A Place like No Other - Anthony R. E. Sinclair
From famed zoologist Anthony Sinclair, an account of his decades-long quest to understand one of Earth's most spectacular ecosystemsWith its rich biodiversity, astounding wildlife, and breathtaking animal migrations, Serengeti is like no other ecosystem on the planet. A Place like No Other is Anthony Sinclair's firsthand account of how he and other scientists discovered the biological principles that regulate life in Serengeti and how they rule all of the natural world. When Sinclair first began studying this spectacular ecosystem in 1965, a host of questions confronted him. What environmental features make its annual migration possible? What determines the size of animal populations and the stunning diversity of species? What factors enable Serengeti to endure over time? In the five decades that followed, Sinclair and others sought answers. What they learned is that seven principles of regulation govern all natural processes in the Serengeti ecosystem. Sinclair shows how these principles can help us to understand and overcome the challenges facing Serengeti today, and how they can be used to repair damaged habitats throughout the world. Blending vivid storytelling with invaluable scientific insights from Sinclair's pioneering fieldwork in Africa, A Place like No Other reveals how Serengeti holds timely lessons for the ...

The Antifa Comic Book - Gord Hill
When it was first published in 2018, Gord Hill''s The Antifa Comic Book was heralded for its searing imagery documenting the history of fascism and anti-fascist movements over the last century. In the years since its publication, the term ''antifa'' has been co-opted by the right to falsely describe far-left political extremism and even terrorism. But the role played by antifa movements in fighting fascism and racism around the world remains as relevant and important as ever. For this expanded edition, Gord Hill adds new material depicting more recent flashpoints of fascist activity, including the January 6, 2021, US Capitol attack, the murderous spree by Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik, the infamous 2022 Canadian convoy protests, and Islamophobic and anti-migrant sentiment in a growing number of fascist governments in Europe. At the same time, Hill depicts the important work being done by anti-fascist individuals and organizations to combat this worrisome trend, made all the more crucial by Donald Trump''s return to the White House. Powerful and inspiring, The Antifa Comic Book is an important reminder of fascism in our midst and what can be done to stop it.

Lifespan - Dr David A. Sinclair
In this paradigm-shifting book from acclaimed Harvard Medical School doctor and one of TIME Magazine’s 100 most influential people on earth, Dr. David Sinclair reveals that everything we think we know about ageing is wrong, and shares the surprising, scientifically-proven methods that can help readers live younger, longer.For decades, the medical community has looked to a variety of reasons for why we age, and the consensus is that no one dies of old age; they die of age-related diseases. That''s because ageing is not a disease – it is inevitable.But what if everything you think you know about ageing is wrong?What if ageing is a disease? And that disease is curable.In Lifespan, Dr David A. Sinclair, one of the world’s foremost authorities on genetics and ageing, argues just that. He has dedicated his life’s work to chasing more than a longer lifespan – he wants to enable people to live longer, healthier, and disease-free well into our hundreds. In this book, he reveals a bold new theory of ageing, one that pinpoints a root cause of ageing that lies in an ancient genetic survival circuit.

The Jungle - Upton Sinclair
One of the most powerful, provocative and enduring novels to expose social injustice ever published in the United States, Upton Sinclair''s The Jungle contains an introduction by Ronald Gottesman in Penguin Classics.Upton Sinclair''s dramatic and deeply moving story exposed the brutal conditions in the Chicago stockyards at the turn of the nineteenth century and brought into sharp moral focus the appalling odds against which immigrants and other working people struggled for their share of the American Dream. Denounced by the conservative press as an un-American libel on the meatpacking industry, and condemned for Sinclair''s unabashed promotion of Socialism and unionisation as a solution to the exploitation of workers, the book was championed by more progressive thinkers, including then President Theodore Roosevelt, and was a major catalyst to the passing of the Pure Food and Meat Inspection act, which has tremendous impact to this day.Upton Sinclair (1878-1968) was born into an impoverished Baltimore family, the son of an alcoholic liquor salesman. At fifteen, he began writing a series of dime novels to pay for his education at the City College of New York, and he was later accepted to do graduate work at Columbia. While there, he published a number of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Koniec starnutia - David Sinclair
Je zdanlivo nepopierateľnou pravdou, že starnutie je nevyhnutné. Avšak čo ak všetko, čomu sme sa naučili veriť o starnutí, je nesprávne? Dr. David Sinclair, popredný svetový odborník na genetiku a dlhovekosť, v tejto knihe odhaľuje, že starnutie je choroba, ktorá sa dá liečiť. Jeho kniha otvára oči, provokuje a zavedie nás do prvej línie výskumu, ktorý posúva hranice nášho vnímania vedeckých obmedzení a odhaľuje neuveriteľné objavy. Mnohé z nich pochádzajú z vlastného laboratória Dr. Davida Sinclaira na Harvarde a ukazujú, ako môžeme spomaliť alebo dokonca zvrátiť starnutie. Kľúčom je aktivácia novoobjavených génov vitality, potomkov starobylého genetického obvodu prežitia, ktorý je príčinou starnutia a zároveň kľúčovým faktorom jeho zvrátenia. Nedávne experimenty v oblasti genetického preprogramovania naznačujú, že v blízkej budúcnosti sa možno budeme môcť nielen cítiť mladší, ale aj skutočne omladnúť.

