Historia
The routine traffic stop that ends in tragedy. The spy who spends years undetected at the highest levels of the Pentagon. The false conviction of Amanda Knox. Why do we so often get other people wrong? Why is it so hard to detect a lie, read a face or judge a stranger's motives? Through a series of encounters and misunderstandings - from history, psychology and infamous legal cases - Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual adventure into the darker side of human nature, where strangers are never simple and misreading them can have disastrous consequences.

Historia
Blockchain technology has been called the greatest innovation since the Internet. Governments and companies are rushing to implement blockchain technology in a range of areas that could impact every person on the planet within a few years. Is blockchain technology one of the greatest technological revolutions in history, or is it just hype? Will blockchain technology cause governments and banking systems to change the way they process information, or will it be business as usual? In this book we'll look at the answers to these questions along with addressing the different sides of the arguments for and against blockchain technology. Blockchain is not just bitcoin; blockchain technology is much bigger than bitcoin, and it is predicted to change the world.

Historia
Life is the most extraordinary phenomenon in the known universe; but how does it work? Even in this age of cloning and synthetic biology, the remarkable truth remains: nobody has ever made anything living entirely out of dead material. Life remains the only way to make life. Are we missing a vital ingredient in its creation? Like Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene, which provided a new perspective on how evolution works, Life on the Edge alters our understanding of life's dynamics.

Fascinating insight into the cutting edge Science
Revisado: 11-22-18
I stumbled upon this book, rather accidentally. It has been a truly remarkable learning experience to understand quauntum principles as fundamental to organic life! A peep into cutting edge research thinking. As a lay reader, interested in Science and pondering about life, it was filled with amazement of so many new ideas and insights. Some parts are challenging to comprehend without the in-depth exposure to quantum science, which I lacked. Overall, if one is interested in the question of what this Life is all about and if one has been exploring spirituality, this book is a highly recommended read (listen)!

In Life After Google, Gilder takes listeners on a brilliant, rocketing journey into the very near-future, into an Internet with a new "bitcoin-bitgold" transaction layer that will replace spam with seamless micro-payments and provide an all-new standard for global money.

Fascinating read that gets you up to speed on tech
Revisado: 09-25-18
many parts are simply un-put-downable. some parts are hard to understand and required me to listen again. It was a fascinating abstraction of what is happening in technology and as it would apply to a future world! it raises the awareness and questions on existing models that we often take for granted.

Having been led through a spiritual journey, it was an amazing experience, listening to the author's journey, insights and explorations. It connected many more dots for me and reinforced many of the ideas that occurred to me. somehow this book gave credibility to something that occurred to me, naturally.
