Koho by kdy napadlo, že bezcitný stroj na zabíjení bude čelit tolika morálním dilematům? Bezcitný stroj na zabíjení, kterého čtenáři této sci-fi sérii znají pod jménem Robokat, se opět vrhá do víru dobrodružství a nebezpečných situací. Jako už tolikrát předtím se bude i tentokrát pohybovat na hraně mezi nezájmem o okolí a rostoucím smyslem pro spravedlnost a zodpovědnost. Unaví Robokata neustálý konflikt s lidmi a dovede ho k naprosté apatii, nebo vytrvá v hledání důkazů proti těm, kteří mají na svědomí smrt nevinných lidí, a dokáže, že lidskost lze zrovna tak ztratit, jako získat? Martha Wells mistrně odkrývá tajemná zákoutí robotovy duše a nechává nahlédnout do myšlenkových pochodů někoho, kdo nechce mít s lidmi nic společného, ale přitom se poddává tak běžným lidským projevům, jako je vztek, soucit, sympatie a hlavně zdravá dávka ironie.

Věrným čtenářům brilantně napsané sci-fi série Z deníků Robokata není třeba představovat hlavní postavu humanoidního robota, který se při kontaktu s lidmi nedokáže ubránit sarkastickým poznámkám na adresu lidstva. Jenže ve svém novém dobrodružství zažije Robokat naprosto nečekané situace a bude se muset projevit tak, jak ho čtenáři doposud nepoznali.Když se na pokojné stanici v oblasti pod správou Skupiny pro ochranu prostředí nalezne tělo zavražděného muže, musí místní ochranka navzdory počáteční neochotě a nedůvěře přibrat Robokata do svého vyšetřovacího týmu a nechat ho, aby s inspektorkou Aylenovou dopadl vraha podle svých vlastních a leckdy nevybíravých metod.Martha Wells v této novele opět obhájila pověst skvělé vypravěčky a podobně jako v předchozích dílech, i zde vykreslila na pozadí napínavého příběhu, nyní dokonce s detektivní zápletkou, dilema spolupráce lidí a strojů, jež občas paradoxně dokážou uštědřit svým tvůrcům lekci z lidskosti, zodpovědnosti a přátelství.

Z deníků Robokata 1 – Výpadek systémů - Martha Wells - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Měl se postarat o jejich bezpečnost. Teď má však dost starostí sám se sebou…V budoucnosti ovládané technologickými korporacemi nabere průzkumná mise týmu vědců na vzdálené planetě nečekaný směr. Nejdřív jsou napadeni neznámým monstrem, před nímž je oficiální zpráva o možných rizicích v dané oblasti jaksi zapomněla varovat, a když se jiná skupina působící na opačné straně světa odmlčí, najdou při záchranné výpravě jen hromadu mrtvol, povražděných vlastními bezpečnostními jednotkami. Zmíněné události je donutí přehodnotit odmítavý postoj k přítomnosti androida, kterého jim přidělila společnost dohlížející na všechny vesmírné projekty. Bez jeho schopností a zbraní by totiž přežili jen těžko. Má to ovšem jeden háček – jejich neživý ochránce potají hacknul vlastní systém, nabyl vědomí a nyní se identifikuje jako Robokat. A jeho jediným přáním je mít od lidí pokoj a trávit čas sledováním oblíbeného seriálu…Humorná i napínavá sci-fi novela, ověnčená žánrovými cenami Nebula, Hugo a Locus, se stala prvním dílem úspěšného cyklu Z deníků Robokata. Ve stejnojmenném seriálu (od roku 2025 na Apple TV+) ztvárnil nevšedního titulního hrdinu Alexander Skarsgård.„Je to tak dobré, jak se říká, a zaslouží si to všechna ta ocenění? Rozhodně ano. Je to vtipná, chytrá próza se skvělým protagonistou a silným příběhem.“ – SFBook„V tom tkví síla postavy Robokata – že něco nám natolik vzdáleného může být tak lidské. Že se s ním dokáže ztotožnit každý, kdo se někdy chtěl schovat v přeplněné místnosti, vyhýbal se pohledům ostatních, hledal útočiště v osamělé zábavě nebo lhal kvůli přežití.“ – NPR „Je snadné pochopit, proč autorka získala tolik zasloužených cen. Výpadek systémů nabízí zábavné a poutavé čtení.“ – Grimdark Magazine„Martha Wells stvořila něco opravdu jedinečného!“ – The Fantasy ReviewNechal jsem tedy oči zavřené, abych si to trochu usnadnil, ale dál jsem vše sledoval přes bezpečnostní kamery. Nakonec jsem ze sebe vypravil: „Planetární společnost se vás nesnaží zabít.“To nečekali. Gurathin chtěl něco říct, ale Pin-Lee mu naznačila, ať je zticha. Mensahová udělala krok dopředu a s obavami se na mě podívala. Stála teď ke mně nejblíž a ostatní se shlukli za ní. Bharadwajová zůstala na židli, a tím i nejdál ode mě.„Jak to můžeš vědět?“ zeptala se Mensahová.I přes kamery mi to dávalo pěkně zabrat. Představil jsem si, že jsem v bezpečí své kóje a řekl jsem: „Kdyby se vás společnost chtěla zbavit, otrávila by vám přes recyklační systém zásoby vody. Spíš někoho jednou zabijí svou neschopností.“Chvíli nikdo nic neříkal. Asi všichni mysleli na to, jak jednoduché by pro společnost bylo načasovat jejich konec. „Ale to by přece,“ začal Ratthi, ale dál se nedostal. Gurathin, s odhodlanějším výrazem ve tváři než obyčejně, mu do toho vpadl: „Tahle jednotka ví, jak zabíjet lidi – a to myslím lidi, které dostala za úkol chránit. Má na kontě padesát sedm členů týmu jedné důlní operace.“Vzpomínáte si, jak jsem na začátku říkal, že poté, co jsem se naboural do svého řídicího centra, se ze mě klidně mohl stát masový vrah? No, něco pravdy na tom bylo – stal jsem se jím totiž už předtím. – ukázka z knihy

