A young woman is brought up in the jungle by artificial intelligence - Never Let Me Go meets Lord of the Flies

Pachico Julianne: Jungle House

Jungle House

'A brilliant AI mystery' the Bookseller

Acclaimed author Jade Song (Chlorine) returns with her latest literary exploration: a lyrical, poignant, and heartfelt novel about the meaning of love, friendship, debt, depression, and death in New York City—a coming-of-age for a new generation, in the vein of Sally Rooney and Ottessa Moshfegh. For as far back as she can remember, Vicky has been fascinated and obsessed with death as the only inevitable thing in life. From living above a Chinatown funeral parlor to working at a celebrity start-up for bespoke urns, she has surrounded herself with death—in her home, in her work, and in her ever-growing collection of zhizha, paper creations meant to be burned for the dead, adorning the walls of her apartment. Yet, though living in Manhattan and working her dream job is all she ever wanted, she still struggles to have meaningful connections—or find any meaning at all—in her life. Too often she spends the day in bed, only drawn out from time to time by her best (and only) friend, Jen.That changes when a dating app leads her into a throuple with an artist and a labor organizer, who offer exactly the kind of love she needs. For some time, it’s perfect, but no one understands better than Vicky that all things must end. As doubts grow over the love in her life, her friendship with Jen, and her professional success, the oddly comforting abstraction of death starts becoming something else altogether. With everything beginning to feel hollow and temporary, Vicky must decide how to keep moving forward. To try and hold on to what she has, or to once again do what she does best: destroy.

I Love You Don't Die

A sharp history of journalism's digital unraveling in the age of algorithms. In the past three decades, the battle between big tech and big journalism has reshaped how we consume the news. Jason Whittaker delves into how tech giants outmaneuvered traditional media companies, siphoning off advertising revenue and audience attention. As journalism struggled to adapt, social media platforms evolved from utopian public spaces into breeding grounds for misinformation and fake news, eroding public trust. The influence of billionaires further complicated the digital ecosystem, swaying public opinion and exercising direct political power, of which previous media moguls could only dream. More recently, AI has begun to revolutionize content creation, distribution, and consumption. Overall, this thirty-year period has witnessed a tangled mix of progress, contention, and disinformation. Incorporating stories about The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Los Angeles Times, Bloomberg, and many other media outlets from around the world, and discussing key figures and companies in big tech and AI like Facebook/Meta, Cambridge Analytica, Google, Microsoft, Twitter/X and Elon Musk, Edward Snowden, Jakob Uszkoreit, OpenAI, ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and more, Whittaker provides an incisive examination of the frequently combative relations of these two industries and the uncertain future of the news in the digital age.

A critical introduction to the psychiatric technologies of the future Artificial intelligence (AI) promises to transform nearly every area of modern life, and psychiatry is no exception. The field faces the mounting crisises in diagnostic inaccuracy, treatment stagnation, and persistent failures in suicide prevention, while traditional approaches struggle to keep pace with patient needs. AI and neuroscience offer a new path forward, pointing toward a future where mental health care is grounded in objective data, individualized predictions, and biologically informed treatments. Decoding Despair provides a cutting-edge look at these emerging scientific possibilities and the long-standing norms they may replace. Beginning with an examination of psychiatry's current challenges, it moves toward a present where AI-powered tools are beginning to reshape diagnostics, treatment selection, and drug development. The book offers readers a deeper understanding of mental health as both a scientific field and a lived human experience, while igniting an essential conversation about the transformative potential of precision psychiatry and technology. Decoding Despair readers will also find: <ul> <li>Exploration of the patient's journey from first symptoms to being prescribed medication</li> <li>Deep dive into the healthcare system and an understanding of the connections between stakeholders</li> <li>Clear explanations of how AI models work and how they can be practically applied to solving issues in mental health</li> <li>Deep introduction into the world of data and the different models of data acquisition necessary for building AI solutions</li> <li>Analysis of the potential innovations that could come first and the conditions necessary for them to occur</li> </ul> &nbsp; Decoding Despair is ideal for professionals and innovators building the future of psychiatry-as well as anyone seeking to understand their own mental health and the technological breakthroughs poised to reshape this critical field of care.

Insurability of Emerging Risks

This open access book assesses whether European data regulation can be amended in light of contemporary technological developments. In an era when data powers our daily lives, economies and societies, data regulation is essential. However, European data regulation is still premised on concepts and foundations that were developed more than 50 years ago. The book offers an in-depth exploration of the European data regulatory landscape, from its historical roots to the challenges posed by new technological advancements. Through a detailed legal and technical analysis, it explores key data categories - such as anonymised, pseudonymised, aggregated, sensitive data, and metadata - highlighting their fluid and changing nature and the growing possibilities for transitioning between them. By identifying regulatory tensions and challenges arising from various technologies, such as AI, Big Data, and quantum computing, the book offers policymakers, legal scholars, computer scientists and data protection experts different perspectives on how to reshape future privacy and data protection legislation in a rapidly advancing technological world. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

The Gods Must Be Crazy!

