Na severním pólu Pluta stojí záhada: obrovský kruh vztyčených ledových bloků, vystavěných na způsob pozemského Stonehenge – jenže desetkrát větších, osaměle zářících na samotné výspě Sluneční soustavy. Co je to? Kdo je tam postavil? Tajemství se patrně skrývá v chaotických desetiletích marsovské revoluce, ve ztracených vzpomínkách těch, kdo žijí celá staletí. Mohla tudy letět jistá kosmická loď, už desítky let zapomenutá – pokud na ní přežila posádka. A pokud tato loď vůbec kdy existovala...

Brilantní román z blízké budoucnosti o klimatických změnách. Tato nová organizace byla založena v roce 2025 a její cíl byl jednoduchý: hájit zájmy budoucích generací a chránit všechny živé tvory, současné i budoucí. Brzy se stala známou jako Ministerstvo pro budoucnost a toto je její příběh… Od legendárního autora sci-fi Kima Stanleyho Robinsona přichází vize změny klimatu, jakou si dosud nikdo nedokázal představit. Kniha Ministerstvo pro budoucnost, vyprávěná výhradně prostřednictvím fiktivních očitých svědectví, je mistrovským dílem představivosti, příběhem o tom, jak nás všechny klimatické změny ovlivní v příštích desetiletích. Jejím dějištěm není pustý postapokalyptický svět, ale budoucnost, která je téměř před námi - a v níž možná právě překonáme mimořádné výzvy, kterým čelíme. Je to román bezprostřední i působivý, stejně zoufalý jako plný naděje, a je to jedna z nejsilnějších a nejoriginálnějších knih o klimatických změnách, které kdy byly napsány.

Ve čtrnáctém století postihne lidstvo jedna z největších pohrom historie - začíná řádit černá smrt. Z dějepisu víme, že zahubila třetinu evropského obyvatelstva. Ale co kdyby morová rána vyhladila takřka celou evropskou populaci? Jak by se změnil náš svět? V Rocích rýže a soli se nám otevírá pohled na události, které se mohly stát, kdyby... na dějiny táhnoucí se přes několik staletí, na dějiny, v nichž se rodí a zanikají lidské rody a celé národy, na dějiny, v nichž má své místo strašlivý hladomor i báječné vynálezy. Jsou to roky rýže a soli. Ocitáme se ve světě, kde do Nového světa připluje přes Tichý oceán první loď z Číny a kolonizace se šíří ze západu na východ. Ve světě, kde průmyslovou revoluci nastartují ti největší vědečtí myslitelé původem z Indie. Kde buddhismus a islám jsou nejvlivnějšími náboženstvími s největším počtem věřících, a křesťanství je pouze nevýznamnou historickou epizodou. K. S. Robinson nám očima vojáků a králů, průzkumníků a filozofů, otroků a učenců předkládá nesmírně bohatou mozaiku alternativního vývoje lidského pokolení. Přepisuje historii a zároveň rozebírá nejhlubší otázky způsobem, jakým je toho schopen pouze autor jeho erudice a kalibru. Od stepí střední Asie po břehy západní polokoule, od doby Akbarovy říše po současnost a dál se před námi odvíjí ohromující příběh vzniku zcela nového světa.

Kniha - 368 stran, anglicky, Brožovaná bez přebalu matná In a groundbreaking blend of science and imagination, the former president of Google China and a leading writer of speculative fiction join forces to answer an urgent question: How will artificial intelligence change our world over the next twenty years? AI will be the defining issue of the twenty-first century, but many people know little about it apart from visions of dystopian robots or flying cars. Though the term has been around for half a century, it is only now, Kai-Fu Lee argues, that AI is poised to upend our society, just as the arrival of technologies like electricity and smart phones did before it. In the past five years, AI has shown it can learn games like chess in mere hours-and beat humans every time. AI has surpassed humans in speech and object recognition, even outperforming radiologists in diagnosing lung cancer. AI is at a tipping point. What comes next? Within two decades, aspects of...

A hugely powerful chronicle of lives lived on the edge' - Sunday Times, Books of the YearIn the tradition of Conrad's Heart of Darkness, an immensely powerful historical novel about the first encounters between Danish colonists and Greenlanders in the early eighteenth century, of brutal clashes between priests and pagans and the forces that drive each individual towards darkness or light. 1728: The Danish King Fredrik IV sends a governor to Greenland to establish a colony, in the hopes of exploiting the country's allegedly vast natural resources. A few merchants, a barber-surgeon, two trainee priests, a blacksmith, some carpenters and soldiers and a dozen hastily married couples go with him.The missionary priest Hans Egede has already been in Greenland for several years when the new colonists arrive. He has established a mission there, but the converts are few. Among those most hostile to Egede is the shaman Aappaluttoq, whose own son was taken by the priest and raised in the Christian faith as his own.Thus the great rift between two men, and two ways of life, is born. The newly arrived couples - men and women plucked from prison - quickly sink into a life of almost complete dissolution, and soon unsanitary conditions, illness and death bring the colony to its knees. Through the starvation and the epidemics that beset the colony, Egede remains steadfast in his determination - willing to sacrifice even those he loves for the sake of his mission.Translated from Danish by Martin Aitken, Kim Leine's The Colony of Good Hope explores what happens when two cultures confront one another. In a distant colony, under the harshest conditions, the overwhelming forces of nature meet the vices of man.

From the bestselling authors and hosts of 'The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe' a high-tech roadmap of the future in their beloved voice, cracking open both the follies of futurists past and how technology will profoundly change our world moving forward. Our predictions of the future are a wild fantasy, inextricably linked to our present hopes and fears, biases and ignorance. Whether they be the outlandish leaps predicted in the 1920s, like multi-purpose utility belts with climate control capabilities and planes the size of luxury cruise ships, or the forecasts of the '60s, which didn't anticipate the sexual revolution or women's liberation, the path to the present is littered with failed predictions and incorrect estimations.The best we can do is try to absorb from futurism's checkered past, perhaps learning to do a little better.In The Skeptics' Guide To The Future, Steven Novella and his co-authors build upon the work of futurists of the past by examining what they got right, what they got wrong, and how they came to those conclusions. By exploring the pitfalls of each era, they give their own speculations about the distant future, transformed by unbelievable technology ranging from genetic manipulation to artificial intelligence and quantum computing. Applying their trademark skepticism, they carefully extrapolate upon each scientific development, leaving no stone unturned as they lay out a vision for the future of tomorrow.

10 June 1907, Peking. Five cars set off in a desperate race across two continents on the verge of revolution. An Italian prince and his chauffeur, a French racing driver, a conman and various journalists battle over steep mountain ranges and across the arid vastness of the Gobi Desert. The contestants need teams of helpers to drag their primitive cars up narrow gorges, lift them over rough terrain and float them across rivers. Petrol is almost impossible to find, there are barely any roads, armed bandits and wolves lurk in the forests. Updates on their progress, sent by telegram, are eagerly devoured by millions in one of the first ever global news stories. Their destination: Paris. More than its many adventures, the Peking-to-Paris provided the impetus for profound change. The world of 1907 is poised between the old and the new: communist regimes will replace imperial ones in China and Russia; the telegraph is transforming modern communication and the car will soon displace the horse. In this book bestselling author Kassia St Clair traces the fascinating stories of two interlocking races - setting the derring-do (and sometimes cheating) of one of the world's first car races against the backdrop of a larger geopolitical and technological rush to the future, as the rivalry grows between countries and empires, building up to the cataclysmic event that changed everything - the First World War. The Race to the Future is the incredible true story of the quest against the odds that shaped the world we live in today.
