Sex, Drugs & Rock n Roll
How can wordless collections of sounds send shivers down our spines and tickle ancient parts of our brains we share with reptiles? How did a chemist's quest to create a drug to ease the pain of childbirth result in the creation of LSD? Why do goats partake in oral sex, and how can a horse (or even a table) make us weak in the knees? And how on earth could the revered 'father of anatomy' not know where the clitoris was? From tortoiseshell condoms to superstar athletes on hallucinogens, these burning questions are explored and dissected, mixed with insights from some of the world's bravest, cleverest and downright weirdest scientist experimenting on the edge - and themselves. It's a sharp shocker, an eye opener, asking the big questions about what it means to be human, about consciousness and happiness. It'll pull you in and gross out. Exuberantly curious and shamelessly exuberant, Guerilla Science's Zoe Cormier reinvents popular science for a new generation by breaking all the rules. Let's rock.
Circular Economy
Every leaf that falls from a tree becomes part of a new circle. In non-human ecosystems, everything is re-used or re-purposed. The natural world is the perfect circular system. Why is the same not true for humankind? Most of the things we possess will ultimately not be used for a long period of time. The current take-make-waste approach is a given fact of our present economy that we have perfected since the industrial revolution. The editors Dr Guenther Dobrauz-Saldapenna and Nicolas Huras believe that we urgently need to change our ways of producing, consuming and living. It is time to seriously consider circular economy as an alternative model. This book brings together thinkers and innovators from academia as well as business who share their ideas. Does it deliver answers to all our challenges? Probably not, but it is a great place to start. The future must be circular and decentralized! This book was printed according to the Cradle to Cradle® principle. The dust jacket contains flower seeds and can be planted in the ground: watch the flowers grow!

Now she must complete one final assignment, and this time Eva can't do it alone: she needs her daughter's help.
False Feathers
Since human beings have been writing it seems there has been plagiarism. It is not something that sprouted with the advent of the Internet. Teachers have been struggling for years in countries all over the globe to find good methods for dealing with the problem of plagiarizing students. How do we spot plagiarism?

Neo. Life
There are a lot of smart scientists working on ways to improve our species. Some are working within medical communities, trying to cure cancers and prevent inheritable diseases. Others are working in academic environments, doing research on how to make us smarter, live longer, or be better adapted for space travel. Still others are hacking away in secretive government labs far from the public eye. Right in plain sight are hundreds of community biolabs operating all around the world.Where will all these changes take us? Some may think or hope that the scientific elite in Boston or London will be making hard choices on behalf of the planet. But the future of Homo sapiens will be determined by ...
Alcohol in Space
The production and consumption of alcohol has played a significant role in human society since the dawn of civilization. Will this still hold true when humanity is exploring and settling the outer reaches of space?

Covering the long history of alcohol in human society, how alcohol has been addressed in science fiction, and space agriculture technologies, this book investigates a broad sweep of questions that bear on the manufacture of alcohol in space, as well as human space settlement in general.
Exploring the Mind of God : How Technology Guided by Spirituality Can Lead to Happiness
About the Book: This book is an attempt to show how technology guided by spirituality can lead to happiness, and in the process, it may lead to the understanding of the Universal Consciousness or the Mind of God. The book is divided into three sections. The first section deals with how to make the mind powerful to gain inner peace. A happy and contented mind then sees the world in a different light. The second section dwells on how to improve the environment through technology, so it becomes liveable and sustainable. And the last section is about exploring space — the last frontier which can help in joining the individual with universal consciousness and understanding the mind of God. The ...
Ethics of Life: freedom & diversity
A poetic and philosophical meditation on life and the importance of unusualness and diversity of life-forms, ideas, cultures, peoples and species. The book explores key themes of AI, freedom and free will, cooperation and competition, sacrifice and suffering. I have also created over 50 algorithmic artworks for the book. Life-forms are extraordinarily useful and unusual engines that make use of free energy to create complexity and information. We have many good reasons to value and protect the maximal compatible diversity of life-forms and species.
