  Trolling Ourselves to Death -...

  Almost forty years ago, Neil Postman argued that television had brought about a fundamental transformation to democracy. By turning entertainment into our supreme ideology, television had recreated public discourse in its image and converted democracy into show business. In Trolling Ourselves to Death, Jason Hannan builds on Postman's classic thesis, arguing that we are now not so much amusing, as trolling ourselves to death. 
   
   
   
  Contrary to the popular view of the troll as an exclusively anonymous online prankster, Hannan asserts that trolls have emerged from the cave, so to speak. Trolls now include politicians, performers, patriots, and protesters. What was once a mysterious phenomenon limited to the darker corners of the Internet has since gone mainstream, eroding our public culture and changing the rules of democratic politics. 
   
   
   
  Synthesizing media ecology with historical materialism, Hannan explores the disturbing rise of political unreason in the form of mass trolling and sheds light on the proliferation of disinformation, conspiracy theory, "cancel culture," and digital violence. Taking inspiration from Robert Brandom's innovative reading of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Trolling Ourselves to Death makes a case for building "a spirit of trust" to curb the epidemic of mass distrust that feeds the plague of political trolling.

  Radiology has revolutionized the medical field, transforming the way diseases and injuries are diagnosed and treated. What began as an accidental discovery of X-rays in 1895 by Wilhelm Roentgen has now evolved into a sophisticated and indispensable branch of medicine. Through the continuous advancement of imaging technologies, radiology has become an essential tool for early detection, precise diagnosis, and targeted treatments, improving patient outcomes and shaping modern healthcare.  
    
  The role of radiology extends far beyond simple imaging. It serves as the foundation for nearly every medical specialty, providing crucial insights into internal structures that were once inaccessible. From detecting fractures and infections to identifying tumors and guiding complex surgeries, radiology has significantly reduced the need for exploratory procedures, minimizing risks for patients. As imaging techniques have improved, so has the ability to diagnose conditions at earlier stages, allowing for more effective interventions and better prognoses.  
    
  Technological advancements in radiology have propelled the field into a new era of precision and efficiency. The introduction of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and nuclear medicine has expanded diagnostic capabilities, enabling physicians to view the human body in unprecedented detail. Digital imaging, artificial intelligence, and automation have further enhanced the accuracy and speed of diagnosis, reducing human error and streamlining workflows. These innovations have also made radiology more accessible, allowing for remote diagnostics and teleradiology, which are especially beneficial in underserved areas.

  "No Way Down is both a gripping read and a clear-eyed investigation of the hubris, politics, and bad luck that brought on one of the worst disasters in modern mountaineering history." —Michael Kodas, author of High Crimes: The Fate of Everest in an Age of Greed 
   
   
   
  "Graham Bowley's No Way Down does a great job of putting you on the mountain. It is a refreshingly unadorned account of the true brutality of climbing K2, where heroes emerge and egos are stripped down, and the only thing achieving immortality is the cold ruthless mountain." —Norman Ollestad, author of Crazy for the Storm 
   
   
   
  In the tradition of Into Thin Air and Touching the Void, No Way Down by New York Times reporter Graham Bowley is the harrowing account of the worst mountain climbing disaster on K2, second to Everest in height . . . but second to no peak in terms of danger. From tragic deaths to unbelievable stories of heroism and survival, No Way Down is an amazing feat of storytelling and adventure writing, and, in the words of explorer and author Sir Ranulph Fiennes, "the closest you can come to being on the summit of K2 on that fateful day."
