Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one alive can remember seeing the sun, the sky or the stars. For centuries they've been hidden by an oily blanket of cloud that never breaks or disperses. This is the city of Luxor. When the oceans flooded and fossil fuels ran out, Luxor rose out of the chaos, becoming the most powerful city in the world - thanks to its industries, fuelled by the fat of animals. As the fumes from burning tallow spread outward, so did Luxor's influence ... Loki Blake has lived his whole life in Luxor and he knows nothing else. But now he's going to a place beyond the clouds -- a place where the sunshine will dazzle his eyes and the stars will scramble his brain. He's traveling to the faraway colony of Trasmundo to search for exotic and perhaps mythical animals, trying to save them from extinction before the smoke of Luxor's industry spreads further. But there are people who badly want Loki to fail, and they're prepared to kill to make sure he does. Before he knows it, Loki is on the run in the cloudforests and marshes of Gondwana, his survival dependent on Mera Ness, his frustrating and elusive guide. He doesn't know who to trust or whether he'll make it home: all he knows is that he hasn't been told the full story ...

Download or read book Our Tragic Universe written by Scarlett Thomas and published by HMH. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “delightfully whimsical novel riffs on the premise that ordinary lives stubbornly resist the tidy order that a fiction narrative might impose on them” (Publishers Weekly). Can a story save your life? Meg Carpenter is broke. Her novel is years overdue. Her cell phone is out of minutes. And her moody boyfriend’s only contribution to the household is his sour attitude. So she jumps at the chance to review a pseudoscientific book that promises life everlasting. But who wants to live forever? Consulting cosmology and physics, tarot cards, koans (and riddles and jokes), new-age theories of everything, narrative theory, Nietzsche, Baudrillard, and knitting patterns, Meg wends her way through Our Tragic Universe, asking this and many other questions. Does she believe in fairies? In magic? Is she a superbeing? Is she living a storyless story? And what’s the connection between her off-hand suggestion to push a car into a river, a ship in a bottle, a mysterious beast loose on the moor, and the controversial author of The Science of Living Forever? Smart, entrancing, and boiling over with Thomas’s trademark big ideas, Our Tragic Universe is a book about how relationships are created and destroyed, how we can rewrite our futures (if not our histories), and how stories just might save our lives.

Book excerpt: At the instigation of the curators Katerina Gregos and Elena Sorokina, the question of human rights is not only examined from a philosophical and ethical point of view, but is also linked to the work of seventy international contemporary artists. Their work will be shown on nine different locations in the inner city of Mechelen in the fall of 2012. In the catalogue the selected works constitute a corpus, which clearly shows to what extent the question of human rights is also a recurrent theme within the field of art. However, the publication on this particularly ambitious project aims to be more than just an exhibition catalogue. The current situation of human rights is charted in the first part on the basis of essays and philosophical reflections. This is followed by contributions of several international human rights activists. Gripping testimonies and historical reconstructions alternate with socio-political analyses or new insights.

Book excerpt: In the early part of the 21st century a new religion begins to recruit followers, men and women left cold by modern society who flock to The Spirit of Nagasaki. This movement provides them with support and a God-given meaning to their days, but behind the welcoming embrace a trio of cult leaders have their own ideas, about exploiting lost souls and realising their ambitions, causing death and havoc when everything they have built comes crashing down.Equal parts drama, mystery and thriller, the story of the rise and fall of a religious cult is told in flashback through the major players as events degenerate towards murderous destruction. Meanwhile Special Investigator Joe Sweeney attempts to pick up the pieces, pulling together evidence and tracking down suspects through the aftermath of the crimes. A compelling and timely study of evil's slow progress, The Spirit Of Nagasaki touches on the darkest of our collective fears on its way to a truly devastating climax.

Download or read book Exile Nation written by Charles Shaw and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An "extraordinary" work of spiritual journalism that grapples with the themes of drugs, prisons, politics, and spirituality through Shaw’s personal story (Chicago Tribune), originally published as a series on Reality Sandwich and The Huffington Post. In 2005, Shaw was arrested in Chicago for possession of MDMA and was sent to prison for one year. Shaw not only looks at the current prison system and its many destructive flaws, but also at how American culture regards criminals and those who live outside of society. He begins his story at Chicago’s Cook County Jail, and uses its sprawling, highly corrupt infrastructure to build upon his overarching argument. This is an insider’s look at the forgotten or excluded segments of our society, the disenfranchised lifestyles and subcultures existing in what Shaw calls the “exile nation.” They are those who lost some or all of their ability to participate in the full opportunities of society because of an arrest or conviction for a non-violent, drug-related, or “moral offense,” those who cannot participate in the credit economy, and those with lifestyle choices that involve radical politics and sexuality, cognitive liberty, and unorthodox spiritual and healing practices. Together they make up the new “evolutionary counterculture” of the most significant epoch in human history.

