Book excerpt: Let’s Trend Parasitism! delves into the intriguing question: “”Why has the law become weak?”” This book explores the fragility of legal systems worldwide through the lens of parasitism, using ten pivotal questions to frame its analysis. Each question is paired with engaging stories and logical arguments, making complex legal and biological concepts accessible to a broad audience. The book is structured around these ten questions, each shedding light on different aspects of law and its deterioration: 1. **What exactly is the law?** 2. **How are we bound by the law?** 3. **How much do we understand the law that governs us?** 4. **Does it matter if we don’t understand the law?** 5. **How does the law affect us?** 6. **Is the law fair to everyone?** 7. **Is there anything termed as morality in the law?** 8. **What are the fundamental laws one must understand?** 9. **What is the degree of the law?** 10. **Why has the law become weak?** Through these questions, the book examines various branches of law—Universal, Natural, Physics, Economic, Chemistry, Biology, Statute, Psychology, and Philosophy— and their roles in shaping and weakening legal systems. The central theme focuses on how human tendencies like overexploitation, competition, mutualism, predation, and parasitism have led to the degradation of law. The narrative highlights how political and industrial powers manipulate the masses, leading to a parasitic relationship where the common man is unaware of the exploitations laid upon them. Each chapter features a story that illustrates the concepts being discussed, making the book both informative and engaging. These stories help readers understand the practical implications of the theoretical arguments presented.

Download or read book Evolutionary Ecology of Parasites written by Robert Poulin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parasites have evolved independently in numerous animal lineages, and they now make up a considerable proportion of the biodiversity of life. Not only do they impact humans and other animals in fundamental ways, but in recent years they have become a powerful model system for the study of ecology and evolution, with practical applications in disease prevention. Here, in a thoroughly revised and updated edition of his influential earlier work, Robert Poulin provides an evolutionary ecologist's view of the biology of parasites. He sets forth a comprehensive synthesis of parasite evolutionary ecology, integrating information across scales from the features of individual parasites to the dynamics of parasite populations and the structuring of parasite communities. Evolutionary Ecology of Parasites presents an evolutionary framework for the study of parasite biology, combining theory with empirical examples for a broader understanding of why parasites are as they are and do what they do. An up-to-date synthesis of the field, the book is an ideal teaching tool for advanced courses on the subject. Pointing toward promising directions and setting a research agenda, it will also be an invaluable reference for researchers who seek to extend our knowledge of parasite ecology and evolution.
Download or read book The Evolution and Fossil Record of Parasitism written by Kenneth De Baets and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume edited book highlights and reviews the potential of the fossil record to calibrate the origin and evolution of parasitism, and the techniques to understand the development of parasite-host associations and their relationships with environmental and ecological changes. The book deploys a broad and comprehensive approach, aimed at understanding the origins and developments of various parasite groups, in order to provide a wider evolutionary picture of parasitism as part of biodiversity. This is in contrast to most contributions by parasitologists in the literature that focus on circular lines of evidence, such as extrapolating from current host associations or distributions, to estimate constraints on the timing of the origin and evolution of various parasite groups. This approach is narrow and fails to provide the wider evolutionary picture of parasitism on, and as part of, biodiversity. Volume two focuses on the importance of direct host associations and host responses such as pathologies in the geological record to constrain the role of antagonistic interactions in driving the diversification and extinction of parasite-host relationships and disease. To better understand the impact on host populations, emphasis is given to arthropods, colonial metazoans, echinoderms, mollusks and vertebrates as hosts. In addition, novel techniques used to constrain interactions in deep time are discussed ranging from chemical and microscopic investigations of host remains, such as blood and coprolites, to the statistical inference of lateral transfer of transposons and host-parasite coevolutionary dynamics using molecular divergence time estimation.

Download or read book Never Let a Serious Crisis Go to Waste written by Philip Mirowski and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the onset of the Great Recession, as house prices sank and joblessness soared, many commentators concluded that the economic convictions behind the disaster would now be consigned to history. Yet in the harsh light of a new day, attacks against government intervention and the global drive for austerity are as strong as ever. Never Let a Serious Crisis Go to Waste is the definitive account of the wreckage of what passes for economic thought, and how neoliberal ideas were used to solve the very crisis they had created. Now updated with a new afterword, Philip Mirowski’s sharp and witty work provides a roadmap for those looking to escape today’s misguided economic dogma.

This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you FED UP with Congress? For most Americans, the answer would be an emphatic, "Yes!". So why do members waltz back into office term after term? Even in so-called, change years? Are Americans really that dumb? ... Maybe not. In this book, a veteran activist and observer opens the hood of our political system, and reveals as never before the innocent, but crucial errors made by the founders in designing our national legislature. You will learn how those flaws combined with human nature to produce an institution that now fails us so thoroughly, so often, it no longer seems capable of rational public policy. You will see how today's politics seduces and corrupts even the best and most well-meaning leaders, including someone you have trusted (and re-elected) for years. You will understand why our leaders refuse to act, and why reforms fail time and again. Finally, the author proposes a sensible plan, along with effective steps you can take, to truly Fix Congress, once and for all!

Download or read book Parasites in Social Insects written by Paul Schmid-Hempel and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes for the first time how parasites shape the biology of social insects: the ants, wasps, bees, and termites. Paul Schmid-Hempel provides an overview of the existing knowledge of parasites in social insects. Current ideas are evaluated using a broad database, and the role of parasites for the evolution and maintenance of the social organization and biology of insects is carefully scrutinized. In addition, the author develops new insights, especially in his examination of the intricate relationships between parasites and their social hosts through the rigorous use of evolutionary and ecological concepts. Schmid-Hempel identifies gaps in our knowledge about parasites in social insects and uses models to develop new questions for future research. In addition, issues that are usually considered separately--such as division of labor, genetics, immunology, and epidemiology--are placed in a common framework to analyze two of the most successful adaptations of life: parasitism and sociality. This work will appeal not only to practitioners in the fields of behavioral ecology and sociobiology, but also to others interested in host-parasite relationships or in social organisms, such as apiculturists struggling to overcome the problems arising from mite infestations of honeybee colonies.
Download or read book Parasitic Protozoa written by J.P. Kreier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now 17 years since the junior author's book Parasitic protozoa was first published, and 13 years since it received limited revision. The study of symbiotic protozoa has meanwhile progressed, and much of the content of the earlier book has been superseded if not displaced by recent knowledge. We believe that there is still a place for an introductory textbook, conventionally arranged on a taxonomic frame work, on this most fascinating group of organisms. It should supplement (certainly not supplant) more modern treatments from different angles. A mountain looks very different if one approaches it from different sides, though a true picture of that mountain can be built up only by the laborious summation of the views provided by all approaches. The immunology and the chemotherapy of protozoal infections are subjects so complex that we do not propose to try to encompass them in this book. We mention briefly the more commonly used therapeutic compounds in the various chapters that follow, without giving details of dosage schedules. Further information on immunology and chemo therapy can be obtained from the books listed at the end of the Introduction; the information we give on chemotherapy is largely drawn from that of James & Gilles. This book can be regarded as an evolutionary descendant of the earlier "Parasitic protozoa", referred to above, extensively revised and much more fully illustrated. We hope that it will prove as useful as its predecessor appears to have been.
