An accessible synthesis of ethical issues raised by artificial intelligence that moves beyond hype and nightmare scenarios to address concrete questions.Artificial intelligence powers Google''s search engine, enables Facebook to target advertising, and allows Alexa and Siri to do their jobs. AI is also behind self-driving cars, predictive policing, and autonomous weapons that can kill without human intervention. These and other AI applications raise complex ethical issues that are the subject of ongoing debate. This volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series offers an accessible synthesis of these issues. Written by a philosopher of technology, AI Ethics goes beyond the usual hype and nightmare scenarios to address concrete questions.Mark Coeckelbergh describes influential AI narratives, ranging from Frankenstein''s monster to transhumanism and the technological singularity. He surveys relevant philosophical discussions: questions about the fundamental differences between humans and machines and debates over the moral status of AI. He explains the technology of AI, describing different approaches and focusing on machine learning and data science. He offers an overview of important ethical issues, including privacy concerns, responsibility and the delegation of decision making, transparency, and bias as it arises at all stages of data science processes. He also considers the future of work in an AI economy. Finally, he analyzes a range of policy proposals and discusses challenges for policymakers. He argues for ethical practices that embed values in design, translate democratic values into practices and include a vision of the good life and the good society.

Madison Grant is largely forgotten today, but in the early 20th century, he was a leading environmentalist. He spearheaded the effort to save America's buffalo and majestic redwood trees. He might be considered a lion of progressivism if not for the fact that If he is known at all, it is due to his belief--shared by many, if not most, early 20th century progressives--that Darwinism logically, rationally, and morally entailed 'eugenics.' Grant firmly believed that if evolution were true, then it was obvious, if not self-evident, that the human species itself could be seen as manifesting evolutionary adaptations. Grant saw the different races and their respective (supposeedly unique) characteristics as illustrative of this viewpoint. He also felt it demonstrable that some of the 'races' were biologically inferior to others, at least in relation to being 'adapted' to 'modern society.' His book, "The Passing of the Great Race", expressed his deep concern that the biologically 'superior' (for example, northern Europeans) would be 'swamped' by the 'inferiors' (Slavs, 'negros', etc).This quote from the book will give the reader a glimpse into Madison Grant's mind: "Mistaken regard for what are believed to be divine laws and a sentimental belief in the sanctity of human life tend to prevent both the elimination of defective infants and the sterilization of such adults as are themselves of no value to the community. The laws of nature require the obliteration of the unfit and human life is valuable only when it is of use to the community or race."Far from being ostracized for such views, Grant was highly regarded, counting people like the progressive president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, as a friend. Not surprisingly, it is also reported that a certain man named Hitler would also resonate with Grant's conclusions.Having put it in these terms, it is perhaps not surprising at all that Madison Grant is not very well known today. He represents a blot on America and a blemish on a movement believed to be, and still construed as, champions of humanity.This edition is based on Grant's book as originally published in 1916. It contains the original charts and maps, and the maps are in full color.

The Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic by Hans Wehr is widely regarded as the foremost Arabic-English bilingual or translation dictionary and has particular usefulness for students of Modern Standard Arabic. The morphology and syntax of written Arabic is essentially the same in all Arabic countries. Unlike many other Arabic-English dictionaries, it arranges each Arabic word according to its consonantal root. Foreign words are listed in straight alphabetical order by first letter (in the Arabic script). Arabicized loanwords, if they can clearly fit under some root, are entered both ways, often with the root entry giving reference to the alphabetical listing. Volume 1 of 2: Arabic-English Dictionary : The Hans Wehr Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic. Fourth Edition.

El Doctor Frankl, psiquiatra y escritor, suele preguntar a sus pacientes aquejados de multiples padecimientos: Por que no se suicida usted? Y muchas veces, de las respuestas extrae una orientacion para la psicoterapia a aplicar: a este, lo que le ata a la vida son los hijos; al otro, un talento, una habilidad sin explotar; a un tercero, quizas, solo unos cuantos recuerdos que merece la pena rescatar del olvido. Tejer estas tenues hebras de vidas rotas en una urdimbre firme, coherente, significativa y responsable es el objeto con que se enfrenta la logoterapia. En esta obra, Viktor E. Frankl explica la experiencia que le llevo al descubrimiento de la logoterapia. Prisionero, durante mucho tiempo, en los desalmados campos de concentracion, el mismo sintio en su propio ser lo que significaba una existencia desnuda. Como pudo el que todo lo había perdido, que habia visto destruir todo lo que valia la pena, que padecio hambre, frio, brutalidades sin fin, que tantas veces estuvo a punto del exterminio, como pudo aceptar que la vida fuera digna de vivirla? El psiquiatra que personalmente ha tenido que enfrentarse a tales rigores merece que se le escuche, pues nadie como el para juzgar nuestra condicion humana sabia y compasivamente. Las palabras del doctor Frankl alcanzan un temple sorprendentemente esperanzador sobre la capacidad humana de trascender sus dificultades y descubrir la verdad conveniente y orientadora.

