Paperback. Zustand: Good. Dose of Insanity is a sweeping thriller about a promising new drug that goes horribly wrong when greed and denial trump scientific judgment. An exciting new discovery finds its way into the hands of giant Apex Pharmaceuticals following the death of a young scientist. Despite the many red flags, Apex's tyrannical CEO Maxwell Hall sees only the multibillion dollar potential of the product and rushes it into development. Once Medulin is announced to the world, only a small Connecticut biotechnology company called Genplex is successful at discovering a viable alternative. Genplex and its young research director, Jerrod Wesley, become locked in a battle of David-and-Goliath proportions as they struggle to reach the market first. But more is at stake than market share. Medulin causes patients to become violently insane, and Maxwell Hall leaves a trail of corruption and murder as he covers his tracks. When Jerrod's daughter, Courtney, is touched by the effects of Medulin, she seeks her own revenge. The conclusion is dramatic, terrifying, and satisfying. About the Author Davis L.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Facing Heidegger's critique of modern technology, the author analyses the question of technology and ethical responsibility and the call for reflexivity towards technology. He examines Heidegger's thoughts about how science and technology conceal the enigmatic and distinctive presencing of Being and exhibits how modern technology has brought unintended consequences and risks. The author extends the deliberation among diverse epistemologies, interested parties and laypersons, a component of reflexive modernization. Such epistemic community opens the way for a new reflexive democratization of technology, in which different actors should be involved in decision making about technology as it affects the society, the environment and individuals.…
