Conversations with John Searle |
| Información:
|
This book treats many complex topics such as the relationship between brain and consciousness, the 'Chinese Room' argument, and Searle's aesthetic and political ideas.
This is NOT the typical interview book, filled with self-indulgence and old-time stories. Mr. Faigenbaum uses his deep knowledge of Searle's developments to discuss the central aspects of his work, shedding light on the key role Searle played in 20th century philosophy. Thorough but also entertaining, a book that should be read by anyone who wants to understand the underlying tension in current philosophical ideas. The book also includes many revealing stories and facts about Searle's years at Oxford. |

The Scientific Conquest of Death. Essays on Infinite Lifespans |
| Información:
|
"Some of the deepest prejudices of professional biologists concerning immortality are certainly false. Aging is not a universal. There are organisms that are biologically immortal...".
MICHAEL ROSE, PH.D
"Possibly the most absurd of the arguments opposing the search for a cure of human aging is that to extend our lifespans indefinitely would be unnatural: would render us in some sense no longer human. I regard this view as so uniquely absurd...".
AUBREY DE GREY, PH.D
"Still resident in the human body are potential heirs of our immortal legacy, cells that have the potential to leave no dead ancestors; cells from a lineage called the germ-line. These cells have the ability for immortal renewal as demonstrated by the fact that babies are born young, and those babies have the potential to someday make their own babies, and so on, forever...".
MICHAEL D. WEST, PH.D
"We are rapidly growing more intimate with our technology. Computers started out as large remote machines in air-conditioned rooms tended by white-coated technicians. Subsequently they moved onto our desks, then under our arms, and now in our pockets. Soon, we'll routinely put them inside our bodies and brains. Ultimately we will become more nonbiological than biological...".
RAYMOND KURZWEIL, PH.D
"Everyone wants wisdom and wealth. Nevertheless, our health often gives out before we achieve them. To lengthen our lives, and improve our minds, in the future we will need to change our bodies and brains. To that end, we first must consider how normal Darwinian evolution brought us to where we are. Then we must imagine ways in which future replacements for worn body parts might solve most problems of failing health. We must then invent strategies to augment our brains and gain greater wisdom. Eventually we will entirely replace our brains -using nanotechnology. Once delivered from the limitations of biology, we will be able to decide the length of our lives -with the option of immortality- and choose among other, unimagined capabilities as well...".

Children's Economic Experience: Exchange, Reciprocity and Value |
| Información:
|
This book maps an aspect of children's social development that has been neglected in psychological research, namely, their acquisition of the capability to participate in economic transactions. In their everyday life, children exchange a variety of goods with their peers. Girls and boys frequently trade cards, marbles, candies, as well as immaterial goods such as score values and gestures of friendship. This book is about children as exchange agents. It attempts to describe the process through which children acquire the capability to participate in commercial transactions. We present a collection of empirical studies and a review of extant literature in the area to delineate a general picture of the development of children as exchange agents. |

The War of the Worlds |
| Información:
|
H. G. Wells wrote this novel in the late 1800's, establishing science fiction as serious literature.

Thinking and Doing. The Internet's New Age of Business |
| Información:
|
This book discusses the setting in which digital business will develop while analyzing both the internet's history and evolution and digital consumer and website behavior up to the present.
It examines how businesses begin to look inward, at our past and at the very essence of our culture and diverse other cultures. What are the successful characteristics companies have and will have in the oncoming age of the Internet? What are the factors that will guide businesses towards the future, and what can executives do to identify opportunities?
The author recommends considering a possible strategy that is going to gain prominence in the next few years: "cultural e-marketing", a strategy that will allow companies to compete internationally as they enjoy the full advantages of worldwide diffusion and technological application while catering to the cultural identity of local markets.
He explains why organizations should incorporate a "creativity department" into their structures (and we do not mean graphic design) and discusses how to face obstacles and turn fears into organizational learning.
In addition, he presents practical elements such as a guide to developing business plans, a glossary with the most frequently used terms, examples, practical cases and tools for entrepreneurs to tackle this world of changes: "The New Age of Internet". |
