Beyond the Iron Age: The ecological relevance of bioactive trace metals other…
The catalysis of chemical reactions is one of the most central processes in biology, as most reactions in living organisms would occur too slowly to play any role in their metabolism. For example, the rate of biologically relevant reactions would take hundreds to millions of years in the absence of a catalyst (Stockbridge et al., 2010)

Beyond the Horizon
Society is never just a localized aggregate of people but exists by virtue of its members’ narrative and conceptual awareness of other times and places. In Jukka Siikala’s work this idea evolves into a broad ethnographic and theoretical interest in worlds beyond the horizon, in the double sense of “past” and “abroad.”
