Madness and Genetic Determinism - Patrick D. Hahn - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Madness and Genetic Determinism - Patrick D. Hahn - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

The book covers important topics in the psychiatric genetics (PG) field. Many of these have been overlooked in mainstream accounts, and many contemporary PG researchers have omitted or whitewashed the eugenic and "racial hygiene" origins of the field. The author critically analyzes PG evidence in support of genetic claims which, given the lack of gene discoveries, are based mainly on the results of psychiatric twin and adoption studies. Given that the evidence in favor of genetic influences is much weaker than mainstream sources report, due to serious issues in twin and adoption research, the author points to environmental factors, including trauma, as the main causes of conditions such as schizophrenia.

The Bare Bones - Matthew F. Bonnan - Bog - Indiana University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Bare Bones - Matthew F. Bonnan - Bog - Indiana University Press - Plusbog.dk

What can we learn about the evolution of jaws from a pair of scissors? How does the flight of a tennis ball help explain how fish overcome drag? What do a spacesuit and a chicken egg have in common? Highlighting the fascinating twists and turns of evolution across more than 540 million years, paleobiologist Matthew Bonnan uses everyday objects to explain the emergence and adaptation of the vertebrate skeleton. What can camera lenses tell us about the eyes of marine reptiles? How does understanding what prevents a coffee mug from spilling help us understand the posture of dinosaurs? The answers to these and other intriguing questions illustrate how scientists have pieced together the history of vertebrates from their bare bones. With its engaging and informative text, plus more than 200 illustrative diagrams created by the author, The Bare Bones is an unconventional and reader-friendly introduction to the skeleton as an evolving machine.

A Slice Through Time - M.g.l. Baillie - Bog - Batsford - Plusbog.dk

A Slice Through Time - M.g.l. Baillie - Bog - Batsford - Plusbog.dk

The dramatic development of European oak chronologies over the last ten years parallels and supplements the bristlecone-pine chronology in the United States. Dendrochronologists can now provide a wood sample - a time capsule of biological material - for any calender date over the last seven millennia from two continents. For archaeologists, resigned to the imprecision of radiocarbon dating, the implications are profound. For the first time it is possible to establish precise dates for prehistoric events. Similarly, we have an independent and scientifically objective way of testing historical accounts, such as the traditional Egyptian chronology. Equally fundamental are the insights provided by the related disciplines of dendroecology and dendroclimatology. The Bronze Age eruption of Santorini and the AD 540 `event'' are explored as fascinating case studies. Drawing on a further decade of research by himself and others, Mike Baille not only brings the pre-1980 story up to date, but demonstrates the wide and exciting applications of this comparatively new science.

Children Beware! - Filipa Antunes - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

Children Beware! - Filipa Antunes - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

How does a culture respond when the limits of childhood become uncertain? The emergence of pre-adolescence in the 1980s, which is signified by the new PG-13 rating for film, disrupted the established boundaries between childhood and adulthood. The concept of pre-adolescence affected not only America''s pillar ideals of family and childhood innocence but also the very foundation of the horror genre''s identity, its association with maturity and exclusivity. Cultural disputes over the limits of childhood and horror were explicitly articulated in the children''s horror trend (1980-1997), a cluster of child-oriented horror titles in film and other media, which included Gremlins, The Gate , the Goosebumps series, and others. As the first serious analysis of the children''s horror trend, with a focus on the significance of ratings, this book provides a complete chart of its development while presenting it as a document of American culture''s adaptation to pre-adolescence. Each important children''s horror title corresponds to a key moment of ideological negotiation, cultural power struggles, and industrial compromise.

War and Conflict in the Middle Ages - Morillo - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

War and Conflict in the Middle Ages - Morillo - Bog - John Wiley and Sons Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In War and Conflict in the Middle Ages, Stephen Morillo offers the first global history of armed conflict between 540 and 1500 or as late as 1800 CE, an age shaped by climate change and pandemics at both ends. Examining armed conflict at all levels, and ranging across China and the central Asian steppes to southwest Asia, western Europe, and beyond, Morillo explores the technological, social, cultural, and environmental determinants of warfare and the tools and tactics used by warriors on land and at sea. Part I explains the geographical, political, and technological rules that shaped patterns of military activity everywhere. Part II explores how these rules played out in various historical contexts. Armed conflict played a central role in the making of the medieval world, and medieval people used war and conflict to create, expand, and defend their communities and identities. But the devastating effects of climate change and epidemic disease continually reshaped these communities and the nature of their conflicts. Broad in its scope and rich in detail, War and Conflict in the Middle Ages will be the go-to guide for students and aficionados of military history, medieval history, and global history.
