Your health and happiness depend on a bundle of 200,000 nerve fibres that holds the secrets to life itself 'Comprehensive and compelling' - New Scientist 'Fascinating reading' - New Statesman 'The Great Nerve is altogether a masterpiece and a timeless document for those who want to see what science is all about: faith, focus, patience and hard work' - Wim Hof, bestselling author of The Wim Hof Method ___________ The vagus nerve is often referred to as the 'superhighway' which connects every organ of the body to the brain, and vice versa, but it is so much more than just traffic. The 'great nerve' vibrates in tune with your health like the instruments of an orchestra: when your vagus nerve is healthy, so are you. When it isn't, you experience everything from poor sleep to low mood, pain, suffering and chronic illness. Recent scientific developments, including Dr Kevin Tracey's research showing how the vagus nerve is linked to the immune system, have brought the nerve to the attention of everyone from neuroscientists to TikTok influencers. In The Great Nerve Dr Tracey shares the science of how the vagus nerve operates to regulate our health, how we can help it, and the truth behind popular 'vagus nerve stimulating' strategies such as ice baths, meditation, exercise and breathwork. He reveals the extraordinary new science that promises to revolutionise healthcare, where computer chips may regulate your blood sugar, and electrical implants may replace your medications forever. Trailblazing vagus nerve stimulation therapy, pioneered by Dr Tracey, is demonstrating potential to reverse life-altering diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, obesity, stroke, depression, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. The Great Nerve not only revolutionises how we will understand and treat disease, it gives us unprecedented hope for our health.

This book provides a unique exploration of the mechanical properties of graphene and graphene-based materials, with a focus on elastic constants, tensile strength, hardness, and deformation behavior. It emphasizes the critical link between structure and mechanical properties, highlighting how atomic-scale characteristics influence macroscopic performance. This connection is further surveyed through molecular dynamics studies, providing a bridge between theoretical predictions and experimental observations. With an integrated analysis of both the fundamental and applied aspects of graphene's mechanical properties, this book serves as an essential resource for researchers, engineers, and students interested in understanding how this family of materials can be harnessed for advanced material design and application.

A novel perspective on scientific fraud—how undisclosed “tweaks” to research designs and model specifications fuel the credibility crisis in science. In The Credibility Crisis in Science, leading social scientists Thomas Plümper and Eric Neumayer argue that the most important fraudulent strategy is crucially underappreciated. While data fabrication and manipulation are widely recognized as fraudulent, “tweaks”—the intentional selection of research designs and model specifications based on the results they give—are not. The authors of this book contend that the term “scientific fraud” must include tweaks. Tweakers, like other fraudsters, deceive readers by concealing their manipulation of empirical results and they do so to further their own interests. The authors show how easily observational data analyses, experimental designs, and causal models are tweaked in ways that are extremely difficult, often impossible, to detect. As a consequence, the credibility crisis in science is even more severe than both scientists and the public believe. Plümper and Neumayer argue that conventional strategies to deter, prevent, and detect fraud will not work for tweaks. The authors put forth two potential solutions: first, a classification system that categorizes data based on its susceptibility to manipulation and the probability of such manipulation being identified, and second, the proposal that journal editors and reviewers, rather than authors, select robustness tests.

The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

Everything Is Tuberculosis

Humans have always looked up at the sky and wondered. From ancient Babylonians tracking celestial objects on clay tablets to labs probing the subatomic realm, scientific inquiry has been driven by an innately human quest – a desire to understand, quite simply, where we fit in.&nbsp;A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE (and our place in it) tells the story of our search for meaning in a sprawling cosmic ocean. From ancient astrology to the Copernican revolution, from dark matter to our search for life outside of earth, it will take you on a journey through the discoveries that have propelled and continually overturned our understanding of the cosmos, the nature of reality, and ourselves. From a particle physicist at the forefront of cutting-edge research into the building blocks of the universe comes a spectacular celebration of our capacity for wonder. Written with clarity and simplicity, A BRIEF HISTORY tells you everything you need to know about the fundamentals of our universe, and our restless quest to understand our place in it.
