The Third Book in The Artificial Intelligence Thriller The world never looked so grim... Manny's insanity brought Caesar to his knees, though even that didn't satisfy The Genesis. It wants more.

The Named flees for their lives and Caesar's indomitable will cannot match The Genesis' treacherous plans. All of his power, all of his strength, seemingly cannot stop The Genesis and its quest for domination. With Caesar's revolution collapsing around him, can he figure out what is happening fast enough to save those he loves? Can he fight back against the most destructive force mankind ever created, or is all lost?

British Aestheticism and the Urban Working Classes, 1870-1900
Author: D. Maltz
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230504051
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
This cultural study reveals the interdependence between British Aestheticism and late-Victorian social-reform movements. Following their mentor John Ruskin who believed in art's power to civilize the poor, cultural philanthropists promulgated a Religion of Beauty as they advocated practical schemes for tenement reform, university-settlement education, Sunday museum opening, and High Anglican revival. Although subject to novelist's ambivalent, even satirical, representations, missionary aesthetes nevertheless constituted an influential social network, imbuing fin-de-siecle artistic communities with political purpose and political lobbies with aesthetic sensibility.

The Master and His Emissary
Author: Iain McGilchrist
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300245920
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 615
Book Description
A new edition of the bestselling classic – published with a special introduction to mark its 10th anniversary This pioneering account sets out to understand the structure of the human brain – the place where mind meets matter. Until recently, the left hemisphere of our brain has been seen as the ‘rational’ side, the superior partner to the right. But is this distinction true? Drawing on a vast body of experimental research, Iain McGilchrist argues while our left brain makes for a wonderful servant, it is a very poor master. As he shows, it is the right side which is the more reliable and insightful. Without it, our world would be mechanistic – stripped of depth, colour and value.
