Spillover: L’evoluzione delle pandemie - David Quammen [Riassunto]
Spillover: L’evoluzione delle pandemie di David Quammen è un viaggio affascinante e inquietante nel mondo delle zoonosi, le malattie che saltano dagli animali all’uomo. Attraverso casi reali, come Ebola, HIV, SARS e Nipah, l’autore esplora il ruolo della deforestazione, del commercio di animali vivi e della globalizzazione nella diffusione di virus emergenti. Con uno stile narrativo avvincente, Quammen mostra come la prossima pandemia – il Big One – sia inevitabile e mette in guardia sull’urgente necessità di prevenzione e ricerca scientifica.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Episode #5 David Quammen - Out of the Wild - What a Global Virus Teaches Us
The spread of the novel coronavirus SARS-COV2 is a seismic global event that has pushed healthcare systems and societies into new realities. So, how does a virus become a global pandemic? After all, the world is veiled with viruses and this isn't the first time human history has been altered by one - we need only to recall viruses like the Bubonic plague, Polio, and SARS to see evidence. Humans have a long and complex relationship with viruses. Like most living organisms, viruses co-evolved alongside humans for millions of years. The interaction between viruses and mammals has even permanently altered...

In the mid-1970s, scientists began using DNA sequences to reexamine the history of all life. Perhaps the most startling discovery to come out of this new field—the study of life’s diversity and relatedness at the molecular level—is horizontal gene transfer (HGT), or the move...

David Quammen's book "The Tangled Tree: A New History of Life" tells the story of evolution through the eyes of Carl Woese, a not-terribly-famous but truly ingenious revolutionary who flipped evolution on its side, literally 90 degrees. He upended Darwin's famous tree of life, showing that genes can come from almost anywhere. Woese's contributions are believed by some to be as great as Darwin's. The view of evolution that Woese brought truly was a genuine revolution. Here, David Quammen engages with Perry Marshall in a wide ranging conversation about who the real heroes in evolutionary science actually are. Hosted on...
