Historia
At the beginning of Nonzero, Robert Wright sets out to "define the arrow of the history of life, from the primordial soup to the World Wide Web." Twenty-two chapters later, after a sweeping and vivid narrative of the human past, he has succeeded and has mounted a powerful challenge to the conventional view that evolution and human history are aimless.

Revisado: 08-03-23
A neverending cascade of delicous small bites of human behaviors, science from every time and place, and righteous history, leading to big satisfying bites of history, one after another.
I see David Graeber reaching out from the grave to shake the author's hand.
Since Dawn of Everything by, David Graeber & David Wengrow, a lot of the pirate books documenting our forming stakeholder societies are rolling out. Robert Wright gives us the structure, the how and why this is the likely state of man for 10s of thousands of years. Greek reason and insight shows the likely natural peaceful state of man.
This is a huge book if you're paying attention.

Progressives claimed they knew how to solve homelessness, inequality, and crime. But in cities they control, progressives made those problems worse.

Unhappy from a bird's eye view. The author opposed openair treatment, suggesting inside treatment.
Advocating a return to violence as the answer without saying it to loud.
Premises are maufactured and thrown around as facts. Eick I say,. EICK !!

Historia
We’ve come a long way. The earliest human had a brain as small as a child’s fist; ours are four times bigger, with spectacular abilities and potential we are only just beginning to understand. This is How the Mind Changed, a seven-million-year journey through our own heads, packed with vivid stories, groundbreaking science, and thrilling surprises. Discover how memory has almost nothing to do with the past.

Sweet round up of cutting edge science, life altering diseases we can likely reverse now. I fell in love when I heard
...bio-cuticle, the sweetest technology where technologies, biology, chemistry, etc .., come together under electric, bio electric signal control, one ring, so to speak.., to control them all !!
Sally Adee wrote We are. Electric. She is DARPA approved, so it's out in the open folks.
Pros have a moral obligation and ah-hem, self interest to please read Sally Adee s "We are Electric."

Historia
Epigenetics is the science of living DNA, charting the chemical pathways that spur DNA into action by turning genes on and off. While the Human Genome Project of the early 2000s was hailed as the key to understanding human heredity and disease, that historic effort was just the beginning. It has taken epigenetics to fill in the picture, explaining how the fixed code of our genome is implemented in countless living processes.

Details details details...,
Epigenetics it says and Epigenetics it is.
Presentation efficiently enhanced by entangled narrator emotion, and you know what I mean or don't.
Nesa Carey's to die for science author's books on Epigenetics and Junk DNA has narrative exploiting this reader sweet spot. Charlotte Mykura sped and clarified no less than world renowned Nessa Carey

At this moment in the universe of human history no information package will have as powerful an effect on humanity.
Fantastic on the history leading this door opening advance for humanity.
China student in video.., "in china we start electric in students 5 years old."
The only audio book as cutting edge science as this is atomic manufacturing, which will be used to implement the bio electric, see book by Erik Dexler,
RANDOM ABUNDANCE.
The phony reviews are ingenious, and in science, psych, neuro books of quality authors these dim dum dums are hovering for fools.

Historia
Epigenetics can potentially revolutionize our understanding of the structure and behavior of biological life on Earth. It explains why mapping an organism's genetic code is not enough to determine how it develops or acts and shows how nurture combines with nature to engineer biological diversity. Surveying the 20-year history of the field while also highlighting its latest findings and innovations, this volume provides a readily understandable introduction to the foundations of epigenetics.

Dear Nessa,
I already wrote and posted as good a review as I possibly could.
Sally Adee in We Are Electric is a tad better at presentation, the subject detail a tad more cutting edge. Your two together..., to die for or rather, to live for, multidisciplinary is "in".

Historia
K. Eric Drexler is the founding father of nanotechnology - the science of engineering on a molecular level. In Radical Abundance, he shows how rapid scientific progress is about to change our world. Thanks to atomically precise manufacturing, we will soon have the power to produce radically more of what people want, and at a lower cost. The result will shake the very foundations of our economy and environment.

Top science, a thinking black hole, once in..., infinite new thought from physical science, no getting out.
A genius can't say how or why private enterprise delayed. lol
Feel blessed author, not long ago the Dulles bros might have waved at this amazing book, disappearing your book and maybe you too..., as a black cloud blocked the sun for a millisecond.
Any serious audiophile will instantly see, this amazing NEW science is a stand alone, unsurpassed book by a good guy.
Microbiological, neural...,, science books scrutinized by interdisciplinarity have so wowed us, application outside the human body goes to that blank spot on the right brain, like para science. So unbelievable, so amazing, one can miss that this is so big a science field, it is beyond us, in application and easy mentalizing..., for the moment.
There were no reviews when I got this book, the reviews I saw validate my observations.

Loved this Book !! CUTTING EDGE SCIENCE
Revisado: 03-30-23
Cutting edge, all encompassing. Science's spectacular achievements in human interdisciplinary biotechnology.
All she tells will happen, is, has, happened, I can't find a practical information book that covers pretty much all encompassing to "What's happening" past entrenched, Medieval Pharma .
These trixter book reviews are all over audible. Most of us and our doctors have NO IDEA...
Wanna know stuff? This book is for you.

Historia
Have you ever wondered why you have a brain? Let renowned neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett demystify that big gray blob between your ears. In seven short essays (plus a bite-sized story about how brains evolved), this slim, entertaining, and accessible collection reveals mind-expanding lessons from the front lines of neuroscience research. You'll learn where brains came from, how they're structured (and why it matters), and how yours works in tandem with other brains to create everything you experience.
