Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature

Thomas Henry Huxley

Casa editrice: DigiCat

Sinossi

In "Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature," Thomas Henry Huxley employs a rigorous scientific approach to explore humanity's evolutionary roots. Written during the late Victorian era—a time of burgeoning scientific discovery—Huxley's work synthesizes paleontological evidence, anatomical observations, and comparative biology to argue that humans are part of the natural continuum of life. His literary style is clear and persuasive, characterized by logical reasoning and a commitment to empirical evidence, which reflects the spirit of inquiry prevalent in the emerging field of evolutionary biology during this period. Huxley, often dubbed 'Darwin's Bulldog' for his advocacy of Charles Darwin's theories, was a biologist and anthropologist who played a pivotal role in popularizing evolutionary thought. His background in comparative anatomy and his own struggles against the prevailing dogmatic views of his time likely inspired him to confront societal norms regarding humanity's place in the natural order. Huxley's intellect combined with his commitment to scientific truth positions him as a crucial figure in the history of science. This book is essential for anyone interested in the intersections of science, philosophy, and human identity. Huxley's insights resonate today, urging readers to reflect on the implications of evolution for understanding our own nature. It is a compelling read for scholars, students, and curious minds alike.

Cobalt - Cradle of the Demon...

Charlie Angus

The world is desperate for cobalt. It drives the proliferation of digital and clean technologies. But this "demon metal" has a horrific present and a troubled history. 
 
 
 
The modern search for cobalt has brought investors back to a small town in Northern Canada, a place called Cobalt. Like the demon metal, this town has a dark and turbulent history. 
 
 
 
The tale of the early-twentieth-century mining rush at Cobalt has been told as a settle's adventure, but Indigenous people had already been trading in metals from the region for two thousand years. And the events that happened here—the theft of Indigenous lands, the exploitation of a multicultural workforce, and the destruction of the natural environment—established a template for resource extraction that has been exported around the world. 
 
  
 
Charlie Angus reframes the complex and intersectional history of Cobalt within a broader international frame—from the conquistadores to the Western gold rush to the struggles in the Democratic Republic of Congo today. He demonstrates how Cobalt set Canada on its path to become the world's dominant mining superpower.

Gaia Wakes - Earth's Emergent...

Topher McDougal

Gaia Wakes presents a compelling new framework for understanding the past, present, and future of our planet. Starting from a strong foundation in economics and drawing on a vast range of multidisciplinary scholarship, Topher McDougal explores the possibility of a fifth transition towards an upgraded Earth: the development of a technologically enabled planetary brain capable of coordinating ecological functions and peering far into the future and universe. 
Gaia Wakes endows the emergence of a planetary brain with both a plausible economic mechanism and a historical context in which that mechanism has operated over the course of 3.8 billion years of life on Earth. It argues that the global environmental devastation we are beginning to experience and rapid recent advancements in artificial intelligence may jointly be part of a naturally recurring cycle of “upgrades” that has driven the increasing complexity of life on Earth. 
Ambitious and provocative, the author combines economics with a breathtaking range of subjects including futurism, technology, philosophy, ecology and planetary and environmental sciences to offer new insights into questions that have long challenged us about the relationship between humankind and the world in which we live. Gaia Wakes stands out as a bold and original perspective on the future of our planet.
