    Digital Liberty explores the imminent convergence of three pivotal themes: data, artificial intelligence and society’s intricate social graph, and warns of a looming crisis that threatens to challenge the very foundations of liberal democracies. Two distinct paths unfurl – a dystopian trajectory marked by surging inequality, globalized elites, and societal unrest, and a utopian alternative rooted in adapting to this impending crisis. Drawing from the annals of liberal philosophy and guided by the insights of our digital age, the book scrutinizes the profound interplay between technological architecture and the character of societies. 
The book delves into the historical genesis of our contemporary digital milieu, explores the emerging vistas of artificial intelligence, dissects the interplay between technological architecture and political power, and presents a vision for a decentralized future. It demonstrates the transformative potential of decentralised technology in enhancing individual and societal wealth while fostering social cohesion, offering critical insights into the intersection of technology and society, and a guide to shaping a future that aligns with our democratic ideals.

    Essays on human alienation, mode of existence, consumerism, narcissism, and more from “both a psychologist of penetration and a writer of ability” (Chicago Tribune). As Erich Fromm points out, ours is “a life between having and being”—between mere having and healthy being, between destructiveness and creativity, between narcissism and productive self-understanding, between passivity and the joy of positive activity. The alternatives of having and being are basic orientations of our character and determine our behavior. The mostly unpublished and unknown texts featured in The Essential Fromm encapsulate the psychologist’s views on the fulfilling life. To put down roots yet remain free is what the late Erich Fromm called the art of being. It is the secret of happiness.

    Attend to these words gentle soul, herein ye shall find a two-part alchemical discourse concerning the purity and veracity of scientific thought, separating the 'ugly truth' (science conspiracies) from the 'beautiful truth' (the secret art of Alchemy). 
Part One takes aim at the post-modern secular worldview of Scientific Materialism or Scientism, rebuking and revealing the fatal flaws inherent in its core beliefs and cosmology, as well as the various conspiracies and occult shenanigans underlying physics, chemistry and medicine. It is said that 'adventure is an attitude towards discomfort', and to the theorists, statists and sophists take heed, there may be some discomfort ahead, as the pillars upon which you stand will be systematically dismantled and debunked through a combination of wit, fierce logic and timeless wisdom. 
Part Two unveils the ancient Hermetic practice of Alchemy, also known as The Science of Transformation or The Art, a universal system of spiritual knowledge common to all mankind but hidden behind a mantle of domestic counter-intelligence and worthless academic theories. Alchemy is so empowering and enlightening that it is deemed unfit for public programming, and so it must be sought out by curious individuals who initiate themselves on the path. 
Scientism is the troll that guards the gates to the fountain of alchemical truth, and so it must be overcome before one can proceed to higher levels of knowledge. For the humble awakening souls and lovers of truth and wisdom, what awaits you in these pages is a treasure trove of philosophical gold so potent as to transform even the most asinine fool into a sage.
