Synopsis

Dazzling photographs and images from space of our planet's nightlights have captivated public attention for decades. In such images, patterns are immediately seen based on the presence or absence of light: a distinct coastline, bodies of water recognizable by their dark silhouettes, and the faint tendrils of roads and highways emanating from the brilliant blobs of light that are our modern, well-lit cities. For nearly 25 years, satellite images of Earth at night have served as a fundamental research tool, while also stoking public curiosity. These images paint an expansive and revealing picture, showing how humans have illuminated and shaped the planet in profound ways since the invention of the light bulb 140 years ago.

    “I honestly didn’t expect something this simple to have such a profound effect. Ever since I started listening to this, I fall asleep faster, and I stay asleep. My dreams feel calmer too. It’s become a nightly ritual I truly cherish.”

    When the City Stopped - Stories...

    In When the City Stopped, Robert Snyder tells the story of COVID-19 in the words of ordinary New Yorkers, illuminating the fear and uncertainty of life in the early weeks and months, as well as the solidarity that sustained the city. New Yorkers were "alone together," separated by the protective measures of social distancing and the fundamental inequalities of life and work in New York City. Through their personal accounts, we see that while many worked from home, others knowingly exposed themselves to the dangers of the pandemic as they drove buses, ran subways, answered 911 calls, tended to the sick, and made and delivered meals. 
     
     
     
    Snyder builds bridges of knowledge and empathy between those who bore dangerous burdens and those who lived in relative safety. The story is told through the words of health care workers, grocery clerks, transit workers, and community activists who recount their experiences in poems, first-person narratives, and interviews. When the City Stopped preserves for future generations what it was like to be in New York when it was at the center of the pandemic.

    This book contains the following 4 titles: 
    Hooked on Tomorrow - The rapid pace of technological and social change has become the defining characteristic of modern life. We live in an age where innovation is constant, and the desire to keep up with it is almost addictive. From the devices we use daily to the way we communicate, everything is designed to keep us moving forward, often faster than we can comprehend. The term "progress" is no longer just about improvement but about a relentless drive toward the future, regardless of the consequences. 
    Narcissism -  At its core, narcissism is a defense mechanism that helps individuals maintain an exaggerated sense of self-worth. This inflated self-image may stem from deep insecurities or past trauma, and it can be a way for individuals to shield themselves from feelings of inadequacy or vulnerability. Narcissists often rely on external validation—through admiration, praise, and attention—to affirm their worth, which means their sense of self is fragile and dependent on how others perceive them. 
    The Future with Gen Z - Generation Z, often referred to as Gen Z, comprises individuals born roughly between 1997 and 2012. This cohort represents a unique blend of cultural, social, and technological influences, making it distinct from previous generations. Growing up in an era defined by rapid technological advancements and global interconnectedness, Gen Z is the first true generation of digital natives. 
    The Singularity Paradox - Artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved from the realm of science fiction to become an integral part of modern society, influencing nearly every aspect of human life. This transformative technology, once envisioned as futuristic and far-fetched, is now a driving force behind innovations in industries ranging from healthcare to transportation, and it continues to reshape the way we live and work.
