“Lively. . . . Rousing. . . . Prophecy—roving, intelligent, irreducibly idiosyncratic—can expand our sense of possibility, starting now.” —The New York Times Book Review Tech empires are the prophets of the modern day, and like the ancient oracles and medieval astrologers that preceded...

In a historically unprecedented collaboration, leading futurist and bestselling author Jamie Metzl partners with the AI system GPT-5 to demonstrate a breathtaking possibility: that advanced artificial intelligence, guided by human ethics and wisdom, can help shape a more humane future. At a moment of rapid AI disruption, growing concern about AI governance, and deep uncertainty about the future of technology, this groundbreaking work reveals how we can partner with advanced AI to foster peace, understanding, and responsible decision-making-if we are ready to listen.

You chose breakfast this morning the same way you choose everything else. The same pattern you use to pick what to eat is the one you use to evaluate a career, assess a relationship, respond to a crisis, or judge an argument. You have one way of navigating trade-offs, and you apply it everywhere because inventing a new approach for every new situation would require resources no human mind possesses. This is not a flaw. It is the most efficient strategy available to any system operating with limited means in an unlimited world.

Science is the most powerful method of understanding the world that human beings have ever devised. It splits atoms, sequences genomes, and photographs black holes. But it is also performed by brains—brains that think in metaphors, organize experience into stories, and coordinate collective action through ritual. What happens when we take that fact seriously? In Science and Taboo, Boris Kriger draws on the predictive processing revolution in cognitive science to reveal the hidden architecture of scientific thought.

Across centuries, humanity has not abandoned wonder but translated it, replacing incantations with equations and rituals with methods, without dissolving the astonishment that once animated myth and faith. What appears today as advanced science often occupies the same psychological and cultural space once reserved for miracles.

What if your immune system, your cognitive biases, your society’s institutions, and the orbital mechanics of binary stars all obey the same structural rules—not by analogy, but by necessity? Most scientists climb partway up the tree of abstraction and come back with a result. Most philosophers climb to the top and never come down. This book describes what happens when someone completes the full journey: all the way up to the limit of formal generalisation, a clear look at the structural landscape, and all the way back down with a map.

Chaos becoming cosmos - we are participants and recipients in its meaning and marvels. ''Human beings and our ancestors have been meaning seekers and meaning makers even before our most ancient beginnings. And at the start of that search are these questions: Why is there something rather than nothing? Why is the world comprehensible at all? Where did we come from? Do we belong?''-from the Introduction.

What remains of a human being when the oldest instinct—self-preservation—is silenced? In a world where survival has become both an obsession and a constraint, Stripped of Self-Preservation: Between Fear and Freedom asks what it means to live when the impulse to avoid harm dominates every gesture, every thought, every choice. This book unravels the instinct that once protected life, now turned into a force that limits it. Through the lens of philosophy, psychology, neurobiology, and cultural analysis, it explores how fear shapes not only bodies but entire civilizations.

This book challenges one of the most persistent illusions of modern thought: the belief that evidence alone decides which theories are true. Across science, philosophy, and public debate, theories are often judged by popularity, elegance, authority, or the sheer volume of supporting data. Yet disagreement persists even where facts are shared. The reason, Boris Kriger argues, lies deeper than evidence itself. Every theory rests on an underlying structure that determines what counts as an explanation, what is allowed, and what is silently ruled out.

A ciência, cada vez mais, tem questionado e refutado o senso comum e as crenças que a humanidade vem acumulando ao longo das gerações. Diante desse conflito entre as experiências subjetivas e as evidências científicas, é comum indagar: afinal, o que é ciência? Como ela funciona? Para que serve? O que diferencia ciência de pseudociência? Como a ciência é impactada pelas fake news e pela desinformação?

Most people who survive a catastrophic collapse of the body come back with a story about resilience, medical heroism, or gratitude for a second chance. Barry Fortner came back with something else: a realisation that the entire structure of knowing he had built his life upon—career, identity, intellect, faith, expertise—rested on foundations far more fragile than he had ever imagined. There are many books about illness. There are many philosophy books. Profound Ignorance is neither and both.
