When a Gene Makes You Smell Like a Fish
From the gene that causes people to age prematurely to the "bitter gene" that may spawn broccoli haters, this book explores a few of the more exotic locales on the human genome, highlighting some of the tragic and bizarre ways our bodies go wrong when genes fall prey to mutation and the curious ways in which genes have evolved for our survival. Lisa Seachrist Chiu has a smorgasbord of stories to tell about rare and not so rare genetic quirks. We read about the Dracula Gene, a mutation in zebra fish that causes blood cells to explode on contact with light, and suites of genes that also influence behavior and physical characteristics; the Tangier Island Gene, first discovered after physicians ...
The Noughties Brought to Book
Why music doesn't add up, what The Simpsons can teach us about science, whether Juana la Loca wasn't crazy after all, and what's behind the gaseous veil of Saturn's moon Titan ' these are just some of the questions addressed in the more than 70 reviews and essay reviews from the years 2000 to 2009 collected in this volume. They cover books about science, ranging from the academic to the popularized kind, but there are also books about cultural topics and even a few novels scattered in for good measure. Most of these books reviewed haven't found a massive amount of attention, although some of them should have, at least in the reviewer's opinion. And even if the book under review wasn't all that good, the format of an essay review allows the author to have a go at presenting the subject matter his own way. All in all, a reflection of what happened during the noughties in the worlds of science and culture, and off the beaten track.
Your Flexxible Brain Neuro-Nastics Building a Bigger Better Brain
New genetic and brain scan research has created a revolution in modern scientific thinking regarding the human brain. Recent neuroscience has clearly demonstrated that repetitive rehab, or what Dr. Milton calls neuro-nastics can and does change specific physical brain structures (enlarging or shrinking). As a shortcut Dr. Milton calls such changes - brain nodules. He goes on to ask and answer the question: Do nodulized individuals (or more precisely their morphed, physically modified brains) have the capacity to abruptly change thought direction without considerable amounts of new content loading? (e.g. neuro-nastics, think Rehab). If peers, parents and mentors have repeated the same informa...
