A Barrister's Tales: One Lawyer's Memoirs of His Journey Toward Faith Along a Trail Called Life
Remarkable, sardonic, and wry tales from the trials of life by an American lawyer on his journey toward faith. - A mountaintop standoff with desperado criminals in the 70s; - Dodging anti-war militants and police billy clubs during the Viet Nam War; - The Hunger Games dystopia of a legal Mega-Firm; - His encounters with gang-bangers and white collar monsters; and - The sometimes horrifying, funny, poignant, and downright implausible reality of a criminal defense practice. Above all, the astonishing miracles and angels in disguise that are why Clifford Nichols remains able to tell his Tales. You'll laugh and cry at the sardonic humor, wit and wisdom drawn from Nichols' life-and-death experiences through the decades. Most of all, by reading this memoir, you'll discover the truth that God is real and God is good. "Miracle" is just a word we give for God coming to our defense again and again in the trials of our life.

The word of Bob : an AI Minecraft Villager
It has been suggested that we may be living inside a computer simulation, the Matrix if you like. This book uses a sentient character in the game of Minecraft to illustrate how difficult it would be for us to admit we are in a simulation. The analogy examines the role of science and religion if we were in a simulation and asks the question of what could be our purpose if we were in a simulation. Piggy backing on the latest approaches to artificial intelligence, training neural networks on synthesized data to foster useful friendly AI systems, Bob provides us with a glimpse of the philosophical questions that are being raised in a world with AI.
