À travers l’histoire, notre planète a connu cinq grandes extinctions de masse. Les scientifiques estiment aujourd’hui que nous nous dirigeons vers la sixième et la plus dévastatrice des extinctions depuis la disparition des dinosaures : celle de l’humanité. Le grand responsable de ce fiasco ? L’homme lui-même. Pour saisir l’ampleur de ce moment critique, Elizabeth Kolbert a mené une enquête passionnante sur la grande histoire de la vie terrestre et sur le péril imminent qui la guette. Du Panamá à l’Islande, en passant par Gubbio, la cité fossile italienne, puis l’Amazonie, elle interroge une foule de chercheurs qui enregistrent chaque jour les indices d’une réalité implacable : notre monde agonise. Dans ce document-choc, salué dans le monde entier comme un événement, Elizabeth Kolbert propose un reportage saisissant, récompensé en 2015 d’un prix Pulitzer. Elle démontre que l’on ne peut plus ignorer la crise environnementale qui sévit sous nos yeux. Au risque de disparaître à notre tour.

How humanity came to contemplate its possible extinction. From forecasts of disastrous climate change to prophecies of evil AI superintelligences and the impending perils of genome editing, our species is increasingly concerned with the prospects of its own extinction. With humanity's future on this planet seeming more insecure by the day, in the twenty-first century, existential risk has become the object of a growing field of serious scientific inquiry. But, as Thomas Moynihan shows in X-Risk, this preoccupation is not exclusive to the post-atomic age of global warming and synthetic biology. Our growing concern with human extinction itself has a history. Tracing this untold story, Moynihan revisits the pioneers who first contemplated the possibility of human extinction and stages the historical drama of this momentous discovery. He shows how, far from being a secular reprise of religious prophecies of apocalypse, existential risk is a thoroughly modern idea, made possible by the burgeoning sciences and philosophical tumult of the Enlightenment era. In recollecting how we first came to care for our extinction, Moynihan reveals how today's attempts to measure and mitigate existential threats are the continuation of a project initiated over two centuries ago, which concerns the very vocation of the human as a rational, responsible, and future-oriented being.

Rereading the Fossil Record presents the first-ever historical account of the origin, rise, and importance of paleobiology, from the mid-nineteenth century to the late 1980s. Drawing on a wealth of archival material, David Sepkoski shows how the movement was conceived and promoted by a small but influential group of paleontologists and examines the intellectual, disciplinary, and political dynamics involved in the ascendency of paleobiology. By tracing the role of computer technology, large databases, and quantitative analytical methods in the emergence of paleobiology, this book also offers insight into the growing prominence and centrality of data-driven approaches in recent science.

In recent years, many branches of science have been revolutionized. Completely new disciplines now occupy a central place in modern scientific thought, and Aviezer contributes to the discourse of biblical interpretation by utilizing knowledge obtained from them. This book aims to demonstrate the profound implication of combining the scientific understanding of modern science with Biblical passages. Writing for any curious reader, even those without scientific background, Aviezer explains complicated scientific topics in a simple manner, allowing nearly anyone to examine how quantum theory, the butterfly effect, string theory and others can possibly enrich the interpretation of scriptural passages.
