Book excerpt: Another Knight in Tarnished Armor? Now a widow, artist Kit Fielding was "finished with men." Her experience with her unfaithful, irresponsible husband, Paul, had left her content to live a quiet life alone. She felt no desire to risk love or marriage again—ever. That was why Brook disturbed her from the moment they met. He was too attractive…and too sure of himself, too ready to take charge. But he wasn't like her husband—not at all—as Kit discovered when a work assignment brought them together. Two months in the Caribbean with Brook could change her mind about men. But could it change his? Could it make him forget the faithless wife who'd betrayed him—just as Paul had betrayed Kit?

Book excerpt: Animated by the stories of some of the last century's most charismatic and conniving artists, writers, and businessmen, Men of Tomorrow brilliantly demonstrates how the creators of the superheroes gained their cultural power and established a crucial place in the modern imagination. "This history of the birth of superhero comics highlights three pivotal figures. The story begins early in the last century, on the Lower East Side, where Harry Donenfeld rises from the streets to become the king of the 'smooshes'-soft-core magazines with titles like French Humor and Hot Tales. Later, two high school friends in Cleveland, Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel, become avid fans of 'scientifiction,' the new kind of literature promoted by their favorite pulp magazines. The disparate worlds of the wise guy and the geeks collide in 1938, and the result is Action Comics #1, the debut of Superman. For Donenfeld, the comics were a way to sidestep the censors. For Shuster and Siegel, they were both a calling and an eventual source of misery: the pair waged a lifelong campaign for credit and appropriate compensation." -The New Yorker
Book Synopsis The Man Who Saw Tomorrow by : Lillian Hoddeson
Download or read book The Man Who Saw Tomorrow written by Lillian Hoddeson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2024-07-02 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first full-length biography of a brilliant, self-taught inventor whose innovations in information and energy technology continue to shape our world. The Economist called Stanford R. Ovshinsky (1922–2012) “the Edison of our age,” but this apt comparison doesn't capture the full range of his achievements. As an independent, self-educated inventor, Ovshinsky not only created many important devices but also made fundamental discoveries in materials science. This book offers the first full-length biography of a visionary whose energy and information innovations continue to fuel our post-industrial economy. In The Man Who Saw Tomorrow, Lillian Hoddeson and Peter Garrett tell the story of an unconventional genius with no formal education beyond high school who invented, among other things, the rechargeable nickel metal hydride batteries that have powered everything from portable electronics to hybrid cars, a system for mass-producing affordable thin-film solar panels, and rewritable CDs and DVDs. His most important discovery, the Ovshinsky effect, led to a paradigm shift in condensed matter physics and yielded phase-change memory, which is now enabling new advances in microelectronics. A son of the working class who began as a machinist and toolmaker, Ovshinsky focused his work on finding solutions to urgent social problems, and to pursue those goals, he founded Energy Conversion Devices, a unique research and development lab. At the end of his life, battered by personal and professional losses, Ovshinsky nevertheless kept working to combat global warming by making solar energy “cheaper than coal”—another of his many visions of a better tomorrow.
Download or read book Man of Tomorrow written by Jim Newton and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visionary. Iconoclast. Political Survivor. "A powerful and entertaining look" (Governor Gavin Newsom) at the extraordinary life and political career of Governor Jerry Brown. Jerry Brown is no ordinary politician. Like his state, he is eclectic, brilliant, unpredictable and sometimes weird. And, as with so much that California invents and exports, Brown's life story reveals a great deal about this country. With the exclusive cooperation of Governor Brown himself, Jim Newton has written the definitive account of Jerry Brown's life. The son of Pat Brown, who served as governor of California through the 1960s, Jerry would extend and also radically alter the legacy of his father through his own service in the governor's mansion. As governor, first in the 1970s and then again, 28 years later in his remarkable return to power, Jerry Brown would propound an alternative menu of American values: the restoration of the California economy while balancing the state budget, leadership in the international campaign to combat climate change and the aggressive defense of California's immigrants, no matter by which route they arrived. It was a blend of compassion, far-sightedness and pragmatism that the nation would be wise to consider. The story of Jerry Brown's life is in many ways the story of California and how it became the largest economy in the United States. Man of Tomorrow traces the blueprint of Jerry Brown's off beat risk-taking: equal parts fiscal conservatism and social progressivism. Jim Newton also reveals another side of Jerry Brown, the once-promising presidential candidate whose defeat on the national stage did nothing to diminish the scale of his political, intellectual and spiritual ambitions. To the same degree that California represents the future of America, Jim Newton's account of Jerry Brown's life offers a new way of understanding how politics works today and how it could work in the future.

Book Synopsis Man, Machines and Tomorrow by : M. W. Thring
Download or read book Man, Machines and Tomorrow written by M. W. Thring and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1973, Man, Machines and Tomorrow investigates the ways in which technologists themselves can solve the problems which the technological society has brought upon itself. Professor Thring is hopeful for the future of mankind. In this book he is concerned to establish the possibility of a real machine served utopia in which all men and women are free to find their self-fulfillment to the limit of their possibilities. The year 2000 was proposed as a crucial date, when overpopulation and limited resources will force society to rethink its very foundations. Professor Thring suggests creation of a ‘Creative Society’ and demonstrates the ways in which engineers would be able to apply technology in the service of that society. He describes the machines-in communications, medicine, education, food production-that could be invented and argues that it is the engineer who must devise these machines to be the slaves of mankind, in order to give a maximum quality of life to every individual. In the current world where we are grappling with questions of climate change, pandemic, ethical use of AI and machine learning, this book is an important historical reference to understand the larger questions about the future of technology and mankind.

With nearly sixty percent of the voting population behind him, he arrives in Boston both for the final presidential debate of the campaign and to visit his son. But as the actions and the choices of his son abruptly become the focus of attention across the country, John finds his campaign in the midst of a crisis and his lead in the polls begins to shrink more and more with each passing day. In order to win the election, John will have to take control of the situation, but can he do it without damaging the bond that he shares with his family? John must choose to either interfere with the delicate balance in the newfound happiness of his son's life, or do something that would seem impossible: convince the public to accept his son just as he has. John is a father that would sacrifice anything he has for his son, but will it cost him the election?
Book Synopsis Religion of Tomorrow by : John Elof Boodin
Download or read book Religion of Tomorrow written by John Elof Boodin and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-04-11 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1943 amidst the distractions of World War II, Religion of Tomorrow never received the proper recognition it deserved. Now some eighty years later, poet-philosopher John Elof Boodin’s manifesto for a popular Christian renaissance is more necessary than ever. With an informative historical/biographical introduction and more than one hundred textual notes, editor Michael A. Flannery presents Boodin’s spiritual roadmap for a new audience to listen and follow the divine lure towards greater creativity and fulfillment—to “learn by living.” Boodin invites readers to embark upon their own Christian journeys with the poets and sages of the ages at their side. Here Boodin becomes the informed travel guide—well-equipped with the knowledge of history, the tools of science, the sensibilities of a poet, and the empathy of a fellow traveler to be encouraged as was Joshua to “be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