New Jewellery Techniques: Curved Scoring and Folding for Metalwork and Silversmithing - Anastasia Young, Paul Wells
A detailed and abundantly-illustrated reference that focuses on the innovative curved score folding for sheet metal techniques to create beautiful, dynamic three-dimensional forms, much like metal origami, in jewellery and metalsmithing. Anastasia Young and Paul Wells, both renowned London-based jewellers, authors and lecturers, have created a practical visual handbook on curved scoring and folding techniques applied to jewellery and metalsmithing for small objects. The book s clear, hands-on approach, with explanatory photographs for each step, makes it an invaluable resource for established jewellers wishing to learn more about new techniques, jewellery students, home crafters and advanced amateurs. Readers will discover a variety of ways to score and fold metal and give it different finishes, shaping flat sheets into to visually stunningly organic forms, including guides on the tools needed for each method. A final section contains useful resources, from a detailed analysis of score depth based on the gauge of the wire used (through diagrams to aid design and planning) to information about where to source materials and facts about metalworking and jewellery in general. AUTHORS: Anastasia Young is a London-based jewellery artist, author and lecturer whose work has been exhibited internationally. Young s eclectic jewellery is often project-based and driven by a combination of ideas and technical investigation; she uses narrative to explore both the design of a piece and its display when not being worn. Examples of her work are held in the permanent collections of the Science Museum, London and Central Saint Martins Museum. Young is a graduate of the Royal College of Art and Central Saint Martins, where she lectures and teaches short courses in jewellery making. Having written three technical jewellery books (Thames Hudson, A C Black) which have been translated into seven languages, Young is well known as an educator and through her teaching and writing. In 2017, Anastasia was appointed to the board of the Association for Contemporary Jewellery, and is also the Technical Features Editor of its biannual magazine, Findings. Paul Wells is an award-winning London based silversmith and jeweler, renowned for his use of direct metalworking techniques. Wells silverware makes innovative use of fold-forming and he has developed a method of creating curved scores which can be used to fold sheet metal in a visually stunning and unique style. His technique has been recognised by Goldsmiths Crafts and Design Council with two Gold Awards for Technological Innovation. Wells exploration of this technique has led to the production of intrinsically organic silver forms which almost appear to have grown themselves into existence, creating confounding biomorphic designs that are both functional and decorative. Having taught at several London colleges for two decades, Paul Wells is a respected educator and keen advocate of fold-forming, and has contributed to many books published by Quarto, Thames Hudson and A C Black. SELLING POINTS: . An essential, easy-to-understand reference for anyone who wants to perfect his or her metalworking techniques, full of photographs to illustrate every step of the way . The only book on the market that demonstrates the curved scoring technique . Filled with practical resources such as tips, advice on tools, diagrams, and a glossary of commonly-used industry terms . Renowned authors with ample experience both in jewellery making and teaching, thus providing a very instructional and informational text. Anastasia Young s previous books have become a reference in the field of jewellery . A detailed and richly-illustrated reference book on contemporary metalworking and jewellery techniques for home-crafters and serious amateurs, and even professional jewellers 450 illustrations

