Book Description
Have you ever wondered why the entire earth operates on a seven-day cycle? Have you thought about how even some of the smallest animals seem to follow a weekly schedule? This is NOT a coincidence. Our amazing God, having created this world in seven days, has implanted in living things a very tiny yet powerful gland that transfers information within our bodies—or even between species—by biochemical, neurological, or photonic means. The pineal gland is the rhythm-maker of our bodies and is a testament to the Sabbath created by God in Eden. This seal of our Creator is non-changing and anchored in time. As you explore the various aspects of these biological rhythms in humans, animals, birds, and even in insects and plants, you will see how there is a larger purpose to these circadian rhythms. The seven-day cycle is a gift from our Creator, our Redeemer of the world, to accept His invitation to come to Him and find the REST He desires for us in these troubled times. "Congratulations Dr Kenneth Greenaway for bringing together the evidences for the biological origins of Seven-day Rhythms in this succinct yet enlightening manuscript. As we grasp for a greater understanding of our origins may this work lead searchers for 'truth' to an eureka moment." ~ Dr. George S. Daniel M.Sc.,Ph.D.

Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Popular science at its most exciting: the breaking new world of chronobiology - understanding the rhythm of life in humans and all plants and animals. The entire natural world is full of rhythms. The early bird catches the worm -and migrates to an internal calendar. Dormice hibernate away the winter. Plants open and close their flowers at the same hour each day. Bees search out nectar-rich flowers day after day. There are cicadas that can breed for only two weeks every 17 years. And in humans: why are people who work anti-social shifts more illness prone and die younger? What is jet-lag and can anything help? Why do teenagers refuse to get up in the morning, and are the rest of us really 'larks' or 'owls'? Why are most people born (and die) between 3am-5am? And should patients be given medicines (and operations) at set times of day, because the body reacts so differently in the morning, evening and at night? The answers lie in our biological clocks the mechanisms which give order to all living things. They impose a structure that enables us to change our behaviour in relation to the time of day, month or year. They are reset at sunrise and sunset each day to link astronomical time with an organism's internal time.

Book Description
The natural world is full of rhythms. How do birds know when to return to their nesting grounds? What effect do the seasons have on our wellbeing, and how does the season in which we are born affect our subsequent life chances? How did humans get the idea that there were seasons 50,000 years ago? Seasons of Life explains why the seasons occur, the impact of seasonal change and how organisms have evolved to anticipate these changes. For although we mask the effects of seasonal changes by warming our homes, lighting our nights, preserving foods and storing water, we cannot hide from them.

Circadian Rhythms and the Human
Author: D. S. Minors
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 148319342X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
Circadian Rhythms and the Human covers the basic principles behind the human circadian rhythms. This book is composed of 12 chapters that discuss the detection, analysis, and definition of rhythms, specifically exogenous and endogenous rhythms. This book also demonstrates the mechanism of metabolic and gastrointestinal rhythms. The opening chapters deal with the rhythms in living organism; establishing the endogeneity of rhythms; definition of nychthemeral rhythm; methods of measuring the frequency of rhythms; exogenous effects upon the temperature rhythm; interaction between exogenous and endogenous influences; and possible origins of renal rhythmicity. The succeeding chapters consider the effect of exercise at different times of day and the concept of sleep-wakefulness rhythm. The discussion then shifts to the effects of repeated time-zone transitions and the effects of time on drug administration. The closing chapters are devoted to the assessment of work performance during shift work. The book can provide useful information to doctors, students, researchers, and the general reader.

Rhythms of the Week
Author: Wolfgang Held

ISBN: 0863159699
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
The week has a remarkable rhythm that does not fit exactly with either the month or the year, yet most of humanity keeps faith with it. Why did the seven-day week triumph over other ways of subdividing the month in ancient times? The answer, as Wolfgang Held shows, is rooted in the human being. The human soul resonates from day to day in seven differing moods. Deepening our understanding of the characteristic weekly rhythm can give us strength and inspiration in the way we live our lives. Wolfgang Held goes on to discuss further rhythms at work in our lives — from the briefest moments to the seasons of the year — and explains ways in which our bodies influence our sense of time. This practical and inspirational book offers us fascinating insights into how we can develop our potential through a conscious relationship with time.
