Synopsis

Ancient Bones explores the captivating field of paleoanthropology, revealing how fossilized human remains offer a tangible connection to our past and illuminate the hidden chapters of human evolution. By examining hominin fossils like "Lucy" (Australopithecus afarensis) and Homo erectus, we gain insights into the development of early societies and trace the lineage of humanity. The book emphasizes the intricate process of uncovering and analyzing these ancient bones, showcasing how advancements in technology have revolutionized our ability to extract information from them.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the principles of paleoanthropology and the methods used to date and analyze fossils. It then examines pivotal fossil discoveries, discussing their implications for understanding human evolution. Finally, it explores the transition from early hominins to modern Homo sapiens. By incorporating data from fields like geology, genetics, and archaeology, Ancient Bones offers a holistic view of human origins and provides a comprehensive look at the controversies and debates surrounding particular fossil finds, addressing common misconceptions about human evolution.

    An ideal primer for anyone implementing a PIMS based on ISO/IEC 27701
    ISO/IEC 27701:2019 is a privacy extension to the international information security management standard, ISO/IEC 27001. It has been designed to integrate with ISO 27001 to extend an existing ISMS (information security management system) with additional requirements, enabling an organisation to establish, implement, maintain and continually improve its PIMS.
    ISO 27701 provides guidance on the protection of privacy, including how organisations should manage personal information, and helps demonstrate compliance with privacy regulations around the world, such as the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).
    ISO/IEC 27701:2019: An introduction to privacy information management offers a concise introduction to the Standard, aiding those organisations looking to improve their privacy information management regime, particularly where ISO/IEC 27701:2019 is involved. It is intended for:
    
    - Individuals looking for general information about privacy information management; and
    - Organisations implementing, or considering improving, a PIMS, particularly where the use of ISO/IEC 27701:2019 is being considered.
    It will enable you to understand the basics of privacy information management, including:
    
    - What privacy information management means;
    - How to manage privacy information successfully using a PIMS aligned to ISO/IEC 27701;
    - Key areas of investment for a business-focused PIMS; and
    - How your organisation can demonstrate the degree of assurance it offers with regard to privacy information management.
    This guide will prove useful throughout a number of stages in any privacy information management project – buy your copy today!

    A vast censorship regime has smothered America's digital marketplace of ideas, squelching free speech on vital policy issues. Its supporters regard its benefits as morally and politically beyond question. They contend it's carried out by private social media platforms, not governmental authorities. 
     
     
     
    In Free Speech and Turbulent Freedom, Michael J. Glennon offers a timely and incisive response. The censors are short-sighted, he argues. Quibbling over outdated distinctions misses the real threat—which is the fusion of public and private power into a modern-day cartel able to overleap longstanding constitutional safeguards. American democracy, he argues, rests on a decentralized marketplace of ideas independent of the government. In crisp, trenchant terms, Glennon shows how concrete practical concerns justify protecting admittedly harmful online speech—even speech that advocates violence or embraces hatred or apparent falsehood. 
     
     
     
    To safely self-correct, democracy requires open channels of political communication. Glennon calls on the courts to unblock those channels—to measure such speech against enduring First Amendment precepts rather than pliable international norms—and to protect the speech interests not merely of the government and Big Tech, but of all participants in the marketplace of ideas.

    Are robots going to take my job? How are smartphones affecting my kids? Do I need to worry about privacy when I get online or ask Siri for directions? Whatever questions you have about AI, The Age of AI gives you insights on how to navigate this brand-new world as you apply God's ageless truths to your life and future. 
    We interact with artificial intelligence, or AI, nearly every moment of the day without knowing it. From our social media feeds to our smart thermostats and Alexa and Google Home, AI is everywhere--but how is it shaping our world? 
    In The Age of AI, Jason Thacker, associate research fellow at the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, helps us navigate our digital age in this thoughtful exploration of the social, moral, and ethical challenges of our ongoing interactions with artificial intelligence. 
    Applying God's Word to this new AI-empowered age, Thacker sheds light on:How Christian truth transforms the way we use AIHow AI affects us individually, in our relationships, and in our society at largeHow to navigate the digital age wisely 
      
    With theological depth and a wide awareness of the current trends in AI, Jason is a steady guide who reminds us that while technology is changing the world, it can't shake the foundations of the Christian faith. 
    Praise for The Age of AI: 
    "The Age of AI informs us and assists us in envisioning a future that is filled with tools, influences, opportunities, and challenges relating to artificial intelligence. While many may fear the unknown future before us, Jason Thacker presents the imperative need to always lift up the constancy of the image of God and the dignity of all human life as presented in the Holy Scriptures, the Bible. I am thankful Jason's book can help churches, pastors, theologians, and Christian leaders in all vocations to wrestle through this current topic, always being committed to what this book states profoundly: God-given dignity isn't ours to assign or remove." 
    --Dr. Ronnie Floyd, president and CEO, Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee

    A groundbreaking history that explores how human desires have affected our relationship with the natural world, and why this is a cause for hope Donald Worster looks back over 200,000 years of Homo sapiens to show how human nature, especially the drive for food and sex, has responded to environmental conditions throughout history. Examining how this process led from foraging to the agrarian revolution and then to a capitalist way of life, Worster brings us face to face with a third transformation of human society that is beginning to take shape in China: an ecological civilization. This meticulously researched book explores how human desires have driven us to overrun our environments, and how we have adapted by creating new relationships with the earth. Tying the past to the future and humans to the planet, Worster acknowledges that we are at a potentially dangerous tipping point. Yet he offers a surprisingly optimistic vision, full of faith in the strength of our human desires, to help us develop exciting futures in a changing world—as we have done time and again—and achieve a good life for the billions of us trying to survive on a finite planet.
