenges that come from carrying the mutation that not only killed many people you loved, but might also kill you.

Caitlin Shetterly discovered the importance of GMOs the hard way. Shortly after she learned that her son had an alarming sensitivity to GMO corn, she was told that she had the same condition, and her family's daily existence changed forever. An expansion of Shetterly's viral Elle article "The Bad Seed", Modified delves deep into the heart of the matter - from the cornfields of Nebraska to the beekeeping conventions in Brussels - to shine a light on the people, the science, and the corporations behind the food we serve ourselves and our families every day.

Drawing on startling new evidence from the mapping of the genome, an explosive new account of the genetic basis of race and its role in the human story. Human evolution, the consensus view insists, ended in prehistory. Inconveniently, as Nicholas Wade argues in A Troublesome Inheritance, the consensus view cannot be right. And in fact, we know that populations have changed in the past few thousand years - to be lactose tolerant, for example, and to survive at high altitudes.

When we think of the forces driving cancer, we don’t necessarily think of evolution. But evolution and cancer are closely linked, for the historical processes that created life also created cancer. The Cheating Cell delves into this extraordinary relationship, and shows that by understanding cancer’s evolutionary origins, researchers can come up with more effective, revolutionary treatments.

Taking us on an incredible journey across centuries and galaxies, accompanied by his characteristic wit, Professor Luke O’Neill explains how it all began, how it will all end and everything in between. Listeners will benefit from Luke’s insatiable curiosity for life when they dive into this ultimate journey through life and death. Among other fascinating facts, you’ll discover the science behind how we got to be so smart, why sex with a caveman was a good idea, the science of finding love, why we follow religions and how robots will become part of everyday life.

Understanding the basis of making moral choices is crucial as society becomes increasingly complex. Moral Choices: An Introduction to Ethics gives college students a solid grounding in both theory of ethics and its applications to the social issues of today. Avoiding undue dogmatism, Professor Scott B. Rae outlines the distinctive elements of Christian ethics.

Already technology enables parents to select some genetic traits for their children, and soon it will be possible to begin to shape ourselves as a species. Countering loud cries of alarm, bioethics expert Ronald Green explains why our fears about genetic engineering are overblown and how we can move forward responsibly to create a better future.

An award-winning physician and scientist makes the game-changing case that genetic females are stronger than males at every stage of life. Here are some facts: Women live longer than men. They have stronger immune systems. They're better at fighting cancer and surviving famine and even see the world in a wider variety of colours. They are simply stronger than men at every stage of life. Why is this? And why are we taught the opposite?

How is it that Homo sapiens formed such a special relationship with what, on the face of it, is a most unlikely ally? It is more than just a story of domestication but an astonishing example of the co-evolution of two species, man and wolf, to each other's mutual benefit. This co-evolution was a vital step in helping Homo sapiens overcome competition from other human species and to expand in numbers from relative obscurity on the margins towards the overwhelming numerical superiority and influence that we enjoy today.

How could a relatively simple chemical code give rise to the complexity of a human being? How could our human genome have evolved? And how does it actually work? Your genome defines you at the most profound level. That same genome is present in every one of the approximately 100,000 billion cells that make you who you are as an individual member of the human species. An important ingredient of the genome, and its essential nature, is memory .

Nuestro código genético, el ADN, es la información más íntima y profunda que heredamos de nuestros padres y antepasados. Es, además, casi igual entre los seres humanos. Podríamos decir que solo una porción minúscula es responsable de que podamos ver tantas diferencias a simple vista: color de ojos, de piel, de pelo, de altura. Pero ese mínimo porcentaje es también el que nos puede brindar datos esenciales para saber qué alimentos consumir para mejorar nuestra calidad de vida y prolongarla.

« Biologie des croyances » est une œuvre révolutionnaire dans le domaine de la nouvelle biologie. Chercheur et ex-professeur d'une école de médecine, Bruce H. Lipton, Phd., présente ses expériences et celles d'autres scientifiques de pointe qui ont examiné en détail les mécanismes par lesquels les cellules reçoivent et traitent les informations. Les implications de ces recherches changent radicalement notre compréhension de la vie en démontrant que les gènes et l'ADN ne contrôlent pas notre fonctionnement biologique.

Vital research is starting to challenge long-standing assumptions about gender identity and biological sex, such as work that indicates the brain is a “mosaic” of traits rather than a “male” and “female” brain. Growing knowledge of the genetic complexities of sexual determination is changing the way the medical community treats intersex individuals, and in this audiobook, The New Science of Sex and Gender, we not only examine the latest studies in biology, medicine, and psychology but also, more importantly, their bearing on healthcare, identity, and access.

Daughter. Duhitár-. Dustr. Dukte. Listen to these English, Sanskrit, Armenian and Lithuanian words, all meaning the same thing, and you hear echoes of one of history’s most unlikely journeys. All four languages—along with hundreds of others, from French and Gaelic, to Persian and Polish—trace their origins to an ancient tongue spoken as the last ice age receded. This language, which we call Proto-Indo-European, was born between Europe and Asia and exploded out of its cradle, fragmenting as it spread east and west.

Humans are the only species who can reprogram themselves. This is astounding. In episode 8 of The Book Club, Amit Varma recommends you read 'Hacking Darwin' by Jamie Metzl, a lucid summation of the technological implications of genetic science – and the ethical questions they raise.

"Guerras CRISPR: Cómo la Edición Genética Revolucionará la Guerra" es una obra de no ficción que explora el asombroso y aterrador potencial de la tecnología CRISPR en el campo de batalla. A través de un análisis detallado, el libro examina cómo la manipulación genética puede dar lugar a soldados mejorados, capaces de hazañas físicas y cognitivas que antes eran imposibles.

Ofrece una visión completa y detallada sobre el impacto de las terapias génicas, la edición genética con CRISPR y la clonación en la transformación de los tratamientos médicos. Esta obra es esencial para profesionales de la salud, investigadores y lectores interesados en entender cómo estas tecnologías están revolucionando la manera en que tratamos las enfermedades genéticas, hereditarias y degenerativas.

In an age of groundbreaking scientific discovery, RNA Vaccines: A New Frontier in Science takes listeners on an illuminating journey through one of the most transformative innovations in modern medicine. From the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic to the promise of personalized therapies, RNA vaccines have reshaped our understanding of immunology, biotechnology, and global health.

This book will cover DNA links to convictions and acquittals. The long link of DNA evidence is vast. That many convictions were overturned because of DNA evidence or that many years after convictions individuals were set free. Privacy issues are also in question. Many countries have different regulations due to new laws surrounding the length of time that DNA is stored. The varying strands of this innovative forensic evidence collection is also in jeopardy.

Well-meaning physicians, parents, and even scientists today often spread misinformation about what biology can and can't tell us about our bodies, minds, and identities. In this accessible, myth-busting book, geneticist Shoumita Dasgupta draws on the latest science to correct common misconceptions about how much of our social identities are actually based in genetics.
