    An original deep history of the internet that tells the story of the centuries-old utopian dreams behind it—and explains why they have died today 
     
    Many think of the internet as an unprecedented and overwhelmingly positive achievement of modern human technology. But is it? In The Internet Is Not What You Think It Is, Justin Smith offers an original deep history of the internet, from  
    the ancient to the modern world—uncovering its surprising origins in nature and centuries-old dreams of radically improving human life by outsourcing thinking to machines and communicating across vast distances. Yet, despite the internet’s  
    continuing potential, Smith argues, the utopian hopes behind it have finally died today, killed by the harsh realities of social media, the global information economy, and the attention-destroying nature of networked technology. 
     
    Ranging over centuries of the history and philosophy of science and technology, Smith shows how the “internet” has been with us much longer than we usually think. He draws fascinating connections between internet user experience,  
    artificial intelligence, the invention of the printing press, communication between trees, and the origins of computing in the machine-driven looms of the silk industry. At the same time, he reveals how the internet’s organic structure and  
    development root it in the natural world in unexpected ways that challenge efforts to draw an easy line between technology and nature. 
     
    Combining the sweep of intellectual history with the incisiveness of philosophy, The Internet Is Not What You Think It Is cuts through our daily digital lives to give a clear-sighted picture of what the internet is, where it came from, and where it might be taking us in the coming decades.

    Modern culture has rendered twentysomethings trivial while simultaneously glamorizing them, leaving young adults confused about their place in the world. However, as psychologist Meg Jay argues in The Defining Decade (2012), the twenties are a transformative age that cannot be taken lightly. Based on her years of experience and research, Jay finds that this period is characterized by multiple changes, which leave young adults vulnerable to anxiety and failure. These changes affect their body, identity, career, relationships, and future endeavors. It is essential to offer them helpful mentorship and guidelines for navigating the twenties, so that they can thrive and build strong pillars for a fruitful and happy future.

    During a near-death experience, an end-stage terminal cancer patient had a profound, emotionally transformative experience in which she let go of all fear—she rallied and became cancer free in a few short weeks. A devout woman, body twisted, wasted, and brought to the brink of death by years of multiple sclerosis, heard a Voice, stood up, and walked—she was healed in minutes. Although these and thousands of similarly amazing cases have been medically verified, most doctors and most people believe that such cases cannot be true because the science underlying modern medicine doesn't provide any explanation for how such rapid physical change could be possible. Medicine's underlying science, however, has changed little despite nearly a hundred years of breakthroughs in physics—breakthroughs that do provide scientific explanations for these cases. 
     
     
     
    Modern physics' breakthroughs support millennia old spiritual traditions that suggest that not only is extraordinary, miraculous healing possible, but that we have innate soul powers—our emotions, personal beliefs, and our ability to connect to Spirit—that directly and powerfully determine our health and ability to self-heal. Modern physics and experiential spiritual traditions give us an unlimited view of health and healing that puts controllable influences, emotion, belief, and connection to Spirit, in charge.

    Hanging Out - The Radical Power...

    A smart and empowering book about the simple art of hanging out . . . and of taking back our social lives from the deadening whirl of contemporary life. 
     
     
     
    Almost every day it seems that our world becomes more fractured, more digital, and more chaotic. Sheila Liming has the answer: we need to hang out more. 
     
     
     
    Starting with the assumption that play is to children as hanging out is to adults, Liming makes a brilliant case for the necessity of unstructured social time as a key element of our cultural vitality. The book asks questions like what is hanging out? why is it important? why do we do it? how do we do it? and examines the various ways we hang out—in groups, online, at parties, at work. 
     
     
     
    Hanging Out: The Radical Power of Killing Time makes an intelligent case for the importance of this most casual of social structures and shows us how just getting together can be a potent act of resistance all on its own.