Download or read book Growing Up Red written by Tim Schilke and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up in suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin, author Tim Schilke knew that his concerns about some generally accepted suburban truths were often left unanswered. He later learned that a carefully crafted Red-suburban version of reality isolated him from nearly everything real. "Red truth" was a strange morph of God, Patriotism, and Republicans. When this uniquely Red-suburban mentality played a role in winning President George W. Bush a second term in late 2004, Schilke began an investigation into the driving factors behind his Red upbringing, which still persist and thrive today in suburban and rural America. From carefully-guarded moral relativism, to the Army's questionable recruiting techniques; from Major League Baseball's tainted home run records, to the myth of the Ownership Society; Schilke maps these current events back into the perspective of his Red upbringing. Why does Red-suburban middle-America consistently vote against its own interests in election after election? Growing Up Red attempts to show that, in Red America, it is simply the patriotic thing to do. In Red America, raw Faith trumps Knowledge. Carefully-tweaked irrational fear drives never-ending consumption. A Republican President marches arm-in-arm with God down Main Street every Fourth of July. What happens when actual reality starts to bleed through the carefully-protected fences of suburbia? Find out in Growing Up Red.

Book excerpt: After preventing conservative MP Victor Palgrave from engineering a human mind-controlled teenage army, Joe Dyson and Ani Lee, operatives for a secret youth division of British Intelligence, have probably earned a rest. But there’s no time to be lax with bizarre new developments popping up across the UK and the world. While busting a group that’s pressing teen runaways into slave labor building tech, Joe discovers a computer component not yet out on the market, linked to a very popular, but highly secretive gaming company based in California. Meanwhile, skilled hacker Ani works her way into a vigilante hacking ring intent on using viral social media to bring the truth to the world and bring world governments to their knees. They’re method: rewriting reality, virtually, so that the world never knows the difference. As Ani's and Joe’s missions draw closer together, they realize that they have been corralled into a real-life video game—one where the levels are constantly being rewritten, and the stakes are constantly shifting. What happens when AI evolves to the point where it has a mind of its own? When the computer threatens to turn on its master? Joe, Ani, and the world are about to find out.

Download or read book Design Works written by Heather M. A. Fraser and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design Works is a second-edition collection of best practices that serves as a leader’s guide to driving innovation within the enterprise through the strategic and design-inspired practice of Business Design. It is well recognized that enterprise success requires ongoing innovation to create new value and sustain success. That requires a disciplined integration of exploration, sound strategic decision-making and leadership at all levels of the enterprise. While the resurgence of design thinking has proven to catalyze fresh thinking, it can fall short if not fully integrated with the business strategy of the enterprise, mindful stakeholder engagement and the evolution of enterprise management systems. This book builds on the fundamental principles of the first edition of Design Works: How to Tackle Your Toughest Innovation Challenges through Business Design. It expands on how to effectively navigate progress through strategy integration, effective stakeholder engagement and blending design-inspired practices with analytics to build a compelling business case for investment in value-creating efforts. Like the first edition, it includes valuable frameworks, inspiring stories and practical tools to drive growth and innovation in any type of organization. Clear principles for leading innovation draw from others’ experience to help make the most of enterprise talent and resources. New methodologies hone and build on the repertoire of tools in the first edition. New stories provide insights into how a variety of organizations have leveraged the principles and practices of Business Design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Houston, we have a problem! Spaceship Earth is in trouble, but most of those traveling first class dont believe there is a problem. And the other passengers are either oblivious, confused, or at odds with one another about what the problem actually is and what, if anything, can be done about it. The dominant species on planet Earth, Homo sapiens, continues to eliminate other species and to gravely, perhaps irreversibly, damage the natural environment. There are also too many humans who prey on others of their own species. There are many concerned individuals and institutions, such as Thomas Piketty, Chrystia Freeland, and Oxfam, who have written about the problem from different perspectives and providing different views, contributing to my observations and insights. What has been conspicuous in its absence is a feasible and desirable solution to the apparently intractable predicament in which the global community finds itself. That is my unique contribution with this book. My solution is comprehensive, conceived for the new millennium, redefining money in a fundamentally new financial system, fostering a collaborative economic doctrine that optimises the production of utility and a truly democratic political system that will provide good governance in the best interest of the peopleat last. I also provide a peaceful, civilised road map for getting there within the laws of the day. My aim is to prevent the destructive revolution that may have already begun. My suggestion is that we begin in the USA. The war on poverty will unite the United States as never before, across all the lines and labels that currently divides it. This war to end all wars will soon extend globally. America will again lead the world, but this time without moral ambiguity, with total moral clarity.
