Story
Most people know that Gregor Mendel, the Moravian monk who patiently grew his peas in a monastery garden, shaped our understanding of inheritance. But people might not know that Mendel's work was ignored in his own lifetime, even though it contained answers to the most pressing questions raised by Charles Darwin's revolutionary book, On Origrin of the Species, published only a few years earlier. Mendel's single chance of recognition failed utterly, and he died a lonely and disappointed man.

Story
Despite extensive evidence highlighting the influence of genetics in the business world, this critical connection has been glossed over by corporate leaders and management gurus. Now, for the first time, author Scott Shane explains why genes matter, and how an understanding of their relationship to behavior is of vital importance to employers, employees, and policy makers.

Story
An extraterrestrial colony, in some form, may already exist, just awaiting discovery. But the greatest impediment to such an important scientific discovery may not be technological, but political. No scientific endeavor can be launched without a budget, and matters of money are within the arena of politicians. Dr. Ben Bova explores some of the key players and the arguments waged in a debate of both scientific and cultural priorities.

Story
La specie umana, unica tra le specie viventi, è in grado di ricostruire la propria storia biologica. Da un lato tutti gli uomini appartengono a una sola specie, dall'altro non esistono due uomini uguali sulla terra, tanto è grande la variabilità genetica tra individuo e individuo. Unica tra le specie è anche la nostra complessa storia culturale e tra le due evoluzioni, biologica e culturale, esistono convergenze ma anche divergenze.

Story
Alla luce delle ricerche più recenti, l'audiolibro introduce i fondamenti della teoria evoluzionistica - formulata da Charles Darwin più di un secolo e mezzo fa - al cui centro stanno tre spinte concomitanti: le sorgenti di variazione, la trasmissibilità di una parte di questa variazione di generazione in generazione, l'azione della selezione naturale nei mutevoli contesti ecologici. Ripercorre poi gli altri meccanismi che oggi integrano ed estendono il nucleo darwiniano della teoria, fino alla comparsa di Homo sapiens, un ramoscello nel ricco "cespuglio" degli ominini.

Una storia prima della storia. Ossa fossili, denti, manufatti, siti preistorici e dati genetici per ricostruire l'evoluzione di un gruppo di scimmie antropomorfe che, intorno a 6 milioni di anni fa, in Africa, intrapresero l'intricato percorso evolutivo che diede origine alla nostra specie.

Story
A vibrant young Hispano woman, Shonnie Medina, inherits a breast-cancer mutation known as BRCA1.185delAG. It is a genetic variant characteristic of Jews. The Medinas knew they were descended from Native Americans and Spanish Catholics, but they did not know that they had Jewish ancestry as well. The mutation most likely sprang from Sephardic Jews hounded by the Spanish Inquisition. The discovery of the gene leads to a fascinating investigation of cultural history and modern genetics by Dr. Harry Ostrer and other experts on the DNA of Jewish populations.

Story
Il volume, in una nuova edizione aggiornata e ampliata, traccia la storia dell'evoluzione umana avvalendosi delle più recenti acquisizioni dell'analisi dei fossili e del DNA. La scoperta di nuove specie estinte e la ricostruzione del genoma dei neandertaliani e di altre specie hanno infatti fornito dati importantissimi. Oggi non sappiamo soltanto che la specie Homo sapiens non può essere suddivisa in razze e che alcuni nostri antichi parenti erano probabilmente in grado di utilizzare un linguaggio complesso simile al nostro, ma anche che in noi sono presenti alcuni dei loro geni.

Story
Noi esseri umani possiamo dirci soddisfatti: siamo la specie dominante su questo pianeta, facciamo avanzare a grandi passi scienza e tecnologia e il nostro progresso sembra infinito. Abbiamo posto noi stessi e la nostra intelligenza al centro dell’universo e stiamo pensando di attribuirci un nuovo nome, Homo deus, per le nostre capacità quasi divine. Eppure, se osserviamo il nostro operato con occhio più disincantato, il nome che ci meritiamo davvero è Homo narcissus, in omaggio al nostro sfrenato egocentrismo e alla nostra incapacità di vederci come parte di un mondo che stiamo devastando.

Story
Com base na arqueogenética, cientistas como Johannes Krause traçaram a rota das ondas migratórias que povoaram o mundo, lançando luz sobre aspectos do passado que até então permaneciam um mistério. Krause e o jornalista Thomas Trappe reescrevem um dos capítulos mais interessantes desse percurso: o povoamento da Europa. Além disso, detalham a cultura dos povos que viviam lá no período pré-histórico, formados por hábeis artesãos, por pessoas que enterravam os mortos com joias de ouro muito antes dos faraós do Egito e por caçadores de grandes animais que pereceram na Era do Gelo.

La natura è più grande di noi perché ha tempi lunghi, anzi lunghissimi, mentre noi siamo su questo pianeta da duecento millenni o poco più. Come rane in un paiolo che non si accorgono di finire lentamente bollite, abbiamo cambiato la geofisiologia della Terra innescando un riscaldamento climatico che riduce la biodiversità e crea instabilità, migranti ambientali e conflitti per le risorse.

Eine faszinierende Vorstellung: Wie wäre es, wenn sich die biologische Uhr, die in jedem von uns tickt, anhalten ließe – oder sogar ein Stück zurückdrehen? Und das nicht bloß gefühlt, sondern messbar? Dieses Versprechen ist seit Kurzem Realität. Der junge Forschungszweig der Epigenetik hat den Deckel von der Altersuhr gehoben – und in aktuellen Studien nun sogar den Sprung in die praktische Anwendung geschafft. Genau darum geht es in diesem Hörbuch: Was kann ich ganz konkret tun, um meine Altersuhr zurückzudrehen? Um wie viele Monate oder gar Jahre lässt sich der Zeiger zurückstellen?
