The Ice Age that Wasn't: How Our Ancestors May Have Held the Ice at Bay [Kindle Compatible (MOBI)]
by Richard A. Lovett

Thousands of years ago, a new scientific theory says, ancient farmers may have cut enough forests and produced enough methane to alter the Earth's climate by nearly as much as industrial pollution is doing today, helping to create the unusually stable climate that allowed modern civilization to develop. This does not mean, however, that future warming will be equally beneficial. (Published: 2007)

Working Quantum Consciousness [Kindle Compatible (MOBI)]
by A. L. Sirois
|
|
Immortality may yet be within reach. As a structural element in the new quantum mechanics view of intelligence and the universe, microtubules look like hexagonal lattices of the protein tubulin, arranged cylindrically. Through mechanisms not yet fully understood, these cylindrical lattices self-assemble, extending axons and dendrites and forming synaptic connections, which they then regulate and maintain. A. L. Sirois spells it all out for us in this informative and entertaining article. (Published: 2003)
