John Gribbin & Mary Gribbin: Against the
Odds / B

Against the Odds

Women Pioneers of Science

'Fascinating, insightful, lucidly and entertainingly written' A. C. GRAYLING, author of The History of Philosophy 'Extraordinary, eye-opening, startlingly original' CASS R. SUNSTEIN, co-author of Nudge 'Filled with insightful findings, this book shows that ideological extremism and polarization are not just problems to fret about but puzzles that can be studied and understood' STEVEN PINKER, author of The Better Angels of Our Nature How do our brains shape the ideologies we choose? And could our most cherished beliefs ultimately harm our brains and bodies? In The Ideological Brain, Dr Leor Zmigrod argues that when we believe passionately and extremely in an ideology, it is not only our political opinions that are changed - our entire brain can be transformed too. Drawing on cutting-edge research, Zmigrod reveals how rigid belief systems transform the way we think, act and interact with others, making us less sensitive, less adaptable and less free. Guiding you through innovative experiments, Zmigrod uncovers the deep and surprising connections between your political beliefs and the biology of your brain, exposing why some of us are more likely to gravitate towards rigid ideologies than others. She reveals the complex interplay between the psychological, neurobiological and social factors affecting our ideological choices, and carves a hopeful way forward, explaining how we can keep our minds open and free in the face of extreme ideologies. Eye-opening, provocative, and unforgettable, The Ideological Brain is a groundbreaking book that challenges you to resist black-and-white thinking and reassess your closest convictions. 'Lucid, eloquent, timely' ADAM PHILLIPS, author of Missing Out 'Deeply fascinating and beautifully written' JULIA EBNER, author of Going Dark 'One of the most brain-frying books I have read in an incredibly long time.' JOHN BURN-MURDOCH, chief data reporter, Financial Times

How Rigid Beliefs Harm Our Minds & Bodies – And Why It Matters

The Ideological Brain

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge thousands of eager subscribers premium prices. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

The Pornography Business

How the groundbreaking science of body clocks can help you sleep better, feel happier and improve your overall health 'The Inner Clock explores the strange new science of why your circadian rhythms fall out of sync - and how to get them back on track to live a happier, healthier life' JAMES NESTOR, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BREATH 'Secrets to better sleep . . . Crammed with facts, figures and fascinating scientific studies' SUNDAY TIMES Your body contains a symphony of tiny timepieces, synchronised to the sun and subtle signals in your environment and behaviour. But modern insults like artificial light, contrived time zones and late-night meals can wreak havoc on your internal clocks. Armed with advances in biology and technology, a circadian renaissance is reclaiming those lost rhythms. The Inner Clock explores the emerging science and its transformative applications: How could taking a walk in the morning and going to bed at the same time each night keep your body in sync? Why are some doctors prescribing treatments at specific times of day? And how might a better understanding of our circadian rhythms improve educational outcomes, optimise sports performance, and support the longevity of our planet? Science journalist Lynne Peeples seeks out the scientists, astronauts, athletes and patients at the forefront of a growing movement. Along the way, she sleeps in a Cold War-era bunker, chases the midnight sun, spits into test tubes, and wears high-tech light sensors to decipher what makes our internal clocks tick and how we can reset them for the better. 'Peeples has new stories and surprises . . . You will find plenty of practical tips here on how to sneak an extra 'circadian snack' into your lives, reset your chronicity and live in a healthier, more timely manner' NEW SCIENTIST

