Ergebnis für "Männer" in Wissenschaft & Technik

Warum wir zynische Geldmacher, egomane Politiker und deren Lügen bekämpfen müssen. Die Welt steckt in der Endphase eines Kulturkampfs: Gier gegen Gerechtigkeit, Zerstörung gegen Nachhaltigkeit, Zynismus gegen Empathie. Nichts zeigt dies deutlicher als die Reaktionen auf die Klimakatastrophe: Hier jene, die versuchen, das Schlimmste zu verhindern, dort jene, die alles tun, um aus dem Verbrennen fossiler Stoffe Profit zu ziehen.

Wie wird ein Mann ein Mann? Oder etwas präziser: Wie wird aus dem, was ein Mann werden könnte, schließlich das, wofür sich der Betreffende aufgrund seines Geschlechts hält? Diese Frage beschäftigt den Biologen, Hirnforscher und Bestsellerautor Gerald Hüther in seinem neuen Buch. Die wichtigste Erkenntnis der Hirnforschung lautet: Das menschliche Gehirn ist weitaus formbarer, in seiner inneren Struktur und Organisation anpassungsfähiger, als bisher gedacht. Auch das von Männern.

Chronische Krankheiten rückgängig machen und sogar heilen? Mithilfe von Neuroplastizität ist das möglich! Dank der Neuroplastizität ist unser Gehirn in der Lage, die Art und Weise, wie es Aktivitäten und mentale Erfahrungen aufnimmt und verarbeitet, selbsttätig zu verändern. In seinem Buch berichtet Norman Doidge, Psychiater und Psychoanalytiker, von den erstaunlichen Fortschritten einer zweiten Generation von Neuroplastikern und vielen Patienten, die davon schon profitiert haben. Jede Geschichte im Hörbuch zeigt eine besondere Facette der neuroplastischen Heilungsmöglichkeiten.

The conditions that allowed humans to live on this earth are fragile, incredibly so. Climate variability has at times created new niches that humans or their ancestors could potentially exploit, and challenges that at times have spurred innovation. But there’s a relatively narrow envelope of climate variability within which human civilization remains viable. And our survival depends on conditions remaining within that range. In this book, renowned climate scientist Michael Mann will arm listeners with the knowledge necessary to appreciate the gravity of the unfolding climate crisis.

Traditionally, Americans learned in school that the ancestors of the people who inhabited the Western Hemisphere at the time of Columbus' landing had crossed the Bering Strait 12,000 years ago; existed mainly in small nomadic bands; and lived so lightly on the land that the Americas were, for all practical purposes, still a vast wilderness. But as Charles C. Mann now makes clear, archaeologists and anthropologists have spent the last 30 years proving these and many other long-held assumptions wrong.

A renowned climate scientist shows how fossil fuel companies have waged a thirty-year campaign to deflect blame and responsibility and delay action on climate change, and offers a battle plan for how we can save the planet.

Geoffrey West's research centres on a quest to find unifying principles and patterns connecting everything, from cells and ecosystems to cities, social networks and businesses. Scale addresses big, urgent questions about global sustainability, population explosion, urbanization, ageing, cancer, human life spans and the increasing pace of life but also encourages us to question the world around us.

Mit Mytting wird aus einem nostalgischen Gefühl eine Bewegung, eine sinnliche Erfahrung, eine Leidenschaft, die nicht nur den Praktiker im Wald, sondern auch den "Armchair Woodsman" zu Hause erfasst. Wussten Sie, dass der höchste Holzverbrauch aus Butan gemeldet wird – und nicht etwa aus Skandinavien oder Russland? Dass die Bäume für das beste Brennholz im Frühjahr gefällt werden? Dass es einen Unterschied macht, ob Holz "Borke oben" oder "Borke unten" gestapelt wird? Dass der Holzstapel Rückschlüsse auf den Charakter des Staplers zulässt? Aprikosenholz brennt anders als Mandelholz.

More than 200 million years ago, geological forces split apart the continents. Isolated from each other, the two halves of the world developed radically different suites of plants and animals. When Christopher Columbus set foot in the Americas, he ended that separation at a stroke. Driven by the economic goal of establishing trade with China, he accidentally set off an ecological convulsion as European vessels carried thousands of species to new homes across the oceans.

Evolution is one of the most important processes in life. It not only explains the detailed history of life on earth, but its scope also extends into many aspects of our own contemporary behavior - who we are and how we got to be here, our psychology, our cultures - and greatly impacts modern advancements in medicine and conservation biology. Perhaps its most important claim for science is its ability to provide an overarching framework that integrates the many life sciences into a single unified whole. Yet, evolution has been, and continues to be, regarded with suspicion by many.

In 40 years, Earth's population will reach 10 billion. Can our world support that? What kind of world will it be? Those answering these questions generally fall into two deeply divided groups - Wizards and Prophets, as Charles Mann calls them in this balanced, authoritative, nonpolemical new book. The Prophets, he explains, follow William Vogt, a founding environmentalist who believed that in using more than our planet has to give, our prosperity will lead us to ruin.

Visionary physicist Geoffrey West is a pioneer in the field of complexity science, the science of emergent systems and networks. The term complexity can be misleading, however, because what makes West's discoveries so beautiful is that he has found an underlying simplicity that unites the seemingly complex and diverse phenomena of living systems, including our bodies, our cities, and our businesses.

The award-winning climate scientist Michael E. Mann and the Pulitzer Prize-winning political cartoonist Tom Toles have been on the front lines of the fight against climate denialism for most of their careers. They have witnessed the manipulation of the media by business and political interests and the unconscionable play to partisanship on issues that affect the well-being of billions. The lessons they have learned have been invaluable, inspiring this brilliant escape hatch from the madhouse of the climate wars.

Physiology is the science of life, and sets out to understand how living things work and what makes them distinct from the non-living. It considers how our bodies are supplied with energy, how they maintain their internal parameters, the ways in which we gather and process information, the ways we take action, and the creation of new generations.

In this Very Short Introduction audiobook, Richard Earl gives a sense of the more visual elements of topology (looking at surfaces) as well as covering the formal definition of continuity. Considering some of the eye-opening examples that led mathematicians to recognize a need for studying topology, he pays homage to the historical people, problems, and surprises that have propelled the growth of this field.
