  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.

  The story of how a boy came to be infected with blood borne viruses, and in spite of multiple death sentences, lived to become the world's first ever LGBTQ+ Ambassador for Haemophilia.
  'Faced daily with my own mortality, I chose to live fabulously—each of my fifty-five years has been full of love, laughter, adventure… and feather boas.'
  Mark Ward is the founder of Haemosexual—an online support and information resource championing equality, education and better healthcare for everyone with a bleeding disorder, no matter what their sexual orientation. Mark's battle to secure a public enquiry into the Infected Blood Scandal—which is finally due to report in May—has led him to places he never expected, and to meet people he never dreamt of.
  'Mark is a survivor, literally, of the HIV visited upon him through contaminated blood, but rather than merely revelling in the simple fact of life, he has heroically dedicated himself to ensuring life remains possible for others.'—Sam Stein KC
  This forthright (and fabulous) memoir, recounts the journey of an unlikely lad from Letchworth who grows up to be a renowned and respected rights campaigner. With foreword by Sam Stein KC.
  'This is a remarkable book—brave, funny and honest. Ward is a gifted writer with a profound story to tell and he does it beautifully.' — Peter Moffatt
  'This is a story of one of the worst cover ups of our time, and the author's part in the fight to expose it, but it is also the story of a human being who managed to live a life filled with joy despite the mistreatment he endured. An inspirational tale.' — Elkan Abrahamson, Director of Covid Enquiry Department, Jackson Lees Law Group
  'This is a profound and important book from a courageous individual who has lived through the darkest episode of medical history, and contributed to the resolution for the thousands impacted in the UK' — Brian O'Mahony, CEO of Irish Haemophilia Society

  Today you are getting a deal of two books: 
  Biology - Biology is the study of life and living organisms, encompassing their structure, function, growth, evolution, and interactions with their environment. This diverse field seeks to answer fundamental questions about life, such as how organisms survive, reproduce, and evolve over time. Understanding biology is crucial not only for gaining knowledge about the natural world but also for addressing issues in medicine, agriculture, environmental science, and biotechnology. At its core, biology explores the characteristics of life, which include organization, metabolism, homeostasis, growth, reproduction, response to stimuli, and adaptation. All living organisms share these characteristics, though they may express them in various ways. From the microscopic bacteria that live in the soil to the complex human body, biological processes are at work, and each organism plays a part in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. 
  Zoology - Zoology is the scientific study of animals, their biology, behavior, and interactions with their environment. As one of the core branches of biology, zoology seeks to understand the vast diversity of animal life on Earth, ranging from the simplest invertebrates to the most complex mammals. It encompasses a wide array of topics, including animal anatomy, physiology, behavior, ecology, and evolution, offering insights into the very essence of life itself. The importance of studying zoology is far-reaching. Animals are not only a key part of the planet’s biodiversity but also play vital roles in ecosystems that support life on Earth. They are integral to food webs, pollination, seed dispersal, and maintaining the balance of natural systems. By understanding animals, zoologists can contribute to the conservation and preservation of species and habitats, ensuring the survival of both the creatures themselves and the ecosystems they support.
