Автор: Lesley DuTemple Название: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Life Science Издательство: Alpha Год: 2000 ISBN: 0028631994 Серия: The Complete Idiot's Guide Язык: English Формат: pdf Размер: 10,4 mb Страниц: 352
The most exciting thing about biology in this day and age is the rapid progress that we are making in understanding our natural world. The results of our new knowledge are already making themselves known in the form of more nutritious foodstuffs, innovative treatments for diseases, and a better understanding of how ecological systems work. Whether or not you develop a professional interest in biology, you may well wish to be clued in as the public debate addresses a huge variety of issues growing out of our new knowledge in biology.
The questions are only just beginning. How should genetic engineering be applied to improve foods and develop new pharmaceuticals? Should the remaining carefully stored stocks of the smallpox virus be obliterated or saved? How will you balance your interest in protecting your medical privacy against the improved medical care that will come of knowing your complete genome? What will stem cells mean to your health as you age?
This book will give you a general overview of the entire field of biology. Use it as your only source, or use it as a portal into some of its interesting stories, but either way, you'll learn things that will deepen your understanding of your own world and that can put into context some of the new information about discoveries and threats to our health and ecosystem that you hear about in the news.