Living in Sync With Our Circadian Rhythms

'Has the power to change the way you look at the world' Steven Bartlett'The heir to Oliver Sacks' David BaddielA FINANCIAL TIMESBEST BOOK OF 2024AN INDEPENDENTBOOK OF THE MONTHGluttony. Greed. Sloth. Pride. Envy. Lust. Anger.These are the seven deadly sins, the vices of humankind that define immorality, the roots of all evil in the world. Or so some believe.But do these sins really represent moral failings, or are they simply human functions that aid us? Are they just the result of how our bodies, psyches, and brains in particular, are wired?This new book by Dr Guy Leschziner, a professor of neurology and sleep medicine, explores the underlying nature of the seven deadly sins, their neuroscientific and psychological basis, their origin in our genes and crucially how certain medical disorders give rise to them.Drawing on his clinical practice, we meet individuals whose physical and psychological conditions have given rise to these sins, where brain injury or other experiences have sparked 'immoral' actions. He explores how illness can simply expose what lies within us and investigates how the origins of these traits lie in evolutionary imperatives to preserve the wellbeing of the tribe. Perhaps, he suggests, these character traits are less of a moral question and more biological, which raises fundamental issues of responsibility and blame in the face of 'sin'.Combining cutting-edge science placed in the context of real-life experience with patients, the book reexamines where the boundaries between normal human nature, pathology and sin are drawn. And, most importantly, whether these hard-wired traits truly represent sin, or simply the intensity of our intrinsic desire to survive and thrive.

The Biology of Being Human

Seven Deadly Sins

Karl Lothar Wolf war ein Getriebener&nbsp;- rastlos in der Forschung, ambitioniert in der Hochschulpolitik, oft konfliktreich im persönlichen Umgang. Als Physikochemiker hinterließ er wichtige Beiträge zur Molekülordnung und Grenzflächenforschung. Gleichzeitig bewegte er sich auf gefährlichem politischem Terrain: Früh bekannte er sich zum Nationalsozialismus und wurde 1933 in Kiel zum jüngsten Rektor Nazideutschlands ernannt. Die politischen Umbrüche nutzte er, um seine Vorstellungen von Forschung und akademischer Macht durchzusetzen, mit folgenreichen Konflikten für Kollegen, Institutionen und für ihn selbst.Der Autor, lange selbst an Wolfs Wirkungsort in Halle tätig, zeichnet das Bild eines Wissenschaftlers, der von Neugier, ideologischer Verblendung und unermüdlichem Geltungsdrang zugleich geprägt war. Die Biografie folgt seinem Weg durch das "Dritte Reich", durch Krieg, Entnazifizierung und Neuanfang bis zur Gründung eines Instituts, das später in die Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft einging."Zerrissene Wissenschaft" beleuchtet Leben und Wirken eines unbequemen Forschers und lädt ein zur kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit der Chemie des 20.&nbsp;Jahrhunderts im Spannungsfeld von Erkenntnisdrang, Weltanschauung und gesellschaftlicher Verantwortung.

Zerrissene Wissenschaft

Vom Zählstein zum Computer

Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) ist nicht nur einer der größten Mathematiker, sondern gleichfalls einer der schöpferischsten Menschen überhaupt gewesen. Seine rastlose Tätigkeit; die auch durch Blindheit nicht beeinträchtigt wurde, beschränkte sich jedoch nicht nur auf die Mathematik, denn er war ebenso universaler Naturwissenschaftler wie tiefgehender Philosoph, seine Arbeiten reichen von technischen Anwendungen der Naturwissenschaften bis zur Kartographie ebenso wie von der Musik bis zur Landwirtschaft. Respektvoll sahen bereits seine Zeitgenossen in ihm die lebendige Personifizierung der Analysis, aber darüber hinaus verkörperte er das wissenschaftliche Bewusstsein seiner Zeit wie kein anderer. Seine Arbeiten reichen von technischen Anwendungen der Naturwissenschaften&nbsp;bis zur Kartographie ebenso wie von der Musik bis zur Landwirtschaft. Respektvoll&nbsp;sahen bereits seine Zeitgenossen in ihm die lebendige Personifizierung&nbsp;der Analysis, aber darüber hinaus verkörperte er das wissenschaftliche Bewusstseinseiner Zeit wie kein anderer. Die vorliegende Biographie geht daher über eine reine Lebensbeschreibung hinaus und zeichnet ein faszinierendes Bild jenes an geistigen Auseinandersetzungen und Kämpfen so reichen 18. Jahrhunderts, in das Eulers Leben und Werk eingebettet ist und auf dem unsere moderne Welt wesentlich fußt.