"This book shows how using business as a force for good, not just pursuing short-term profits, can be better for consumers, employees, local communities, the environment, and your company's long-term bottom line."--Tony Hsieh, New York Times bestselling author of Delivering Happiness and CEO, Zappos.com, Inc.B Corps are a global movement of more than 2,700 companies in 60 countries--like Patagonia, Ben & Jerry's, Kickstarter, Danone North America, and Eileen Fisher--that are using the power of business as a force for good.

Vi er i et nyt århundrede, der har sin helt egen stemme. En stemme, der opfordrer os til at strække vores bevidsthed for at kunne navigere klogere, mere agilt og meningsfyldt i den kompleksitet og de udfordringer, som vores arbejdspladser står overfor. Erhvervslivet er begyndt at erkende, at vi bliver nødt til at understøtte udviklingen af ledere og medarbejdere i stedet for at presse dem til at yde mere for mindre. Der er brug for ledere, som kan håndtere mere komplekse problemstillinger og en større global forbundethed, end menneskeheden tidligere har oplevet. Vi kan ikke længere nøjes med et smalt fokus og en snæver bevidsthed. Vi efterspørger mere sofistikeret ledelse og lederskab, men den type ledere dukker ikke bare op af sig selv. Vi er nødt til at udvikle dem. Men hvordan gør vi det? Det giver Jennifer Garvey Berger et bud på i denne bog, hvor hun kortlægger udviklingsrytmen i den menneskelige bevidsthed, meningsskabelse og evne til at rumme og håndtere kompleksitet. Hun anviser en vej til, hvordan vi kan understøtte denne rytme gennem en mere psykologisk rummelig arbejdsplads, hvor vi kan skabe fremragende resultater samtidig med, at mennesker stortrives. Når vi ikke har de rigtige kort at navigere efter, har vi en større chance for at fare vild i en verden fyldt med en uendelig mængde information, valgmuligheder og krav. Mange af os kan mærke presset både indefra og udefra. Det gælder på ledelsesgangene og hele vejen rundt i virksomhederne, hvilket antallet af stressramte danskere vidner om. Jennifers udgangspunkt er personlig udviklingsteori og Robert Kegans adult development-teori, der i disse år stormer ind på ledelsesgangene i hele verden. Denne teori er ikke en større-er-bedre-teori. Det er en større-er-større-teori, og forskellen mellem disse perspektiver er vigtig. Bogen anviser vejen til at skabe mere sofistikeret ledelse og lederskab, der åbner for større og mere inkluderende perspektiver, og den er en af de mest praktiske og tilgængelige bøger om emnet. De mange case-eksempler illustrerer denne bevidste udviklingsorienterede tilgang til os selv, andre omkring os og hele organisationsstrukturen. Det er en bevidst tilgang, hvor strækningen af vores iboende potentiale og understøttelsen af vores udviklingskant er nænsomt og ambitiøst vævet ind i hver dialog, hvert møde og hvert projekt gennem tre bevidsthedsvaner: 1) stil anderledes spørgsmål, 2) tag flere perspektiver og 3) se systemet. Bogen kan læses af alle men er specielt relevant for ledere, der ønsker at være foregangspersoner for at skabe de psykologisk rummelige arbejdspladser, hvor både resultater og mennesker stortrives. Men også coaches, HR-professionelle og andre med interesse for at understøtte både trivsel og resultater på jobbet, vil få glæde af bogen. Oversat fra engelsk af Hanne Lindblad, som også har skrevet forord til den danske udgave. ”Bogen favner mange af tidsåndens udfordringer fra et forfriskende perspektiv, der er fyldt med håb, og som skaber en nærmest øjeblikkelig udvidelse i antallet af de pixels, som vi ser verden igennem.” – Hanne Lindblad, fra bogens forord ”Folk har spurgt i årevis: ’Hvor finder jeg en grundig, praktisk og skarp gennemgang af forholdet mellem adult development-teori, udviklingsteori og coaching?’ Nu er der et svar.”– Robert Kegan, ph.d., professor på Harvard University Graduate School of Education
