  How can we use information rather than be subjected to it? Does life have a digital logic? Is the internal structure of the universe made up of information? Is the Internet generating a collective brain?
  Ever since Homo sapiens, armed with his electronic machines, learned to unlock the secret of information and its alchemy by digitizing it, he has unleashed hyperinformation. This force is a subtle blend of matter and thought, animate and inanimate, virtual and real. For the first time in human history, technology seems to be generating a collective intelligence. Does this mean that reason is becoming truly alien to itself, potentially hostile and dangerous? Or are we witnessing the happy dawn of a new era?
  Homo sapiens 2.0 offers a journey into the mysteries of the human brain, the mysteries of genes and memes (their mental equivalent), and the secrets of language, religion and new technologies. From René Girard to Richard Dawkins, from Teilhard de Chardin to Joël de Rosnay, the author recounts the saga of thought in the age of the virtual. In-between each chapter, “Interludes” take us on a journey through literary works or enlightening scientific experiments.

  This Stolen Land - A People's...

  The Gwent Levels line the north shore of the Severn Estuary in South Wales: Chepstow at their head; their more famous cousin, the Somerset Levels, across the water; the Welsh capital, Cardiff at their feet. You could waste an hour crossing the Levels by motorway. Or brush aside the journey by train. But writer Marsha O'Mahony has chosen the slow route of foreshore, footpath, and country lane. Over the course of two years, she meandered from village to village collecting conversations and anecdotes as she went. The result is a remarkable oral and social history of this unique landscape and the people who live there.

  Making Faith Magnetic - Five...

  How to talk about Jesus in a way that connects with modern culture. As followers of Jesus, we know that the good news is deeply attractive. But we often fear that to those on the outside, it comes across as irrelevant or even repellent. Sometimes, the Christian worldview feels so out of step with everything else going on, that we don't know how to share our faith.  However, author Daniel Strange wants to show you that the connections are there - in fact, the longings that our culture cannot help but express are the very ones that Jesus fulfils.  Building on the work of theologian J.H. Bavinck, Dan reveals five recurring themes that our culture can’t stop talking about, or, as he puts it, the “five permanent ‘itches’ that in our work, rest, and play, we have to vigorously scratch.” From TV to books to social media, these are the questions we can't stop asking and the tensions we can't stop wrestling with - and Jesus speaks powerfully into each one.  This book will help you to spot these connections in our culture, excite you about how Jesus makes sense of humankind’s deepest questions and longings, apply them to your own life first, and then equip you to speak of him to others in a way that is truly magnetic.

  "The Antichrist" is a philosophical work by Friedrich Nietzsche, written in 1888 as part of his critique of organized religion, particularly Christianity. In this book, Nietzsche sharply criticizes the morality and values of Christianity, presenting his ideas on the concept of the "Antichrist" as a figure opposed to Christian doctrine and morality. He delves into topics such as the decline of Christianity, the nature of morality, the will to power, and the reevaluation of values.
