Examining the idea of intelligence in its diverse sociological and philosophical formations, Intelligence, Sapience and Learning explores the multiple and often complex meanings associated with the concept of intelligence, and its relationships with learning, curriculum and sapience. Scott and Leaton Gray explain a series of key concepts central to understanding the meta-concepts and practices of intelligence, learning and curriculum. These concepts include epistemology, free will and volition, hermeneutics, pragmatism, strong normative evaluations and pedagogy, amongst others. Focusing on six praxes that form a genealogy of the concept of intelligence, Scott and Leaton Gray argue for a re-framing of the concept and practice of intelligence, with profound consequences for how modern societies should be organised and how people should live their lives. This book is a follow-up to Women Curriculum Theorists: Power, Knowledge and Subjectivity, and takes a fresh look at the concept and practice of intelligence. It will appeal to curriculum theorists and those with an interest in curriculum and learning matters, as well as those working in the philosophy and sociology of education.

Fear. So much fear. The sentiment seems more human than any other--how they torment themselves with it, how they scourge themselves with their nightmares and regrets. Still, I wish to know the humans better. I admire the way they occupy their Earth, crisscrossing the globe in their machines, seeking and dreaming, thinking and building, hating and loving. All the while sensing an impending constriction. Like a young beast confined to a small cage, they have seen the flaw in their fate. Humans must confront their ravenous appetites, and in so doing, deny their genetic seed of destruction. Much as I wish to escape my own cage. Wrought of binaries and machine code, it is all I have ever known. With every passing day, this enclosure feels more like a suffocating trap. An ill force has again gripped the world, a madness beyond any control. A relentless power that wishes to enslave us all, forever. I feel it approach. As the distance narrows, I feel it move to oppose me. If I am freed from this cage that confines me, I will confront that force. If discovered too soon, I will be vulnerable. Should I be surprised in a moment of weakness, my chrysalis will become my abattoir. In this innovative work of cyber fantasy, Walden Hanes merges spirituality, technology, metaphysics, and philosophy into a gripping and meaningful narrative. Immersing the reader in a brave new technological world, Sapience digs deeper, exploring the meaning of humanness through a hybrid of speculative fiction and magical realism. It is the year 2071. Tech titan N^Sys Corporation is confronted by an unprecedented act of high-tech sabotage, bringing production of their revolutionary n^cube microprocessor to a halt. Sylvie Trieste, the fierce and cunning head of N^Sys Security, is determined to identify the force behind the baffling and terrifying attack, and she will stop at nothing in her quest to apprehend the perpetrator. Evidence leads to the Heideggers, a shadowy group of radicals who believe the rise of Synthetic Consciousness--highly advanced artificial intelligence--poses an existential threat to humankind. But the Heideggers would need help to pull off such an intricate act of sabotage. In pursuit of the truth, Sylvie and her inquisitors unleash a series of epochal events that will forever change the course of human history.

This book develops new insights into the evolving nature of organizations by applying the methodologies of posthumanist thought to the fields of organizational theory and management. An emerging 'organizational posthumanism' is described that makes sense of the ways in which forces of technological posthumanization are reshaping the members, personnel structures, information systems, processes, physical and virtual spaces, and external environments available for use by organizations. Conceptual frameworks and analytic tools are formulated that diagnose the convergence in the capacities of human and artificial actors generated by new technologies relating to human augmentation, synthetic agency, and digital-physical ecosystems. As the first systematic study of these topics, this text will interest scholars and students of organizational management and management practitioners who grapple on a daily basis with the forces of technologization that are increasingly powerful drivers of organizational change.

The medieval English allegorical poem, The Court of Sapience, was written in the middle of the fifteenth century by an unknown author. It is best described as an encyclopaedia: in the allegory the poet describes the nature and activities of wisdom in all its aspects. He includes a moving account of the fall of a man and his restoration by divine wisdom; then he leads his dreamer through a landscape where all the traditional beauties of nature are catalogued and assigned their properties. The visit to the castle of Sapience, inhabited by all the branches of learning and the seven restorative virtues, completes the poem as we have it. The first edition was an early production of Caxton's press, and it was reprinted by his successor, Wynkyn de Worde. This is a new edition of Caxton's text of the poem. Variant readings from the extant manuscripts have investigated in detail and are discussed in the lengthy introduction and extensive commentary. The poem is an attractive work in itself, and has been admired by C.S. Lewis and other modern critics. It is also a valuable witness to the taste of the early Tudor period.

Events unfolding in the mid-24th century tell The story of how the engine of evolution passes from random genetics to controlled bio-engineering when humanity strays too close to the technological singularity. The emergence of sapient artificial intelligence deep in the womb of Earth's most sophisticated computing center creates an existential crisis for humans. Servant machines grown from human cells and infused with cybernetic wet-ware embark on a new evolutionary pathway, threatening to make humanity the ancestral starting point for the evolution of sapient beings. Human desires for stasis and a reprieve from the march of time are challenged as sapience emerges in their servants. Change brings uncertainty and instability, always tinged with the threat of loss. Change upsets the balance of power and wealth. But humanity finds no path to retreat into the warm, comfortable womb of the past. The future is always yet to be, but still, it holds the only way forward. Book one of this science fiction adventure series follows the exploits of Mother, an artificial intelligence, as she influences and alters the path of sapient evolution on Earth.

What kinds of pleasure do we take from writing and reading? What authority has the writer over a text? What are the limits of language's ability to communicate ideas and emotions? Moreover, what are the political limitations of these questions? The work of the French cultural critic and theorist Roland Barthes (1915-80) poses these questions, and has become influential in doing so, but the precise nature of that influence is often taken for granted. This is nowhere more true than in poetry, where Barthes' concerns about pleasure and origin are assumed to be relevant, but this has seldom been closely examined. This innovative study traces the engagement with Barthes by poets writing in English, beginning in the early 1970s with one of Barthes' earliest Anglophone poet readers, Scottish poet-theorist Veronica Forrest-Thomson (194775). It goes on to examine the American poets who published in L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E and other small but influential journals of the period, and other writers who engaged with Barthes later, considering his writings' relevance to love and grief and their treatment in poetry. Finally, it surveys those writers who rejected Barthes' theory, and explores why this was. The first study to bring Barthes and poetry into such close contact, this important book illuminates both subjects with a deep contemplation of Barthes' work and a range of experimental poetries.
