  Future Morality

  The world is changing so fast that it's hard to know how to think about what we ought to do. We barely have time to reflect on how scientific advances will affect our lives before they're upon us. New kinds of dilemma are springing up. Can robots be held responsible for their actions? Will artificial intelligence be able to predict criminal activity? Is the future gender-fluid? Should we strive to become post-human? Should we use drugs to improve our intimate relationships—or to reduce crime? Our intuitions about questions like these are often both weak and confused. 
   
   
   
  David Edmonds has put together a philosophical task force to get to grips with these challenges. Twenty-nine philosophers present provocative and engaging pieces about aspects of life today, and life tomorrow—birth and death, health and medicine, brain and body, personal relationships, wrongdoing and justice, the internet, animals, and the environment. The future won't look the same when you've finished this book.

  “God has delivered you unto me.” 
  Hidden away high amongst the arid cliffs of the western mountains sits the settlement of Vero. Under the watchful gaze of The Prophet, this village has long remained isolated. Said to be chosen by god himself, the divine leader wields absolute and unyielding control over the minds of his subjects. 
  As son of The Prophet, Finn Vale is de facto royalty within the compound. Independent and uninterested in his father’s teachings, the young man’s curiosity is piqued when a mysterious and handsome traveler arrives at the community. 
  Finn can’t help but stare at the charming foreigner’s thick biceps and powerful, masculine frame. It goes against his father’s teachings, but he wants to be alone with this stranger…he wants to fall to his knees. 
  He soon realizes there’s only one thing in life worth worshipping, and it’s between this man’s legs.

  Social Character in a Mexican...

  “[A] groundbreaking study combining psychoanalytical and anthropological methods to analyse the impact of industrialization on ‘peasants.’” —Booknews The renowned psychoanalyst Erich Fromm analyzed more than just general society and societal processes. Together with Michael Maccoby, he completed a study of Mexican villagers to empirically illustrate how historical, economic, and social requirements determine behavior.Social Character in a Mexican Village does much more than introduce a new approach to the analysis of social phenomena. It throws new light on one of the world’s most pressing problems, the impact of the industrialized world on the traditional character of the laboring class. Unanimously, the book is an outstanding introduction to Fromm’s concept of social character. “Fromm and Maccoby have written a study of crucial importance.” —Richard J. Barnet, Institute for Policy Studies