Pojem práva - H. L. A. Hart
Herbert Lionel Adolphus Hart (1907-1992), někdejší profesor právní teorie Oxfordské univerzity, patří mezi nejvýznamnější postavy právní filozofie 20. století a jeho kniha Pojem práva radikálním způsobem změnila tradiční pohledy na právo a jeho vztah k morálce i politice, na pojem přirozeného práva a spravedlnosti i na právní metodologii. Kromě pražského rodáka Hanse Kelsena bychom asi stěží hledali jiného právního teoretika, jehož jméno se stalo synonymem celého jednoho proudu právního myšlení - tzv. analytické jurisprudence. Od roku 1961, kdy byla kniha Pojem práva poprvé publikovaná, inspirovala několik generaci právníků, filozofů i politologů a bez nadsázky lze říci, že dějiny angloamerické právní filozofie a teorie posledních téměř pěti desetiletí jsou do značné míry obdobím kritického vyrovnávání se s Hartovou koncepci práva jako systému primárních a sekundárních pravidel. Hartovy slavné polemiky s americkým právním teoretikem Lonem L. Fullerem, v nichž se originálním způsobem oživil spor mezi pozitivním a přirozeným právem, měly rozhodující význam pro tak rozmanité školy právního myšleni, jaké představuje například dílo Ronalda Dworkina, Josepha Raze nebo Neila MacCormicka. Hartova schopnost skloubit tradiční právní dogmatiku s lingvistickými a sociologickými metodami působí i dnes mimořádně přesvědčivě a svěže. H. L. A. Hart však nebyl autorem jediné knihy a například jeho studie Law, Liberty ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Party Wars - Barbara Sinclair
Party Wars is the first book to describe how the ideological gulf now separating the two major parties developed and how today's fierce partisan competition affects the political process and national policy.Barbara Sinclair traces the current ideological divide to changes in the Republican party in the 1970s and 1980s, including the rise of neoconservativism and the Religious Right. Because of these historical developments, Democratic and Republican voters today differ substantially in what they consider good public policy, and so do the politicians they elect. Polarization has produced institutional consequences in the House of Representatives and in the Senate - witness the majority party's threat in 2004-2005 to use the ""nuclear option"" of abolishing the filibuster. The president's strategies for dealing with Congress have also been affected, raising the price of compromise with the opposing party and allowing a Republican president to govern largely from the ideological right. Other players in the national policy community - interest groups, think tanks, and the media - have also joined one or the other partisan ""team.""Party Wars puts all the parts together to provide the first government-wide survey of the impact of polarization on national politics. Sinclair pinpoints weaknesses in the highly polarized system ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Berlin - Sinclair McKay
The Sunday Times-bestselling author of Dresden returns with a monumental biography of the city that defined the twentieth century - BerlinThroughout the twentieth century, Berlin stood at the centre of a convulsing world. This history is often viewed as separate acts: the suffering of the First World War, the cosmopolitan city of science, culture and sexual freedom Berlin became, steep economic plunges, the rise of the Nazis, the destruction of the Second World War, the psychosis of genocide, and a city rent in two by competing ideologies. But people do not live their lives in fixed eras. An epoch ends, yet the people continue - or try to continue - much as they did before. Berlin tells the story of the city as seen through the eyes not of its rulers, but of those who walked its streets.In this magisterial biography of a city and its inhabitants, bestselling historian Sinclair McKay sheds new light on well-known characters - from idealistic scientist Albert Einstein to Nazi architect Albert Speer - and draws on never-before-seen first-person accounts to introduce us to people of all walks of Berlin life.

A Best Book of 2023 by the New York Times, Time, The Washington Post, Vulture, Shelf Awareness, Goodreads, Esquire, The Atlantic, NPR, and Barack Obama With echoes of Educated and Born a Crime, How to Say Babylon is the stunning story of the author’s struggle to break free of her rigid Rastafarian upbringing, ruled by her father’s strict patriarchal views and repressive control of her childhood, to find her own voice as a woman and poet.Throughout her childhood, Safiya Sinclair’s father, a volatile reggae musician and militant adherent to a strict sect of Rastafari, became obsessed with her purity, in particular, with the threat of what Rastas call Babylon, the immoral and corrupting influences of the Western world outside their home. He worried that womanhood would make Safiya and her sisters morally weak and impure, and believed a woman’s highest virtue was her obedience. In an effort to keep Babylon outside the gate, he forbade almost everything. In place of pants, the women in her family were made to wear long skirts and dresses to cover their arms and ...

The Deadly Balance - Adam Hart
The predators that can hunt, kill and eat us occupy a unique place in the human psyche. In this book, Adam Hart looks at our relationship with these animals from a conservation perspective.Whether it''s lions in Africa, tigers in India or sharks in the world’s oceans, we are fascinated by – and often terrified of – predators. Animals that can hunt, kill, and eat us occupy a unique place in the human psyche, and for good reason. Predation forms a big part of our evolutionary history, but in the modern world there are many people who live alongside animals that can, and sometimes do, make them prey.In The Deadly Balance, biologist Adam Hart explores the complex relationships we have with predators, and investigates what happens when humans become prey. From big cats to army ants, via snakes, bears, wolves, crocodiles, piranhas and more, Hart busts some myths and explores the science behind such encounters. Despite their fearsome and often wildly exaggerated reputations, these animals have far more to fear from us than we do from them. By probing the latest conservation science, Hart explores how we might both conserve the world''s predators and live safely alongside them.

The Pharmacy is an extended exploration of family, loss, and the indignities of British medical institutions. Building a landscape that is at once influenced by autotheory, life experience of care, and a fervent critique of austerity, this is a fiery second collection from Kat Sinclair.The poems of Kat Sinclair''s The Pharmacy ''cannot write through / as (they) are supposed to'', but struggle to stand, love, grieve, wriggle, spit jokes from within brutal desiccated infrastructures, learning machines, the last things left to be stolen away from us.
