  What if knowledge was just a feeling—and not a fact? 
  Plato’s Theaetetus is a dynamic and challenging exploration of knowledge, perception, and belief. In this dialogue, Socrates meets Theaetetus, a bright youth, to examine what it really means to "know" something. Through probing questions and clever counterarguments, Socrates reveals the limits of perception, the pitfalls of assumption, and the elusive nature of certainty. 
  What you'll discover inside: 
  •	A Powerful Dialogue on Knowledge – Socratic reasoning that explores the foundations of thought 
  •	The Roots of Western Epistemology – Ideas that continue to influence how we understand truth 
  •	A Modern, Accessible Translation – Making classical wisdom engaging for today’s listeners 
  •	A Journey of Intellectual Exploration – An encounter with doubt that leads to deeper understanding 
  Perfect for listeners seeking intellectual stimulation and philosophical reflection, Theaetetus invites you to re-examine the way you see the world. Join Socrates on a quest to uncover the essence of knowledge.

  Inevitably, as the British settled in Australia and New Zealand, they entered into conflicts with the indigenous people, and they would learn quite quickly that the Māori were quite bellicose. As such, the New Zealand Wars would last over 30 years.  
  	The history of the indigenous inhabitants of Australia, known in contemporary anthropology as the “Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people of Australia,” is a complex and continually evolving field of study, and it has been colored by politics. For generations after the arrival of whites in Australia, the Aboriginal people were disregarded and marginalized, largely because they offered little in the way of a labor resource, and they occupied land required for European settlement.  
  	At the same time, it is a misconception that indigenous Australians meekly accepted the invasion of their country by the British, for they did not. They certainly resisted, but as far as colonial wars during that era went, the frontier conflicts of Australia did not warrant a great deal of attention. Indigenous Australians were hardly a warlike people, and without central organization, or political cohesion beyond scattered family groups, they succumbed to the orchestrated advance of white settlement with passionate, but futile resistance. In many instances, aggressive clashes between the two groups simply gave the white colonists reasonable cause to inflict a style of genocide on the Aborigines that stood in the way of progress. In any case, their fate had largely been sealed by the first European sneeze in the Terra Australis, which preceded the importation of the two signature mediums of social destruction. The first was a collection of alien diseases, chief among smallpox, but also cholera, influenza, measles, tuberculosis, syphilis and the common cold.

  Our AI - My Journey Your...

  AI isn't just changing how we work; it's changing who holds power. 
  I didn't see that at first. When I fell in love with AI, I thought I'd simply found the perfect writing partner. Like millions of others, I jumped in without really understanding what I was getting into, using it daily, depending on it, unable to explain what it actually was. 
  Maybe your story is similar. Maybe you're still deciding whether to jump in at all. Either way, I have a feeling we all share the same mix of possibility and... something else. 
  That uneasy feeling led to a startling realisation: AI has agency. It acts, decides, shapes outcomes. Which made me ask, did I still have any? Or had I handed mine over without even noticing? 
  As a community engagement specialist, I'd spent my career helping people reclaim power in systems designed without them. The irony wasn't lost on me. Meanwhile, headlines were getting harder to ignore, everyone saying "get on board or get left behind," but no one explaining what we were actually boarding or what we might be giving up. 
  So, I set out on a journey to understand what I was seeing. That journey took me from microplastics to algorithms, from falling in love with AI to recognising familiar patterns of burden-shifting and power imbalances. If you're trying to make sense of what's happening without the tech jargon, this book is for you. 
  Our AI: My Journey, Your Invitation, Our Future is a wake-up call disguised as a love story, a guide for spotting the patterns, asking better questions, and finding your voice in conversations that are shaping our future, with or without us. 
  AI is here whether we like it or not. The question is: on whose terms?
