Summary of Stephen P. Williams's Blockchain
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Blockchain is software. It is as simple as that. It exists only as a string of code on computers, phones, and other devices. You join a chain by connecting your phone, computer, or other device to it via software and the Internet. #2 Blockchain is a digital ledger that can track the flow of goods, money, the provenance of artworks, and the health of the tundra. It is the basis of civilization, as we would never have developed markets or cities without ledgers. #3 The brilliance of the design is that the blockchain is replicated on every one of these nodes. If someone were to change the information in a block, they would also have to change it on every separate node in the chain. #4 The Assemblage, a coworking space and positive cult collective in New York City, sponsored a panel discussion titled AI, Blockchain, and the New Matriarchy.

Theodosius
Emperor Theodosius (379-95) was the last Roman emperor to rule a unified empire of East and West and his reign represents a turning point in the policies and fortunes of the Late Roman Empire. In this imperial biography, Stephen Williams and Gerry Friell bring together literary, archaeological and numismatic evidence concerning this Roman emperor, studying his military and political struggles, which he fought heroically but ultimately in vain. Summoned from retirement to the throne after the disastrous Roman defeat by the Goths at Adrianople, Theodosius was called on to rebuild the armies and put the shattered state back together. He instituted a new policy towards the barbarians, in which d...
Lighting the World
1.2 billion people on Earth still don't have electricity. Even where cell phones are now common, like sub-Saharan Africa and parts of India, villagers still walk miles to charge them. But new large-scale, sustainable solutions will not only usher in a new era of light, but be an important first step in lifting people from poverty and putting them on a road of sustainable economic development. Also, a unique, transforming opportunity for Western thinkers and practitioners will be created. These areas have largely skipped the analog stage of power development, and have moved straight from the middle ages to the digital age. They are not encumbered by existing infrastructure, dependence on foss...
The Ape that Understood the Universe
The Ape that Understood the Universe is the story of the strangest animal in the world: the human animal. It opens with a question: How would an alien scientist view our species? What would it make of our sex differences, our sexual behavior, our altruistic tendencies, and our culture? The book tackles these issues by drawing on two major schools of thought: evolutionary psychology and cultural evolutionary theory. The guiding assumption is that humans are animals, and that like all animals, we evolved to pass on our genes. At some point, however, we also evolved the capacity for culture - and from that moment, culture began evolving in its own right. This transformed us from a mere ape into an ape capable of reshaping the planet, travelling to other worlds, and understanding the vast universe of which we're but a tiny, fleeting fragment. Featuring a new foreword by Michael Shermer.
