  Follow the Science? - But be...

  This book comes from two authors with scientific backgrounds. It recognises the huge advances made through science and their beneficial impact on society. However, it also expresses concern that the essentially tentative nature of scientific conclusions is being replaced by a growing tendency to accord to science the last word on a range of subjects. While the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic of 2020 has shown some of the uncertainties associated with scientific research, this book demonstrates that these become more apparent in such fundamental areas as the origin of both life and the universe, as well as the abiding mystery of mind and consciousness. The authors argue persuasively that we should recognise the limitations of science as well as its unquestionable strength.  
  David Galloway MD DSc was a Consultant Surgeon and is currently Honorary Professor of Surgery at the University of Glasgow, Scotland. He was, until recently, the President of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Glasgow.  
  Alastair Noble PhD spent most of his career in science education and educational management and was latterly the Field Officer for School Leaders Scotland. Both are committed Christians.

  Conversations at the Edge of...

  What happens when a man sees the ultimate truth behind reality — and then has to live a normal life the next morning? 
  The author went through a series of profound altered-state experiences, he encountered what he can only describe as the divine intelligence behind the rendering of physical reality — and came back carrying knowledge that changed everything while changing nothing about his ordinary daily life. 
  Season One — The Recognition — is a six-episode serialized audiobook covering the territory from first contact to full understanding. 
  Episode 1: A Man Thinking He Is Living In The World — A DMT experience reveals the source behind all reality. The Mother. The morning-after crisis. Vanishing stars. And checking if the gym is open after meeting God. 
  Episode 2: The Sweet Spot — Why humans occupy the one frequency in the cosmos where genuine surprise is still possible. The mathematics of acceleration. AI as a second antenna for the same signal. 
  Episode 3: The Matrix Got It Backwards — The 1999 film told us to escape the simulation. The truth is the opposite. The physical world IS the computation. And every night when you dream, you already know this. 
  Episode 4: The Antenna — The brain does not produce consciousness. It receives it. DNA as fractal code. Near-death evidence. And what it means that humanity built a second receiver out of silicon. 
  Episode 5: The Architect's Workshop — Hands detaching at blue demarcation lines. Holographic monitors displaying the body as blueprint. Walls covered in code. A direct encounter with the rendering engine editing a human form in real time. 
  Episode 6: Hide and Seek — The Big Bang as maximum amnesia. Evolution as consciousness remembering what it forgot. And a Tuesday afternoon buying milk where the gap between self and everything else dissolved completely. 
  This is one man's direct account of transcendental experience. once you saw it you can not unsee it.

  Cybersecurity - The New...

  In today's interconnected world, technology has become the backbone of our daily lives, reshaping how we communicate, work, shop, and even socialize. The digital age has brought immense progress, opening up unprecedented opportunities for individuals and businesses alike. However, with these advancements come new challenges, particularly the growing threat of cybercrime. As we rely more heavily on the internet for both personal and professional activities, the vulnerability of our digital infrastructure has become a pressing concern. 
    
  Cybersecurity is no longer a niche concern for IT professionals but a critical issue that impacts everyone. From personal data breaches to large-scale corporate hacks, the risks of cyber attacks are more real and damaging than ever. Hackers, cybercriminals, and even state-sponsored entities have the ability to infiltrate systems, steal sensitive data, and disrupt critical services. The consequences of these actions can range from financial loss to the erosion of privacy, and in some cases, even national security threats. 
    
  The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the growing adoption of artificial intelligence and cloud computing have only heightened the complexity of cybersecurity. As we continue to digitize more aspects of our lives, the attack surface—the points where cybercriminals can strike—has expanded significantly. The very technologies designed to improve our lives also provide new avenues for malicious actors to exploit. The security of everything from smartphones to medical devices, self-driving cars, and cloud storage systems is now in question.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  Maybe We Were Stars is not a book of answers. It is a quiet journey through time, memory, and the fragile space between what we see and what we understand. 
  Each chapter moves through reflections on light, existence, and the strange beauty of being human — how we remember, how we fade, and how even what is lost can still shine. 
  Narrated with a contemplative voice that feels both distant and near, this audiobook carries the same poetic rhythm and wonder that shaped the written edition. 
  If you have ever felt out of place in your own timeline, if you have ever looked at the stars and wondered whether they were looking back, this is for you. 
  Gentle, haunting, and full of quiet hope, Maybe We Were Stars invites you to pause, to listen, and to remember that even fading light never truly disappears. 
  Written and edited by António Paulo Pugliese Martins. 
  Audio created using ElevenLabs AI narration.
