Marine Microbial Products: Applications and Opportunities delves into the extensive and highly diverse world of marine microbes, an assemblage of organisms that contain a broad array of bioactive chemicals. Often unique due to the extreme environmental conditions in which they are synthesized, these chemicals present opportunities for innovations in human health, environmental sustainability, and technological progress. Readers will gain valuable insights into the biodiversity of marine microbes, characterization of their bioactive chemicals, and opportunities for innovation and sustainable development across multiple sectors. Written and edited by a diverse team of environmental microbiologists, this book is systematically structured to provide readers with a foundational understanding of marine microbial taxa, the products that may be synthesized from these organisms, technological innovations, and future directions of research. Chapters collate the most current research in healthcare, sustainable industry, and commercial production to provide readers with the latest information on antibiotics, antivirals, anticancer therapeutics, immunosuppresive chemicals, bioremediation, food processing, biofertilizers, biopesticides, cosmetics, pigments, probiotics, and functional foods. Given the interdisciplinary nature of this growing area of research, Marine Microbial Products: Applications and Opportunities is structured for accessibility to academic and professional audiences spanning a variety of sectors. It is an indispensable resource for students, professors, researchers, and industry professionals in biology, biotechnology, sustainable development, food and healthcare sciences, and adjacent industries.

Violence is often described as a social issue, a moral failing, or an innate human instinct. But in fact, argues Dr Gary Slutkin, violence is a contagion that infects a society like a disease. And we now know there is a cure. 'Gary Slutkin is one of the most important thinkers and activists in the vital effort to understand and reduce violent crime....an invaluable contribution.' Steven Pinker, author of The Better Angels of Our Nature This isn't a metaphor. In The End of Violence, Dr Slutkin draws on the expertise gleaned from four decades on the frontlines fighting deadly epidemics to reveal that violence operates according to the same predictable logic as every other contagious disease, initially infecting a small number of carriers then spreading from host to host. An act of violence is not just a tragic event - it's patient zero in an outbreak. Through compelling stories ranging from the war-torn streets of Syria to mass shootings in suburban America, The End of Violence offers a hopeful alternative to the failed strategies of deterrence and incarceration: a proven method that interrupts transmission, changes behaviour, and inoculates against future infection. Incisive, far-reaching, and ultimately hopeful, The End of Violence is essential reading that offers a new way to protect ourselves, heal our communities, and end the global epidemic of violence during our lifetime. 'This book could not be more relevant or useful.' William Ury, bestselling author of Getting to Yes 'A visionary work. A must-read, not only for practitioners but also for everyday people who care about their families, their futures, and those around them.' Dr Susan L. Bissell, Founding Director, Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children 'Dr Slutkin is revolutionizing the field entirely... The world needs this book now to change the tide of violence and build a world of peace.' Rima Salah, former Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations

The End of Violence

In How Flowers Made Our World, biologist David Haskell redefines our understanding of flowers, casting them as powerful revolutionaries at the heart of Earth's story. Far from being mere ornaments, flowers have shaped the very fabric of life on our planet. When they first evolved, they triggered a cascade of biodiversity, transforming oceans, creating new habitats, and even altering the climate. Their beauty turned adversaries into allies, and their adaptability turned environmental upheavals into opportunities for renewal. Haskell shows how flowers have built and sustained ecosystems from rainforests to prairies, and how they have been pivotal in the evolution of species like butterflies, bees, and birds. Flowers also played a crucial role in human history, grasses calling to our ancestors to leave the trees and laying the foundation for agriculture and modern civilization. Through vivid storytelling and profound insights, Haskell reveals flowers as portals into deep time and essential players in our ecological future. How Flowers Made Our World invites readers to see these delicate blooms in a new light-as the dynamic and influential forces they truly are.

'Every page feels alive with passion' - Sophie Pavelle, author of 'Forget Me Not' 'A beautiful book' - Levison Wood, author of 'Walking the Himalayas' 'A heartfelt account of exploration and discovery' - Liz Bonnin, broadcaster Join scientist Dr Rosa Vasquez Espinoza as she uncovers one of the most unexplored regions on the planet. Dr Rosa is no stranger to the Amazon. Growing up with the rainforest as her back garden, she learnt the lessons of the rainforest from her grandmother, a native healer in natural medicine. She went on to pursue a classical education in science, gaining a PhD in the US, but has always been pulled back to the heart of the Amazon. As a leading biologist in her field, Rosa continues to explore the region through a unique blend of scientific inquiry and ancient insight. In this debut, you'll learn about Dr Rosa's journeys in the Amazon: her treacherous encounters with a boiling river, her conservation work with stingless bees, her experience of taking ayahuasca as a natural psychedelic - and all the amazing biodiversity of the rainforest. At the heart of Rosa's expedition is her passion to combine science with the indigenous knowledge of the Amazon. She shares her experience of learning from the indigenous communities that she visits, and shows what they have to teach us - stretching beyond the realm scientific knowledge. Here Rosa learns the most important lessons in how to reconnect to the natural world - and, in turn, will teach us to do the same. In this book, Rosa celebrates the richness of Amazonian culture, the wonders of biodiversity, and the enduring spiritual connections between humanity and the natural world.
