"The Song of the Cell" by Siddhartha Mukherjee is an amazing book for doctors, biologists, scientists and anyone interested in the fascinating world of our human body and that cells that keep it alive.
Hi Ingrid, Nice to see you again. I always find it interesting how you are able to read that many books. Indeed before we took a close look at the world of cells we were busy looking at the sky. Really interesting how the same instrument can be used to discover the infinity big and infinitely small depending on where we decide to look. Hooke was an important scientist and in physics there's a law that bears his name ' Hooke's law ' If we don't have a portrait of Hooke is ( if I remember correctly) because Issac newton burnt all the existing portraits because he was his rival at the royal society in England and they both had a severe adversity. Oh Claude Bernard ! My University bears his name. He was an important figure at his era. I remember in my English class in university we were asked to choose a topic to debate and I chose transhumanism. I like when scientist in any field expose with humility our limited knowledge. It's really essential to keep in mind how much we don't know even if we have come along way. Oh Emily Dickinson, I spent the last few days listening to her poem ' hope is something tethered with feathers '. It's seems really interesting book although I still a big difficulty reading but it was interesting listening to you. Thanks Ingrid. Speaking of receiving cells I heard there's a book called ' les cellules buissonnières' which seems interesting maybe you will like it. Take care friend
@@sicparvismagna1294 thank you! Yes he explains a bit more on Claude Bernard later on in the book 😊 i will look up Hooke's law, lol Newton was so petty 😂 i will also look for that book. Maybe i can go back to my poetry crochet videos with "Hope is the thing with feathers" 😊
You are welcome! Oh nice. Ok nice that what I told you piqued your interest. Yes outside of great scientific discoveries newton was someone not easy to get along with. Oh that would be really lovely, I would love to see it.
