The Future of Post-Human Law
Contrary to conventional wisdom, the rule of law has another side. While international courts punish some killers, they turn a blind eye to major powers. This book offers a new theory: there is no justice without injustice, to change how we see law.
The Future of Post-Human Semantics
Is semantics truly indeterminate? Contrary to opposing ideas, this book offers a new theory to go beyond existing approaches. This seminal project will fundamentally change how we think about semantics, with enormous implications for the human future.
The Future of Post-Human Sexuality
Modern sexual freedom is a seductive ideology, blinding us to its dark side. This book offers a radical new way to understand sexuality, with profound implications for the future of humanity.
The Genome of an Organism
This book explains the fundamental processes of evolutionary genetics, such as mutation, natural selection, and speciation. It provides an up-to-date overview of the field, discussing the theories of Darwin and Mendel, adaptation, and the origin of new genes.
This book explores the ghrelin receptor gene (GHSR1a), a key regulator of growth and energy metabolism. It highlights the gene’s unique molecular evolution and how its variations affect growth and fatty acid traits in domestic animals and humans in a sex-dependent fashion.
The God Molecule
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a molecular fossil that tells the story of the evolution of the genetic code and the origin of life. Analysis of its pre-life sequences provides clear insights into how life began and shows why tRNA is required to generate life on Earth or another planet.
The History of Wine as a Medicine
Wine: our oldest medicine. Uncover its 9,500-year history, from its true origins in China to how it can reduce death rates by 50% and dementia by 80%. This groundbreaking book rewrites everything you thought you knew about the health benefits of wine.
This book dissects the science behind climate change, exploring its causes and far-reaching consequences on our world. It unveils essential adaptation and mitigation strategies, equipping readers with the knowledge to understand and address this pressing global challenge.
The Land Agent in Britain
Historians, practitioners and representatives of land agent bodies are brought together to explore the necessary skills of a land agent. The volume traces the development of such skills as farming and entrepreneurialism to look to the post-Brexit future of estates and agents.
The Lochsa Elk Herd
This volume records the history of an elk population that occupies boreal and coniferous forests. After major fires created millions of acres of new habitat, the herd expanded to levels unlikely to be reached again. Elk must be recognized as products of forest disturbance.
A randomized vaccine trial in Senegal compared two high-titer measles vaccines with a standard one. Though initially promising, the high-titer vaccines were not safe, inducing an excess mortality. This book discusses the scientific, ethical, and political issues of the findings.
The Nigerian Cocoa Industry and the International Economy in the 1930s
This monograph uses the Nigerian cocoa industry’s encounter with the world economy of the 1930s to knit together a gamut of themes ranging from the social formations of production to the forces of demand and supply, as well as the protest movements against monopoly capitalism.
Discover the honey bee’s adaptation to environments worldwide. This book explains how the bee colony functions as an integral biological unit to survive long winters and uses specific acoustic and electrical signals for spatial orientation and communication.
