What should be the top environmental priority for the next 40 years? :: Experts speakers argue their cases ahead of an Earthwatch debate in London this weekEducation and population â€" Sir Crispin TickellOur society faces a rich complex of problems. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution some 250 years ago, our animal species has changed the character of the Earth's land surface, seas and atmosphere: hence the increasing use among geologists of the term Anthropocene to follow the Holocene epoch.Of all the interconnected problems we face, perhaps the most serious is the proliferation of our own species.

The following addresses both issues.

Diagnostic Tools and Imaging Methods in Intervertebral Disk Degeneration :: This article reviews new and evolving MRI disk-imaging techniques, including grading, relaxation-time measurements, diffusion, and contrast perfusion.
