Planning Miracles
A groundbreaking book about the past, present, and future of pandemics, and a behind-the-scenes portrait of the intrepid and innovative community of scientists working tirelessly to stop the next one before it starts In 1955, the vaccine that eliminated polio was celebrated as a "planned miracle." Today, despite the astonishing global effort that came together to develop a vaccine for COVID-19 at unprecedented speed, we struggle against the rise of science denial and misinformation. Since 2020, we have had to face a terrifying truth: It's not if we'll experience another pandemic, it's when. How do we prepare? Planning Miracles tells the stories of the committed scientists at the front lines, fighting back against societal distrust and panic, monitoring the threats that exist, detecting outbreaks early, and developing new interventions as quickly as possible. Renowned science reporter Jon Cohen travels from the mountains of Vietnam to the rainforests in the Amazon, from the "wet" markets in Cambodia to fairgrounds in the United States, exploring how we can better defend ourselves against the growing threat of pandemics, and he finds surprising--and encouraging--answers. Cohen meets scientists sampling bats, pigs, wild birds, poultry, and insects to hunt for the next dangerous virus. He visits labs developing next-generation vaccines with cutting-edge technology that aim to protect us from entire viral families.

27 Beats Per Minute
'A very special book that I enjoyed enormously' Cees NooteboomA dazzling ode to life, literature and Paris, the French capital that even in emptiness and desolation will always be magnificent. Soon after Henk Pr繹pper moves from Amsterdam to Paris, both the world and his heart almost come to a full stop. He undergoes major surgery and awakes in an empty city in lockdown. Paris is transformed into an abandoned stage. To quicken his recovery, Pr繹pper begins walking. He combs his immediate surroundings, he hunts for the past, discovering countless commemorative plaques and monuments that honour well- and lesser-known Parisians and keep their histories alive.

Doctors, Here Is My Leg
The experiments contained in this book were observed twenty-five years ago. This testimony highlights the relationship between white coats and patients, woven in a particular environment. This book gives readers the opportunity to realize what progress has been made and what adjustments need to be accomplished for the sake of our community health. However, this remains a call to action for requesting actors on the road or in hospital settings to be accountable after their acts and actions. Specifically, in chapter 5, we can read, "In these places, people eat voraciously: always financially, often morally, sometimes physically," whether in the USA or in Africa. The biblical parable of the exchange between Abraham and the rich man (Luke 16:19-31) regarding the possible message of Lazarus to be delivered to the stunned living leads us to better prepare ourselves for the conditions of the hospital bed where we often spend our last hours before the final journey to the afterlife. Thus, a call for engaged citizenship is launched so that everyone invests more of their resources in what matters most to our families: financial education and the cosmos of health.

Struck Down by the Gods
This book describes the different types of strokes; their cause, and the medical conditions often confused with stroke. Although primarily intended for the non-medical person who wants to know how to prevent stroke (and heart attacks), there is much that would be of benefit to all health care professionals. Atherosclerosis, the cause of virtually all heart attacks and a major cause of stroke, is the progressive accumulation throughout life of cholesterol beneath the inner lining of the hardened walls of our arteries. The book challenges the long-held belief that smoking, obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes, and high blood pressure are the cause of atherosclerosis. Although they make it worse, they cannot be the cause, simply because atherosclerosis occurs in the absence of these risk factors and, based on irrefutable autopsy evidence, commences decades before these risk factors appear, in some of us before we are born. Many other reasons for challenging these beliefs are revealed. The book contains interesting historical facts on the evolution of knowledge throughout the centuries since ancient times, explains the difference between absolute and relative risk and benefit, and the real cause of atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries). It explains what we as individuals can do to prevent stroke (and heart attack). It discusses the risk factors that identify those of us who are at increased risk of suffering a stroke (and heart attack), in particular smoking and obesity (and the obesogenic environment we live in), that greatly increase the risk. It makes a plea to the regulatory authorities to alter the way industry-funded research is conducted to provide greater certainty, in particular appointing independent data and safety monitoring committees and not allowing the industry to claim confidentiality over the study data. Finally, it makes a plea to publishers to have a clear statement on the front page stating that this study is/is not funded by industry, to ensure that all papers discuss relative (the benefit to society) and absolute (the benefit to us as an individual) risk increase and reduction, the numbers needed to treat and an economic analysis of the cost benefit. A controversial recommendation is that when a known treatment exists, any new treatment to be compared to that treatment and not to a placebo. The reasons behind these pleas are discussed in the book

It Doesn't Have to Hurt
Free yourself from chronic pain with the latest science-backed techniques and expert practical advice from America's neurosurgeon and bestselling author, Sanjay Gupta. Are you one of the fifty-two million people who experience chronic pain in day-to-day life? In It Doesn't Have to Hurt, Sanjay Gupta makes the powerful argument that you can start practicing effective options for relief today to greatly reduce your chances of suffering pain tomorrow. Gupta shows how pain is not just physical but social and emotional as well. Hard to treat, and too often ignored, it can present in infinite ways. Yet while both patients and practitioners focus on fixing pain problems with drugs or procedures, it turns out we have tremendous agency in choosing how we respond. The brain "creates" pain, but it also has the extraordinary capacity to make it go away. It Doesn't Have to Hurt shows exactly how. Gupta covers conventional treatments, such as mobilization, exercise, analgesia, and treatment (MEAT); acupuncture; trigger point injections; and "prehabilitation" before operations, as well as more recent techniques such as mindfulness-based pain management (MBPM) and myofascial therapy. He shares how to make sense of all those over-the-counter pills, patches, and pain products, as well as drugs advertised on television or prescribed by your doctors. He addresses psychedelics, supplements, and CBD. And he highlights insights from some of the nation's leading pain scientists and specialists, plus stories of challenge and triumph over pain by those with lived experience. With expert guidance and a wealth of science-backed strategies, It Doesn't Have to Hurt is your ultimate resource for reclaiming your life from chronic pain and unlocking a future of lasting relief--starting today.

Pathways to the Development of the Aging Phenotype
Pathways to the Development of the Aging Phenotype explores the journey that all living things must eventually take. Using the definition that aging is a "multifactorial syndrome caused by multiple pathophysiological processes that occur simultaneously in multiple tissues of the aged," Dr. John Papaconstantinou provides a wholistic look at aging, its causes, how it presents, and how aging syndromes can be treated. In addition, this book offers a deeper look at the effects of aging on individual organs.
