Book excerpt: Since the appearance of E. W. Farnsworth's 'DarkFire at the Edge of Time' in early 2016, the importance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has increased exponentially. From AI to robotics, 2016 was long prophesied as the year when the machines would start "taking over"", Now it is happening, according to Vivek Wadhwa of Crunch Network. Yet AIs and robots have come as our friends and helpmeets to improve our lives. They will become, as Lincoln wrote, the "better angels of our nature." From the 'Sarah Tetralogy' through the journey of Spaceship Arcturus conveying brilliant humans, artificial intelligences and avatars beyond the end of the universe, to 'Renaissance', which recounts the spaceship's successful return to instantiate a new Eden which replaces the black crisp that humans have made of Earth, these stories continue in the vein of DarkFire and his friend, the inimitable Loc Phuket. Science Fiction to some, perhaps, yet, day by day, increasingly part of our current events.

Book excerpt: E. W. Farnsworth's DarkFire Warrior follows the pattern of the visionary science fiction tales and poems he established in DarkFire and DarkFire Continuum. Humans and intelligent machines cannot coexist peacefully on Earth, so a brave few of each kind escape. The epic Voyage of the Spaceship Arcturus is the enfolding structure for Farnsworth's creations. As Earth is destroyed by inevitable nuclear war, Arcturus slips through the evil space empire to discover that the edge of the universe is the gateway to a new, pristine realm. Meanwhile, the voyagers evolve into symbiotic organisms worthy of inhabiting the New Eden waiting for them at the end of their trek. A surprise reunion of The Avatar and The Dweeb rounds out the spaceship's journey, which starts where it began, but with everything changed. In this third volume, Farnsworth explores the logical backgrounds of the major characters and the execution of their plan for escaping Earth.

Book excerpt: This collection of literary, sometimes melancholy, tales by E. W. Farnsworth invites thoughtful readers to dive right in anywhere for a few minutes or an hour on a subway ride or before bed. Novella 'River Tales' outlines the recruitment of a female CIA agent. 'The Blood Closet' is about a headmistress's perplexity dealing with gender issues in a middle school. Each work of flash fiction is thought-provoking. Some stories are profound and most will reward re-reading - closely; a few link by characters and actions to other works by the author. E. W. Farnsworth lives and writes in Gilbert, Arizona, USA. With over two-hundred and fifty short stories published online and in print, he renders real-world experience in fiction with his own cosmos. One critic sincerely hoped that the incidents in Farnsworth's fiction have no counterparts in real life. In fact, they all are drawn to life. In that sense, his fiction is troubling, intentionally so.

Download or read book Odd Angles on the 1950s written by E W Farnsworth and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-02-27 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's intent in presenting these ten stories early in 2017 is to remind Americans and right-leaning Europeans that there is a cost to attempting to return to a bygone era which was never really a paradise. The stories deal with themes such as the degraded position of women before the advent of birth-control pills; education in an anti-intellectual country; ill-starred youths and ghosts in the Japanese-American community of Los Angeles; ghostly and grisly Chinese traditions; the dark underbelly of the American musical scenes in the 1950s and 20-Naughts. 'The Joys of Trumpery' and 'The Last Trump' provide a caricature vision of the deepest fears of anti-Trump liberals who resent and even resist the Presidency of Donald Trump. The author is decidedly not 'anti-Trump'. Nevertheless, having lived through the 1950s without being lobotomized, imprisoned, wounded in battle or strapped in an electric chair, he is grateful for benefits provided by many who, deservedly or not, suffered and are forgotten.

Download or read book The Origins of the Western Legal Tradition written by Ellen Goodman and published by Federation Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellen Goodman uses extensive extracts from original writings to highlight the main themes of the Western legal tradition. The strength of the book is its clear focus on the heart of the tradition: constitutionalism, representative institutions and rule by law. Goodman links Christianity to its origins in Greek philosophy and Judaism. She delves into the position of the Roman Church as the tenuous, Dark Ages conduit. Feudalism lives and dies and the common law and parliament emerge. The author accurately and vividly charts the main currents, avoiding both the shoals and the myriad tributaries, and so enables readers to have a clearer and deeper understanding of our present legal system.
