Bio Design : Nature • Science • Creativity
Bioluminescent algae, symbiotic aquariums, self-healing concrete, clavicle wind instruments and structures made from living trees – biology applied outside the lab has never been so intriguing, or so beautiful. Bio Design examines the thrilling advances in the field, showcasing some seventy projects (concepts, prototypes and completed designs) that cover a range of fields – from architecture and industrial design to fashion and medicine. The revised and expanded edition features twelve new projects (replacing ten existing projects): Hy-Fi (by David Benjamin); One Central Park, Sydney (Jean Nouvel); Guard from Above (Sjoerd Hoogendoorn); Cell-laden Hydrogels for Biocatalysis (Alshakim Nelson); Zoa (Modern Meadow); Amino Labs (Julie Legault); Algae and Mycelium Projects (Eric Klarenbeek); Interwoven and Harvest (Diane Scherer); Concrete Honey (John Becker); Bistro In Vitro (Koert van Mensvoort); Circumventive Organs (Agi Haines); Quantworm Mine (Liv Bargman and Nina Cutler).It also includes a new ‘how-to’ section at the end (Tips for Collaboration/FAQs/Further Resources), as well as a fully revised introduction.

What is motion in nature and technology?
Motion in nature refers to the movement of objects or organisms from one place to another. This can include the movement of animals, the flow of water, or the orbit of planets around the sun. In technology, motion refers to the movement of mechanical parts, such as the rotation of gears in a machine or the movement of a robotic arm. Understanding motion in both nature and technology is important for fields such as physics, engineering, and biology, as it allows us to study and manipulate the movement of objects and organisms.

What is the purpose of nature and technology?
The purpose of nature is to provide the essential resources and environment for life to thrive. It offers beauty, sustenance, and balance to the world. Technology, on the other hand, serves to enhance human capabilities, improve efficiency, and solve problems. It is designed to make life easier, more convenient, and to advance human knowledge and understanding of the world. Both nature and technology play crucial roles in the development and sustainability of human life.

Rousseau and the Future of Freedom : Science, Technology and the Nature of Authority
This book examines Rousseau’s conception of freedom and its significance for our modern technological world.Drawing on Rousseau’s thought to explore the changing nature of authority, science and technology in modern society, the book’s approach points to how Rousseau had a tragic conception of freedom, one that parallels the circumstances that characterize our own desire for freedom and democracy.Rousseau’s critique of progress is integral to his thought in general and underrated when it comes to our own studies of science, technology and society.This volume refers to cases from the world of "free software" to consider our own predicament with how a flood of code and algorithms that is being wrapped around everything from our stuff to our food, to our bodies, our brains and – by extension – our freedom.As such, it will appeal to scholars of social and political theory, philosophy and ethics, particularly those with interests in science and technology studies and the implications of modern technology for freedom.

Good Nature : The New Science of How Nature Improves Our Health
‘This lucid and entertaining book presents compelling scientific evidence that proves what many of us have perhaps long suspected: nature is really good for us.I found it revelatory’ Richard Deverell, Director of Kew A revolutionary, science-based look at the ways nature can help make us healthier. Fifteen years ago, University of Oxford Professor Kathy Willis read a study that radically changed her view of our relationship to the natural world.The study revealed that hospital patients recovering from surgery improved three times faster when they looked out of their windows at trees rather than seeing walls. Since then, she has dedicated her research to proving this link between the amount of green space in our lives and our better health, mood and longevity.For the first time ever, Good Nature brings together these recent scientific findings and shares the simple changes we can all make in our lives.The book is full of surprising and practical ways that nature can improve our lives, such as: did you know that cedar enhances cancer-fighting cells in our immune system? Or that touching wood makes us feel calmer (the woodier, the knot-ier, the better)? Or that the scent of roses helps people drive more calmly and safely?Even having a pot plant by your desk can make a difference.A book with applications to everything from which way we walk to work to choosing where our kids should go to school, Good Nature brings the latest scientific research into our homes and workplaces.It shows how nature can help reduce the costs of healthcare and how, by bringing nature into our towns and cities, we can create a better, happier and healthier environment for all.

Where has technology learned from nature in bridge construction?
Technology has learned from nature in bridge construction by studying the structural integrity and efficiency of natural formations such as tree roots and spider webs. For example, the design of the Millau Viaduct in France was inspired by the way tree roots interlock to create stability in soil. Additionally, the use of biomimicry in bridge construction has led to the development of stronger and more flexible materials that can withstand environmental factors such as wind and earthquakes, ultimately leading to more sustainable and resilient bridge designs.

What is the role of energy in nature and technology?
Energy plays a crucial role in both nature and technology. In nature, energy is essential for all living organisms to grow, reproduce, and maintain their biological functions. It is also responsible for driving natural processes such as photosynthesis, weather patterns, and the water cycle. In technology, energy is used to power machines, generate electricity, and fuel transportation, enabling human activities and advancements. Both in nature and technology, the availability and efficient use of energy are critical for sustaining life and driving progress.