In this Very Short Introduction , Margaret A. Boden reviews the philosophical and technological challenges raised by Artificial Intelligence, considering whether programs could ever be really intelligent, creative or even conscious, and shows how the pursuit of Artificial Intelligence has helped us to appreciate how human and animal minds are possible.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly.

The Invisible Man and The Food of the Gods - Herbert George Wells
With an Introduction and Notes by Linda Dryden, Professor of English Literature at Edinburgh Napier University and the author of Joseph Conrad and H. G. Wells: The Fin-de Siecle-Literary Scene.At the end of the nineteenth century a stranger arrives in the Sussex countryside and mayhem ensues; in the sleepy county of Kent a miracle food brings biological chaos that engulfs and threatens the entire planet. H. G. Wells s fertile and mercurial imagination never brought us more bizarre and unsettling stories than those revealed in The Invisible Man (1897) and The Food of the Gods, and How It Came to Earth (1904). These are stories of extraordinary physical transformations and are at once extremely funny and richly imaginative. At the same time, Wells poses some very probing questions about the ethical dimensions to science and the human capacity for both pity and cruelty. Brought together for the first time in this new Wordsworth edition, The Invisible Man and The Food of the Gods are two of Wells s most entertaining and thought-provoking works.

The Red Record - Ida B. Wells-Barnett
The Red Record tabulates these instances of cruelty in clear, impartial figures. Ida B. Wells original goal for the brochure was to humiliate and shock the lethargic public-and spur change-alongside the total by describing actual instances of lynching and listing the common justifications for these arbitrary executions. The practice of lynching was so pervasive in the postbellum American South that the majority of Southern politicians and leaders chose to ignore it. This lethal brand of vigilante justice was really a thinly veiled racist justification for homicidal brutality. With charges ranging from attempted stock poisoning to insulting whites, more than 200 African Americans were killed in 1892 alone. In order to let the dreadful statistics speak for themselves. The anti-lynching movement in the US was led by investigative journalist and activist Ida B. Wells, later Wells-Barnett. A Red Record used mainstream white newspapers to document a resurgence of white mob violence, building on her ground-breaking exposé Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Phases (1892), and discovered that more than 9,000 African Americans had been killed by lynching in the South between 1864 and 1894. The novel aimed to make space for one aspect of a crucial discussion about power, violence, and race in the US.

Constructing an Incarnational Theology - Samuel Wells
Why did Jesus come? The traditional argument is that he came to redeem us from sin and destroy death, and thus reverse the fall. Many have long found this unsatisfactory, because it centres human deficit, rather than divine abundance. In this study, Samuel Wells traces his notion of being with right into the Trinity itself, and in dialogue with Maximus the Confessor, Duns Scotus and Karl Barth, among others, articulates a truly Christocentric theology in which God s means and God s ends are identical. In the process, Wells not only greatly expands the compass of being with, showing its scriptural and doctrinal significance, but also offers a constructive account of the incarnation, cross and resurrection of Jesus that out-narrates conventional atonement theories. Wells correspondingly proposes an account of sin, evil, suffering and death that accords with this revised understanding. The result is a compelling and transformational proposal in incarnational theology.

