Sinopsis

"Book Evolution" traces the remarkable journey of the book, from ancient scrolls to modern ebooks, highlighting its profound impact on society. The book examines how pivotal shifts in format, like the invention of the printing press, revolutionized not only information storage but also education and governance. Each chapter explores the social, political, and economic conditions that facilitated these technological advancements, revealing how the book's evolution is intertwined with broader cultural and intellectual shifts.

 
The narrative begins with early manuscripts, detailing their creation and role in monastic culture, before diving into the printing press era and its democratization of knowledge. The digital age, with ebooks and audiobooks, is then analyzed for its challenges and opportunities.

 
A central argument is that the book's form actively shapes its content and understanding, offering a unique perspective on the reciprocal relationship between technology and society. The book draws upon primary sources and interdisciplinary scholarship to provide a comprehensive account suitable for students, researchers, and anyone fascinated by the history of media.

The New Goliaths - How...

An approach to reinvigorating economic competition that doesn’t break up corporate giants, but compels them to share their technology, data, and knowledge 
  
“Bessen is a master of unpacking the nuances of a complex array of interrelated trends to build a coherent story of how the promise of the democratized Internet ended up under the control of just a few. Read The New Goliaths to see how the forest came to have only room for a few tall trees with the rest of us in the undergrowth.”—Joshua Gans, coauthor of Prediction Machines: The Simple Economics of Artificial Intelligence 
  
Historically, competition has powered progress under capitalism. Companies with productive new products rise to the top, but sooner or later, competitors come along with better innovations and disrupt the threat of monopoly. Dominant firms like Walmart, Amazon, and Google argue that this process of “creative destruction” prevents them from becoming too powerful or entrenched. 
  
But the threat of competition has sharply decreased over the past twenty years, and today’s corporate giants have come to power by using proprietary information technologies to create a tilted playing field. This development has increased economic inequality and social division, slowed innovation, and allowed dominant firms to evade government regulation. In the face of increasing calls to break up the largest companies, James Bessen argues that a better way to restore competitive balance and dynamism is to encourage or compel these companies to share technology, data, and knowledge.

Actual Real-Life Role-Playing Games - A Gamefully Philosophical View on Life and How to Design and Play It - cover

Actual Real-Life Role-Playing...

Victoria Ichizli-Bartels

A life gamer shares her philosophy of life and shows how easy it can be to live gamefully and joyfully. 
You might not know it yet, but you and everyone on Earth are experimental philosophers; building our view on life, and the worlds inside and outside us. We experience, research, and discover these worlds, beginning in childhood and continuing to do so for as long as we live.  
Philosophers have discussed life and games over many centuries, and in most cases, they have seen them as separate entities. In recent times, the benefit of games on our well-being and the prosperity of humanity has been highlighted, but these works still consider reality and games to be utterly different. 
This book boldly claims, “Life is a game, and games are life.” 
It explores the evidence for this statement and extends it to show that anything in life is not only a game but also an actual real-life role-playing game and, beyond that, a Choose Your Own Adventure. 
The author of the book also presents three actual real-life role-playing games you can play where you are right now, regardless of the circumstances in your life and how you feel about them and yourself. These simple but unique games will help you return to the joyful path of experiencing life wholeheartedly.  
As you read, you will become aware of the skill sets of a self-anthropologist, kaizen master, and self-motivational game designer, which merge into the synergy of a successful and happy life gamer. 
Don’t wait any longer: Open this book, and start playing the role-playing game of life.
