How do we know what's true? The bestselling author of The Rules of Contagion mines two millennia of knowledge to find out

Addressing Deepfakes

A ground-breaking look at the science of love and connection - and an urgent corrective to some of our most fundamental assumptions about attraction. 'In a world saturated with cynical advice about dating and gender, this book is a revelation.' DANIEL H. PINK, author of Drive and The Power of Regret 'One of the most joyfully uplifting antidotes to 21st-century gloom.' THE TIMES --------------------- We're told that what men and women desire from relationship is different - he's looking for novelty, she's looking for commitment; he's concerned with looks, she's concerned with status. We're told that we live in a hierarchy of romantic inequality - where some are 10s and others are 2s; where some people are marriage material and others are wired for promiscuity. But this narrative is unscientific. Such ideas have their roots in a branch of science called evolutionary psychology, and over the past few decades its ideas have permeated our culture and fuelled a narrative that inspires despair and anxiety - and, in its most extreme form, these ideas have been hijacked in the service of misogyny and violence. But the truth about human attraction - and the way evolution plays out in our romantic lives - is much more interesting and optimistic. Bonded by Evolution offers a radical new picture of the roots of enduring chemistry. Distilling evolutionary biology, anthropology and psychology and informed by his pathbreaking research and original experiments at the Attraction and Relationships Research Laboratory in California, psychology professor Paul Eastwick reveals how attraction is best depicted as a process of finding - and, often, creating - a compatible relationship. Once we understand how ancestral humans sought compatible partners in small networks, we can build a clearer - and brighter - picture of how attraction, sex and relationships really work. --------------------- More praise for Bonded by Evolution: 'Profound and pragmatic, suggesting an entirely different approach to the study - and pursuit - of love.' ERIC KLINENBERG, co-author of Modern Romance 'Rarely have scientific rigor and exuberant optimism been such congenial companions . . . Bonded by Evolution presents an optimistic new paradigm, one that provides clear guidance for romantic success.' ELI FINKEL, author of The All or Nothing Marriage

Post von Rechtsaußen - Ruprecht Polenz über den Kampf um Wahrheit auf Social Media 
 
 Demokratie ist auf ein urteilsfähiges Wahlvolk angewiesen. Dazu gehört, Tatsachen von Meinungen unterscheiden zu können. Der ideale Untertan ist jemand, für den es nicht mehr darauf ankommt, ob der Herrscher lügt oder die Wahrheit sagt, hat schon Hanna Arendt analysiert. Wird das die allgemeine Einstellung, ist Kritik nicht mehr möglich. Das Volk hat seinen Verstand verloren.
 
 Der SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautor Ruprecht Polenz ist einer von Deutschlands einflussreichsten Politikinfluencern. Seit vielen Jahren setzt er sich mit den Fake News rechter Trolle in den sozialen Medien auseinander, wird angefeindet und bepöbelt ? und schlägt im Dienst von Wahrheit und Demokratie beherzt zurück. In seinem neuen Buch zeigt er anhand von zahlreichen Beispielen aus seinem Influencer- Leben, wie Rechtspopulisten oder Rechtsextreme daran arbeiten, den Verstandesverlust unserer Mitbürgerinnen und Mitbürger systematisch herbeizuführen. Sie greifen in die Wissenschaftsfreiheit ein und untergraben das Vertrauen in die klassischen Medien ("Lügenpresse"). Damit brechen die Dämme gegen die Flut ihrer Lügen. Kritik und Kontrolle werden unmöglich. Die Demokratie scheint zerstört. Doch Polenz ist unbeirrbar: Sein Buch analysiert, wie die Angriffe auf die Wahrheit durch die Algorithmen von Social Media unterstützt werden. Es macht Vorschläge, wie wir das System der Wahrheitsfindung stärken können und gibt Tipps, die uns davor schützen, selbst den Verstand zu verlieren.

Und was wir dagegen tun können

From the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Outlive comes a radical exploration of the science of heat adaptation and sweat therapy to tap into the evolutionary superpowers that we’ve forgotten we possess.What if the key to thriving in a hotter world isn’t avoiding the heat—but harnessing it?In Hotwired, bestselling author and science journalist Bill Gifford takes readers on a fascinating exploration of the power of heat to improve our performance and our health. Combining cutting-edge science, personal discovery, and practical insights, Gifford reveals how heat adaptation and heat therapy such as sauna can make us healthier, stronger, and even happier, by unlocking the body’s built-in tools to promote longevity and resilience.Through innovative research in evolutionary biology, physiology, and thermoregulation, Gifford uncovers how humans evolved to excel in sweltering conditions—and how we’ve lost touch with this ancient advantage. He plunges into the steamy world of Finnish saunas, serves as a test subject in cutting-edge heat labs, and tackles a grueling 100-mile bike ride under the blazing Texas sun—to show how temperature extremes can expand our physical and mental limits. He even explores how infrared sauna therapy may fight depression more effectively than medication—and how many people are rediscovering the power of communal wellness through the use of social sauna.Whether you’re looking to perform better, extend your healthy lifespan, adapt to a warming planet, or tap into the human connection that forms when we sweat together, Gifford reveals the incredible benefits of reawakening your body’s natural adaptability to heat and cold. You’ll discover how sweat is more than a cooling mechanism; it’s central to peak performance. We were born to sweat, and sweating makes us stronger.Hotwired shows how short-term discomfort transforms into long-term power. It’s a thrilling call to reimagine heat—not as a threat, but as a tool for survival and strength.

Schattenwurf

Tuberculosis has been entwined with hu­manity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John be­came fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequi­ties that allow this curable, preventable infec­tious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis, John tells Henry's story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world-and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.

The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

Everything Is Tuberculosis

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

What if climate change isn't an environmental challenge, but an energy challenge? *Updated with a new Introduction* 'Thrilling...vividly written, filled with fascinating facts, and inspiring' STEVEN PINKER 'A bold reframing of one of the most misunderstood technologies of the modern age ... This book stands out for its capacity to disarm' Literary Review Sunday Times, i Paper and Nature Book of the Year This visionary book urges us to rethink the path to net zero, arguing that the solution to climate change lies not simply in replacing fossil fuels with renewables, but in fully embracing another energy source that emits zero carbon dioxide: nuclear power. Dr Tim Gregory dismantles the conventional wisdom that renewables are completely 'green', and debunks myths surrounding waste and radiation, demonstrating that nuclear power is not only reliable, safe and potent, but the most environmentally responsible way to harvest energy. He calls for decarbonisation to be the twenty-first century's Apollo programme, making the bold case for an alternative, sustainable and prosperous future. 'Fascinating' JAMES O'BRIEN 'I challenge you to read this book and not be excited about how we get on and power the world with sustainable energy for the next century' HANNAH RITCHIE 'So interesting ... it'll answer all our questions' JEREMY VINE
