Where does it exist? And what is its function? What is the mind? Where is its center? And what is its function? What is its relation with the thought? And what are the relations of the above-mentioned items to one another?

Smells are the colour that enrich our experience of life. Ask anyone to reflect on their sense of smell, and they immediately start talking. First there are discussions about food, but quickly they move on to personal topics: about the smells that evoke memories of childhood, dead relatives, pregnancy, love and sex. When people talk about their sense of smell, they also tell us something about themselves, their feelings, thoughts and relationships. Thus, the sense of smell not only reflects the chemical world outside us, but also bears witness to our inner world, our feelings and thoughts.

In The 4 Season Solution, Hartwig reveals the four keys of health - sleep, eat, move, connect - and explains how we can reconcile the needs of our ancient bodies with the demands and complications of modern life.

All of life is profoundly shaped by the daily, monthly, and yearly cycles of our planet, and all creatures have internal timekeeping systems that rely on cues from the surrounding environment. With modern technology, we are changing our environments—and by proxy, the ecosystems around us—to override these innate rhythms of life. But at what cost? Life in Sync reveals how Earth’s rotations shape our biology, what human sleep cycles looked like before the advent of artificial light, and why technology can’t free us from the constraints of our circadian clocks.

Es ist eine Frage, die sich Menschen seit Tausenden von Jahren stellen: Woher kommen wir? Nach Antworten suchen Fachleute auch in unserer DNA – und hier decken sie einige Sensationen auf. Im Erbgut von Homo sapiens befinden sich nämlich Abschnitte, die gar nicht von den Ahnen unserer Spezies stammen. Neandertaler, Denisovianer und weitere, noch unbekannte Vettern der Gattung Homo haben sich offenbar mit unseren Vorfahren gepaart und so zu unserem Genom beigetragen. Und auch unsere jüngere evolutionäre Vergangenheit hat markante Spuren in unseren Genen hinterlassen.

Aquest audiollibre és un tractat per sobreviure a l'era digital i tornar a donar importància a un dels elements que més ens caracteritza com a humans: les mans. Al llarg del temps, les mans han ajudat a l'esser humà a evolucionar i desenvolupar cultura, art i enginyeria. Amb l'aparició del món digital, les funcions de les mans han passat a un segon pla. La reconciliació amb les mans per tornar a fer-les servir pot ser el camí cap a la tranquil·litat i cap a una vida plena, més lenta i menys estressant.
