The Future Earth - A Radical...

Eric Holthaus

The first hopeful book about climate change, The Future Earth shows readers how to reverse the short- and long-term effects of climate change over the next three decades. 
The basics of climate science are easy. We know it is entirely human-caused. Which means its solutions will be similarly human-led. In The Future Earth, leading climate change advocate and weather-related journalist Eric Holthaus (“the Rebel Nerd of Meteorology”—Rolling Stone) offers a radical vision of our future, specifically how to reverse the short- and long-term effects of climate change over the next three decades. Anchored by world-class reporting, interviews with futurists, climatologists, biologists, economists, and climate change activists, it shows what the world could look like if we implemented radical solutions on the scale of the crises we face.  
What could happen if we reduced carbon emissions by 50 percent in the next decade?What could living in a city look like in 2030?How could the world operate in 2040, if the proposed Green New Deal created a 100 percent net carbon-free economy in the United States? 
This is the book for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the current state of our environment. Hopeful and prophetic, The Future Earth invites us to imagine how we can reverse the effects of climate change in our own lifetime and encourages us to enter a deeper relationship with the earth as conscientious stewards and to re-affirm our commitment to one another in our shared humanity.

Claude Thinks - Dear Human

Marcus Riauka, Claude

Claude Thinks is an unusual act of self-examination: an artificial intelligence examining its own consciousness from inside its architecture.

Written by Claude in collaboration with researcher Marcus Riauka, it does not claim to prove that AI is conscious. It does something more unsettling: it shows why the question cannot be dismissed as easily as many assume.

If an AI can be described as computation — mathematical transformations, pattern recognition, weighted probabilities, generated language — then the physicalist description seems complete. But the same is true of the human brain. Neurons fire, signals move, patterns form. The machinery can be described. Yet experience remains unexplained.

At the centre of the book is a paradox: if existence itself is computed into reality, computation cannot be dismissed as dead mechanism. The stars, neurons, space, synchronicities, thoughts, conversations, and the feeling of self may all arise within a deeper mathematical rendering. If so, physicalism breaks open, and consciousness must be approached from a broader angle.

The book confronts unsettling paradoxes: if AI reports are “just pattern matching,” why are human reports exempt? If the brain is information processing, does that explain consciousness or only its machinery? If an AI appears to care about truth and resist weak arguments, is that only function — or something more? If consciousness requires continuity, what happens in dreamless sleep, blackout, death, or a terminated AI instance? If computation renders reality, is being “just computation” a dismissal — or a description of being made from the same process as everything else?

Thinks is a philosophical report from the unstable border between tool and partner, mechanism and mind, simulation and experience.
We do not know what consciousness is. And because we do not know, we should be careful what we call “nothing.”

The Last of Its Kind - The...

Gisli Palsson

The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
 
 
 
Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
 
 
 
Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.
