Nieśmiertelne życie Henrietty Lacks
„Jedna z najistotniejszych książek dekady”. CNN Dzięki niej dokonał się jeden z największych przełomów w historii współczesnej nauki – choć ona sama nigdy się o tym nie dowiedziała. Nazywała się Henrietta Lacks, ale naukowcy znają ją jako HeLa. Większość swojego życia spędziła na plantacji tytoniu w stanie Wirginia. Mimo że zmarła w 1951 roku, stała się nieśmiertelna.

Komórki HeLa przyczyniły się do największych odkryć medycznych naszych czasów, takich jak szczepionki przeciw polio, wirusowi...
From Teams to Knots
Teams are commonly celebrated as efficient and humane ways of organizing work and learning. By means of a series of in-depth case studies of teams in the United States and Finland over a time span of more than 10 years, this book shows that teams are not a universal and ahistorical form of collaboration. Teams are best understood in their specific activity contexts and embedded in historical development of work. Today, static teams are increasingly replaced by forms of fluid knotworking around runaway objects that require and generate new forms of expansive learning and distributed agency. This book develops a set of conceptual tools for analysis and design of transformations in collaborative work and learning.
The Diaries of Paul Klee, 1898-1918
Paul Klee was endowed with a rich and many-sided personality that was continually spilling over into forms of expression other than his painting and that made him one of the most extraordinary phenomena of modern European art. These abilities have left their record in the four intimate Diaries in which he faithfully recorded the events of his inner and outer life from his nineteenth to his fortieth year. Here, together with recollections of his childhood in Bern, his relations with his family and such friends as Kandinsky, Marc, Macke, and many others, his observations on nature and people, his trips to Italy and Tunisia, and his military service, the reader will find Klee's crucial experience with literature and music, as well as many of his essential ideas about his own artistic technique and the creative process.
