The Technology Trap by Carl Benedikt Frey Pdf

From the Industrial Revolution to the age of artificial intelligence, Carl Benedikt Frey offers a sweeping account of the history of technological progress and how it has radically shifted the distribution of economic and political power among society's members. As the author shows, the Industrial Revolution created unprecedented wealth and prosperity over the long run, but the immediate consequences of mechanization were devastating for large swaths of the population.These trends broadly mirror those in our current age of automation. But, just as the Industrial Revolution eventually brought about extraordinary benefits for society, artificial intelligence systems have the potential to do the same. Benedikt Frey demonstrates that in the midst of another technological revolution, the lessons of the past can help us to more effectively face the present. --From publisher description.

Soul Trap by Janet M. Woods Pdf

Soul Trap by Janet M. Woods Following an almost fatal car crash, George, a sixty-nine-year-old psychiatrist, is convalescing at his son’s home in the English countryside. Being very much a ‘city boy’ at heart, George is dreading the boredom he foresees as inevitable in such rural surroundings. In the event, boredom turns out to be the least of his worries. Initially, he fears that the strange happenings manifesting around him may be the result of his head injuries, but finally has to concede that the weird and terrifying phenomena may actually have a ‘supernatural’ origin. As a life-long sceptic and realist, this is not a welcome conclusion! But, struggle against that acceptance as he may, it becomes apparent that there is only one way to fight the Paranormal – with Paranormal weapons on a Paranormal battleground. With the lives and welfare of his family at stake, and generations of souls, trapped in the surrounding area, unable to complete their after-life journeys, it is time to rally all the forces at his disposal. The evil of the Soul Trap must be banished forever.
