    Abstract: "This book reminds us of what we have in common: the power to create a good life for ourselves and for others, no matter what the world has in store for us." -Michael J. Fox This book reveals that people with disabilities are the invisible force that has shaped history. They have been instrumental in the growth of freedom and birth of democracy. They have produced heavenly music and exquisite works of art. They have unveiled the scientific secrets of the universe. They are among our most popular comedians, poets, and storytellers. And at 1.2 billion, they are also the largest minority group in the world. Al Etmanski offers ten lessons we can all learn from people with disabilities, illustrated with short, funny, inspiring, and thought-provoking stories of one hundred individuals from twenty countries. Some are familiar, like Michael J. Fox, Greta Thunberg, Stephen Hawking, Helen Keller, Stevie Wonder, and Temple Grandin. Others deserve to be, like Evelyn Glennie, a virtuoso percussionist who is deaf-her mission is to teach the world to listen to improve communication and social cohesion. Or Aaron Philip, who has revolutionized the runway as the first disabled, trans woman of color to become a professional model. The time has come to recognize people with disabilities for who they really are: authoritative sources on creativity, love, sexuality, resistance, dealing with adversity, and living a good life

    Abstract: "Chad Ford reminds us that humanity lies within all of us, and although conflict is everywhere in today's world, we have the tools we need to overcome obstacles and to thrive. This is a fantastic, timely book that I highly recommend." -Steve Kerr, Head Coach, Golden State Warriors Knowing how to transform conflict is critical in both our personal and professional lives. Yet, by and large, we are terrible at it. The reason, says longtime mediator Chad Ford, is fear. When conflict comes, our instincts are to run or fight. To transform conflict, Ford says we need to turn toward the people we are in conflict with, put down our physical and emotional weapons, and really love them with the kind of love that leads us to treat others as fellow human beings, not as objects in our way. We have to open ourselves up with no guarantee that anyone on the other side will do the same. While this can feel even more dangerous than conflict itself, it allows us to see the humanity of others so clearly that their needs and desires matter to us as much as our own. Ford shows dangerous love in action through examples ranging from his work in the Middle East to a deeply moving story about reconciling with his father. He explains why we disconnect from people at the very time we need to be most connected and the predictable patterns of justification and escalation that ensue. Most importantly, he gives us a path to practice dangerous love in the conflicts that matter most to us

    Abstract: Der bekannte KI-Pionier Stuart Russell zeigt die Chancen und Risiken der Künstlichen Intelligenz auf Eine Superintelligenz als Zukunftsszenario - wie wir es schaffen, die Kontrolle zu behalten Eine realistische und kritische Betrachtung der KI mit anschaulichen Analogien und konkreten Lösungsvorschlägen In diesem bahnbrechenden Buch über die größte Frage bei der Entwicklung der KI zeigt der bekannte KI-Forscher Stuart Russell, wieso er sein eigenes Forschungsgebiet als Bedrohung für die menschliche Spezies ansieht und wie wir den aktuellen Kurs ändern können, bevor es zu spät ist. Niemand könnte die Chancen und Risiken dieser Zukunftstechnologie besser beurteilen als Stuart Russell, der seit mehr als einer Dekade an vorderster Front der KI-Forschung steht. Mit brillanten Analogien erklärt er, wie KI genau funktioniert und welche enormen Chancen sie mit sich bringt. Doch wir müssen sicherstellen, dass wir niemals die Kontrolle über diese Maschinen verlieren, die mächtiger sind als wir selbst. Russell zeigt auf, wie wir die schlimmsten Bedrohungen abwenden, indem wir die Grundlagen der KI neu denken, um zu garantieren, dass die Maschinen unsere Ziele verfolgen, nicht ihre. Fundiert, eindringlich und visionär ist Human Compatible ein Buch, das jeder lesen sollte, um die Zukunft zu verstehen, die schneller kommt, als wir denken. Über den Autor: Stuart Russell ist Professor der Informatik am Lehrstuhl Engineering der University of California, Berkeley. Er hat als stellvertretender Vorsitzender des Councils über Künstliche Intelligenz und Robotik des Weltwirtschaftsforums und Berater für die Rüstungskontrolle der Vereinten Nationen fungiert. Darüber hinaus ist er Fellow von Andrew Carnegie sowie der Association for Computing Machinery und der American Association for the Advancement of Science.

    Abstract: "Shows how humans have brought us to the brink and how humanity can find solutions. I urge people to read with humility and the daring to act." -Harpal Singh, former Chair, Save the Children, India, and former Vice Chair, Save the Children International In conversations with people all over the world, from government officials and business leaders to taxi drivers and schoolteachers, Blair Sheppard, global leader for strategy and leadership at PricewaterhouseCoopers, discovered they all had surprisingly similar concerns. In this prescient and pragmatic book, he and his team sum up these concerns in what they call the ADAPT framework: Asymmetry of wealth; Disruption wrought by the unexpected and often problematic consequences of technology; Age disparities-stresses caused by very young or very old populations in developed and emerging countries; Populism as a symptom of the breakdown in global and national consensus; and loss of Trust in the institutions that underpin and stabilize society. These concerns are in turn precipitating four crises: a crisis of prosperity, a crisis of technology, a crisis of institutional legitimacy, and a crisis of leadership. Sheppard and his team analyze the complex roots of these crises-but they also offer solutions, albeit often seemingly counterintuitive ones. For example, in an era of globalization, we need to place a much greater emphasis on developing self-sustaining local economies. And as technology permeates our lives, we need computer scientists and engineers conversant with sociology and psychology and poets who can code. The authors argue persuasively that we have only a decade to make headway on these problems. But if we tackle them now, thoughtfully, imaginatively, creatively, and energetically, in ten years we could be looking at a dawn instead of darkness

    Abstract: "What is impressive is not only how Winters builds a case for the urgency and need for bold, inclusive conversations but that she also gives specific strategies and competencies to turn her theory into practice." -Dr. Sheila Robinson, publisher and CEO, Diversity Woman Media Effective dialogue across different dimensions of diversity, such as race, gender, age, religion, or sexual orientation, fosters a sense of belonging and inclusion, which in turn leads to greater productivity, performance, and innovation. Whether in the workplace, faith communities, or educational settings, our differences can tear us apart rather than bring us together if we do not know how to communicate. Recognizing our collective responsibility to earnestly address our differences and increase understanding and empathy will not only enhance organizational goals but will also lead to a healthier, kinder, and more compassionate world. Award-winning diversity, equity, and inclusion consultant Mary-Frances Winters has been leading workshops on what she calls Bold, Inclusive Conversations for years. In this book she offers specific dialogue strategies to foster greater understanding on the following topics: • Recognizing the importance of creating equity and sharing power • Dealing with the "fragility" of dominant groups--their discomfort in engaging with historically subordinated groups • Addressing the exhaustion historically marginalized groups feel from constantly explaining their different lived experience • Exploring how to build trust and create psychologically safe spaces for dialogue This guide is comprehensive for anyone who wants to break down the barriers that separate us and facilitate discussions on potentially polarizing topics
