Cracking the Aging Code: The New Science of Growing Old—and What It Means for Staying Young
by Dorion Sagan Josh MitteldorfA revolutionary examination of why we age, what it means for our health, and how we just might be able to fight it.In Cracking the Aging Code, theoretical biologist Josh Mitteldorf and award-winning writer and ecological philosopher Dorion Sagan reveal that evolution and aging are even more complex and breathtaking than we originally thought. Using meticulous multidisciplinary science, as well as reviewing the history of our understanding about evolution, this book makes the case that aging is not something that “just happens,” nor is it the result of wear and tear or a genetic inevitability. Rather, aging has a fascinating evolutionary purpose: to stabilize populations and ecosystems, which are ever-threatened by cyclic swings that can lead to extinction. When a population grows too fast it can put itself at risk of a wholesale wipeout. Aging has evolved to help us adjust our growth in a sustainable fashion as well as prevent an ecological crisis from starvation, predation, pollution, or infection.This dynamic new understanding of aging is provocative, entertaining, and pioneering, and will challenge the way we understand aging, death, and just what makes us human.
Cracking the Einstein Code: Relativity and the Birth of Black Hole Physics
by Fulvio MeliaAlbert Einstein's theory of general relativity describes the effect of gravitation on the shape of space and the flow of time. But for more than four decades after its publication, the theory remained largely a curiosity for scientists; however accurate it seemed, Einstein's mathematical code--represented by six interlocking equations--was one of the most difficult to crack in all of science. That is, until a twenty-nine-year-old Cambridge graduate solved the great riddle in 1963. Roy Kerr's solution emerged coincidentally with the discovery of black holes that same year and provided fertile testing ground--at long last--for general relativity. Today, scientists routinely cite the Kerr solution, but even among specialists, few know the story of how Kerr cracked Einstein's code. Fulvio Melia here offers an eyewitness account of the events leading up to Kerr's great discovery. Cracking the Einstein Code vividly describes how luminaries such as Karl Schwarzschild, David Hilbert, and Emmy Noether set the stage for the Kerr solution; how Kerr came to make his breakthrough; and how scientists such as Roger Penrose, Kip Thorne, and Stephen Hawking used the accomplishment to refine and expand modern astronomy and physics. Today more than 300 million supermassive black holes are suspected of anchoring their host galaxies across the cosmos, and the Kerr solution is what astronomers and astrophysicists use to describe much of their behavior. By unmasking the history behind the search for a real world solution to Einstein's field equations, Melia offers a first-hand account of an important but untold story. Sometimes dramatic, often exhilarating, but always attuned to the human element, Cracking the Einstein Code is ultimately a showcase of how important science gets done.
Cracking the Elements (Cracking Ser.)
by Rebecca MilehamFrom the earliest-known elements to those named in 2016, this book takes a comprehensive look at the development of the periodic table - and reveals untold stories, unsung pioneers and plenty of fascinating science along the way. In twelve illustrated chapters, the book makes sense of the patterns and groups within the periodic table, introducing each of the 118 known elements individually and exploring questions including:- Why did the history of fizzy water give early chemistry a sparkle?- How did hydrogen reveal the structure of the atom?- What was the Bunsen burner's role in discovering new elements?- Which of the alkaline earth metals accounts for a kilogramme of your weight?- Why is Marie Curie such a scientific star?- How do tungsten and vanadium explain the secret of super-sharp Syrian swords?- Who discovered the most elements in the periodic table?- What made nihonium, element 113, such a wonderful new year's gift for Japan?- Is glass a liquid or a solid?- How did nitrogen fulfill the alchemists' dream?- Would you have smeared antimony on your face if you'd lived in ancient Egypt?- Why might naked mole rats have clues for surviving a heart attack?- How did the Haya people of Tanzania make steel 1500 years ago?- What makes xenon a great anaesthetic - and why can't all patients use it?- Might there be a pattern in yet undiscovered elements beyond number 118?

Crafting Sustainability in Luxury Textiles for a Zero-Waste Future (Sustainable Textiles: Production, Processing, Manufacturing & Chemistry)
by Rajesh Kumar Sadhna E MokanaasriIn an era where environmental consciousness is rapidly becoming a priority, the luxury textile industry stands at a crucial crossroads. As consumers increasingly demand products that not only offer elegance and opulence but also align with sustainable values, luxury brands are facing a paradigm shift in their approach. This shift towards sustainability is not merely a trend but a fundamental reevaluation of the industry's practices, driven by a growing awareness of the environmental impact of textile manufacturing and consumption. This contributed volume explores this transformative journey, investigating how luxury and sustainability can harmoniously coexist to shape a future where opulence is synonymous with environmental stewardship. The book examines the intricate relationship between luxury textiles and sustainability, offering insights, analyses, and practical solutions for crafting a zero-waste future in the high-end fashion industry. The book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to navigate the complexities of sustainable textile production while maintaining the essence of luxury and craftsmanship. Through a collaborative effort, the work presented here sets the stage for a future where luxury textiles captivate the senses and inspire a profound sense of environmental responsibility, paving the way toward a zero-waste future in high-end fashion.
