Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Modern computing, telecommunications, and search engine technologies have made information both easily and instantaneously available. As a result, people often lose sight of the need to critically review, scrutinize, and verify the truth of the information they receive using them. Paradoxically, it is precisely because of these and other technological advancements that it has become increasingly necessary to determine the veracity of the information we receive.These newly emergent technologies have created a perfect storm: They are being used to selectively deliver cleverly chosen fragments of information to varied target audiences with enormous precision. This has created a highly orchestrated barrage of factual information combined with partial truths and veiled propaganda that now circulates and proliferates through a variety of Internet-based channels with near-miraculous efficiency. All too often, truth is now equated with how many people believe something rather than with the more fundamental principles that underlie what truth really is. This has made the difference between the truth and falsehoods progressively more difficult for ordinary people to tease out, disentangle, and recognize.Accordingly, individuals must now equip themselves with their own approaches to assess the truth of the information they receive. To do this successfully, they must return to basics to effectively scrutinize what information is credible and what is not-and why. Hence, there is a need to highlight what truth is, what it means, and how ordinary people can assess it in their everyday lives. This is crucial undertaking if we are to be able to assess the information that underpins our thoughts, knowledge, understandings, and beliefs.Happily, there is a path to prevail: Truth always depends on two fundamental precepts-facts and their context. This book explains how you can sort through the overwhelming volume of information we are all faced with to reject falsehoods and misrepresentations and uncover truth together with its meaning, value, and utility.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Recent advances in genomics and genetic engineering have led to a plethora of new insights and discoveries about human history, evolution, and migrations, as well as to the unmasking of fundamental information about people's unique traits - including their likenesses and differences, as well as their varying susceptibilities to diseases. Nowhere has this been more striking than in the field of infectious diseases, where human genomic differences can now be leveraged to manufacture transmissible microorganisms that can infect people selectively while leaving other people unscathed. The result is a rapidly increasing potential for the precise targeting of biological warfare agents against both adversaries and ordinary citizens alike. All that is necessary is to identify systematic differences in the genomic make-up of different people and societal subgroups to develop microbiologic agents that will target their unique genomic characteristics selectively. In the wrong hands, such capabilities can be used to control both the attitudes and behaviors of entire human populations, and to subjugate and conquer them. These new gene editing techniques mean that biological warfare agents have a new capability that permits person-specific viruses to be created and dispersed to find their 'targets.' Moreover, those who control the libraries of human genomic information can selectively target anyone, anywhere, anytime, for any reason - all without risk of traceability, accountability, or culpability. As early attempts to humanize viruses such as SARS (SARS CoV-1), MERS (MERS-CoV), and COVID-19 (SARS CoV-2) have demonstrated, guarding against the use of weaponized viruses for such malign control of individuals and even whole societies will be the next great challenge faced by humanity.…
