Im ersten Teil seiner auf drei Bände angelegten Geschichte der Philosophie beschreibt Richard David Precht die Entwicklung des abendländischen Denkens von der Antike bis zum Mittelalter. Kenntnisreich und detailliert verknüpft er die Linien der großen Menschheitsfragen und verfolgt die Entfaltung der wichtigsten Ideen - von den Ursprungsgefilden der abendländischen Philosophie an der schönen Küste Kleinasiens bis in die Klöster und Studierstuben, die Kirchen und Machtzentren des Spätmittelalters.

Nichts, was die Arbeit anbelangt, ist heute mehr selbstverständlich. Das zweite Maschinenzeitalter selbstlernender Computer und Roboter revolutioniert unseren Arbeitsmarkt. Es definiert neu was "Arbeit" ist, und wozu wir eigentlich noch arbeiten. Schon seit einiger Zeit arbeiten wir in den westlichen Industrieländern nicht mehr, um unsere Existenz zu sichern. Wir arbeiten, um zur Erwerbsarbeitsgesellschaft dazuzugehören.

Dass unsere Welt sich gegenwärtig rasant verändert, weiß inzwischen jeder. Doch wie reagieren wir darauf? Die einen feiern die digitale Zukunft mit erschreckender Naivität und erwarten die Veränderungen wie das Wetter. Die Politik scheint den großen Umbruch nicht ernst zu nehmen. Andere warnen vor der Diktatur der Digitalkonzerne aus dem Silicon Valley. Und wieder andere möchten am liebsten die Decke über den Kopf ziehen und zurück in die Vergangenheit. Richard David Precht skizziert dagegen das Bild einer wünschenswerten Zukunft im digitalen Zeitalter.

Der bekannteste Philosoph Deutschlands über die Moral der Künstlichen Intelligenz. Während die drohende Klimakatastrophe und der enorme Ressourcenverbrauch der Menschheit die Lebensgrundlagen unseres Planeten zerstören, machen sich Informatiker und Ingenieure daran, die Entwicklung einer Künstlichen Intelligenz voranzutreiben, die alles das können soll, was Menschen auch können - nur vielfach "optimierter". Ausgehend von völlig falschen Annahmen soll den Maschinen sogar eine menschenähnliche Moral einprogrammiert werden.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 64
Dora ist mit ihrer kleinen Hündin aufs Land gezogen. Sie brauchte dringend einen Tapetenwechsel, mehr Freiheit, Raum zum Atmen. Aber ganz so idyllisch wie gedacht ist Bracken, das kleine Dorf im brandenburgischen Nirgendwo, nicht. In Doras Haus gibt es noch keine Möbel, der Garten gleicht einer Wildnis, und die Busverbindung in die Kreisstadt ist ein Witz. Vor allem aber verbirgt sich hinter der hohen Gartenmauer ein Nachbar, der mit kahlrasiertem Kopf und rechten Sprüchen sämtlichen Vorurteilen zu entsprechen scheint.

Gegen Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts machen sich zwei junge Deutsche an die Vermessung der Welt.

Der andere, der Mathematiker und Astronom Carl Friedrich Gauß, der sein Leben nicht ohne Frauen verbringen kann und doch in der Hochzeitsnacht aus dem Bett springt, um eine Formel zu notieren.

Währenddessen geht mit den Walen entlang der Küste British Columbias eine unheimliche Veränderung vor. Nichts von alledem scheint miteinander in Zusammenhang zu stehen. Doch Sigur Johanson, norwegischer Biologe und Schöngeist, glaubt nicht an Zufälle.

Artist, technologist, and philosopher James Bridle’s Ways of Being is a brilliant, searching exploration of different kinds of intelligence—plant, animal, human, artificial—and how they transform our understanding of humans’ place in the cosmos. What does it mean to be intelligent? Is it something unique to humans, or shared with other beings—beings of flesh, wood, stone, and silicon? The last few years have seen rapid advances in “artificial” intelligence.

If anyone could be considered a Russian counterpart to the infamous British double-agent Kim Philby, it was Oleg Gordievsky. The son of two KGB agents and the product of the best Soviet institutions, the savvy, sophisticated Gordievsky grew to see his nation's communism as both criminal and philistine. He took his first posting for Russian intelligence in 1968 and eventually became the Soviet Union's top man in London, but from 1973 on he was secretly working for MI6.

It’s 2006. After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life. Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men. Pretty soon she’s learning to "conjure" her desires with vision boards, flirtations, and even a daring jumbotron viewing party for her, ahem ... "divine center."

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Best-selling author Bryan Burrough recently made a shocking discovery: The small town of Temple, Texas, where he had grown up, had harbored a dark secret. One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.