Two civilizations are building the same technology through entirely different logics. One is gilded and theatrical. The other is turbid and relentless. Most investors are watching only one river.
Dragon vs. Eagle is a contrarian strategic forecast that exposes how China's autonomous vehicle manufacturing machine-led by BYD, XPeng, Huawei, and a new generation of pure-play operators like WeRide and Pony.ai-is quietly overtaking the American robotaxi narrative built around Waymo, Tesla, and a $1.5 trillion valuation illusion.
Using the proprietary M¿y¿ Meter, this autonomous vehicle investment guide reveals the staggering per-vehicle valuation gap: Waymo at ~$50 million per vehicle versus WeRide at ~$3 million. The Dinosaur Meter scores the fragility of legacy automakers-Ford (83.4), Volkswagen (79.1), Toyota (70.6)-against a refinancing wall that the capital markets have not yet priced.
At the heart of the analysis is the 'Industrialiser' archetype: how China's state-directed electric vehicle supply chain has driven hardware costs from $150,000 to $150, producing a massive 'Data Monsoon' from BYD's God's Eye ADAS system-now generating 150 million kilometers of driving data per day across 21+ million vehicles. This is not a car story. It is the birth of the first mass-produced embodied intelligence platform.
The book maps the Interdependency Web connecting five nodes-autonomous mobility, logistics, robotics, distributed energy, and financial data rails-and provides a complete investment framework: the Quarter-Kelly position-sizing model, the Six Temples taxonomy, and Three Monsoons scenario planning for 2030-2035.
For investors navigating the US-China technology war, tariff policy, semiconductor export controls, and the LiDAR cost curve revolution, Dragon vs. Eagle delivers what no other book does: the boatman's manual for reading both rivers at once.
From the author of The Gods Must Be Crazy II: A Rooseveltian Renaissance for Trump 2.0, with three decades of Fortune 10 strategic consulting across 40+ countries, Six Sigma Master Black Belt and TOGAF9 credentials, and field expertise spanning the geopolitical risk landscape from BIG4 boardrooms to the ancient ritual traditions of Kerala.

Future of Business and Finance

The rise of the Internet, social media, mobile technology, IoT, artificial intelligence (AI), and Web3 has fundamentally transformed how brands engage with consumers—enabling smarter marketing capabilities, personalized user interactions, and exponential growth in revenue, influence, and data value. This book introduces the concept of Brand Digital Intelligence, a two-step framework that helps brands thrive in the digital age through digital transformation and intelligent marketing. Structured around a digital transformation roadmap, the book explores how organizations can build robust digital infrastructure, foster active user participation, and turn consumers into long-term value contributors. 
Key topics include marketing innovation, platform business models, consumer journey design, online communities, smart stores, mobile applications, AI-powered marketing, and decentralized brand strategies enabled by Web3. The book calls for a paradigm shift from traditional campaign-based marketing to intelligent, data-driven ecosystems, where private domains, users, and data become core strategic assets—powered by algorithmic decision-making and compounding flywheel effects that drive sustained growth and engagement. Extending this evolution, the book illustrates how AI-driven brand ecosystems in the Web2 era naturally progress toward autonomous, community-driven organizations in the Web3 world, enabled by tokenized incentives, digital ownership, and co-created value. 
Combining strategic frameworks, real-world case studies, and actionable insights, this book is an essential guide for marketing professionals, technology leaders, entrepreneurs, and investors seeking to master the next frontier of AI and Web3-powered brand transformation.

Navigating the Transformation in the AI and Web3 Era

Brand Intelligence

Pull up a chair. If you've found your way to these pages, there is a good chance you are carrying a quiet, heavy question in your heart. Perhaps it visits you during that familiar "Sunday Night Dread," when the hum in your belly tells you your nervous system is bracing for another week of Outlook invites and digital noise. You've played by the script: you have the title, the salary, and the glowing LinkedIn recommendations. Yet, you feel like a "Company Persona"- always consuming but never quite full.We are standing at a threshold unlike any other in human history. We are being told that Artificial Intelligence is coming for our "transactional" work-the coding, the calculating, and the organizing. It is a world that has asked us to function like machines for decades, and many of us have tried to oblige. But here is the radical truth this book invites you to consider: the antidote to AI anxiety is not upskilling in technology, but "down-skilling" into your essential humanity.This book is not a manual on how to outrun the algorithm. You cannot win a race against a machine that doesn't need to sleep or eat. Instead, this is a guide for an "Identity Detox." We are going to lovingly separate your deep, eternal self from the temporary role you play at work. We are going to acknowledge that your job title-no matter how impressive-is not your soul.Throughout our time together, we will explore:The Shift from Processing to Presencing: Moving away from the reactive survival mode of the "Speedy Lung" and into a state where you can sense the future that actually wants to emerge.
The "Spark Joy" Audit: Using an essentialist mindset to delegate "Robot Work" to the machines, freeing you to inhabit your true Zone of Genius.
The Wisdom of the Void: Learning how to trust the space between "trapeze bars"-that mist-filled gap where you have let go of the old identity but have not yet grasped the new.
Right Livelihood 2.0: Finding your Ikigai-the intersection of what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for in a world of wisdom and synthesis.
The Bodhisattva in the Boardroom: Discovering how to be "in the system, but not of it," using non-attachment as the ultimate career superpower.

You are not a broken machine that needs constant optimization. You are Naturally Creative, Resourceful, and Whole. This journey is about "Detoxing" your professional identity until you are no longer trying to be a better robot, but a more complete human.The world doesn't need more busy people; it needs more people who have come alive. So, let the dust of the day settle. Take a breath. It is time to stop being a "Human Resource" and start being a human being again.Welcome to your real life.

Finding Heart-Led Career in the Age of AI
