Book excerpt: Bursting with ideas, replete with human insight, Bios is science fiction in the grand tradition: a novel of bravery, exploration, and discovery in a universe charged with awe. In the 22nd century, humankind has colonized the solar system. Starflight is possible but hugely expensive, so humakind's efforts are focussed on Isis, the one nearby Earthlike world. Isis is verdant, Edenic, rich with complex DNA-based plant and animal life. And every molecule of Isian life is spectacularly toxic to human beings. The entire planet is a permanent Level Four Hot Zone. Despite that, Isis is the most interesting discovery of the millennium: a parallel biology with lessons to teach us about our own nature. It's also the hardest of hardship posts, the loneliest place in the universe. Zoe Fisher was born to explore Isis. Literally. Cloned and genetically engineered by a faction within the hothouse politics of Earth, Zoe is optimized to face Isis's terrors. Now at last Zoe has arrived on Isis. But there are secrets implanted within her that not even she suspects--and the planet itself has secrets that will change our understanding of life in the universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of modern boot firmware, including the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and its associated EFI Developer Kit II (EDKII) firmware. The authors have each made significant contributions to developments in these areas. The reader will learn to use the latest developments in UEFI on modern hardware, including open source firmware and open hardware designs. The book begins with an exploration of interfaces exposed to higher-level software and operating systems, and commences to the left of the boot timeline, describing the flow of typical systems, beginning with the machine restart event. Software engineers working with UEFI will benefit greatly from this book, while specific sections of the book address topics relevant for a general audience: system architects, pre-operating-system application developers, operating system vendors (loader, kernel), independent hardware vendors (such as for plug-in adapters), and developers of end-user applications. As a secondary audience, project technical leaders or managers may be interested in this book to get a feel for what their engineers are doing. The reader will find: An overview of UEFI and underlying Platform Initialization (PI) specifications How to create UEFI applications and drivers Workflow to design the firmware solution for a modern platform Advanced usages of UEFI firmware for security and manageability

This book was released on 2022-01-28 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is a very important tool that helps in initializing the computer. Whatever the form factor, every computer should have a BIOS for it to work. Initially BIOS was considered as a very simple basic code with very few settings to manipulate. Currently the sheer number of peripherals that are attached to a computer is mind boggling. BIOS has undergone lots of changes in order to make these peripherals work. Author has managed to simplify the various settings which are available under the hood of BIOS. All the various settings are discussed in detail with the help of screen shots. Two common BIOS manufacturer’s settings (Gigabyte and Acer) are discussed. Other manufacturer’s BIOS settings are more or less the same with minor modifications. Reading this book will help the reader to configure any BIOS settings out there. This book has been authored by a Non computer science professional who spent lots of his time tinkering and tweaking various BIOS settings. The result of the experience is this book. Entering the BIOS setup utility allows the user to change the boot process order as well as a wide variety of hardware settings. One caution is that it is not recommended for an inexperienced user to change settings in the BIOS. BIOS limitations which were inherent led to the creation of a new firmware interface called Unified Extensible Firmware Interface. This interface can boot from disks over 2-TB in size, has a graphical user interface with network capability, and is also backward and forward compatible. Currently UEFI is slowly replacing conventional BIOS. This book extensively discusses UEFI BIOS settings. Updating BIOS has become simple and safe with the inherent update tool. Users can now safely update their BIOS without the fear of damaging CMOS chips. Exact steps of the BIOS update process could vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but they have been simplified and made fail safe. This book has been tailored for intermediate users with basic knowledge of computers who are capable of installing operating systems. Initially BIOS was purely text based with no GUI. Users needed to use the keyboard extensively to manipulate the settings. Current BIOS chips have GUI interfaces with mouse enabled. This made life of the user simple as settings can be manipulated by the click of a mouse button.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although both share a focus on human life as it is inscribed by power, Foucauldian biopolitics and Lacanian psychoanalysis have remained isolated from and even opposed to one another. In Being, Time, Bios, A. Kiarina Kordela aims to overcome this divide, formulating a historical ontology that draws from Spinoza, Marx, Heidegger, and Sartre to theorize the changed character of "being" and "time" under secular capitalism. With insights from film theory, postcolonial studies, and race theory, Kordela's wide-ranging analysis suggests a radically new understanding of contemporary capitalism—one in which uncertainty, sacrifice, immortality, and the gaze are central.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on a prototype of creative causal processes termed BIOS and how the concept can be applied to the physical world, in medicine and in social science. This book presents methods for identifying creative features in empirical data; studies showing biotic patterns in physical, biological, and economic processes; mathematical models of bipolar (positive and negative) feedback that generate biotic patterns. These studies support the hypothesis that natural processes are creative (not determined) and causal (not random) and that bipolar feedback plays a major role in their evolution. Simple processes precede, coexist, constitute and surround the complex systems they generate (priority of the simple). In turn, complex processes feedback and transform simpler ones (supremacy of the complex).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instant Notes in Medical Microbiology covers medical microbiology from the molecular biology of infectious agents right through to the clinical management of the infected patient, including disease pathogenesis, diagnosis, and the use of antimicrobial therapy. The first section covers how micro-organisms spread and cause disease in humans, and how the human body responds to infection in general. The next three sections give a broad outline of the important properties of human infectious pathogens; split into viruses, bacteria, and eukaryotic organisms. The final sections cover laboratory diagnosis, antimicrobial chemotherapy, prevention strategies, and infection from the point of view of the patient.
