THE UNFORGETTABLE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA TIMES and TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEARRadically new and engaging. MATTHEW WALKERNot only will every reader remember better afterward, theyll also never forget this life-changing book. SIDDHARTHA MUKHERJEERanganath turns much of what we think we know about memory on its head. DANIEL J. LEVITINJust fabulous . . . You learn that you dont have to be a victim to your past and the way you used to think - you have agency because of the fact that the brain can change. DR RANGAN CHATTERJEE---We talk about memory as a record of the past, but heres a surprising twist: we arent supposed to remember everything. In fact, were designed to forget.Over the course of twenty-five years, Charan Ranganath has studied the seemingly selective and unreliable nature of human memory to find that our brains havent evolved to keep a comprehensive record of events, but to extract the information needed to guide our futures.Using fascinating case studies and testimonies, Why We Remember unveils the principles behind what and why we forget and shines new light on the silent, pervasive influence of memory on how we learn, heal and make decisions. By examining the role that attention, intention, imagination and emotion play in the storing of memories, it provides a vital users guide to remembering what we hold most dear.

O retrato de Jennifer Doudna, vencedora do Prémio Nobel da Química, por um dos mais reputados biógrafos da atualidade.Em 2020, Jennifer Doudna recebeu, com Emmanuelle Charpentier, o Prémio Nobel da Quimica pela identificaço da CRISPR-Cas9, uma ferramenta de ediço do ADN que permite tratar doenças graves ou combater virus - foi esta descoberta revolucionaria que facilitou o desenvolvimento das vacinas contra a covid-19. Contudo, abre caminho para um mundo por explorar: em breve, poderemos escolher a altura ou a cor dos olhos de uma criança. Mas sera correto faze-lo? No que respeita a ediço genetica, onde se traça o limite? E quem deve traça-lo?Na vanguarda deste debate incontornavel, esta a comunidade cientifica, pautada pela colaboraço e competiço amigavel na concretizaço de um objetivo comum, por rivalidades declaradas ou, na sua verso mais rara e perigosa, pela transgresso de limites que no devem ser ultrapassados, sob risco de alterar irreversivelmente a especie humana.Com colaboraço da propria Doudna, Isaacson escreveu a biografia empolgante de uma heroina do nosso tempo (The New York Times), uma voz criativa, ponderada e empenhada em refletir sobre os desafios eticos associados a descoberta da CRISPR-Cas9, cujas consequencias podero ser disruptoras e imprevisiveis.Os elogios da critica:Empolgante.The TimesO codigo da vida e extremamente acessivel a leigos. E isso e importantissimo, porque as questes eticas associadas a utilizaço das CRISPR so pouco claras. [...] Tal como acontece com a inteligencia artificial, o reconhecimento facial e outras tecnologias digitais, o publico deve exercer um papel empenhado em traçar as diretrizes eticas.Bill GatesEste livro brilhante e uma leitura absolutamente necessaria para a nossa era.Siddhartha Mukherjee, medico e vencedor do Premio PulitzerQuer seja bioquimica arcana ou os meandros das patentes, Isaacson explica tudo com a sua habitual prosa lucida: e energico, envolvente e ate divertido. O leitor fica com uma compreenso mais profunda da ciencia e de como e desenvolvida.The Washington PostHabilmente escrito, transmitindo a historia das CRISPR, toca tambem temas mais latos: a natureza da descoberta, o desenvolvimento da biotecnologia e o equilibrio tenue entre competiço e colaboraço, que motiva grande parte dos cientistas.New York Review of BooksUm livro essencial sobre o proximo grande acontecimento cientifico - e mais uma biografia de alta qualidade por parte de Isaacson.Kirkus Reviews

Now in his 95th year, James Lovelock has been hailed as "the man who conceived the first wholly new way of looking at life on earth since Charles Darwin? (Independent) and "the most profound scientific thinker of our time? (Literary Review). AA Rough Ride to the Future introduces two new Lovelockian ideas. The first is that three hundred years ago, when Thomas Newcomen invented the steam engine, he was unknowingly beginning what Lovelock calls "accelerated evolution,? a process that is bringing about change on our planet roughly a million times faster than Darwinian evolution. The second is that as part of this process, humanity has the capacity to become the intelligent part of Gaia, the self-regulating earth system whose discovery Lovelock first announced nearly fifty years ago. AA Rough Ride to the Future is also an intellectual autobiography, in which Lovelock reflects on his life as a lone scientist, and askseloquentlywhether his career trajectory is possible in an age of increased bureaucratization. AWe are now changing the atmosphere again, and Lovelock argues that there is little that can be done about this. But instead of feeling guilty, we should recognize what is happening, prepare for change, and ensure that we survive as a species so we can contribute toperhaps even guidethe next evolution of Gaia. The road will be rough, but if we are smart enough, life will continue on earth in some form far into the future.

In our collective memory, the First World War is dominated by men. The sailors, soldiers, airmen and politicians about whom histories are written were male, and the first half of the twentieth century was still a time when a womans place was thought to be in the home. It was not until the Second World War that women would start to play a major role both in the armed forces and in the factories and the fields. Yet there were some women who were able to contribute to the war effort between 1914 and 1918, mostly as doctors and nurses.In Women in the War Zone, Anne Powell has selected extracts from first-hand accounts of the experiences of those female medical personnel who served abroad during the First World War. Covering both the Western and the Eastern Fronts, from Petrograd to Basra and from Antwerp to the Dardanelles, they include nursing casualties from the Battle of Ypres, a young doctor put in charge of a remote hospital in Serbia and a nurse who survived a torpedo attack, albeit with serious injuries.Filled with stories of bravery and kindliness, it is a book that honours the often unsung contribution made by the female doctors and nurses who helped to alleviate some of the suffering of the First World War.

Its hard to imagine a history of British engineering without Rolls-Royce: there would be no Silver Ghost, no Merlin for the Spitfire, no Alcock and Brown. Rolls-Royce is one of the most recognisable brands in the world.But what of the man who designed them?The youngest of five children, Frederick Henry Royce was born into almost Dickensian circumstances: the family business failed by the time he was 4, his father died in a Greenwich poorhouse when he was 9, and he only managed two fragmented years of formal schooling. But he made all of it count.In Sir Henry Royce: Establishing Rolls-Royce, from Motor Cars to Aero Engines, acclaimed aeronautical historian Peter Reese explores the life of an almost forgotten genius, from his humble beginnings to his greatest achievements. Impeccably researched and featuring almost 100 illustrations, this is the remarkable story of British success on a global stage.

An extraordinary history - Peter Ackroyd, The TimesA lively account of (Bazalgettes) magnificent achievements. . . graphically illustrated - Hermione HobhouseHalliday is good on sanitary engineering and even better on cloaca, crud and putrefaction . . . (he) writes with the relish of one who savours his subject and has deeply researched it. . . splendidly illustrated - Ruth RendellIn the sweltering summer of 1858, sewage generated by over two million Londoners was pouring into the Thames, producing a stink so offensive that it drove Members of Parliament from the chamber of the House of Commons.The Times called the crisis The Great Stink. Parliament had to act drastic measures were required to clean the Thames and to improve Londons primitive system of sanitation. The great engineer entrusted with this enormous task was Sir Joseph Bazalgette, who rose to the challenge and built the system of intercepting sewers, pumping stations and treatment works that serves London to this day. In the process, he cleansed the Thames and helped banish cholera.The Great Stink of London offers a vivid insight into Bazalgettes achievements and the era in which he worked and lived, including his heroic battles with politicians and bureaucrats that would transform the face and health of the worlds then largest city.