Artificial Intelligence, Society and Religion - Karim Hirji
Humans derive information from a complex natural and social environment, learn from experience, create tools, adapt to change, plan actions, act in a critical and rational manner, and formulate concrete and abstract ideas. In other words, humans have intelligence. A machine that displays some or all of these characteristics has artificial intelligence (AI). Attempts to create AI systems have a long history. Yet, AI systems emerged hardly a decade ago. Since then, AI has developed remarkable capabilities. Modern AI platforms and AI-powered robots can, among other things, converse, give erudite lectures, write essays and advertising material, create images and videos, drive cars and guide drones, initiate and conduct science research, diagnose and make treatments plans for sick individuals, and so on. The impact of AI is evident in virtually all fields of human activity. The rapid pace of AI has stirred debate on whether it will not only induce mass unemployment, inequality and a major social crisis but also that one day, sentient artificial beings smarter than humans will take over the world. RELIGION, SOCIETY AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE has three basic aims. One, it provides an accessible description of AI, its capabilities and its advantages and disadvantages. Two, it explores the societal implications of the increasing AI penetration into different facets of life. Three, it looks at the confluence of AI, social factors and religion in general terms and for specific religions, that is, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam and Secularism. This book inquires: Are religion and AI compatible at the philosophical, ethical and spiritual levels? If it comes about, can sentient AI have a soul or join a religion? Are the societal roles of religion and AI complimentary or conflicting? Are the institutions, leaders and laity of the varied religions embracing or rejecting AI? What are the implications of AI being used for conducting prayers, and facilitating other religious activities? Can religion and AI be harnessed to jointly deal with the major problems like climate change, unequal education, poverty and war facing humanity today? Building on the foundation laid in the earlier three books in this series, these issues are tackled in an interdisciplinary, historical and widely accessible manner. In particular, the exposition is cognizant of the fact that modern religions and AI systems function in the context of the global neoliberal system and, in practice, reflect the values of that system. Technical material relating to AI is kept to a minimum.

Anglický spisovatel Herbert George Wells proslul zejména svými sci-fi romány Válka světů nebo Stroj času, neméně bohatá je ovšem i jeho povídková tvorba. I v ní hrají fantastické motivy významnou roli – například v příbězích o létajícím stroji či tajemné observatoři –, ale Wellsovi nejsou cizí ani povídky s prvky tajemna, dobrodružství a humoru. Vynálezci zázraků jsou prvním z plánovaných tří svazků Wellsových sebraných povídek. První oddíl tohoto svazku s názvem Ukradený bacil a jiné příběhy obsahuje patnáct po¬vídek původně publikovaných v různých periodikách v letech 1893 až 1895, které poprvé jako celek vyšly v knize The Stolen Bacillus and Other Incidents (1895). K těmto povídkám připo¬jujeme povídku „Temporální argonauti“ (Chronic Argonauts) z roku 1888. Druhý oddíl tvoří všech sedmnáct povídek ze souboru The Plattner Story and Other (1897), jež samostatně vychá¬zely v letech 1894 až 1896 vyjma povídek „Ztracené dědictví“ (The Lost Inheritance) a „Jak Jane dostala košem“ (The Jilting of Jane), které se prvně objevily právě až v tomto souborném vydání.

The Artificial Silk Girl - Keun Irmgard, Kathie von Ankum
In 1931, a young writer named Irmgard Keun was inspired by Anita Loos s Gentlemen Prefer Blondes to describe pre-war Berlin and the age of cinematic glamour through the eyes of a woman. The resulting novel, The Artificial Silk Girl, became an acclaimed bestseller and a masterwork of German literature, in the tradition of Christopher Isherwood s Berlin Stories and Bertolt Brecht s Three Penny Opera. Like Isherwood and Brecht, Keun revealed the dark underside of Berlin s golden twenties with empathy and honesty. Unfortunately, a Nazi censorship board banned Keun s work in 1933 and destroyed all existing copies of The Artificial Silk Girl. Only one English translation was published, in Great Britain, before the book disappeared in the chaos of the ensuing war.

An Artificial History of Natural Intelligence - David W. Bates
A new history of human intelligence that argues that humans know themselves by knowing their machines. We imagine that we are both in control of and controlled by our bodiesâ ”autonomous and yet automatic. This entanglement, according to David W. Bates, emerged in the seventeenth century when humans first built and compared themselves with machines. Reading varied thinkers from Descartes to Kant to Turing, Bates reveals how time and time again technological developments offered new ways to imagine how the bodyâ ™s automaticity worked alongside the mindâ ™s autonomy. Tracing these evolving lines of thought, An Artificial History of Natural Intelligence offers a new theorization of the human as a being that is dependent on technology and produces itself as an artificial automaton without a natural, outside origin.
