Sinossi

Unexpected Turns explores the dynamic shifts redefining politics, science, and law. Long-held political ideologies face radical transformations spurred by social movements, technological advancements, or economic crises. In science, established models are overturned by new discoveries, exemplified by the shift from Newtonian physics to quantum mechanics. The book analyzes the evolving nature of legal interpretation, especially as societal values and Artificial Intelligence challenge existing frameworks.

 
The book argues that these shifts, while often sudden, stem from accumulated pressures. It's structured in three parts, examining each field with historical context and case studies, such as the rise and fall of populist movements. Unexpected Turns aims to provide critical thinking tools, enabling readers to navigate future disruptions.

 
The book stands apart by combining rigorous analysis with accessible language, making complex topics understandable. It draws from diverse sources, including research, government documents, and legal transcripts.

 
The conclusion synthesizes examples, identifying patterns and strategies for navigating uncertainty, while exploring practical implications for policymakers, scientists, and citizens.

Dr. Benjamin T. Mast, Scotty Smith

There is hope in Alzheimer's disease, but it isn't where most people look for it...

For those suffering from early-stage Alzheimer's, for their friends and family, community and church, this book will help you understand the disease itself, how to love and care for those affected by it, and how to see the hope that's greater than it: we may forget, but God always remembers.
With pastoral tenderness and gospel confidence, Dr. Benjamin Mast shares his expertise on the subject and displays the power of the gospel that remains intact even when memory fades. Second Forgetting provides:Up-to-date answers to common questions about the disease and its effect on personal identity and faith.Personal stories of those affected and the loved ones who care for them and what their experiences were like—where they found hope and how they most needed support.Practical suggestions for how the church can come alongside families and those struggling or hurting.
When a person is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, they face great uncertainty, knowing that they can expect to live their remaining years with increasing confusion and progressively greater reliance upon other people to care for them.

This Is What Inequality Looks Like

Teo You Yenn

What is poverty? What is inequality? How are they connected? How are they reproduced? How might they be overcome? Why should we try?The way we frame our questions shapes the way we see solutions. This book does what appears to be a no-brainer task, but one that is missing and important: it asks readers to pose questions in different ways, to shift the vantage point from which they view 'common sense,' and in so doing, to see themselves as part of problems and potential solutions. This is a book about how seeing poverty entails confronting inequality. It is about how acknowledging poverty and inequality leads to uncomfortable revelations about our society and ourselves. And it is about how once we see, we cannot, must not, unsee.This New Edition of This Is What Inequality Looks Like by Teo You Yenn features a new Afterword by the author, and a Foreword by Kwok Kian Woon, Professor of Sociology at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.© 2018 by Teo You Yenn. Published in paper format in Singapore by Ethos Books, recorded by Storyside 2019.

Crystal Fire - The Birth of the...

Michael Riordan, Lillian Hoddeson

On December 16, 1947, two physicists at Bell Laboratories, John Bardeen and Walter Brattain, jabbed two electrodes into a sliver of germanium half an inch long. The electrical power coming out of that piece of germanium was 100 times stronger than what went in. In that moment, the transistor was invented and the information age began. 
 Crystal Fire recounts the story of the transistor team at Bell Labs, led by William Shockley, who shared the Nobel Prize with Bardeen and Brattain. While his colleagues went on to other research, Shockley grew increasingly obsessed with the new gadget. He went on to form the first semiconductor company in what would become Silicon Valley. 
Above all, Crystal Fire is a tale of the human factors in technology: the pride and jealousies coupled with scientific and economic aspirations that led to the creation of modern microelectronics and ignited the greatest technological explosion in history.
