Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The trigger: The story begins with the mysterious death of watchmaker Urs Vontobel in Lucerne. Basel detective Rösli , a man of the old school, is called in to assist the down-to-earth Lucerne investigator Zgraggen . It quickly becomes clear: Vontobel was no ordinary craftsman, but an archivist of dangerous secrets from 1986 ( the Schweizerhalle disaster ).The conspiracy: The investigation leads the duo through nighttime Lucerne, an illegal casino, and finally to the windswept summit of Mount Pilatus . It turns out that Vontobel possessed data and samples from a project called 'Resonance .' A powerful pharmaceutical group had, for decades, distributed markers in the drinking water, making it possible to biometrically monitor the entire population.The showdown: On the steep cogwheel railway of Mount Pilatus, the final confrontation with the unscrupulous chemist Dr. Ganz takes place . While a helicopter circles overhead, a suspected poison ampoule is destroyed. However, Rösli realizes too late: The signal to activate the surveillance system has already been sent. The people are now 'marked,' recognizable by an eerie blue flicker in their eyes.The resolution: Rösli returns to Basel and resigns from his post, unable to tolerate digital surveillance. But Vontobel has taken precautions: he left behind an old grandfather clock bearing the Basel basilisk , containing physical deactivation codes on microfilm. Rösli hands these codes over to the Basel guilds , who, with their analog influence, establish a 'blocking signal' and transform the Basel region into a digital blind spot - a place of freedom.The legacy: In the epilogue, Rösli and Zgraggen hide the true 'original sample' of the blue fabric in the crypt of Basel Minster . The world outside remains transparent and digital, but deep in the city's foundations lies a secret with the power to bring the system down at any moment. The basilisk sleeps, but it is awake.…

Muerde con los dientes de su autora, con una lengua que dice verdades y con manos que rascan lo que nadie quiere tocar. Aquí no hay filtros, exceso de cursilerías, ni poesía educada. Hay golpes, deseos que pican, carcajadas entre lágrimas y algún verso que quizás te arañe más de lo que esperabas.Este poemario es el cuarto poemario de Désirée. Y es el cuarto donde habita su voz más sincera, la más trillada, la más dura, la que canta a voz en grito, la que maldice y la que se ríe de sí misma mientras escribe sin que ya le tiemble la mano.Aquí encontrarás poemas que no piden permiso: algunos golpean, otros te cantan al oído bajito y otros simplemente te miran con desdén mientras te recuerdan que la vida es igual de cruel que ilógica y que, a veces, la risa es el mejor antídoto.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Artificial Intelligence did not come out of nowhere. To the public, AI seemed to arrive overnight-suddenly writing, speaking, creating, predicting, and deciding. But behind that moment lies a long, often forgotten history of ideas, failures, and quiet breakthroughs stretching back centuries.This Book tells the true story of Artificial Intelligence-not as hype, prophecy, or science fiction, but as a deeply human project shaped by ambition, error, patience, and power.Written for general readers, students, and policymakers, this book answers the questions everyone is asking: - What is Artificial Intelligence-really - Who first imagined it, and why - Why did AI fail so many times before it succeeded - Why did it feel like it appeared 'all at once' - And what kind of future is AI actually leading us toward Moving from ancient myths and philosophy to modern machine learning and language models, The Book explains AI in clear, non-technical language-without equations, hype, or fear-mongering. It reveals why today's systems feel intelligent, why they are not conscious, and why misunderstanding them is far more dangerous than the technology itself.This is not a manual for programmers. It is a guide for citizens of an AI-shaped world.Perfect for readers interested in: - The history and philosophy of technology- Artificial intelligence without jargon- Ethics, power, and automation- AI's impact on work, governance, and society- A global, non-Silicon-Valley perspective on the futureArtificial Intelligence is now infrastructure. Understanding how it came to be is no longer optional. This book gives you that understanding. What This Book Is - and Is NotThis is not a technical manual. You do not need a background in computer science, mathematics, or engineering to read it. This is also not a work of science fiction, nor a manifesto predicting doom or salvation.Instead, this book is: - A historical account of how AI began and evolved- A conceptual guide to what AI really does and does not do- A philosophical reflection on intelligence, automation, and human identity- A realistic exploration of where AI is likely headed, based on evidence rather than speculationComplex ideas are explained clearly, without jargon or equations. Where technical concepts appear, they are introduced only to the extent necessary to understand the bigger picture.…

Cuatro textos unidos por una misma respiración: el amor que no se elige, la herencia que pesa y sostiene, la comunidad mínima que evita la caída, el cuerpo que sigue adelante cuando ya no hay explicación posible.Aquí no hay héroes ni redenciones ejemplares.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Book DescriptionWhy do well-intentioned interventions fail Why do systems designed to help so often create resistance, burnout, or breakdown Why does behavior change temporarily-then revert, collapse, or escalate In Meaning Alignment, Katrina M. Stradford introduces a unifying framework that explains what decades of behavior-based models have missed: behavior does not begin with motivation-it begins with meaning.Drawing from developmental psychology, systems theory, behavioral health, and real-world institutional experience, this book reframes human behavior as a navigational response to perceived coherence, safety, and dignity. When meaning aligns, behavior stabilizes. When it fractures, behavior adapts-often in ways mistakenly labeled as dysfunction, defiance, or disengagement.The Meaning Alignment Framework offers a practical, evidence-ready model for understanding how individuals, organizations, and policies succeed-or fail-based on how well they preserve internal coherence across body, mind, and identity. Stradford shows how misalignment silently drives burnout, compliance theater, chronic conflict, and systemic harm, while alignment restores agency, trust, and sustainable performance.This book moves beyond theory. It provides: - A formalized framework for diagnosing misalignment- Visual operational models for individuals, organizations, and policy systems- Lifespan-based activation cycles explaining predictable breakdown points- Tools for designing interventions that hold under pressure- Measurement strategies for research, evaluation, and large-scale implementationWritten for practitioners, leaders, educators, policymakers, and researchers, Meaning Alignment offers a new human systems science-one that replaces control with coherence, punishment with understanding, and short-term compliance with long-term stability.This is not a book about fixing people.It is a book about designing systems humans can survive-and sustain.…
