In classrooms across the world, teachers demonstrate resilience and ingenuity as they dedicate their lives to improving those of future generations. Featuring a range of first-hand accounts, James Patterson explores the creative and noble work of teachers across America. While the future may be in doubt, one thing is certain.

Thank You, Teachers

A provocative rethinking of the intersection of death, technology, and disability, for a better life. We are all cyborgs, relying on technology—whether Alexa, a pacemaker, or a titanium knee—for our quotidian existence. In our deep connection to a technological world—from robots to augmented and virtual realities, metaverses and gaming—Candi Cann sees an opportunity, and good reason, to question our ideas about accessibility and inclusion. In augmented, she asks us to reconsider traditional notions of biology and death. Having relied on hearing aids from the age of four, Cann uses her experience to challenge readers to reconsider their assumptions about technologies and their role in life—and death. She also focuses on what it means that most of us are living longer with the intervention of medical technologies—and how a better understanding of our relationship to technology will grant us greater control as we age. Drawing on her life experience in Asia, the author also explains how cultural and religious views of machines and artificial intelligence vary globally—in particular, how a Western fear of machines contrasts with an animistic worldview that can see machines as conduits of care for others, embedding spiritual possibilities.
