Synopsis

"Alien Megastructures" explores the captivating search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) by examining the potential for detecting advanced alien civilizations through "technosignatures" – large-scale alterations to their environments. It delves into the intriguing possibility of Dyson spheres, hypothetical megastructures built around stars to harness their energy, and analyzes anomalous space signals that might indicate extraterrestrial activity. The book highlights that even without direct communication, the "footprints" of alien engineering could be detectable across interstellar distances.The book presents a multidisciplinary approach, combining astrophysics, engineering, and computer science to assess the feasibility of detecting these megastructures and interpreting complex signals. It investigates the scientific principles behind star-sized engineering projects, like Dyson spheres and the challenges of distinguishing between natural phenomena and genuine signs of alien activity, such as the famous Wow! signal.It progresses from the Drake Equation and Fermi Paradox to detailed analyses of potential megastructures and concludes with a discussion of the broader implications of such a discovery. This book stands out by providing a balanced and critical view of the evidence, emphasizing scientific rigor and avoiding sensationalism. It equips readers with the tools to evaluate claims about alien megastructures and signals, offering an engaging and informative journey into the quest to answer whether we are alone in the universe.

    The revolution will not take place indoors.
    
    Kenyan beekeeper-turned-farmer Jess de Boer embarks upon a decade-long journey to find purpose and potential in the explosive world of regenerative agriculture.
    
    From honey hunting in the last remaining pockets of rainforest in southern Ethiopia, to gardening in the depths of Kenya's largest slum, Jess takes you to the arid lands of Northern Kenya where a group of pioneering farmers have begun to connect the people with the dust beneath their feet.
    
    This is a journey into restorative action. Confronting the challenges of our stagnant education systems, unsustainable food production techniques and the growing disconnect of our youth, de Boer merges fact and science with hard-won wisdom in this inspiring and accessible tale of proactivity and hope.

    Most people believe that they were either benefited or at least not harmed by being brought into existence. Thus, if they ever do reflect on whether they should bring others into existence—rather than having children without even thinking about whether they should—they presume that they do them no harm. Better Never to Have Been challenges these assumptions. David Benatar argues that coming into existence is always a serious harm. Those who never exist cannot be deprived. However, by coming into existence one does suffer quite serious harms that could not have befallen one had one not come into existence. Drawing on the relevant psychological literature, the author shows that there are a number of well-documented features of human psychology that explain why people systematically overestimate the quality of their lives and why they are thus resistant to the suggestion that they were seriously harmed by being brought into existence. The author then argues for the "anti-natal" view—that it is always wrong to have children—and he shows that combining the anti-natal view with common pro-choice views about fetal moral status yield a "pro-death" view about abortion. Although counter-intuitive for many, that implication is defended, not least by showing that it solves many conundrums of moral theory about population.

    Recognition of the energy, the evolutionary essence of Nature, allows us to believe that vitalism - the power of life - is not determined by the divine spirit in living organisms, but by bioenergetics. It is the totality of the processes of converting incoming external energy into biologically useful work of living systems.
