Galfard Christophe: Life Is In Your
Hands / LF

Life Is In Your Hands

Working Nature offers a history of the energy economy and its representations over the 19th and 20th century. Russ argues that "Energy" is not a thing nor an ability, but a social relation to nature forged in capitalist industrialisation. The concept of energy mediates the appropriation of diverse natural forces - water, steam, coal, electricity – altering the way these forces would naturally behave to perform work in production. From the valuation of coal and crafting of the current to the formalization of the substitution of energy commodities, it asks how engineers, scientists and economists achieved the production and circulation of nature’s work against social and natural resistance. In so doing, they undermined the very purpose of the energy economy - to emancipate humanity from nature. Can there be a human reconciliation with nature’s resistance for our time?

Wind Energy: Societal and Human Impacts

Debating the use of genomic tools and their societal impactOver the past decade, the field of human genetics has produced an extraordinary range of discoveries-including the refinement of polygenic scores, which use a person's DNA to estimate their likelihood of developing a trait or disease. But are these new technologies ready to leave the research lab and be deployed in schools, fertility clinics, and the wider world? In What We Inherit, Sam Trejo and Daphne Martschenko offer different perspectives on the societal impact of the rapidly unfolding DNA revolution. Trejo, a sociologist and expert on the complex ways people's genes influence their life's trajectory, believes that new genomic tools-if used thoughtfully-can improve society; Martschenko, a bioethicist who specializes in the thorny social issues raised by biomedical advances, is more cautious. They debate both the risks and the opportunities posed by such new technologies as at-home genetic tests and polygenic embryo selection-all while engaging in a wide-ranging dialogue on ideology, biology, and social inequality. While grappling with these new technologies, Trejo and Martschenko remind us that we inherited from our ancestors not only DNA but also wrong-headed ideas about genes. Together, they caution against two particularly harmful genetic myths: that genes determine an individual's future, and that race and genetics are inherently connected. A polygenic score, for example, is not a definitive marker for disease. And race is a sociopolitical construct, not a biological identity. Trejo and Martschenko argue that, to avoid exacerbating social inequality, we need to begin regulating genomic tools sooner rather than later.

Aortic Valve Repair provides a comprehensive summary on techniques developed during the first 500 cases of aortic ring annuloplasty. Aortic valve disease is usually surgically managed by aortic valve replacement, and it is well established in published literature regarding the long-term results, survival rate, durability of the protheses and reoperations rates. Over the past two decades, aortic valve repair (AVr) has evolved into a recognized surgical option for selected patients with aortic insufficiency or proximal aorta aneurysm. Studying the first 500 cases of aortic ring annuloplasty, the authors provide the most effective methods of leaflet and aortic root reconstruction to repair pathologies. Including original illustrations and videos, the book serves as an essential reference for cardiac surgeons in practice.

Concepts in Reproduction integrates the principal mechanisms of reproduction among eukaryotes, with a focus on animals and plants. The text emphasizes processes and approaches that evolved to address specific problems inherent in reproduction using examples from morphology, functional studies, and genetic studies. The many high-quality figures complement the text and provide visual storyboards. Footnotes and boxes are used throughout to provide depth and to enrich understanding. Information is compartmentalized to guide new readers through complex material while offering in-depth coverage of significant and impactful topics for experts.Key Features¿ Accessibility for a broad audience, using figures that complement the text to explain key concepts and mechanisms ¿ Integrative presentation that emphasizes the science behind the story¿ Breadth of coverage to promote comparative thought¿ Rich multiple-choice questions that span the contentConcepts in Reproduction is recommended for advanced undergraduate students, new graduate students, and investigators or clinicians seeking breadth in their knowledge in the field. The book provides foundational knowledge of fertilization, gametogenesis, primordial germ cell formation, and ontogeny of reproductive organs. Key principles of developmental biology, genetics, endocrinology, protein biochemistry, and molecular and cellular biology are included to tell holistic stories of reproduction among eukaryotes. Later chapters tackle how the field applies these findings to address societal issues.
