Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In the Philippine coastal town of San Vicente, the Patron Saint's fiesta is about to collide with a typhoon. And somehow, that's the least of their problems. There's Don Raul, the aging, prideful mayor who is determined to stop a super-typhoon with sheer political will; his calculating daug…hter, Carla, who sees the disaster as the perfect backdrop for a very lucrative engagement; Liam, the artist obsessed with filming 'The True Filipino Soul' but can't find a clean restroom; and Sergio, the poor sap who just needs to find the town's escaped, raffle-winning pig, Pogi.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Resistance Rising: Genetics, Evolution, and the Future of Infectious Disease examines the origins and genetic foundations of infectious diseases, focusing on the escalating threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Microbes are not passive adversaries; they evolve, adapt, and share resistanc…e genes through mutation, horizontal gene transfer, and mobile genetic elements such as plasmids, transposons, and bacteriophages. These processes allow pathogens to survive under selective pressures, including those imposed by human activity.The emergence and spread of resistance is accelerated by the widespread use (and often misuse) of antimicrobials in medicine, agriculture, and environmental systems. Residual antibiotics in soil, water, and waste create ecotoxic stress, fostering evolutionary responses that strengthen microbial survival. This book situates AMR within a co-evolutionary framework, emphasizing that humans and microbes have long shaped each other's evolutionary trajectories. By understanding these dynamics, we can move beyond reactive strategies aimed solely at eradication toward proactive measures that guide microbial populations toward less harmful forms.Pollo explores the communal nature of microbes, emphasizing how interactions within biofilms, bacterial communities, and broader ecosystems facilitate gene transfer and resistance proliferation. Resistance, therefore, is not merely a medical problem; it is a systems-level phenomenon. Networks of organisms, environments, and human societies all interact, producing outcomes that require an integrated approach combining genetics, ecology, and public health.Drawing on historical case studies and contemporary research, Resistance Rising illustrates the patterns of resistance emergence and the human role in shaping microbial evolution. From multidrug-resistant tuberculosis to beta-lactamase-producing bacteria, the text demonstrates how genetic mechanisms and environmental pressures converge to produce global health challenges. It advocates for strategies that reduce selective pressures, limit environmental contamination, and emphasize evolutionary stewardship rather than short-term interventions.The book further highlights the ethical and practical responsibilities of humans in the ongoing evolutionary "arms race." Every antimicrobial introduced into the environment, every misuse in medicine or agriculture, has consequences that ripple through microbial populations. Recognizing these impacts allows for informed interventions that respect the complexity of microbial ecology while preserving the efficacy of life-saving medicines.Accessible yet scientifically rigorous, Resistance Rising bridges the gap between genetics, evolutionary biology, and systems thinking. It invites researchers, healthcare professionals, policymakers, and informed readers to consider the long-term consequences of human activity on microbial evolution. In the words of Theodosius Dobzhansky, "Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution." This book provides that evolutionary lens, revealing how humanity can navigate a future shaped by microbes, genetics, and resistance with foresight, responsibility, and strategic action.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Currents of Protection: Coagulation, Complement, and Neutrophils is a work of creative nonfiction that journeys across science, history, and the humanities to understand the deep entanglement of blood and defense. At its heart is the "triangle" of coagulation, complement, and neutrophils. Th…e three intertwined systems that seal wounds, fight microbes, and sacrifice themselves for the survival of the body. Yet the book insists that this triangle cannot be understood within the laboratory alone. Its story stretches across species, across time, and across the meanings humans have attached to blood.The opening chapters introduce the triangle of blood and defense, then expand outward into comparative evolution, showing how clotting and immunity appear not only in humans but also in fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals, and even how extremophiles adapt their protective currents to hostile environments. From there, the narrative shifts from biology to history: the blood sciences across time, tracing how ancient physicians, alchemists, and natural philosophers imagined blood's power, and how folk knowledge. The book also reaches deep into prehistory, reconstructing the origins of blood and defense in deep time, then following their arc through human development, from the fetus in the womb to the aged body where protective systems falter. It confronts the darker side of protection, where coagulation, complement, and neutrophils (meant to preserve life) turn against the host, driving