Los 23 cap#tulos de autobiograf#a de nuestra especie. El genoma humano, todo el conjunto de genes alojados en 23 pares de cromosomas, constituye nada menos que una autobiograf#a de nuestra especie. Escrito con mil millones de palabras de tres letras que utilizan el alfabeto de cuatro letras del ADN, el genoma ha sido corregido, abreviado, modificado y aumentado a medida que se ha transmitido de generaci#n en generaci#n a lo largo de m#s de tres mil millones de a#os.
Este Breviario explica de xeito conciso os conceptos máis básicos da xenética, necesarios para comprendermos as súas aplicacións principais e algunhas das súas consecuencias sociais. Ao tempo que se presentan os conceptos, vanse facendo pequenas referencias historicas a sua formulacion e as consecuencias sociais que se derivaron dos mesmos
Is a computer simulation of a brain sufficient to make it intelligent Do you need consciousness to have intelligence Do you need to be alive to have consciousness This book has a dual purpose First it provides a multi disciplinary research survey across all branches of neuroscience and AI research that relate to this book s mission of bringing AI research closer to building a human level AI HLAI system It provides an encapsulation of key ideas and concepts and provides all the references for the reader to delve deeper much of the survey coverage is of recent pioneering research Second the final part of this book brings together key concepts from the survey and makes suggestions for building HLAI This book provides accessible explanations of numerous key concepts from neuroscience and artificial intelligence research including The focus on visual processing and thinking and the possible role of brain lateralization toward visual thinking and intelligence Diffuse decision making by ensembles of neurons The inside out model to give HLAI an inner life and the possible role for cognitive architecture implementing the scientific method through the plan do check act cycle within that model learning to learn A neuromodulation feature such as a machine equ
Un exhaustivo relato del acontecimiento científico más asombroso de nuestro tiempo, escrito por la gran periodista del New York Times Gina Kolata. El nacimiento de Dolly 'el primer clon del mundo' puso en nuestras manos el secreto de la creación...

A importancia do Proxecto Xenoma Humano non reside tanto no que poida, de feito, revelar sobre a bioloxía como na validación e reforzo que fai do determinismo biolóxico como explicación de todas as diferenzas sociais e individuais.Trad. do ingles e notas: Fernando Vazquez Corredoira e Salvador Mourelo Peres.
