  It is natural for us to fear artificial intelligence. But does Siri really want to kill us? Perhaps we are falling into the trap of projecting human traits onto the machines we might build. In Evolutionary Intelligence, Neuman offers a surprisingly positive vision in which computational intelligence compensates for the well-recognized limits of human judgment, improves decision making, and actually increases our agency. Neuman takes the listener on an exciting, fast-paced ride, all the while making a convincing case about a revolution in computationally augmented human intelligence. 
   
   
   
  Neuman argues that, just as the wheel made us mobile and machines made us stronger, the migration of artificial intelligence from room-sized computers to laptops to our watches, smart glasses, and even smart contact lenses will transform day-to-day human decision making. If intelligence is the capacity to match means with ends, then augmented intelligence can offer the ability to adapt to changing environments as we face the ultimate challenge of long-term survival. Tapping into a global interest in technology's potential impacts on society, economics, and culture, Evolutionary Intelligence demonstrates that our future depends on our ability to computationally compensate for the limitations of a human cognitive system that has only recently graduated from hunting and gathering.

  An irresistibly moving, funny and urgent memoir about the reality of caring for your parents, when you can barely care for yourself.'Moving and real, as well as splutter-your-tea funny' – Miranda SawyerIt was the kind of phone call we all dread. Your elderly father has been admitted to hospital. Your mum is about to be left at home alone. The answer? Drop everything. Go. Help. The reality? Not so straightforward. Suddenly, you’re a kid again, stranded in the overheated house you grew up in. They need you 24/7, that much is obvious. And you want to help, of course you do. But soon your life starts to unravel almost as quickly as their health.In between bouts of washing, feeding, cooking and fighting there are days that test you, days where everything goes wrong and days where everyone, miraculously rises to the occasion. And in between all of that, you learn how to care. But this time with feeling.Irresistibly funny, unflinching and deeply moving, this is a love letter to family and friends, to carers and to anyone who has ever packed a small bag intent on staying for just a few days. This is a true story of what it really means to be a carer. This is The Reluctant Carer.‘Hilarious, bitter, poignant and profound . . . like an existential soap opera – only with more laughs.‘ - Philip Hoare, author of Leviathan

  This book answers the question:  “Are we the only civilization in the universe who believes there is a God?” 
  In a few years, it could be the end of human beings on Earth. The warning signs are all around us today, but few of us have realized how our lives will be changing as we come closer and closer to the END! Some believe that God will save us.  Others have given up hope. 
  In Shockwave, time waves as conceived by the author and previously dismissed as theoretical abstraction— are starting to prove themselves by hitting the planet with more and more frequency and force.  Most readers will be amazed at the near future technology that is invented in this book by this author that may actually be accomplished in the coming years.  It's a great time to be alive, but it may be even greater in the not-so-far-off future. 
  With each shockwave of Time, events are altered and realities changed.  One reality brings the hero closer to the life he always dreamed about and the other reality brings him further away.  
  The ending is the biggest shock wave of all time because it puts humanity at the center of the universe and you don't want to miss it.
