“மனிதர்கள் கடவுளரைக் கண்டுபிடித்தபோது வரலாறு தொடங்கியது. மனிதர்களே கடவுளராக மாறும்போது வரலாறு முடிவுக்கு வந்துவிடும்.” - யுவால் நோவா ஹராரி ஹோமோ சேப்பியன்ஸ் ஹோமோ டியஸாக (லத்தீன் மொழியில் ‘டியஸ்’ என்றால் கடவுள்; ஹோமோ டியஸ் என்றால் மனிதக் கடவுள்) மாறிக் கொண்டிருக்கின்றன இந்நேரத்தில், நமக்கு நாமே எத்தகைய தலைவிதிகளை நிர்ணயித்துக் கொள்ளப் போகிறோம்? பரிணாம வளர்ச்சியின் முதன்மை ஆற்றலான இயற்கைத் தேர்ந்தெடுப்புச் செயல்முறையின் இடத்தைச் செயற்கைத் தேர்ந்தெடுப்புச் செயல்முறை எடுத்துக் கொள்ளும்போது மனிதகுலத்தின் எதிர்காலம் எவ்வாறு மாறும்? நம்முடைய விருப்பங்களையும் அரசியல் தேர்ந்தெடுப்புகளையும் பற்றி நம்மைவிட அதிகமாக கூகுளும் முகநூலும் தெரிந்து வைத்திருக்கும்போது ஜனநாயகத்தின் நிலைமை என்னவாகும்? கணினிகள் மனிதர்களின் வேலைகளைப் பறித்துக் கொண்டு, ‘பயனற்ற வர்க்கம்’ என்ற ஒரு புதிய, மிகப் ப வர்க்கத்தைத் தோற்றுவிக்கும்போது, அரசின் மானிய உதவியோடு வாழும் மக்களை உள்ளடக்கிய நாடுகளுக்கு என்ன நேரும்? நம்முடைய சொந்த அழிவு சக்திகளிடமிருந்து இந்த மென்மையான உலகத்தையும் ஒட்டுமொத்த மனிதகுலத்தையும் நாம் எவ்வாறு பாதுகாப்போம்? நம்மை அதிர வைக்கின்றன இது போன்ற பல கேள்விகளை நம்மை நோக்கி ஏவி, சுவாரசியமாகவும் சிந்தனையைத் தூண்டும் விதத்திலும் அவற்றுக்கு இந்நூலில் விடை காண முயற்சித்துள்ளார் பேராசிரியர் ஹராரி. 21ம் நூற்றாண்டைச் செதுக்கி வடிவமைக்கக்கூடிய இனிய கனவுகளையும் கொடுங்கனவுகளையும் பற்றிய ஒரு வெள்ளோட்டத்தை ஹோமோ டியஸ் எனும் இந்நூல் நமக்குக் கொடுக்கிறது.

On May 19, 1942, a U-boat in the Gulf of Mexico stalked its prey fifty miles from New Orleans. Captained by twenty nine-year-old Iron Cross and King's Cross recipient Erich Wurdemann, the submarine set its sights on the freighter Heredia with sixty-two souls on board. Most aboard were merchant seamen, but there were also a handful of civilians, including the Downs family: Ray and Ina, and their two children, eight-year-old Sonny and eleven-year-old Lucille. Fast asleep in their berths, the Downs family had no idea that two torpedoes were heading their way. When the ship exploded, chaos ensued—and each family member had to find their own path to survival. Including original, unpublished material from Commander Wurdemann’s war diary, the story provides balance and perspective by chronicling the daring mission of the U-boat—and its commander’s decision-making—in the Gulf of Mexico. An inspiring historical narrative, So Close to Home tells the story of the Downs family as they struggle against sharks, hypothermia, drowning, and dehydration in their effort to survive the aftermath of this deadly attack off the American coast.

