Summary

Alternative Protein Sources explores the transformative potential of algae, fungi, and lab-grown meat in reshaping our food systems for a more sustainable future. It addresses the escalating environmental and ethical concerns linked to traditional agriculture by diving into the science and technology behind these novel protein sources. For instance, algae and fungi present unique biological traits that make them suitable for protein production, while cultivated meat offers a way to reduce deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions, and water pollution tied to livestock farming.

 
The book provides a structured analysis, beginning with an overview of the global protein landscape before delving into the biology, cultivation, and processing of each alternative. It acknowledges the complexities of transitioning away from conventional agriculture, yet demonstrates how these alternatives can significantly reduce our environmental footprint and improve food security.

 
Supported by scientific literature and life cycle assessments, the book offers a balanced perspective, making it valuable for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of sustainable food systems.

    The Means of Prediction - How AI...

    AI is inescapable, from its mundane uses online to its increasingly consequential decision-making in courtrooms, job interviews, and wars. 
 
As Maximilian Kasy shows, artificial intelligence, far from being an unstoppable force, is irrevocably shaped by human decisions—choices made to date by the ownership class that steers its development and deployment. Kasy shows that the technology of AI is ultimately not that complex. It is insidious, however, in its capacity to steer results to its owners’ wants and ends. Kasy clearly and accessibly explains the fundamental principles on which AI works, and, in doing so, reveals that the real conflict isn’t between humans and machines, but between those who control the machines and the rest of us. 
 
The Means of Prediction offers a powerful vision of the future of AI: a future not shaped by technology, but by the technology’s owners. Amid a deluge of debates about technical details, new possibilities, and social problems, Kasy cuts to the core issue: Who controls AI’s objectives, and how is this control maintained? The answer lies in what he calls “the means of prediction,” or the essential resources required for building AI systems: data, computing power, expertise, and energy. As Kasy shows, in a world already defined by inequality, one of humanity’s most consequential technologies has been and will be steered by those already in power. 
 
Against those stakes, Kasy offers a framework both for understanding AI’s capabilities and for designing its public control. He makes a compelling case for democratic control over AI objectives as the answer to  
mounting concerns about AI’s risks and harms. The Means of Prediction is a revelation, both an expert undressing of a technology that has masqueraded as more complicated and a compelling call for public oversight of this transformative technology.

    In the Name of Sharks - 1st Edition

    Twenty meters below water, the oceanographer François Sarano came face to face with a five-and-a-half-meter great white shark. Seduced by the gentle elegance of this majestic creature, Sarano experienced a profound sense of affinity with her as they swam side by side, shoulder to shoulder, eye to eye, cutting a single figure through the ocean depths. It was an experience which made him realize the depth of our ignorance of the lives of sharks, leading him to become a passionate advocate for their protection. 
 
 
 
Drawing on the latest scientific research on the biology and ethology of sharks and their exceptional characteristics, this book aims to break through the barrier of prejudice and to pay homage to their true nature. Representing a last vestige of wildness, their populations are nevertheless under threat—like so many species, they have been hunted and exploited by humans. Sarano argues for a change of mindset in which we lose ourselves in the world of the other, so that each living entity, human and non-human, can take their rightful place in the broader global ecosystem.
