Providing a post-COP26 perspective on the climate emergency, Hothouse Earth: An Inhabitant's Guide acknowledges that it is now practically impossible to keep this side of the 1.5°C dangerous climate change guardrail. The upshot is that we can no longer dodge the arrival of a disastrous, all-pervasive climate breakdown that will come. Bill McGuire explains the science behind the climate crisis, painting a blunt but authentic picture of the sort of world our children will grow old in, and our grandchildren grow up in, a world that we catch only glimpses of today.

In Amped, people are implanted with a device that makes them capable of superhuman feats. The powerful technology has profound consequences for society, and soon a set of laws is passed that restricts the abilities - and rights - of "amplified" humans. On the day that the Supreme Court passes the first of these laws, 29-year-old Owen Gray joins the ranks of a new persecuted underclass known as "amps." Owen is forced to go on the run, desperate to reach an outpost in Oklahoma where, it is rumored, a group of the most enhanced amps may be about to change the world - or destroy it.

From Silicon Valley boardrooms to rural communes to academic philosophy departments, a seemingly inconceivable idea is being seriously discussed: that the end of humanity’s reign on earth is imminent, and that we should welcome it. Anthropocene antihumanism has been inspired by revulsion at humanity’s destruction of the natural environment, and transhumanism, by contrast, glorifies some of the very things that antihumanism decries—scientific and technological progress, the supremacy of reason.

Just like natural laws, there are spiritual laws with cause and effect.

Dr. Bill Winston; pastor, Bible teacher, and host of national television program Believer's Walk of Faith - broadcast to over 100 million homes - reveals scriptural examples and vital teaching on the importance of the spoken word.

La aparente contradicción que da título a este libro es la premisa central de los breves ensayos que contiene: la certeza de que en cada paso que damos está la huella de un mundo que parece haberse quedado atrás en el tiempo, pero que vive y respira en cada uno de nuestros gestos e ideas. En estos ensayos, Irene Vallejo entabla un diálogo con diversas personalidades de la historia y con la cultura que nos han legado; son al mismo tiempo un derroche de erudición sin pretensiones y un homenaje al sutil arte de contar historias.

Un sincero y revelador análisis de las posibilidades energéticas de nuestro futuro.

In a world with an endless hunger for innovation, why is it so hard to create audacious change? According to thought leader Seth Goldenberg, the answer to this question stems from how we, as a society, view questions themselves.
