Download or read book Travels with Herodotus written by Ryszard Kapuscinski and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-11-11 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the renowned journalist comes this intimate account of his years in the field, traveling for the first time beyond the Iron Curtain to India, China, Ethiopia, and other exotic locales. In the 1950s, Ryszard Kapuscinski finished university in Poland and became a foreign correspondent, hoping to go abroad – perhaps to Czechoslovakia. Instead, he was sent to India – the first stop on a decades-long tour of the world that took Kapuscinski from Iran to El Salvador, from Angola to Armenia. Revisiting his memories of traveling the globe with a copy of Herodotus' Histories in tow, Kapuscinski describes his awakening to the intricacies and idiosyncrasies of new environments, and how the words of the Greek historiographer helped shape his own view of an increasingly globalized world. Written with supreme eloquence and a constant eye to the global undercurrents that have shaped the last half-century, Travels with Herodotus is an exceptional chronicle of one man's journey across continents.
Download or read book La reincarnazione e la legge del Karma written by W. W. Atkinson and published by Venexia Editrice. This book was released on 2013-06-14 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’anima sopravvive alla morte? Le nostre esistenze si susseguono nel tempo? Possiamo accedere al sapere e alle memorie acquisite nelle vite precedenti? L’autore risponde a queste e altre domande, spiegando come la reincarnazione sia un principio fondamentale dell’esistenza umana. Egli traccia l’evoluzione delle teorie riguardo alle rinascite passando dal pensiero egizio sul percorso dell’anima, agli insegnamenti di Platone sullo spirito, fino a giungere alle teorie delle scuole moderne di esoterismo sulla vita eterna. Con argomenti e prove che sostengono l’idea che l’anima percorra un lungo viaggio evolutivo, Atkinson ci offre una prospettiva straordinaria su un argomento che ha da sempre affascinato l’umanità, offrendo come sempre speranza e quel pensiero positivo presente in tutti i suoi scritti e insegnamenti.

Book excerpt: “This gonzo-journalistic exploration of the Silicon Valley techno-utopians’ pursuit of escaping mortality is a breezy romp full of colorful characters.” —New York Times Book Review (Editor's Choice) Transhumanism is a movement pushing the limits of our bodies—our capabilities, intelligence, and lifespans—in the hopes that, through technology, we can become something better than ourselves. It has found support among Silicon Valley billionaires and some of the world’s biggest businesses. In To Be a Machine, journalist Mark O'Connell explores the staggering possibilities and moral quandaries that present themselves when you of think of your body as a device. He visits the world's foremost cryonics facility to witness how some have chosen to forestall death. He discovers an underground collective of biohackers, implanting electronics under their skin to enhance their senses. He meets a team of scientists urgently investigating how to protect mankind from artificial superintelligence. Where is our obsession with technology leading us? What does the rise of AI mean not just for our offices and homes, but for our humanity? Could the technologies we create to help us eventually bring us to harm? Addressing these questions, O'Connell presents a profound, provocative, often laugh-out-loud-funny look at an influential movement. In investigating what it means to be a machine, he offers a surprising meditation on what it means to be human.
