Story1
In Out of Touch, Professor of Psychology Michelle Drouin investigates what she calls our intimacy famine, exploring love, belongingness, and fulfillment and considering why relationships carried out on technological platforms may leave us starving for physical connection. Drouin puts it this way: when most of our interactions are through social media, we are taking tiny hits of dopamine rather than the huge shots of oxytocin that an intimate in-person relationship would provide.

Story1
The word "glitch" implies an incidental error, as easy to patch up as it is to identify. But what if racism, sexism, and ableism aren't just bugs in mostly functional machinery—what if they're coded into the system itself? Meredith Broussard demonstrates in More Than a Glitch how neutrality in tech is a myth and why algorithms need to be held accountable. Broussard, a data scientist and one of the few Black female researchers in artificial intelligence, masterfully synthesizes concepts from computer science and sociology.

In the digital labyrinth of the 21st century, a quiet anxiety has become the soundtrack to our lives. We are drowning in notifications, yet starving for meaning. We chase the ghost of productivity, only to end the day exhausted, wondering what we accomplished. As artificial intelligence accelerates, an urgent question echoes in our boardrooms, living rooms, and classrooms: Will you be replaced, imprisoned, or empowered? The Centaur's Edge is not another technical manual or a breathless prediction of dystopia.

The most chilling dystopia is the one we build ourselves. What if George Orwell's 1984 wasn't a warning about the future—but a blueprint that Silicon Valley has been following for decades? In Room 101 Has Wi-Fi, David G. Stone exposes the terrifying reality that we're living in Orwell's dystopia right now. The difference? We're not prisoners—we're willing participants.

Our society has a technology problem. Many want to disconnect from screens but can't help themselves. These days we spend more time online than ever. Some turn to self-help measures to limit their usage, yet repeatedly fail, while parents feel particularly powerless to help their children. Unwired: Gaining Control over Addictive Technologies shows us a way out. Rather than blaming users, the book shatters the illusion that we autonomously choose how to spend our time online. It shifts the moral responsibility and accountability for solutions to corporations.

Algorithms—rules written into software—shape key moments in our lives: from who gets hired or admitted to a top public school, to who should go to jail or receive scarce public benefits. Such decisions are both technical and moral. Today, the logic of high stakes software is rarely open to scrutiny, and central moral questions are often left for the technical experts to answer.

Un estimulante ensayo sobre los cambios que el auge de la tecnología está operando en el ser humano... y los aún por llegar. Descartes creía que los organismos vivos son máquinas biológicas, sometidas como cualquier otra entidad física a las leyes del universo. Los seres humanos, en cambio, seríamos diferentes, poseedores de libre albedrío. Pero Rick Deckard, el protagonista del clásico Blade Runner, tenía serias dificultades para distinguir a un "replicante", un robot biológico, de un ser humano, y así no equivocarse a la hora de "retirar" (eufemismo de matar) a las "entidades electrónicas".

De 20ste eeuw is de eeuw van de massamotorisering. In 1913 begon de eerste massale serieproductie van auto’s in Amerika. Door een efficiënt productieproces lukte het de industrieel Henry Ford om de T-Ford relatief goedkoop op de markt te brengen en daarmee toegankelijk te maken voor de groeiende middenklasse. In Europa kwam de automobilisering van de samenleving pas op gang na 1960. Elk Europees industrieland leverde een eigen bijdrage.

Interrogating the historical currents that have brought us here, Harkness envisages a messier, riskier and less comfortable world than the one into which we’re sliding. Challenging listeners to scrutinise what’s missing from their personalised menus, Technology is Not the Problem encourages us to look afresh at the familiar: not just the technology we use every day, how we relate to the world and those around us.

With the exception of sleep, humans spend more of their lifetimes on work than any other activity. It is central to our economy, our society, and the family. It underpins our finances and our sense of meaning in life. Given the overriding importance of work, we need to recognize a profound transformation in the nature of work that is significantly altering lives: the incoming tidal wave of shadow work. Shadow work includes all the unpaid tasks we do on behalf of businesses and organizations.

The Age of Prediction is about two powerful, and symbiotic, trends: the rapid development and use of artificial intelligence and big data to enhance prediction, as well as the often paradoxical effects of these better predictions on our understanding of risk and the ways we live. Beginning with dramatic advances in quantitative investing and precision medicine, this book explores how predictive technology is quietly reshaping our world in fundamental ways, from crime fighting and warfare to monitoring individual health and elections.
