AN URGENT AND PRACTICAL GUIDE TO COMMUNITY RESILIENCE IN THE FACE OF CLIMATE CATASTROPHE

Exploring themes of self-doubt and self-destruction, this surreal dark comedy delves into the internal obstacles that hinder personal fulfillment. With a blend of humor and empathy, it presents an absurdist love story intertwined with existential elements. The narrative invites readers to confront the metaphorical mountain lion-sized void within, challenging the societal expectations of love, success, and well-being. Through its unique storytelling, it encourages reflection on the barriers we create for ourselves.

The evangelists of technology promise innovations -from smartphones to bitcoin, AI, and machine learning- to transfigure our lives. But at what cost? In Radical Technologies, Adam Greenfield forces us to reconsider our relationship with the networked objects, services, and spaces that define us. How do these technologies reshape the economy, subvert the fundamental terms of our politics, and even redefine what it means to be human? Greenfield has written an incisive and disturbing guide to the gadgets transforming our lives, providing a gripping re-evaluation of the Silicon Valley consensus currently shaping the future.

Computers affect us everyday from shopping online to paying tolls. This book looks at how this emerging technology will shape our lives.
