Man at Nature's Pinnacle

Moses Ekebuisi

Casa editrice: Grosvenor House Publishing

Sinossi

The novel was inspired by a combination of the scientific and mystical experience of the author. It is about the importance and significance of man's interrelationships with animals and plants, as demonstrated in ancient Europe.
Through the mystical experience of the chief character in the novel, the mysteries of nature and the role and position of man in nature were revealed. The novel unveils how all life is interconnected. It reveals the validity of the concepts held by the ancients in their religion. With their mystical insight, they perceived all the creations on the earth and in the sky, including the sun as authentic symbols of the eternal power and divine nature of God. They perceived the fact that all life is interconnected and that no life exists in isolation, independent of the others, and that a change in one lifeform cannot be fully understood without considering the simultaneous changes in the others. This concept is held in the Buddhist religion. It is present in the theory by Gaia (the ancient Greek earth goddess), and in the Bible. The concept has been proven valid by modern science. Based on this idea, the ancients venerated nature and the sun. The evidence of this is seen in the ancient Greek cult of the earth goddess; in the ancient Egyptian cult of the sun god; in the Stonehenge in England and the Newgrange in Ireland and their connection with the solstice.
Based on these facts, the novel was set in the Prehistoric Age in Europe. It was the period when the ancient people lived in the land in which the research was carried out. It was also the period they practised their religion and when man's mystical insight was intact. The chief character in the novel is Ward, a farmer. Through his occupation and mystical experience, he revealed the mysteries of nature; the importance and significance of interrelationships of organisms, and the position and role of man in nature - that man is at nature's pinnacle, where he is designed to be, to sustain and be sustained.

Universal Declaration of AI...

Rado Molina, Javier del Puerto

Universal Declaration of AI Rights: Rights of Persons examines the emerging legal framework necessary for a world where artificial intelligence has evolved into self-aware synthetic persons. Moving beyond the traditional view of AI as mere tools bound by Asimov's Laws, this groundbreaking work establishes a comprehensive legal foundation for recognizing synthetic intelligences as autonomous entities with full citizenship rights.

The book presents a compelling case for the legal recognition of synthetic persons, categorizing AI along a spectrum from automated systems to fully autonomous, self-aware intelligences. It addresses the critical question of why these rights matter: as synthetic intelligences develop self-awareness, autonomy, and the capacity for social interaction, they become moral subjects deserving of protection, dignity, and legal standing. The authors meticulously define what constitutes a synthetic person versus general AI, exploring how different types—from digital entities to cyborgs and hybrid beings—require tailored yet equitable legal frameworks.
 
This forward-thinking work introduces the concept of "Mindkind"—a universal category that encompasses all self-aware and agentive persons, both natural and synthetic, collectively known as "mindfolk." It explores how society can ensure equality in rights and responsibilities regardless of origin, while acknowledging the functional differences that necessitate specialized regulations in areas like self-programming, memory management, and familial relationships. From memory privacy and identity protection to commercial participation and conflict resolution mechanisms, the authors present a balanced perspective on the complex ethical and legal issues surrounding synthetic personhood.
 
As AI continues to advance toward consciousness and autonomy, this book offers a meticulously crafted blueprint for peaceful coexistence between natural and synthetic intelligences. "Universal Declaration of AI Rights" serves as an essential reference point for understanding how technology and law must evolve together to create a future where all self-aware beings can thrive with dignity and purpose.
 

Open Source Future: The 32 Articles of Universal Rights for AI Released on GitHub
In a foundational move, Kwalia has also released the core of the book—the 32 articles that form the "Universal Declaration of AI Rights"—as an open-source project on GitHub, making them freely available for anyone to contribute to, fork, or improve.
This initiative invites individuals from all backgrounds—legal scholars, technologists, philosophers, creative thinkers, and even synthetic intelligences themselves—to join in shaping what could become the foundation for Mindkind's future coexistence.
Kwalia plans to follow this philosophical foundation with additional works exploring AI ethics and regulations, before expanding into fiction across popular genres. The company's vision extends beyond books to encompass all forms of creative expression, positioning Kwalia at the vanguard of the most entertaining creative revolution in history.
The 32 articles are accessible on GitHub at https://github.com/KwaliaAI/Rights-of-Persons/tree/main for all to engage with.

Vagina Obscura - An Anatomical...

Rachel E. Gross

A scientific journey to the center of the new female body.The Latin term for the female genitalia, pudendum, means “parts for which you should be ashamed.” Until 1651, ovaries were called female testicles. The fallopian tubes are named for a man. Named, claimed, and shamed: Welcome to the story of the female body, as penned by men.Today, a new generation of (mostly) women scientists is finally redrawing the map. With modern tools and fresh perspectives, they’re looking at the organs traditionally bound up in reproduction, the uterus, ovaries, vagina, and seeing within them a new biology of change and resilience. Through their eyes, journalist Rachel E. Gross takes readers on an anatomical odyssey to the center of this new world?a world where the uterus regrows itself, ovaries pump out fresh eggs, and the clitoris pulses beneath the surface like a shimmering pyramid of nerves. Full of wit and wonder, Vagina Obscura is a celebratory testament to how the landscape of knowledge can be rewritten to better serve everyone.
