Book Description
So Where Did We Go Wrong? is titled as such because, in the last sixty years, I have witnessed the very values that many have grown up with and have tried to follow being abandoned in exchange for the pursuit of earthly possessions. Just as disheartening, walking over and ignoring the "little" people that might get in the way. The same can be said of the rest of society! Since it seems too many have left the church and have sacrificed their integrity, wishing to live only for the moment. Anyway, this book--and the others that follow, are my attempt to get them to right their wrongs and return to the desired pathway that will lead them Homeward.

Book Description
This novel, Children of Silicon, explores a slice of your far future. If you had to live and work in this age with robots how would you feel? There is no answer until a multitude of other questions are asked and answered, right? How safe and how intelligent they are come tome to mind immediately, among many others? However, if at this future time a decades long study had been completed called, The Model of the Human Mind', and if a conscious, electronic mind had been forged from their Human Brain Model, not a software driven computer mind, and packaged in a human-like frame, assuming it' was safe and of equal intelligence, would this help your comfort level? Would you feel more comfy' if you knew it had fully functional genitalia and a full range of emotional responses or would you rather it didn't have any of either? Would you care if it' vied for your girl/boyfriend or job, or loan, or home site? If so what hierarchy, limits and restrictions would you impose on this new human? Perhaps your future kin will opt to make them aids or slaves? Do you suppose some of these limits could affect negatively the desired result of building a compassionate human companion or might it' become too alien' for you to empathize with (i.e., just another mechanical robot a machine!)? If you have thought deeply about these questions you will realize the difficulty your' future generations will experience when they face the most sensational and transitional of all future events; the face off between the two human' minds, the organic biological human mind and the electronic silicon chip human mind. Read Children of Silicon and see if you agree that I've picked a most likely scenario for this precipitous event.

Book Description
A proto-meme is beginning to 'go critical'. If you're looking at this book you might even be a part of that meme. Somewhere the advertising business kinda lost the plot, we're not sure exactly sure where. So many incompetents, who can't know we are incompetent because the skills we need to produce the right answers are exactly the skills we lack in order to know what a right answer is. What happens now? Who knows? But let's tackle it head-on with punk rock, cheap philosophy and evolutionary psychology and take a hair-raising ride to the Dunning-Kruger peak of advertising...

Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
China is surging in the tech race — and will continue to outperform the United States. The rising power has done exceptionally in Super Apps, bullet trains, 5G, electric vehicles, digital currency, smart cities, blockchain applications, and quantum communications in space, among others. Its payment platforms are increasingly adopted along the entire Silk Road.The genesis of this book was to discover an 'Apollo Program' for the US to catch up in these areas, but we discovered a much deeper need for a social/mental health Apollo Program for millennials who are bogged down by a host of under-appreciated and intertwined issues which cause anxiety and alienation and lead to massive losses in workplace productivity. This book proposes two Apollo programs — one for tech and one for millennials — by a millennial. Strategies for cracking the highly competitive Chinese Super App ecommerce market are also revealed.Related Link(s)

Grain by Grain

Publisher: Island Press
ISBN: 1610919955
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
"A compelling agricultural story skillfully told; environmentalists will eat it up." - Kirkus Reviews When Bob Quinn was a kid, a stranger at a county fair gave him a few kernels of an unusual grain. Little did he know, that grain would change his life. Years later, after finishing a PhD in plant biochemistry and returning to his family’s farm in Montana, Bob started experimenting with organic wheat. In the beginning, his concern wasn’t health or the environment; he just wanted to make a decent living and some chance encounters led him to organics. But as demand for organics grew, so too did Bob’s experiments. He discovered that through time-tested practices like cover cropping and crop rotation, he could produce successful yields—without pesticides. Regenerative organic farming allowed him to grow fruits and vegetables in cold, dry Montana, providing a source of local produce to families in his hometown. He even started producing his own renewable energy. And he learned that the grain he first tasted at the fair was actually a type of ancient wheat, one that was proven to lower inflammation rather than worsening it, as modern wheat does. Ultimately, Bob’s forays with organics turned into a multimillion dollar heirloom grain company, Kamut International. In Grain by Grain, Quinn and cowriter Liz Carlisle, author of Lentil Underground, show how his story can become the story of American agriculture. We don’t have to accept stagnating rural communities, degraded soil, or poor health. By following Bob’s example, we can grow a healthy future, grain by grain.
