The story of Nobel Prize-winning discoveries regarding the molecular mechanisms controlling the body's circadian rhythm.

How much of our fate is decided before we are born? Which of our characteristics is inscribed in our DNA? Weiner brings us into Benzer's Fly Rooms at the California Institute of Technology, where Benzer, and his asssociates are in the process of finding answers, often astonishing ones, to these questions. Part biography, part thrilling scientific detective story, Time, Love, Memory forcefully demonstrates how Benzer's studies are changing our world view--and even our lives.

Jonathan Weiner, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for The Beak of the Finch, brings his brilliant reporting skills to the story of Seymour Benzer, the Brooklyn-born maverick scientist whose study of genetics and experiments with fruit fly genes has helped revolutionize or knowledge of the connections between DNA and behavior both animal and human.

Silky, Effective Body Lotion With Strong Scent
In the winter, my skin is prone to becoming very dry and flaky. I ordered this "Kojic Acid & Papaya Body Lotion - Exfoliating, Hydrating, Moisturizing, Skin Care for Sun-Damaged Skin" by Koji White hoping it could help keep my skin from feeling dry and itchy. I ordered this lotion in mid Dec 2025, and the bottle is labeled with a manufacturing date in late Oct 2025 and an expiration date of Oct 2028. I’d consider this a very fresh product. The pump works smoothly, and I didn’t have any trouble getting it to dispense lotion. The label lists Thailand as the country of manufacture. I also liked that the listing describes the product as vegan and free of animal testing. I’ve been vegetarian for about 30 years, so this matters to me. I’m aroma sensitive, and this lotion lists fragrance as one of the ingredients, which is always a gamble for me. I definitely detect tropical fruity notes, and papaya is listed in both the name and ingredient list. There’s also a noticeable floral scent. I don’t usually like floral fragrances, but the fruity and floral scents complement each other fairly well. Unfortunately, the scent is much stronger than I prefer and seems to linger. I really like how this lotion feels on my skin. It’s a little less creamy than I expected given how hydrating it is, but it applies smoothly and evenly. It absorbs quickly without leaving my skin feeling sticky or greasy. My skin feels hydrated and silky smooth after applying, and it’s made a noticeable difference in how the skin on my legs looks and feels. Unfortunately, I’ve only been able to use it on my legs when I’m wearing pants because the fragrance is too intense for me. I love the results and wish I could comfortably use it all over. Overall, I really like this lotion. It has everything I look for to help prevent dry winter skin. The only drawback for me is that it’s more heavily scented than I prefer. At the time of my order, the 250 ml (8.45 oz) bottle cost $20. Given the quality and performance, that feels like a good value. For people who enjoy more strongly scented products, this lotion could be an excellent choice. Since fragrance preference is so personal, I won’t be deducting any stars from my rating.

Lovely!
I have been using this Kojic Acid and Papaya body lotion, and it is just a lovely lotion with a great scent. That papaya gives it such a sweet, tropical aroma that makes me feel like I’m on a bit of a vacation every time I put it on after my morning shower. It’s been very hydrating for my skin, and I’ve noticed it has a nice exfoliating quality that helps smooth out those rough patches, especially on my elbows and knees. It’s a real comfort to know that it’s vegan and paraben-free, so I don't have to worry about any harsh chemicals while I’m trying to take care of sun-damaged areas. The 8.45-ounce bottle is a perfect size for the vanity, and the lotion itself sinks right in without leaving me feeling greasy, which is a real plus when I’m trying to get dressed in a hurry.