'Eric Schlosser changed the way we ate' Guardian 'Irresistible . . . frighteningly convincing . . . channelling the spirits of Upton Sinclair and Rachel Carson' San Francisco Chronicle This landmark work of reportage exposed how a handful of fast-food giants came to dominate America and remake the world in their image: eroding wages, damaging consumers' health and wrecking the environment. From talking to workers at meatpacking plants with shocking safety records to revealing the tactics used to target ever-younger customers, Eric Schlosser's blend of humane storytelling and meticulous research encouraged millions to question the industrial food system, and to rethink the way they eat.

'Fascinating, absorbing and educative' A. C. Grayling 'Highly original and beautifully written' Dominic Lawson A compelling insight into how our imagination works, based on the latest scientific research. People often think of imagination as something used only in creative endeavours. In fact, we use imagination constantly as we reminisce, anticipate, plan, daydream, read, create imagined worlds. The truth is we live in the here and now much less than we tend to think. Imagination isn't the exception in our daily lives; it's our default setting. Yet only now are we beginning to understand exactly how it works. From hallucination to sleepwalking, from REM sleep to delusions, neurologist Adam Zeman brilliantly guides us through the latest scientific studies in the world of the imagination. He draws on research in neuroscience, the study of human origins and child development to show how the human brain is above all else a creative, imaginative organ - and that we have evolved to share what we imagine. Our brains behave in strikingly similar ways when we observe, remember, imagine or act. Imagine looking at a cube and your eye will trace the contours of the cube as if you were actually seeing it. Yet it turns out that people differ hugely in their imaginative experience. Some people lack sensory imagery altogether - they would be unable to picture their family if asked to - but still lead fulfilling, even highly creative, lives. From how we visualise to how we understand the minds of others, from the benefits of play to mental disorders, The Shape of Things Unseen dazzles and delights. It is an essential guide to the latest discoveries about the workings of the human mind.

China Perspectives

Focusing on a decade of controversy surrounding genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in China, this book provides a rigorous, mixed-method analysis of how risk discourses are constructed and disseminated on the social media platform Weibo.This book uncovers the rich diversity of competing risk frames and reveals how digital platforms can democratize the negotiation of scientific uncertainty, yet also fragment public deliberation and discussion, leading to the reinforcement of new power dynamics and discursive inequalities. Breaking down the mechanisms behind the viral spread of GMO risk information, it examines how message features, contextual factors (e.g., source credibility), network structures, and social contagion processes shape what we believe and share. Ultimately, it will advance a deeper understanding of digital risk communication in increasingly platform-mediated societies.It is an essential resource for science policymakers, risk communication professionals, and other stakeholders seeking to navigate the complexities of risk and uncertainty in the digital age.

Contending Over Uncertainty

*THE NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* Bill Gates is one of the most transformative figures of our age. In Source Code he takes us back to his beginnings. He describes with candour his childhood in Seattle, the centrality of family - his close relationship with his card-playing grandmother and his demanding but caring parents - his struggles to fit in, his rebelliousness, his first deep friendships and the impact of losing his closest friend. We see Gates's extraordinary mind developing, the restless teenager who discovered a love of coding and computing at the dawn of a new era and felt that 'by applying my brain, I could solve even the world's most complex mysteries'. We see the earliest signs of his phenomenal business acumen, which led him to drop out of Harvard at the age of 20 to devote all his energies to Microsoft, the company he started with his childhood friend Paul Allen. He writes about his first involvement with three Steves - Jobs, Wozniak and Ballmer - who would play a crucial role in so much that followed. The book ends in the late 1970s when Microsoft, still with only a dozen employees, signed its first deal with Apple. The deals would go on and Microsoft would grow unimaginably. Yet Gates never forgot his mother's reminder that he was merely a steward of any wealth that he gained. This warm and inspiring book, Bill Gates' origin story, allows readers to understand his energy and ambition - and to see how he sets himself in the world.
