Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an in-depth overview on the manifold functions of fungal extracellular vesicles (EV) which span from cell-to-cell communication, pathogenicity and stimulation of host’s immunity to export of hundreds of biomolecules. The book summarizes the present knowledge on the impact of extracellular vesicles on fungal biology. Extracellular vesicles participate in fundamental biological processes in all living cells but only during the last 15 years the production and functions of EVs were identified and studied in fungal species too. Up to date more than 50 independent studies have shown that extracellular vesicles are produced by at least 20 fungal species. The book addresses researchers and advanced students in Microbiology, Mycology and Biotechnology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was advised to start this book with where I studied and who my teachers where. I’m not going to do that. I am an ordinary person with unordinary thoughts. My autobiography consists of what I’ve done, mainly discoveries combined with theory. This is what you are holding in your hands now, and the incredible applications that follow from them. For many people where they studied and who taught them it is important, but for me it does not matter. Pierre Fermat was educated as a lawyer. In his spare time he was engaged in mathematics and left to mankind a number of mathematical discoveries. Evariste Galois did not even finish high school and was left without a degree because he could not take the Matura exam in mathematics. However, he left humanity almost all modern mathematics. Thomas Edison was almost illiterate, but this did not prevent him from becoming one of the most prolific inventors in his time. At the same time, tens of thousands of scientists work in institutes, leaving piles of books to mankind without any discoveries in them. In their scientific works there are only findings. Most of them are convinced that they do not make any discoveries because everything is already discovered. The truth is quite different. What we know is limited, but what we do not know has NO boundaries. I wrote this book because some omnipotence forced me to do this. My research showed that there are amazing events that are associated with rapid technological and spiritual development and change in the structure of human society. All this will be accompanied by natural cataclysms. Therefore, some biblical texts are misunderstood and misinterpreted. Under these conditions it is impossible to stay calm. Don’t let the mathematical formulas scare you. You can do without them. Read on and you will understand, because it is a theory of reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love wins, hate ruins. Human, by nature, loves more readily than hates occasionally. The book, How to Win Nature and Enjoy Good Life, explores innate human nature and its relationship with nature. This book along with its four companion books—Nature Is My Teacher; Of Human Nature and Good Habits; Life, Living and Lifestyle and Health and Medical Care—constitutes a series that tells the nature-human connection and its implication in our daily life, in the related set of separate episodes. How to Win Nature and Enjoy Good Life primarily deals with love, relationship, marriage and family life. It contains chapters: Love and Relationships (Love is hard to describe; it is often bewildering and unknowable. You may never know even in your lifetime. But you can’t miss to sense it.); Marriage (To be a woman, childlessness is a private sorrow. Childlessness signifies a rolling loss into the future. It means no children, and no grandchildren.); Family (Today, children suffer from the lack of love and care, affection and attention from their parents on a daily basis.); Children (Children are the most valuable resources of this planet—one-third of our population and all of our generation. If you want to give one gift to your child, then let it be enthusiasm.); Friends and Society (Most Americans are home alone (2.6 people per household), drive alone (1.6 per car), and stay alone.); Life Is Good (Research on well-being basically concentrates on three core factors: health, relationships, and a sense of purpose.); Life is Beautiful (Life is half spent before we envision what life is. We are sorry for the past and worry for the future. But true living never has to be all regrets of the past or all prospects of the future.); Live Young, Live Long (Globally, life expectancy grows and shrinks according to income trends.); Enjoy Good Food (Food is remarkably a bonding force. Survey finds that in more than a quarter of families, food is considered to be an emotional response and a meaningful way to show affection.); How Food Works (Breakfast jump-starts the metabolism process of the day. So, don’t skip or mess it up. People who do not break fast soon after rising (half an hour or so), or take breakfast later in the morning, typically consume more calories over the course of the day and run a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and obesity.) Diet and Nutrition (Humans evolved to eat. Anthropologists looked at the diets, habits and physical activities of hundreds of modern hunter-gatherer groups and small-scale societies, whose lifestyles are very similar to those of ancient populations, and find that they all generally exhibit excellent metabolic health while consuming a wide range of diets.); Herbs and Spices (The herb is always of plant origin. It is not of animal origin; nor is it a supplement that was developed in a lab.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Norm. He's 31, 5'9", just over 13 stone, and works a 39 hour week. He likes a drink, doesn't do enough exercise and occasionally treats himself to a bar of chocolate (milk). He's a pretty average kind of guy. In fact, he is the average guy in this clever and unusual take on statistical risk, chance, and how these two factors affect our everyday choices. Watch as Norm (who, like all average specimens, feels himself to be uniquely special), and his friends careful Prudence and reckless Kelvin, turns to statistics to help him in life's endless series of choices - should I fly or take the train? Have a baby? Another drink? Or another sausage? Do a charity skydive or get a lift on a motorbike? Because chance and risk aren't just about numbers - it's about what we believe, who we trust and how we feel about the world around us. From a world expert in risk and the bestselling author of The Tiger That Isn't (and creator of BBC Radio 4's More or Less), this is a commonsense (and wildly entertaining) guide to personal risk and decoding the statistics that represent it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Asset Valuation and Cyber Risk Measurement: Principles of Cybernomics is a book about the future of risk and the future of value. It examines the indispensable role of economic modeling in the future of digitization, thus providing industry professionals with the tools they need to optimize the management of financial risks associated with this megatrend. The book addresses three problem areas: the valuation of digital assets, measurement of risk exposures of digital valuables, and economic modeling for the management of such risks. Employing a pair of novel cyber risk measurement units, bitmort and hekla, the book covers areas of value, risk, control, and return, each of which are viewed from the perspective of entity (e.g., individual, organization, business), portfolio (e.g., industry sector, nation-state), and global ramifications. Establishing adequate, holistic, and statistically robust data points on the entity, portfolio, and global levels for the development of a cybernomics databank is essential for the resilience of our shared digital future. This book also argues existing economic value theories no longer apply to the digital era due to the unique characteristics of digital assets. It introduces six laws of digital theory of value, with the aim to adapt economic value theories to the digital and machine era. Comprehensive literature review on existing digital asset valuation models, cyber risk management methods, security control frameworks, and economics of information security Discusses the implication of classical economic theories under the context of digitization, as well as the impact of rapid digitization on the future of value Analyzes the fundamental attributes and measurable characteristics of digital assets as economic goods Discusses the scope and measurement of digital economy Highlights cutting-edge risk measurement practices regarding cybersecurity risk management Introduces novel concepts, models, and theories, including opportunity value, Digital Valuation Model, six laws of digital theory of value, Cyber Risk Quadrant, and most importantly, cyber risk measures hekla and bitmort Introduces cybernomics, that is, the integration of cyber risk management and economics to study the requirements of a databank in order to improve risk analytics solutions for (1) the valuation of digital assets, (2) the measurement of risk exposure of digital assets, and (3) the capital optimization for managing residual cyber risK Provides a case study on cyber insurance
