Item description from seller

Climate policy: Rethink IPCC reports Voluntary work alone cannot sustain the assessments carried out by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Thomas F. Stocker and Gian-Kasper Plattner call for institutional support and a longer report cycle. Economics: Manufacture renewables to build energy security Countries should follow China's lead and boost markets for water, wind and solar power technologies to drive down costs, say John A. Mathews and Hao Tan. Science fiction: Verne and beyond Danièle Chatelain and George Slusser explore how French science fiction grapples with Cartesian duality. Q&A: The sci-fi optimist Best-selling science-fiction writer Neal Stephenson's works cover everything from cryptography to Sumerian mythology. Ahead of next year's novel Seveneves, he talks about his influences, the stagnation in material technologies, and Hieroglyph, the forthcoming science-fiction anthology that he kick-started to stimulate the next generation of engineers. Books in brief Barbara Kiser reviews five of the week's best science picks. Lung cancer Herb Brody Epidemiology: The dominant malignancy Eric Bender Diagnosis: Early warning system Katherine Bourzac Perspective: The screening imperative John K. Field Personalized medicine: Special treatment Michael Eisenstein Immunotherapy: Chemical tricks Bianca Nogrady Aetiology: Crucial clues Sarah Deweerdt Environment: Breathing trouble Traci Watson Public health: A burning issue Nidhi Subbaraman Genomics: Something to swing about Michael J. O'Neill & Rachel J. O'Neill See also Article by Carbone et al. Microbiology: Bacteria get vaccinated Rodolphe Barrangou & Todd R. Klaenhammer Atmospheric chemistry: No equatorial divide for a cleansing radical Arlene M. Fiore See also Letter by Patra et al. Sustainable development: The promise and perils of roads Stephen G. Perz See also Letter by Laurance et al. Oceanography: What goes down must come up Raffaele Ferrari Sensory systems: Sound processing takes motor control Uri Livneh & Anthony Zador See also Article by Schneider et al. Astrophysics: Quasar complexity simplified Michael S. Brotherton See also Letter by Shen & Ho Articles Top Assembly-line synthesis of organic molecules with tailored shapes Matthew Burns, Stéphanie Essafi, Jessica R. Bame, Stephanie P. Bull, Matthew P. Webster + et al. The iterative, reagent-controlled homologation of a boronic ester is used to create an ?assembly line? capable of synthesizing organic molecules that contain ten contiguous, stereochemically defined methyl groups and which have different shapes depending on the stereochemistry of those groups. A synaptic and circuit basis for corollary discharge in the auditory cortex David M. Schneider, Anders Nelson & Richard Mooney Here auditory cortex excitatory neurons are shown to decrease their activity during locomotion, grooming and vocalization, and this decrease was paralleled by increased activity in inhibitory interneurons; these findings provide a circuit basis for how self-motion and external sensory signals can be integrated to potentially facilitate hearing. See also News & Views by Livneh & Zador Gibbon genome and the fast karyotype evolution of small apesOpen Lucia Carbone, R. Alan Harris, Sante Gnerre, Krishna R. Veeramah, Belen Lorente-Galdos + et al. The genome of the gibbon, a tree-dwelling ape from Asia positioned between Old World monkeys and the great apes, is presented, providing insights into the evolutionary history of gibbon species and their accelerated karyotypes, as well as evidence for selection of genes such as those for forelimb development and connective tissue that may be important for locomotion through trees.
