Story
John Tyler Bonner, one of our most distinguished and insightful biologists, here challenges a central tenet of evolutionary biology. In this concise, elegantly written book, he makes the bold and provocative claim that some biological diversity may be explained by something other than natural selection. With his customary wit and accessible style, Bonner makes an argument for the underappreciated role that randomness - or chance - plays in evolution.

Story
Che cos'è il dolore? Dove si situa? È uguale nelle femmine e nei maschi? È presente negli animali? Il libro risponde a queste e alle altre domande che riguardano l'esperienza negativa di certo più comune provata da tutti svariate volte nella vita. Al contempo il dolore rimane però un enigma difficile da comprendere a fondo, poiché rappresenta un vissuto personale che appartiene solo alla sfera privata. Il fattore fondamentale è che esso non è mai uguale: chi sta leggendo queste righe lo percepisce differentemente da qualsiasi altro individuo.

Story
Basata sulle più recenti scoperte scientifiche, questa biografia racconta vita, morte e miracoli dei nostri lontani antenati. È una storia avventurosa, divertente, drammatica, sulle diverse specie umane che hanno popolato la Terra e che hanno lasciato tracce nei nostri geni. Anche noi, ultimi sopravvissuti, siamo stati sull'orlo dell'estinzione. Poi abbiamo conquistato il mondo, grazie ad una particolare caratteristica della nostra mente. In Homo sapiens si racconta anche la vita dei bambini, delle donne e delle prime società umane dell'ultima era glaciale.

Story
Sebbene esista la convinzione che parlare alle piante ne favorisca la crescita, sembra tuttavia alquanto strano immaginare che le piante abbiano una vita mentale. Se però consideriamo che pensare non è altro che la capacità di recepire stimoli dall'ambiente, elaborarli e mettere in atto strategie per sopravvivere, allora possiamo ritenere che le piante abbiano una qualche forma di pensiero e intelligenza. L'autore ci introduce nel mondo delle piante e ne svela i segreti.

Saviez-vous que le loup dominant d'une meute est aussi le meilleur des pères pour sa progéniture ? Et qu'un cheval connait votre état d'esprit rien qu'à vous regarder marcher vers lui ? Connaissez-vous le curieux rituel olfactif des rhinocéros et des lémuriens en cas de confrontation ? Profiter de la vie, cultiver sa chance, coopérer avec les autres, s'adapter aux circonstances, renoncer à l'ego.

Depuis l'apparition d'homo sapiens et la révolution cognitive il y a 50 000 ans, les capacités de notre espèce à comprendre et modifier son environnement paraissent sans limites. Un seul mystère reste inviolé : celui de la nature humaine et de sa civilisation. Ce que nous sommes vraiment, pourquoi notre espèce fait ce qu'elle fait, défie toute explication rationnelle.

Story
Our health care system is crippled by desperate efforts to prevent the inevitable. A third of the national Medicare budget - nearly $175 billion - is spent on the final year of life, and a third of that amount on the final month, often on expensive (and futile) treatments. Such efforts betray a fundamental flaw in how we think about healthcare: we squander resources on hopeless situations, instead of using them to actually improve health.

Story
While we joke that men are from Mars and women are from Venus, our gender differences can't compare to those of other animals. For instance: the male garden spider spontaneously dies after mating with a female more than fifty times his size. Female cichlids must guard their eggs and larvae--even from the hungry appetites of their own partners. And male blanket octopuses employ a copulatory arm longer than their own bodies to mate with females that outweigh them by four orders of magnitude. Why do these gender gulfs exist?

Mummie del ghiaccio, delle cripte e delle catacombe, arrivate fino a noi dalle Ande alla Cina. I diversi processi di mummificazione, a cui sono stati sottoposti - per citare tre casi famosi - Ötzi, Tutankhamon, Evita Perón, ci permettono di affondare lo sguardo nelle condizioni di vita degli uomini del passato. Grazie ai metodi più avanzati della bioarcheologia molecolare, inoltre, si può far luce sulle patologie antiche e trarne informazioni importanti sull'evoluzione di alcune malattie del nostro tempo.

Cosa sono le cellule staminali? E perché molti scienziati non si accontentano di studiare le staminali adulte e continuano ad interessarsi alle embrionali? Considerate da molti una speranza per risolvere patologie incurabili, queste cellule sono da qualche anno uno dei temi caldi del dibattito pubblico, poiché le loro potenzialità applicative rappresentano un terreno di scontro tra diverse concezioni etiche, giuridiche e religiose.

Story
Quando e dove è iniziata la vita? E a cosa somigliavano le prime forme di vita? Interrogativi che l'uomo si pone da sempre, per i quali, pur in mancanza di risposte definitive, si possono avanzare alcune ipotesi. Come quella che colloca l'origine della vita intorno a 3,8 miliardi di anni fa, in un contesto riconducibile a uno di questi ambienti: brodo primordiale, campi geotermali, siti di impatto meteoritico. Certo è che le tessere del più grande e affascinante dei puzzle restano RNA, amminoacidi, protogeni, protocellule.

Story
La storia del nostro pianeta è inscindibilmente legata alla storia della vita sulla terra e alla sua straordinaria varietà. Senza la biodiversità la vita scomparirebbe. Nell'immensa comunità naturale di cui facciamo parte essa infatti consente a tutti i suoi componenti di modificarsi moltiplicando le strategie di sopravvivenza per adattarsi alla mutevolezza dei contesti. L'autore analizza dapprima strutture e funzioni della biodiversità - a tutti i livelli della biosfera tra loro interconnessi e complementari - dalle molecole agli organismi, alle specie, agli ecosistemi.

Da sempre l'uomo ha selezionato piante, animali, microrganismi per soddisfare i suoi bisogni. Oggi le biotecnologie avanzate permettono di trasferire geni fra organismi che non è possibile incrociare naturalmente, ma con effetti altamente imprevedibili. Il volume, ripresentato in edizione aggiornata, muove da una descrizione dei meccanismi che regolano il delicato equilibrio alla base della vita e spiega perché occorre essere cauti quando lo si modifica drasticamente.

Siamo abituati a concepire la Storia come il susseguirsi sanguinoso di imperi e dinastie. Ma il cammino dell'uomo può essere studiato anche in ambiti specifici del suo ingegno - nell'arte, nella filosofia o nelle scienze. Questo audiolibro propone una chiave molto stimolante attraverso cui "ricapitolare" la storia dell'umanità: quella che vede l'essenza del nostro genere nell'"essere artefice". Perché, a pensarci bene, dietro ogni passo dell'uomo c'è sempre un'invenzione o un manufatto che ha avuto nei secoli imprevedibili sviluppi.
