In seinem neuen Buch rekapituliert Chris Brönimann die zurückliegenden Jahre als Transfrau, den langen Weg einer schwierigen Entscheidungsfindung und wie sich sein Leben seither verändert hat. Heute stellt er andere Fragen als in jungen Jahren. Zum Beispiel: Was ist Männlichkeit und was ist Weiblichkeit? Wie können beide Identitäten miteinander in Einklang gebracht werden? Und: Warum werden Menschen, die ihr Glück als Trans-Personen nicht finden und die einstige Entscheidung aus vielfältigen Gründen hinterfragen, in den eigenen Reihen kritisiert? Innerhalb einer jahrzehntelangen Entwicklung argumentiert Chris Brönimann als Zeitzeuge, der sich kraftvoll von vielen Zwängen befreite und auch heute für sich beansprucht, Dinge neu denken und fühlen zu dürfen. Nebst seinen biografischen Erfahrungen im Rahmen der De-Tranisition, die er facettenreich, menschlich und ausgewogen schildert, vertieft er wesentliche Wissens- Aspekte. Ebenfalls kommen verschiedene Wegbegleiter zu Wort, auch solche, die erzählen, unter welchen Voraussetzungen die Transition gelingen kann.

Heimkehr zu Chris

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

From Alan Turing breaking the Enigma code to ChatGPT reshaping how we work and create, artificial intelligence has always been powered by a single unifying principle: learning from data under uncertainty. This book reveals the mathematical machinery behind modern AI, weaving together Bayesian probability, statistical learning, and deep neural networks into a coherent intellectual framework. Whether you seek to understand why large language models hallucinate, how recommendation systems predict your preferences, or what makes reinforcement learning agents master complex games, this book equips you with both the theoretical foundations and practical intuitions that define the modern AI playbook.Key Features:<ul> <li>Builds Bayesian reasoning from first principles through historical examples like submarine search and WWII code-breaking</li> <li>Bridges classical statistics and deep learning, connecting linear regression to transformers</li> <li>Covers the complete AI stack: probability, decision theory, Gaussian processes, neural networks, CNNs, NLP, and LLMs</li> <li>Emphasizes uncertainty quantification-building systems that know what they don't know</li> <li>Practical applications across finance, healthcare, operations, and autonomous systems</li> <li>Emerging topics: AI agents, RLHF, and retrieval-augmented generation</li> </ul>Written for graduate students, data scientists, and quantitatively-minded practitioners, this book assumes comfort with calculus and basic probability while building sophisticated intuitions progressively. Business analysts will appreciate the decision-theoretic framing; engineers will value the architectural insights; researchers will find rigorous foundations for further study. Whether used as a course textbook, professional reference, or intellectual companion for understanding the AI revolution transforming every industry, this book delivers the rare combination of mathematical depth and accessible exposition that makes complex ideas genuinely understandable.