autoimmunity, thrombosis, and inflammatory storms. This book contains various chapters on: intervention, where medicine bends these currents through anticoagulants, immunotherapies, and transfusion sciences; semiotics, where symbols, rituals, and metaphors shape cultural understanding; and reconstitution, where gene editing, synthetic biology, and future medicine imagine new forms of protection altogether.Weaving together molecular biology with anthropology and medical history, Currents of Protection invites readers to see blood not only as fluid but as narrative, as system, and as symbol. It is at once a primer on the science of clotting and immunity, a comparative study of defense across the tree of life, and a meditation on what it means to protect and be protected.For scientists, it offers clarity; for historians, context; for physicians, reflection; for general readers, a story that runs as deeply as blood itself.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Tuazon ancestral home in Manila is not falling down. It is simply. re-interpreting gravity. The patriarch refuses to acknowledge the 15-degree tilt. Meanwhile, his wife, Dona Marga, is preserving the family legacy by hermetically sealing the leftovers of every meal since 1998. Their daug…hter Clara is waiting for a fiance who may or may not exist, and their son Nonoy is charting a map of the living room floor to avoid the spots where the marble cracks under the weight of disappointment. But when a team of "modern" contractors arrives to shore up the building, the Tuazons must decide what to save: the house, or the lie that keeps them upright. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Isagani is a man who prefers the company of clay to the company of people. This is mostly because clay pots rarely ask him why he is thirty-four and still single. As the proprietor of a repair shop that smells perpetually of dried tea leaves and varnish, Isagani specializes in the art of fix…ing things that others have given up on. Here is a gentle, atmospheric novel for anyone who has ever looked at a broken plate and thought, "I can work with this". This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. What does it mean to call someone, something, or even an entire institution phony? The word belongs to everyday speech, muttered in private, shouted in protest, and scribbled in notebooks. Yet it cuts to the core of our deepest disappointments. To name phoniness is to expose the painful gap…between what is said and what is meant, between the performance of sincerity and the reality of conviction.In this work, Phonies: Authenticity Performance Fakery offers the first sustained exploration of phoniness as a structural condition of human life. From the staged emotions of Hollywood blockbusters to the hollow rhetoric of election seasons, from fraudulent financial schemes to viral deepfakes, from greenwashed corporate pledges to the betrayals of intimacy, phoniness emerges not as a passing annoyance but as the shadow cast by human communication itself.The book moves across domains with narrative force: Literature and art, where style sometimes replaces substance. Politics, where spectacle can eclipse governance. Economics, where speculative bubbles mirror the illusion of value. Media and technology, where reality blurs with fabrication. Institutions, where rituals risk becoming self-parodies. Intimacy, where words of love may hollow into cliches. Drawing on real-world scandals, novels, films, and digital phenomena, the text builds toward this argument: all human expression is mediated; mediation creates the possibility of phoniness; therefore, phoniness is structural and unavoidable. Yet rather than resign us to cynicism, the book insists that authenticity remains indispensable. If phoniness shadows us, authenticity illuminates us, however fleetingly. Remedies (e.g., transparency, verification, reform) can never abolish phoniness but can restrain its excesses, preserving the fragile possibility of sincerity.Written in a narrative style accessible to scientists, social theorists, and general readers alike, this treatise unifies analytic clarity with cultural reflection. It situates phoniness not as a trivial insult but as a dilemma that touches politics, love, art, faith, and technology. At once rigorous and lyrical, Phonies speaks to our contemporary moment while reaching beyond it. It is a book for readers disillusioned by institutions yet still hungry for meaning; for those who have named phoniness in frustration but long for a deeper understanding; and for anyone who wonders whether authenticity remains possible in an age of spectacle.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "This sculpture interrogates the liminality of post-industrial silence."Translation: It's a rusted radiator in a white room, and it costs more than your mortgage. If you've ever stood in a gallery feeling like a philistine because you didn't "get" a pile of bricks, or if you've ever lived in… a "machine for living" that felt more like a "container for misery", you've been a victim of the pseudoprofound.In Gilded Shell, I comment on the aesthetic gaslighting of the modern era. From the leaking roofs of modernist icons to the semantic acrobatics of the avant-garde, I contend that true profundity shouldn't require a 500-page manual to be felt.It's time to stop nodding politely at the "invisible suit" and start trusting your eyes again in this age of high-brow nonsense.
