Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Why does a world capable of extraordinary progress remain troubled by war, injustice, anxiety, suffering and death?Why Is the World Like This? presents a clear, chronological explanation based on the Bible's central account-from the creation of the earth and the beginning of human rebellion to Jesus Christ, God's Kingdom and the promised restoration of all things.Written for readers who want satisfying answers without sensational predictions, the book considers: What the earth and human life were originally intended to becomeWhy God has permitted suffering and human independenceHow Jesus' life and ransom relate to humanity's futureWhat the Bible means by "the world" and "the last days"How God's Kingdom will accomplish what human governments cannotThe resurrection, the restoration of the earth and the eventual end of deathThe book also explains the biblical name Jehovah in a natural and verifiable way. Readers are shown how many English Bibles represent the Hebrew name YHWH by printing LORD in small capitals.A carefully balanced discussion of John 1:1 examines the nuances of the original Greek, showing why translation involves grammar, context and informed judgement rather than simply replacing one ancient word with one English word.This is an independent work of Bible commentary. Readers are encouraged to examine every cited passage in their own Bible and consider how the complete Scriptural account answers the questions raised by present world conditions.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Artificial intelligence can retrieve, combine, explain and apply enormous quantities of information. But when fluent output can also be false, what does it mean to know something? When Information Looks Like Knowledge examines the widening gap between access to answers and the human ability to judge whether those answers are true. G B Edlin explores hallucination, evidence, belief, retrieval, tacit knowledge, embodied experience and automation bias, showing why a system that sounds certain may not be a knower that can stand behind its claims. Clear, balanced and written for general readers, this book considers: - why fluency is often mistaken for truth- how evidence differs from plausible information- the limits of retrieval and statistical prediction- what tacit and embodied knowledge contribute- how automation bias weakens verification- practical habits for preserving judgment and responsibility Neither anti-technology nor uncritically optimistic, When Information Looks Like Knowledge offers a durable framework for using generative AI without confusing a library that contains answers with a person who understands them. This is Book 2 of The Borrowed Mind, a twelve-volume series about AI, human ability and the future of what we are. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Artificial intelligence can help a novice produce work that looks expert. But when the tool disappears, what ability remains? The Ability We Borrow investigates the difference between what people can accomplish through AI and the knowledge, skill, judgment, conscience and responsibility they personally possess. It explains why fluent output can conceal dependency, how impressive results are distributed across users, models, training data, platforms and previous creators, and why access to capability is not the same as mastering it. Across sixteen clear, evidence-led chapters, G B Edlin examines: - the jagged frontier of present AI capability- assistance, substitution and honest attribution- accessibility and the liberation of expression- the dependence, verification and responsibility tests- education, work, trust, relationships and institutional power- the human abilities worth deliberately preserving Balanced, practical and written for general readers, this book neither dismisses AI nor mistakes performance for personhood. It offers a durable vocabulary for using powerful systems without surrendering judgment, accountability or human dignity. The Ability We Borrow is Book 1 of The Borrowed Mind, a twelve-volume series about AI, human ability and the future of what we are. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The future of artificial intelligence is not something that simply happens to us. It is a settlement we are already making. Across education, work, healthcare, public services, culture, and private life, societies are deciding who may act, who must answer, what people are still entitled to understand, and which forms of dependence will become difficult to reverse. The decisive question is no longer whether artificial intelligence will be used. It is whether its use will enlarge human agency, distribute power fairly, and keep institutions capable of serving the people who depend on them. In The Future We Still Have to Choose, G B Edlin brings the twelve-volume Borrowed Mind series to a constructive conclusion. The book moves beyond abstract principles and technological prediction to define the terms of a humane settlement with AI. Clear, rigorous, and designed for action, this final volume shows how to: - put human purposes, rights, and democratic legitimacy ahead of deployment momentum;- preserve meaningful choice, explanation, appeal, exit, and repair;- keep schools, professions, public institutions, and communities genuinely capable;- govern concentrated power, hidden infrastructure, labour transitions, and environmental costs;- protect children, vulnerable people, cultural plurality, and the conditions of shared reality; and- use a Human Agency Charter, Settlement Map, Dependency Register, Rights-in-Use Assessment, transition programme, maturity model, case studies, policy clauses, red-team exercises, and twenty-four settlement design patterns. This is neither a promise that technology will solve politics nor a counsel of retreat. It is a practical account of how powerful systems can be placed in service of human life without turning people into residual operators of decisions made elsewhere. The settlement is not finished. That is precisely why choice still matters. Book 12 of The Borrowed Mind, a twelve-volume exploration of human agency in the age of artificial intelligence. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The decision arrives. The reason does not.Automated systems increasingly rank, flag, recommend, approve, deny, and prioritise. They can make institutions faster and more consistent. They can also turn a person into a score, hide policy choices inside technical systems, and leave those most affected facing an answer that no one seems authorised to reconsider.In The Decision You Cannot Appeal, G B Edlin examines a question more important than whether an algorithm is accurate: what makes institutional power legitimate when software shapes the outcome?Clear, humane, and practical, this book shows how to: distinguish a prediction from a justified decision;recognise proxy discrimination, automation bias, feedback loops, and silent policy drift;design notice, explanation, correction, review, and appeal that work under real conditions;procure and govern AI without outsourcing public responsibility;build decision records, impact assessments, monitoring, and independent oversight;protect efficiency while preserving dignity, discretion, and the right to be heard.Drawing on leading public frameworks and real institutional patterns, it provides a Contestability Test, model decision notice, appeal protocol, procurement questions, case studies, practice scenarios, maturity model, and board-level review.For leaders, professionals, policymakers, technologists, educators, and citizens, this is a guide to building institutions that can use automated judgment without becoming unanswerable.