This book will allow you to rethink your decision-making ability, and guide you through how to make more constructive choices about your day-to-day life, even when the world around you seems to be falling apart.

The next 24 hours will surprise you. Readers are sure to be awestruck by this in-depth, authoritative exploration into genome sequencing and how this modern tool takes much of the detective work out of medicine. Dr Ashley, a Stanford professor of medicine and genetics, describes the first attempts at interpreting the human genome, and how this innovation has opened a new chapter for medicine - allowing those plagued by their mystery medical ailments to find relief.

This zoological deep dive reveals how we as humans make use of our senses to make sense of the world through consideration of how a myriad extraordinary creatures’ sensory powers lie dormant within us. Begin to question perception and find yourself amazed by creatures from land, air, and sea. These almost other-worldly truths may also just inspire the ecowarrior in you.
