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.

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.

As a military psyops commander, Alec Birri's job was to exploit society's divisions, but when those same techniques were turned on him, he faced an uncomfortable question: what if division isn't a defect in the human condition after all? What if we're meant to be divided? In DIVISION: Why Societies Divide—and Why They Must, Birri explores a provocative idea: just as living systems depend upon division to reproduce and evolve, so might human societies depend upon psychological division to survive.

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.

El ADN es la base de la individualidad y de la singularidad humana. Siguiendosus instrucciones se construye un cerebro particular, el tuyo, sobre el que se apoya lo que eres. Los humanos hemos perseguido desde tiempos inmemoriales el sabio consejo «Conócete a ti mismo», inscrito en el templo...

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.