We are culturally conditioned to think of war and peace in binary terms of strict opposition. Correspondingly, we tend to focus our attention on conflict prevention or conflict resolution. But as Islands of Agreement demonstrates, peace and war are seldom polar totalities but increasingly can and do coexist within the confines of a single scenario. Consequently, Gabriella Blum suggests that even where conflict exists, we regard it as only one dimension of an ongoing, multifaceted interstate relationship. The result is a shift in perspective away from the constricting notions of "prevention" or "resolution" toward a more holistic approach of relationship management. This approach is especially pertinent because conflicts cannot always be prevented or resolved. Through case studies of long-enduring rivalries--India and Pakistan, Greece and Turkey, Israel and Lebanon--Blum shows how international law and politics can function in the battlefield and in everyday life, forming a hybrid international relationship. Through a strategy she calls "islands of agreement," Blum argues that within the most entrenched and bitter struggles, adversaries can carve out limited areas that remain safe or even prosperous amid a tide of war. These havens effectively reduce suffering and loss and allow mutually beneficial exchanges to take place, offering hope for broader accords.

Techno-utopianism is dead: Now is the time to pay attention to the inequality, marginalization, and biases woven into our technological systems. This book sounds an alarm: after decades of being lulled into complacency by narratives of technological utopianism and neutrality, people are waking up to the large-scale consequences of Silicon Valley-led technophilia. This book trains a spotlight on the inequality, marginalization, and biases in our technological systems, showing how they are not just minor bugs to be patched, but part and parcel of ideas that assume technology can fix--and control--society. Contributors Janet Abbate, Ben Allen, Paul N. Edwards, Nathan Ensmenger, Mar Hicks, Halcyon M. Lawrence, Thomas S. Mullaney, Safiya Umoja Noble, Benjamin Peters, Kavita Philip, Sarah T. Roberts, Sreela Sarkar, Corinna Schlombs, Andrea Stanton, Mitali Thakor, Noah Wardrip-Fruin

"There are many people today who see that modern society is heading toward disaster in one form or another, and who moreover recognize technology as the common thread linking the principal dangers that hang over us... The purpose of this book is to show people how to begin thinking in practical, grand-strategic terms about what must be done in order to get our society off the road to destruction that it is now on." --from the Preface In Anti-Tech Revolution: Why and How, Kaczynski argues why the rational prediction and control of the development of society is impossible while expounding on the existence of a process fundamental to technological growth that inevitably leads to disaster: a universal process akin to biological natural selection operating autonomously on all dynamic systems and determining the long-term outcome of all significant social developments. Taking a highly logical, fact-based, and intellectually rigorous approach, Kaczynski seamlessly systematizes a vast breadth of knowledge and elegantly reconciles the social sciences with biology to illustrate how technological growth in and of itself necessarily leads to disastrous disruption of global biological systems. Together with this new understanding of social and biological change, and by way of an extensive examination of the dynamics of social movements, Kaczynski argues why there is only one route available to avoid the disaster that technological growth entails: a revolution against technology and industrial society. Through critical and comprehensive analysis of the principles of social revolutions and by carefully developing an exacting theory of successful revolution, Kaczynski offers a practical, rational, and realistic guide for preventing the fast-approaching technology-induced catastrophe. This new second edition (2020) contains various updates and improvements over the first edition (2016), including two new appendices.

A new approach to ideas about war, from one of the UK's leading strategic thinkers In 1912 Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote a short story about a war fought from underwater submersibles that included the sinking of passenger ships. It was dismissed by the British admirals of the day, not on the basis of technical feasibility, but because sinking civilian ships was not something that any civilised nation would do. The reality of war often contradicts expectations, less because of some fantastic technical or engineering dimension, but more because of some human, political, or moral threshold that we had never imagined would be crossed. As Lawrence Freedman shows, ideas about the causes of war and strategies for its conduct have rich and varied histories which shape predictions about the future. Freedman shows how looking at how the future of war was conceived about in the past (and why this was more often than not wrong) can put into perspective current thinking about future conflicts. The Future of War - which takes us from preparations for the world wars, through the nuclear age and the civil wars which became the focus for debate after the end of the Cold War, to present preoccupations with hybrid and cyber warfare - is filled with fascinating insights from one of the most brilliant military and strategic historians of his generation.
