Interesting Facts about the Heart
1. Heart and circulatory diseases cause a quarter of all deaths in the UK, that’s more than 170,000 deaths each year – an average of 480 deaths each day or one every three minutes in the UK⁵.
2. There are around 7.6 million people living with a heart or circulatory disease in the UK: 4 million men and 3.6 million women⁵.
3. Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common type of heart disease. It is the most common cause of heart attack and was the single biggest killer of both men and women worldwide in 2019⁵.
4. In the US, heart disease is the leading cause of death for men, women, and people of most racial and ethnic groups¹. One person dies every 33 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease¹.Six Interesting Facts about the Heart

6. The most common type of heart disease in the USA is coronary artery disease (CAD), in which the major blood vessels to the heart become narrow or blocked with cholesterol and fatty build-up. CAD affects 18.2 million adults, and shockingly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that every two in ten deaths from CAD happen in people under 65 years old².

How the World Flows -...

Albert Folch

How the World Flows acts like a microscope that pulls the listener into the barely noticeable, Lilliputian world of fluids at small scales—the microfluidic world—and answers the question "What is microfluidics?" in non-technical language.Microfluidics is the field of science that studies fluids constrained to spaces that are smaller than one millimeter wide, and by extension, the engineering field which builds devices that exploit the unique properties of fluids at these scales. Author Albert Folch explores this micro science which has inspired engineers to build devices such as engines, spray cans, ballpoint pens, inkjet and 3D printers, pregnancy and Covid tests, glucometers, asthma nebulizers, kidney dialysis machines, and DNA analyzers.This book also shows that many processes essential to life on Earth—such as the formation of raindrops, the rise of sap in plants, and the percolation of water through soil—are all microfluidic marvels. It examines how our cells breathe, feed, and fight diseases through small capillaries. Through engaging and digestible stories, Folch takes a lens to this tiny science and demonstrates how big a role microfluidics play in life as we know it.

Beastly Britain - An Animal History

Karen R. Jones

The remarkable history of Britain and its animals, told through ten iconic species Have you ever wondered why we count sheep to get to sleep? Or where the phrase "red herring" comes from? Across British history, animals have been written about in poetry, painted in oils, and even recorded in law. Loved or feared, familiar or endangered, animals are everywhere to be seen. In this enchanting study, Karen R. Jones takes a journey through the history of ten animals to show the extraordinary story of "beastly" Britain. Jones looks at animals including foxes and hedgehogs, newts and beetles, ghostly hounds, and even the Loch Ness Monster. She reveals the place of animals in British cultural identity and sheds new light on the most iconic moments of British history, from the Black Death to World War II. The story of these isles may be told by human voices, but it is fully brought to life by listening to the squawks, bellows, and howls that make Britain what it is.

The Quantum Darkness -...

Dirk Fallon

At its core, quantum mechanics reveals that particles at the smallest scales do not adhere to the deterministic laws of classical physics. Instead, particles such as electrons and photons behave in ways that are probabilistic and inherently uncertain. One of the fundamental aspects of this theory is the dual nature of matter and light. The concept of wave-particle duality suggests that entities can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like characteristics depending on the experimental setup used to observe them. This duality led to groundbreaking experiments that demonstrated light interfering with itself and particles existing in multiple states simultaneously. 
Central to quantum mechanics is the uncertainty principle, which posits that certain pairs of physical properties, like position and momentum, cannot both be precisely known at the same time. This principle does not imply a lack of precision in measurement techniques but rather indicates an intrinsic property of the quantum world. The probabilistic nature of these measurements means that we can only predict the likelihood of finding a particle in a particular state rather than determining its exact state. Such ideas were not only philosophically challenging but also required a fundamental rethinking of what it means to "know" something in the realm of physics.
