Spinoza, Atheist
From Pulitzer Prize finalist Steven Nadler, a fascinating historical and philosophical narrative that unravels the mystery of whether Spinoza was an atheistIn 1656, a young Amsterdam merchant was excommunicated by his Portuguese-Jewish community in the harshest terms it had ever used. Baruch Spinoza was accused of unspecified “horrifying heresies,” but the precise reasons for his expulsion remain a mystery. When he published his Theological-Political Treatise in 1670, which was condemned as “the most atheistic book ever written,” he began to reveal to the world what his heresies may have been. Yet ever since the eighteenth century, most readers and scholars have assumed that Spinoza was a pantheist—even a “God-intoxicated man,” as the poet Novalis put it. After all, how could a person whose books are suffused with talk of God be an atheist? In Spinoza, Atheist, Steven Nadler, one of the world’s leading authorities on the philosopher, aims to settle the question and show that that’s exactly what he was. Nadler makes a powerful case that there is no real divinity for Spinoza. God is Nature, and isn’t an object of worshipful awe or religious reverence but can only be understood through philosophy and science. There is nothing supernatural—no mystery, ineffability, or sublimity. Spinoza does speak of “blessedness” and “salvation,” but these, too, are to be understood in natural and rational terms, as the peace of mind and happiness that come from understanding ourselves and the world. Whether Spinoza believed in God is a fascinating and enduring controversy. Spinoza, Atheist promises to transform our understanding of his views and to make clear just how radical a thinker he was and remains.
All My Love
Petra and Johannes seem made for one another. A lawyer and a doctor. Well brought up, ambitious. Their friends Julia and Axel are different - from them, and from each other. Julia fights for her convictions. Axel manoeuvres his way to political power. Desire moves like an undertow between them all, dangerous and destabilising. Inconvenient truths are buried, but can only stay that way for so long. Meanwhile, the country around them changes. Laws tighten. Freedoms are curtailed. People begin to disappear. The personal and the political collide. It is easier, at first, to look away than to let the facts in. Until they arrive at the door. 'What a writer Agnes Lidbeck is - bold, blisteringly intelligent, deliciously playful.'- Katie Kitamura, author of Audition and Intimacies

Tilton and Grace Entokah
Tilton and Grace Entokah: An Osage Story offers an episodic history of the Osage Nation of Oklahoma as told through the life narratives of Anthony Lookout's great-grandparents Tilton and Grace Entokah. Anthony Lookout grew up hearing the stories of his relatives, including those of his great-grandfather Fred Lookout, who served as the principal chief of the Osage Nation in the early twentieth century. Anthony Lookout's father, Morris Lookout, methodically recorded the oral traditions and tribal stories of Osage elders and relatives on reel-to-reel tapes from 1965 to 1971. The recordings preserved generations of Osage history, religious practices, and cultural traditions reaching back to the mid-nineteenth century. To write this story of his family and Osage history, Anthony Lookout did additional research in archival collections, newspapers, and magazines and interviewed elders. From the perspective of a participant rather than an observer, Lookout tells the tribal history of the Osage Nation's removal from their Kansas homelands in 1865 and relocation to Oklahoma's Indian Territory from 1872 to the early 1940s. The heart of the story revolves around Lookout's great-grandmother Grace Entokah, who grew up as a traditional Osage woman, and adapted through traumatic and uncertain times, staying true to her Osage culture. She went from riding horses to riding in automobiles, eventually meeting the president of the United States. Lookout covers the family history of the Entokahs, the Allotment Act of 1906, Oklahoma statehood, the depredations of mining and oil companies on Osage lands, the establishment of tribal government and courts, Principal Chief Fred Lookout's journeys to Washington, DC, to meet top government leaders, as well as tribal stories of the infamous 1920s Osage murders and other key episodes in Osage history. Tilton and Grace Entokah is not only the story of the Entokahs but also an Osage history written from the collective memory of those on the Osage reservation.

"Talán szellem vagyok, nem is kellene élnem, járkálok itt, mint egy kísértet, és halálra rémisztem a szerencsétlen orvosokat."
Tíz évvel ezelőtt legyőzte a rákot, és megírta küzdelme harcias, diadalmas naplóját. De mi történik akkor, ha a háború nem ér véget az első csata megnyerése után? Mi marad a hősmítoszból, ha a szörnyeteg kilenc év tünetmentesség után újra felébred?

Ako premýšľať o umelej inteligencii
Richard Susskind rozpráva fascinujúci príbeh umelej inteligencie a prináša stručného sprievodcu, ktorý nás núti prehodnotiť všetko, čo sme si o nej doteraz mysleli. Vyvádza umelú inteligenciu z prísne strážených počítačových laboratórií technologických gigantov priamo do nášho každodenného života. Od príchodu systému ChatGPT zaplavila verejnosť vlna záujmu o AI, no zároveň zavládol zmätok. Čo vlastne umelá inteligencia dokáže a kde sú jej limity? Čo nás ešte len čaká? Je pre ľudstvo spásou alebo najväčšou existenčnou hrozbou? Susskind sa nevyhýba ani pálčivým otázkam o regulácii a morálnych hraniciach, ktoré by sme pri jej používaní mali jasne stanoviť.
V knihe Ako premýšľať o umelej inteligencii autor čerpá zo svojich bohatých skúseností, keďže tejto téme sa venuje už od začiatku 80. rokov. Vyváženie prínosov a hrozieb AI považuje za kľúčovú výzvu našej doby. Jeho pohľady sú často nekonvenčné – ChatGPT a generatívnu AI vníma len ako najnovšiu kapitolu v dlhom príbehu a tvrdí, že sme stále iba na začiatku skutočného technického rozmachu. Naznačuje, že technológie, ktoré ešte neboli ani vynájdené, ovplyvnia naše životy v 30. rokoch tohto storočia oveľa zásadnejšie než čokoľvek, čo máme k dispozícii dnes. Otvára tým fascinujúcu diskusiu o možnostiach vedomých strojov, o veľkolepých virtuálnych svetoch a o vplyve AI na samotnú evolúciu človeka.
