Rage Inside the Machine
We live in a world increasingly ruled by technology; we seem as governed by technology as we do by laws and regulations. Frighteningly often, the influence of technology in and on our lives goes completely unchallenged by citizens and governments. We comfort ourselves with the soothing refrain that technology has no morals and can display no prejudice, and it's only the users of technology who distort certain aspects of it. But is this statement actually true? Dr Robert Smith thinks it is dangerously untrue in the modern era. Having worked in the field of artificial intelligence for over 30 years, Smith reveals the mounting evidence that the mechanical actors in our lives do indeed have, or ...
Running with Cannibals
What's it like to reach out and touch history in the moment, to peel back the layers of hyperbole and political deception for yourself as a simple soldier? Try the Philippine-American War, sometimes referred to as "the first Vietnam" (1899-1902). You might find that "desertion" really means conversion to a noble cause and "enlisting" is just another form of surrender... Three American infantrymen in the last months of major hostilities, the Filipinos all but beaten. Each man is quietly running from a prior life. One, a young corporal, naïve and inexperienced, is hiding from a gallows in Pennsylvania. Another is a disillusioned Catholic priest, running from God and himself. The third is a pr...

Caledonia Dreamin'
Glaikit, mockit, droukit, drouthy, couthy, scunner, thrawn - the Scots language is rich with words too gallus not to glory in, dialect terms that deserve better than to be boxed away as precious oddities. Here we've collected some of the strangest writers of Scottish descent to bring these terms to life - that's Scottish by heritage or residence, adoption or initiation...
The Cure
After debuting in 1978 with a brash single pulled from the pages of Camus, the Cure, led by Robert Smith, recorded a series of brooding albums, drawing the world's attention to goth rock. But they resisted categorization, and subsequent albums attracted new fans worldwide. Then, with the grand and somber Disintegration, they achieved global domination. This essential keepsake tells the story of the Cure--from the angular riffs of "Boys Don't Cry" and "A Forest," through the perfect simplicity of "Lovesong" and "Friday I'm in Love," to headlining some of the world's biggest music festivals--in beautiful, eye-catching color.
