Few people know much about stem cell research beyond the ethical questions raised by using embryos. But in the last decade, stem cell research has made huge advances toward eliminating some of our most intractable diseases. Now this sweeping and accessible book introduces us to this cutting-edge science, which will revolutionize medicine and change the way we think about and treat disease.

When we think of the forces driving cancer, we don’t necessarily think of evolution. But evolution and cancer are closely linked, for the historical processes that created life also created cancer. The Cheating Cell delves into this extraordinary relationship, and shows that by understanding cancer’s evolutionary origins, researchers can come up with more effective, revolutionary treatments.

Understanding the Cell is a college introductory-level audiobook in a conversational manner. Within each section key words and concepts are introduced, discussed, and then reviewed. The audio format allows students to make the most of their time by giving them the freedom to study by listening.

This serves as the second book in the Basics of Biology series. In this segment, the functions of membranes are explored. With regards to fully understanding biological organisms, the cell membrane is essential to developing an understanding of how cell function to control the substance that enter and exit them along with they way in which they interact with their environment.

Written by experts and authorities in the field and professionally narrated for easy listening, this crash course is a valuable tool both during school and when preparing for the USMLE, or if you're simply interested in the subject of cell biology and histology. The audio is focused and high-yield, covering the most important topics you might expect to learn in a typical medical school cell biology and histology course. Included are both capsule and detailed explanations of critical issues and topics you must know to master cell biology and histology.

Blaze a new trail of discovery in biochemistry. Nearly a half a century after the introduction of the idea that humanity lives in a universe at the just-right location, the just-right time, and with the just-right physical constants, the anthropic principle continues to gain acceptance among...

In The Rise of Yeast, Nicholas P. Money argues that we cannot ascribe too much importance to yeast, and that its discovery and controlled use profoundly altered human history. Humans knew what yeast did long before they knew what it was. It was not until Louis Pasteur's experiments in the 1860s that scientists even acknowledged its classification as a fungus. A compelling blend of science, history, and sociology, The Rise of Yeast explores the rich, strange, and utterly symbiotic relationship between people and yeast.

Your body is teeming with tens of trillions of microbes. It’s an entire world, a colony full of life. In other words, you contain multitudes. These microscopic companions sculpt our organs, protect us from diseases, guide our behaviour, and bombard us with their genes. They also hold the key...

Why do we get cancer? Is it our modern diets and unhealthy habits? Chemicals in the environment? An unwelcome genetic inheritance? Or is it just bad luck? The answer is all of these and none of them. We get cancer because we can’t avoid it - it’s a bug in the system of life itself.

The simplest guide to the science of life - ever How do vaccines work? What is special about stem cells? How did we evolve from bacteria? The science of life can be dauntingly complex, and it can be hard to separate "good" science from "bad", fundamental truths from the much-hyped breakthroughs...

This will explain what we mean by stem cell therapy. This was designed to be a presentation to an audience of mainly healthcare providers to interest them in participating in clinical trials on an instrument that obtains the product. It introduces what stem cell therapy is, what it contains, and how it relates to stem cells. The general population will get a good idea as to what we mean when we talk about regenerative treatment using stem cells.

In the book Diet and Health, I explained what brought us to our current state of 40 percent obesity in the Western world. My goal is to prevent type 2 diabetes, and to do that, I have to prevent obesity. I compared our historical diet to the modern Western diet, and showed how the modern diet has induced insulin resistance. I offered treatment for those who are obese or have pre-diabetes. I then described the various maintenance diets. If you already have type 2 diabetes, I can help you control it.

Cancer has always been with us. It killed our hominid ancestors, the mammals they evolved from and the dinosaurs that trampled the ground before that. Tumours grow in pets, livestock and wild animals. Even tiny jelly-like Hydra - creatures that are little more than a tube full of water - can get cancer. Paradoxically, many of us think of cancer as a contemporary killer, a disease of our own making caused by our modern lifestyles.
