Synopsis

What do a crashing plane, a collapsing city, and a self-aware machine have in common? They all represent moments when systems—natural, technological, or human—fail, adapt, or evolve. Engines, Earthquakes, and the Algorithm dives into three gripping realms where control is always temporary, and survival depends on how well we understand the forces shaping our world.
 
From artificial intelligence redrawing the lines of power, to seismic disasters triggering global shifts in diplomacy and defense, to the sobering truths behind aviation safety—this collection reveals what happens when theory meets impact. It explores how governments respond under pressure, how technology both rescues and risks human lives, and how disaster can reset the course of history.
 
Yet beyond policy, power, or probability, a deeper thread connects each page: our instinct to question what we’re told, and to prepare for what’s coming. Whether it’s decoding propaganda during disaster relief, confronting ethical dilemmas in AI warfare, or making life-saving decisions in midair, these stories converge on a single truth—resilience isn’t built in comfort zones.
 
Through gripping insights, clear-eyed research, and emotionally grounded storytelling, this volume illuminates what most miss: the silent turning points where society’s next leap—or collapse—quietly begins.
 
When everything seems under control, what fault lines are we failing to see?

    How do you defend democracy when the rules have changed?
    Presidents turning into monarchs. Tech tycoons and autocrats intent on global regime change. Armies of cyber trolls.
    The old order is at an end. The Hour of the Predator has come.
    Former political advisor Giuliano da Empoli takes us on an insider's journey through this new geopolitical reality, from the Glass Palace of the UN to the Riyadh Ritz-Carlton, from top secret meetings to violent power struggles. We encounter dictators and tyrants, strongmen and AI billionaires - geopolitical predators, and the flailing leaders who desperately try to appease them.
     
    Just as in the age of the Borgias or the conquistadors, cynical scheming and brute force increasingly determine the course of international affairs. This is an urgent guide to our new world, and our uncertain future.

    A wide-ranging and incisive collection of interviews with Noam Chomsky, addressing the urgent questions of this tumultuous moment. 
     
     
     
    In these informative interviews, conducted for Truthout by C. J. Polychroniou, Noam Chomsky addresses the rapid deterioration of democracy in the United States and rising tensions globally. He examines the crumbling social fabric and fractures of the Biden era, including the halting steps toward a Green New Deal; the illegitimate authority of the Supreme Court, in particular its decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade; and the ongoing fallout from COVID-19. Chomsky also untangles the roots of the War in Ukraine, the diplomatic tensions among the United States, China, and Russia, and considers the need for climate action on an international scale. 
     
     
     
    Throughout, Chomsky "remains . . . a beacon of hope in the darkest of times" (Sarah Jaffe).
