For those who could read between the lines, the censored news out of China was terrifying. But the president insisted there was nothing to worry about. Fortunately, we are still a nation of skeptics. Fortunately, there are those among us who study pandemics and are willing to look unflinchingly at worst-case scenarios. Michael Lewis’ taut and brilliant nonfiction thriller pits a band of medical visionaries against the wall of ignorance that was the official response of the Trump administration to the outbreak of COVID-19.

Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease - a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease.

In 2006, the Wall Street pioneer and philanthropist Ray Chambers flicked through some holiday snapshots taken by a friend and remarked on the placid beauty of a group of sleeping Malawian children. "They're not sleeping," his friend told him. "They're in malarial comas. A few days later, they were all dead." This moment sparked Chambers' determination to coordinate an unprecedented, worldwide effort to eradicate a disease that has haunted humanity since before the advent of medicine.

Dr. Warraich takes a broader look at how we die today, from the cellular level up to the very definition of death itself.

Pandemia é uma epidemia de grandes proporções. Os cientistas temem que a humanidade seja vítima de uma pandemia capaz de matar dezenas e até centenas de milhões de pessoas no mundo todo. Para que isto aconteça basta que apareça uma doença que combine enorme capacidade de contaminação (de preferência antes de os sintomas aparecerem) com poder para matar grande número de pacientes infectados. A grande concentração urbana que caracteriza a humanidade em nossa época (ao contrário do que aconteceu quando das grandes febres do começo do século XX) facilita a propagação.

When the AIDS epidemic hit in the early 1980s, Strub was living in New York and soon found himself attending "more funerals than birthday parties". Scared and angry, he turned to radical activism to combat discrimination and demand research. Strub takes you through his own diagnosis and inside ACT UP, the organization that transformed a stigmatized cause into one of the defining political movements of our time.

Névralgie cervico-brachiale, polyarthrite, fibromyalgie, endométriose... Ces maladies toutes plus mystérieuses les unes que les autres ont un point commun : des douleurs chroniques, et l'impuissance du patient à trouver du soulagement et au corps médical à proposer des nouvelles pistes. L'errance diagnostique est souvent la règle : on sait qu'on a mal, souvent, beaucoup et depuis longtemps, sans savoir ce qu'on a ! On s'interroge, et souvent, on s'entend dire « mais non tu n'as rien, c'est dans ta tête ! »

According to veterinarian and journalist Mark Walters, we are contributing to - if not overtly causing - some of the scariest epidemics of our time. Through human stories and cutting-edge science, Walters explores the origins of seven diseases: Mad Cow Disease, HIV/AIDS, Salmonella DT104, Lyme Disease, Hantavirus, West Nile, and new strains of flu. He shows that they originate from manipulation of the environment, from emitting carbon and clear-cutting forests to feeding naturally herbivorous cows “recycled animal protein.”

Dormir es uno de los aspectos más importantes pero menos comprendidos de nuestra vida. Hasta hace muy poco, la ciencia no tenía respuesta a la pregunta de por qué dormimos, para qué sirve el sueño o por qué sufrimos consecuencias devastadoras para la salud cuando está ausente.

El murciélago la lio parda. Eso es indudable. ¿Quién iba a imaginar que meterlo en una sopa iba a traer un apocalipsis Covid como la que estamos viviendo?

In 1997, Bella Bathurst began to go deaf. Within a few months, she had lost half her hearing, and the rest was slipping away. She wasn't just missing punchlines, she was missing most of the conversation - and all of the jokes. For the next 12 years deafness shaped her life, until, in 2009, everything changed again. Sound draws on this extraordinary experience, exploring what it is like to lose your hearing and - as Bella eventually did - to get it back.

American taxpayers spend $30 billion annually funding biomedical research, but over half of these studies can't be replicated due to poor experimental design, improper methods, and sloppy statistics. Bad science doesn't just hold back medical progress, it can sign the equivalent of a death sentence for terminal patients. In Rigor Mortis, Richard Harris explores these urgent issues with vivid anecdotes, personal stories, and interviews with the top biomedical researchers. We need to fix our dysfunctional biomedical system - before it's too late.
