How AI Ate the World - Chris Stokel-Walker

A People's History of the World - Chris Harman
In this monumental book, Chris Harman achieves the impossible—a gripping history of the planet from the perspective of the struggling people throughout the ages.From earliest human society to the Holy Roman Empire, from the Middle Ages to the Enlightenment, from the Industrial Revolution to the end of the millennium, Chris Harman provides a brilliant and comprehensive history of the planet. Eschewing the standard histories of ‘Great Men,’ of dates and kings, Harman offers a groundbreaking counter-history, a breathtaking sweep across the centuries in the tradition of ‘history from below.’ In a fiery narrative, he shows how ordinary men and women were involved in creating and changing society and how conflict between classes was often at the core of these changes. While many pundits see the victory of capitalism as now safely secured, Harman explains the rise and fall of societies and civilizations throughout the ages and demonstrates that history never ends. This magisterial study is essential reading for anyone interested in how society has changed and developed and the possibilities for further radical change.

Tato biografie v plném světle odhaluje lidské i vědecké aspekty jejího života. Popisuje její bouřlivý osobní příběh v době sociálních zvratů a zápas o uznání v časech, kdy byly ženy-vědkyně téměř neznámým pojmem. Marie Curie zemřela v roce 1934, když podlehla aplastické anémii, která se zřejmě rozvinula v souvislosti s jejím vědeckým bádáním. Její práce nejen že přispěla k našemu pochopení struktury atomu, a tím také k samotné fyzikální podstatě světa, ale také položila základy moderních medicínských inovací, jako například radioterapie. Marie Curie nepřestává inspirovat miliony lidí celého světa.

Marie Curie - Richard Gunderman
Marie Curie byla první ženou, která obdržela Nobelovu cenu, a jedinou ženou, která tuto poctu získala dvakrát, a současně jediným člověkem, jenž ji obdržel ve dvou různých vědeckých oborech. Tato biografie v plném světle odhaluje lidské i vědecké aspekty jejího života. Popisuje její bouřlivý osobní příběh v době sociálních zvratů a zápas o uznání v časech, kdy byly ženy-vědkyně téměř neznámým pojmem. Marie Curie zemřela v roce 1934, když podlehla aplastické anémii, která se zřejmě rozvinula v souvislosti s jejím vědeckým bádáním. Její práce nejen že přispěla k našemu pochopení struktury atomu, a tím také k samotné fyzikální podstatě světa, ale také položila základy moderních medicínských inovací, jako například radioterapie. Marie Curie nepřestává inspirovat miliony lidí celého světa.
