One line straight down. One line to the right. One line to the left, then a circle. That was all—just three lines in a circle. This bold picture book tells the story of the peace symbol—designed in 1958 by a London activist protesting nuclear weapons—and how it inspired people all over the world. Depicting the symbol's travels from peace marches and liberation movements to the end of apartheid and the fall of the Berlin Wall, Three Lines in a Circle offers a message of inspiration to today's children and adults who are working to create social change. An author’s note provides historical background and a time line of late twentieth-century peace movements.

World-renowned economist Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum, explains that we have an opportunity to shape the fourth industrial revolution, which will fundamentally alter how we live and work. Schwab argues that this revolution is different in scale, scope and complexity from any that have come before. Characterized by a range of new technologies that are fusing the physical, digital and biological worlds, the developments are affecting all disciplines, economies, industries and governments, and even challenging ideas about what it means to be human. Artificial intelligence is already all around us, from supercomputers, drones and virtual assistants to 3D printing, DNA sequencing, smart thermostats, wearable sensors and microchips smaller than a grain of sand. But this is just the beginning: nanomaterials 200 times stronger than steel and a million times thinner than a strand of hair and the first transplant of a 3D printed liver are already in development. Imagine “smart factories” in which global systems of manufacturing are coordinated virtually, or implantable mobile phones made of biosynthetic materials. The fourth industrial revolution, says Schwab, is more significant, and its ramifications more profound, than in any prior period of human history. He outlines the key technologies driving this revolution and discusses the major impacts expected on government, business, civil society and individuals. Schwab also offers bold ideas on how to harness these changes and shape a better future—one in which technology empowers people rather than replaces them; progress serves society rather than disrupts it; and in which innovators respect moral and ethical boundaries rather than cross them. We all have the opportunity to contribute to developing new frameworks that advance progress.

This monograph reviews the literature linking prostate secretory protein 94 (PSP94) to prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It reveals four important insights not previously reported in the scientific literature: PSP94 is fungicidal within epithelial cells that synthesize it, but it is not fungicidal extracellularly due to inhibition by calcium ions. Prostatic epithelial cells of BPH men secrete an incomplete version of PSP94 which is not fungicidal; non-BPH men only secrete the fungicidal version. Epidemiological data indicate that a yet-to-be-identified sexually transmissible infection is causing prostate cancer, BPH and non-bacterial prostatitis. The gene responsible for the synthesis of PSP94 is expressed in all late onset cancers sites, representing 75% of all cancer cases in developed countries; it is not expressed in any early onset cancer sites of unknown etiology. The etiologies of prostate cancer and BPH are not known. Prostatic inflammation can be observed in 80% of elderly men. Epidemiologists have been predicting for more than a decade that a yet-to-be-identified sexually transmissible infection is causing prostate cancer. The search for prostatic pathogens has resulted in dozens of studies, yet a disease causing agent still eludes researchers. Research has focused on known sexually transmissible infections and bacteria. Two 2008 genome wide association studies reported that a single-nucleotide polymorphism near the PSP94 gene was associated with a 1.6x increase in risk of prostate cancer: the risk allele causes reduced synthesis of PSP94 in the prostate. Taken together, these facts suggest that PSP94's primary purpose is to defend epithelial cells from an intracellular pathogen which is causing prostate cancer and BPH, and possibly other diseases. Though this hypothesis is fully consistent with the current scientific literature, additional studies are necessary. Might this hypothesis be correct or not, understanding the mechanisms behind PSP94's protective properties for prostate cancer and its role in other late onset cancers should be given high priority in cancer research.

Every story I have written in this book is true. Every action by God I have recorded happened. And it is faith in the Father, His Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit that moved the Lord. Jesus taught that faith the size of a mustard seed would bring miraculous answers to prayers. And the more one reads the Bible and hears the Word of God preached and taught, the stronger that faith becomes. The answers to prayers and the victories they brought that are recorded in this small book are a reminder to all that victories in the lives of countless numbers of people will continue as long as strong faith in our unchangeable God and His written word resides in the hearts of believers. "And this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith." 1 John 5:4(b)

"Deliciously drawn (with fragments of collage worked into each page), insightful and bubbling with delight in the process of artistic creation. A+" -Salon How do objects summon memories? What do real images feel like? For decades, these types of questions have permeated the pages of Lynda Barry's compositions, with words attracting pictures and conjuring places through a pen that first and foremost keeps on moving. What It Is demonstrates a tried-and-true creative method that is playful, powerful, and accessible to anyone with an inquisitive wish to write or to remember. Composed of completely new material, each page of Barry's first Drawn & Quarterly book is a full-color collage that is not only a gentle guide to this process but an invigorating example of exactly what it is: "The ordinary is extraordinary."
