We live in an age of ubiquitous genomics. Next generation sequencing (NGS) technology, both widely adopted and advancing at pace, has transformed the data landscape, opening up an enormous source of heritable characters to the comparative biologist. Its impact on systematics, like many other fields of biology, has been felt throughout its breadth: from defining species boundaries to estimating their evolutionary histories. This volume examines the broad range of ways in which NGS data are being used in systematics and in the fields that it underpins, from biodiversity prospecting to evo-devo. Experts in their fields draw on contemporary case studies to demonstrate state-of-the-art applications of NGS data. These, along with novel analyses, comprehensive reviews and lively perspectives, are combined to produce an authoritative account of contemporary issues in systematics that have been impacted by the adoption of NGS.

《Your Next Fifty Years》為現代中壯年重新定義「退休」的概念。作者 Collins 與 Wall 以心理學與理財專業為基礎，主張退休不該被視為結束，而是一場「再出發」──一段重新聚焦與實踐理想的時光。本書提供具體的思考方向與工具，如假期式退休、彈性工時與階段性退休等新選項，並附有表格、檢核表與「Smart Tips」協助規劃投資、保險與遺產安排。書中也關注女性與中年族群在職場變動、伴侶離世或健康挑戰下的財務應對，兼具實用與啟發性。For millions of Americans in their thirties and forties retirement will have an entirely different meaning than it had for their parents. Most have saved a little, spent a lot, seen pensions cut and Social Security squeezed, and will live longer than any generation before. Your Next Fifty Years challenges baby boomers to develop a completely new perspective: retirement as renaissance - not the end of working life, but rather a time to renew, refocus, and recharge, based on long-range dreams and goals. Collins and Wall draw upon their unique training in psychology and financial planning to explore practical alternatives to the traditional concept of retirementalternatives such as sabbaticals, flextime, and temporary or part-time retirement.
