Unleash the Power of the Human Genome: Uncover the secrets of genetics and its transformative potential in medicine, even if you’re new to the world of DNA. Are you intrigued by the concept of personalized healthcare and the role genetics play in shaping, not only our health, but our responses to different treatments? Do you ever question why treatments work effectively on some individuals and not on others, even when they have the same disease or ailment?

In recent years, as companies like 23andMe and Ancestry.com have made genetic testing available across the globe, it has become relatively simple to find out where your ancestors came from. But acclaimed geneticist Pierre Zalloua believes that these test results have led to a dangerous oversimplification of what one’s genetic heritage means. People have conflated genetic ancestry with other ways of defining themselves such as “origin,” “ethnicity,” and even “race” but give no attention to the complexities that underlie these concepts.

With genetics and genetic engineering receiving almost daily coverage in the media, this audiobook is an introduction for general listeners who wish to know more about a science that is changing our world. Starting with the history of genetics, from primitive breeding programmes to Mendel's Law, and moving on to a full explanation of genetics and its role in our future, this is a comprehensive survey of genetics past, present and future.

With so much variation that can be handed down genetically, for better or worse, the way we understand our biology holds huge importance for how we understand our world and one another, including the biggest questions of our day, such as social inequality. Eye-opening and profound, Adaptable is a revolutionary reappraisal of an overlooked science.

The Apples, Amazons and Googles of the next few decades will be biotech companies. The tech companies of the last few years have changed how we do things but the businesses driving the biotech revolution are about making life better. These companies will solve many of our most intractable problems: cancer, dementia, diabetes, elderly care, mental health challenges, even power generation and agricultural production. Biotech will mean that we can live far better, safer, healthier, wealthier, happier, and longer lives.

As the planet emerged from the last ice age, a language was born between Europe and Asia, by the Black Sea. This ancient tongue, which we call Proto-Indo-European, soon exploded out of its cradle, changing and fragmenting as it went, until its offspring were spoken from Scotland to China. Today those descendants constitute the world’s largest language family, the thread that connects disparate cultures: Dante’s Inferno to the Rig Veda, The Lord of the Rings to the love poetry of Rumi. Indo-European languages are spoken by nearly half of humanity. How did this happen?

Научившись "читатa" ДНК не только современного Homo sapiens, но и наших далеких предков, мы получили возможность совершать путешествия во времени. В этой книге ведомый генетиком-антропологом Эвелин Эйер читатель пройдет теми же путями, какими передвигались наши исчезнувшие родственники — неандертальцы, денисовцы и загадочный степной народ, положивший начало всем индоевропейским языкам; проследует по следам бухарских евреев, войск Чингисхана и тысячи "королевских дочерей", отправленных Людовиком XIV заселять Новую Францию, взойдет на борт корабля, увозящего с родины африканских рабов.

Los genes no son los responsables de la desigualdad pero llevan impresas las marcas que ha dejado a lo largo de nuestra historia. La creciente desigualdad en el siglo XXI es un grave problema social y sus causas y consecuencias provocan debates y controversias que implican desde agentes sociales y políticos hasta economistas. En Desigualdad, Carles Lalueza-Fox ofrece una visión totalmente nueva de este tema al examinar las huellas genéticas dejadas por la desigualdad en los humanos a lo largo de su historia.

Over 500,000 years ago, a single gene mutated. It spread over time, becoming critical in the journey transforming our earliest ancestors into fully modern humans, capable of navigating the entire planet and beyond. Then just a few thousand years ago, humans gradually outsourced knowledge to writing, and we displaced art and music from the heart of learning. This is the extraordinary story of the discovery of a supergene that makes us uniquely human.

¿Qué tiene de malo manipular nuestra naturaleza? ¿Dónde están las líneas rojas, si las hay? El filósofo Michael Sandel trata de responder a esta pregunta a través de un ameno pero profundo repaso del campo de la bioética.

Parents and parents-to-be are bombarded with information, from what to expect to what to do (and not to do) when it happens. But what they may not realize is that from the chemistry of pregnancy tests to the vacuum physics of breastfeeding, there is fascinating science at the heart of every aspect of creating and raising a new human.

Alice Roberts uses the latest research to uncover the evolutionary history hidden in all of us, from the secrets found only in our embryos and genes - including why as embryos we have what look like gills - to those visible in your anatomy. This is a tale of discovery, exploring why and how we have developed as we have. This is your story, told as never before.

This is not just another diet book—it is intended for those interested in learning easy steps to living GMO-free. Monsanto Corporation continues to strive to be the world's one and only food supplier. Discover the medicinal benefits of foods, herbs, and GMO-free healthy recipes for the whole family to enjoy.

In this exploration of the concept of the gene, Jonathan Slack looks at the discovery, nature, and role of genes in both evolution and development. Explaining the nature of genetic variation in the human population, how hereditary factors were identified as molecules of DNA, and how certain specific mutations can lead to disease, Slack highlights how DNA variants are used to trace human ancestry and migration, and can also be used by forensic scientists to identify individuals in crime.

While traditional drugs mostly help us manage the effects of disease, cell therapies promise genuine cures for a broad range of intractable ailments, from Alzheimer’s to heart damage to cancer. They could even reverse the effects of aging. For the first time in history, on an unprecedented scale, we possess the power to modify the biology that gives rise to disease, ultimately restoring individuals to a state of normalcy and reversing debilitating ailments. Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb traces the scientific achievements that propelled progress in cell therapies.

Embark on a transformative journey that will unveil the extraordinary potential of your subconscious mind, empowering you to reverse the aging process, restore youthful vitality, and rejuvenate every cell in your body. Here we will explore the profound connection between your thoughts, beliefs, and the physical reality you experience. Humanity has long sought the elusive elixir of youth, and while such a literal fountain of youth may not exist, recent scientific advancements reveal that we possess an inner wellspring of rejuvenation—the power of our own subconscious minds.

Eating disorders are one of the most common but elusive conditions to treat in all of Psychiatry. While current treatments do help some patients with eating disorders, many individuals receive little to no benefit from treatment options, leading to a lifelong struggle with anxiety around eating and body image.

Nuestro código genético, el ADN, es la información más íntima y profunda que heredamos de nuestros padres y antepasados. Es, además, casi igual entre los seres humanos. Podríamos decir que solo una porción minúscula es responsable de que podamos ver tantas diferencias a simple vista: color de ojos, de piel, de pelo, de altura. Pero ese mínimo porcentaje es también el que nos puede brindar datos esenciales para saber qué alimentos consumir para mejorar nuestra calidad de vida y prolongarla.

We are on the cusp of a major transformation in healthcare—yet few people know it. At top hospitals and a few innovative health-tech startups, scientists are working closely with patients to dramatically extend their "healthspan"—the number of healthy years before disease sets in. In The Age of Scientific Wellness, two visionary leaders of this revolution in health take us on a thrilling journey to this new frontier of medicine.
