Summary of Jono Bacon's People Powered
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I had the pleasure of working with a young man named Abayomi in 2007, who lived in a rural village in Africa and participated in the Ubuntu community via an Internet cafe. His passion for the community was not just that he could make an impact, but that his impact was amplified when combined with other people in the community. #2 I wanted to understand how the Internet cafe worked, and I knew that my responsibility as a community leader was to make sure that Abayomi got the most out of his hour there. #3 The scripture about communities dying was not entirely generational grumblings about the young guns...

Films from the Future
“Deftly shows how a seemingly frivolous film genre can guide us in shaping tomorrow’s world.” —Seth Shostak, senior astronomer, SETI Institute Artificial intelligence, gene manipulation, cloning, and interplanetary travel are all ideas that seemed like fairy tales but a few years ago. And now their possibilities are very much here. But are we ready to handle these advances? This book, by a physicist and expert on responsible technology development, reveals how science fiction movies can help us think about and prepare for the social consequences of technologies we don’t yet have, but that are coming faster than we imagine. Films from the Future looks at twelve movies that take us on a journey through the worlds of biological and genetic manipulation, human enhancement, cyber technologies, and nanotechnology. Readers will gain a broader understanding of the complex relationship between science and society. The movies mix old and new, and the familiar and unfamiliar, to provide a unique, entertaining, and ultimately transformative take on the power of emerging technologies, and the responsibilities they come with.
