Sinopse

"Everyday Myths Debunked" tackles the pervasive problem of misinformation by dismantling commonly held beliefs across health, technology, and daily habits. It emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and evidence-based information in navigating an era where discerning fact from fiction can be challenging. For example, the book challenges the idea that we only use 10% of our brains, revealing this concept as a complete myth.

 
The book approaches each myth by exploring its origins, examining the evidence (or lack thereof), and providing clear explanations rooted in science. It addresses myths related to health, such as the efficacy of detox diets, then moves into technology, examining smartphone security myths, and finally delves into daily habits, like sleep hygiene. This progression provides a comprehensive understanding of why these myths persist and how to effectively address them.

 
What makes this book valuable is its commitment to presenting complex information in an accessible manner, avoiding jargon and maintaining an engaging tone. It arms readers with the knowledge to make informed decisions and critically evaluate the information they encounter daily, promoting scientific literacy and cognitive biases awareness.

The Planet You Inherit - Letters...

Larry L. Rasmussen

For the first time ever, love letters consciously written by elders of one geologic epoch to the young of another. 
 
 
 
Our children's and grandchildren's generation will face a different world, one affected by climate instability, mass uncertainty, and breathtaking extinction. In fact, the next generation will face the reality that human activity is changing the planet from one geological epoch to another. 
 
 
 
From this vantage point—two generations across two geological epochs facing a fundamentally changing planet—Larry Rasmussen writes to his grandchildren. As a grandfather invested in a green earth and climate justice as well as a scholar of faith-based earth ethics, Rasmussen bridges this gap between generations to write to the future about climate change, global citizenship, democracy, and legacy. In topics ranging from "A Viable Way of Life" and "Democracy" to "Where We've Come From" and "Who We Are Now," Rasmussen explores the large questions of justice, meaning, and faith, encouraging us to speak to and look to the future generation and their future world.

Neuralink Decoded - What Happens...

Samantha Blake

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
What if your thoughts could send a text, learn a language, or relive a memory in perfect detail—all without lifting a finger?
Neuralink Decoded is a mind-expanding journey into the next era of human evolution, where science fiction meets real-world innovation. Written in Samantha Blake’s signature style—clear, compelling, and emotionally gripping—this book takes readers beyond the headlines and hype to explore how brain-computer interfaces are reshaping medicine, identity, work, and the future of the human race.
This isn’t just about Elon Musk or a coin-sized chip. It’s about what comes after. What happens when the brain becomes programmable? When your mind can connect directly to the internet—or to another human?
From the early roots of Neuralink’s experimental technology to the awe-inspiring possibilities of enhanced cognition, digital telepathy, and memory backups, this book offers a front-row seat to a revolution that will challenge everything we know about thought, privacy, and being alive.
Through human stories, real science, and bold predictions, Neuralink Decoded explores how this breakthrough could help the paralyzed walk again, treat disorders like Parkinson’s and depression, and eventually allow us to transcend biology altogether. But it also wrestles with the big questions: Who owns your thoughts? Can consciousness be hacked? And what does it mean to stay human in a world where machines may understand your mind better than you do?
Whether you're a curious reader, a tech enthusiast, or someone wondering how to prepare for a future that’s arriving faster than expected, this book is your roadmap.
This is not just the story of a chip. It’s the story of us—and what we’re about to become.
