Download or read book Countdown written by Alan Weisman and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful investigation into the chances for humanity's future from the author of the bestseller The World Without Us. In his bestselling book The World Without Us, Alan Weisman considered how the Earth could heal and even refill empty niches if relieved of humanity's constant pressures. Behind that groundbreaking thought experiment was his hope that we would be inspired to find a way to add humans back to this vision of a restored, healthy planet-only in harmony, not mortal combat, with the rest of nature. But with a million more of us every 4 1/2 days on a planet that's not getting any bigger, and with our exhaust overheating the atmosphere and altering the chemistry of the oceans, prospects for a sustainable human future seem ever more in doubt. For this long awaited follow-up book, Weisman traveled to more than 20 countries to ask what experts agreed were probably the most important questions on Earth -- and also the hardest: How many humans can the planet hold without capsizing? How robust must the Earth's ecosystem be to assure our continued existence? Can we know which other species are essential to our survival? And, how might we actually arrive at a stable, optimum population, and design an economy to allow genuine prosperity without endless growth? Weisman visits an extraordinary range of the world's cultures, religions, nationalities, tribes, and political systems to learn what in their beliefs, histories, liturgies, or current circumstances might suggest that sometimes it's in their own best interest to limit their growth. The result is a landmark work of reporting: devastating, urgent, and, ultimately, deeply hopeful. By vividly detailing the burgeoning effects of our cumulative presence, Countdown reveals what may be the fastest, most acceptable, practical, and affordable way of returning our planet and our presence on it to balance. Weisman again shows that he is one of the most provocative journalists at work today, with a book whose message is so compelling that it will change how we see our lives and our destiny.

Book Synopsis Entertainment Computing - ICEC 2010 by : Hyun Seung Yang
Download or read book Entertainment Computing - ICEC 2010 written by Hyun Seung Yang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-08-26 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 9th International Conference on Entertainment Computing (ICEC 2010) was held in September 2010 in Seoul Korea. After Pittsburgh (2008) and Paris (2009), the event returned to Asia. The conference venue was the COEX Exhibition Hall in one of the most vivid and largest cities of the world. This amazing mega-city was a perfect location for the c- ference. Seoul is on the one hand a metropolitan area with modern industries, univer- ties and great economic power. On the other hand, it is also a place with a very fas- nating historical and cultural background. It bridges the past and the future as well as east and west. Entertainment computing also aims at building bridges from technology to leisure, education, culture and work. Entertainment computing at its core has a strong focus on computer games. However, it is not only about computer games. The last ICEC c- ferences have shown that entertainment computing is a much wider field. For instance in games, technology developed for games can be used for a wide range of appli- tions such as therapy or education. Moreover, entertainment does not necessarily have to be understood as games. Entertainment computing finds its way to stage perfo- ances and all sorts of new interactive installations.
Download or read book The Cube Master written by Sarah Gerdes and published by RPM Publishing. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Readers who know Gerdes mainly as an excellent women’s fiction author will be pleasantly surprised to find she is equally remarkable when it comes to blending the thrills and chills of a thriller with biotechnology and cyber suspense. The standard techno thriller components: a secret government conspiracy, evil masterminds are part of the plot, but Gerdes’s balanced writing (which is an impressive blend of credible action and emotional depth) lifts the techno thriller elements well above the average thriller norm. Complicated technical terms and cyber space detail are plenty, but Gerdes’s skillful use of accessible language while explaining complexities keeps the flow of the narrative smooth. Flawlessly blending high tension with accessible technology, Gerdes has created another winner. YA as well as mature readers of techno thrillers will be rewarded." The Prairie Book Review Apr 7, 2020 Rumors of titanium cubes, containing all the financial and personal records of each American citizen, begin filling the Darknet. Within days, every major criminal circuit begins searching for the missing cubes and the one who knows where they are. They seek Kyle Smith. In his hometown of Ouray, Colorado, Kyle has become a pariah. His lone ally, FBI Agent Brayden Cox, is in federal custody, leaving Kyle alone and vulnerable. Arrested by the NSA, Kyle successfully resists attempts to extract information of the cube’s whereabouts. Upon release and determined to finish the job he started, Kyle retrieves the remaining identity cubes he has hidden within a top-secret government facility near town. The consequences are immediate and unanticipated. An NSA agent is found dead and Kyle’s girlfriend, Billy, volunteers to have a face transplant using data derived from one of the cubes Kyle has in his possession. And when agent Cox is exonerated and assigned to lead a task force focused upon saving the country from financial collapse, Kyle is forced to make a choice: does he work with the wrong people for the right reason, knowing his moral and ethical values will be compromised but lives will be saved, or does he go it alone, relying on his own wits and resources, on the run from criminals as well as the government? Unable to trust those around him, Kyle only knows he must stay alive long enough to bring down the government that created this catastrophic situation and prevent it from happening again.

Book excerpt: An expanding sun, a doomed Earth, and a race against time to save a small fragment of the world’s people. Their only hope lies in an aging observation platform being hastily retrofitted for deep space travel. This vessel is the only existing ship large enough to accommodate the courageous pioneers on their long passage through space. The Wanderers takes you on a journey of more than forty years—from the initial discovery of the coming cataclysm to the space voyage inside a wormhole. The travelers find a planet in a distant solar system that they believe to be their new garden of Eden, replete with not one but thousands of serpents. No one is prepared for what they discover on the surface of Arilias-6, or worse, what discovers them. Greatly influenced by the writings of authors such as Jules Verne and Edgar Rice Burroughs, Vincent Tanner’s tale of the wanderers seamlessly blends action and dialogue into a moving and imaginative adventure.