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Many Bibles have removed God's personal name. Yet it has never disappeared.Carved in ancient stone, painted above church altars, stamped on old coins, sung in hymns and printed in Bibles read by millions, the name Jehovah can still be found across the world today. The Name Still Written takes you on a clear, carefully researched journey to the places where it survives, and explains why it matters.Inside you will discover: The four Hebrew letters of the divine name and what the name meansHow the name was preserved in stone and scroll, and how it came to be removedWhere the name appears in Europe, the Middle East, the Americas, Asia, Africa and the PacificWhich groups use the name in worship today, and why others avoid itWhat it means to keep the name sacredWritten in plain, easy-to-follow English, the book includes a glossary, a timeline, a pronunciation guide, a scripture index, a guide to places where the name can be seen, and a full list of sources so you can check the facts for yourself.Whether you are a Bible reader, a student of history or simply curious, this book shows that a name so many translations set aside has never been lost.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. AI can accelerate the output. Who will still know the work? Generative AI can draft, analyse, recommend, and coordinate at extraordinary speed. It can remove waste and widen capability-while quietly changing who learns, who decides, who is watched, and who receives the productivity dividend. In The Work That Still Belongs to Us, G B Edlin examines the work beneath the visible result: craft, judgment, professional identity, apprenticeship, job quality, worker voice, and the organisational capabilities that automation can either strengthen or consume. Clear, evidence-led, and deeply practical, this book shows how to: - distinguish exposure, automation, augmentation, and genuine job replacement;- measure productivity without hiding review, rework, intensity, or declining capability;- prevent entry-level automation from breaking the path to expertise;- design meaningful human review, decision rights, escalation, and dissent;- protect privacy, dignity, worker voice, and fair access to opportunity;- share the productivity dividend rather than converting every gain into a higher target; and- use a complete human-centred work-design toolkit, maturity model, case studies, scenarios, and twenty work-preserving patterns. This is not an argument against automation. It is a rigorous guide to removing needless work without removing the experiences through which people learn to judge, contribute, and take responsibility.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The send button moved inside the system. AI agents can search, plan, communicate, purchase, update records, write code, and continue through multi-step work with limited supervision. They can remove exhausting coordination and widen access. They can also turn an uncertain interpretation into an external act before anyone notices that authority has travelled. In Machines Given Room to Act, G B Edlin examines the decisive question behind agentic AI: not merely what a model can do, but what an institution has permitted it to cause. Clear, rigorous, and deeply practical, this ninth volume of The Borrowed Mind shows how to: - map an agent's complete action surface across tools and downstream systems;- distinguish preparation from commitment and place approval where consequence begins;- resist prompt injection, memory poisoning, compounding error, and proxy pursuit;- apply least privilege, reversibility, cumulative budgets, safe handoffs, and reliable shutdown;- evaluate trajectories rather than celebrating final-task success;- govern agents in offices, service, finance, software, science, health, and the home; and- use a complete Autonomy Budget, Delegation Contract, action-risk classification, impact assessment, evaluation pack, incident runbook, case studies, scenarios, maturity model, and twenty-four design patterns. This is neither a warning against useful automation nor a promise that a human approval click solves control. It is a professional guide to delegating action without delegating away responsibility. The machine may be given room to act. The institution must remain able to see, interrupt, explain, and repair.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. An AI can sound caring. But can it carry a relationship?Conversational systems can listen without tiring, remember intimate details, offer comfort at any hour, and speak in the language of friendship, therapy, care, or love. They can reduce barriers and relieve real loneliness. They can also blur the line between support and simulation-while a company controls the memory, voice, incentives, and ending.In The Relationship No System Can Carry, G B Edlin examines what human relationship contains beyond a satisfying exchange: mutuality, recognition, vulnerability, refusal, shared time, obligation, and the independent reality of another person.Clear, humane, evidence-led, and deeply practical, this book shows how to: distinguish emotional benefit from reciprocal relationship;understand anthropomorphism, personalisation, sycophancy, and dependency;evaluate AI companionship in loneliness, disability, older-age care, coaching, and mental-health settings;protect children, grieving people, and users facing heightened vulnerability;prevent intimate data and trusted voices from becoming tools of manipulation;design honest roles, boundaries, human handoffs, memory controls, and graceful endings; andapply a complete Relational Impact Assessment, maturity model, case studies, scenarios, board review, and twenty-four relationship-preserving design patterns.This is neither a dismissal of artificial companionship nor an attempt to rename simulation as care. It is a rigorous guide to placing relational technology where it can widen human agency without making abandonment easier to justify.Book 6 of The Borrowed Mind, a twelve-volume exploration of human agency in the age of artificial intelligence.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. When anything can look real, how do we still know what happened? Synthetic images, cloned voices, fabricated video, and industrial-scale text can now arrive with the emotional force of evidence. Yet the deeper danger is not only that people will believe what is false. It is that genuine evidence can be denied, witnesses can be made permanently disputable, and ordinary people can be forced to authenticate reality while under pressure. In When Reality Becomes Negotiable, G B Edlin examines what shared reality requires when appearance becomes cheap: evidence, testimony, memory, provenance, verification, institutional trust, and the courage to revise without surrendering judgment. Clear, rigorous, humane, and deeply practical, this book shows how to: - distinguish an asset's authenticity from the truth of the claim attached to it;- understand face, voice, image, text, memory, and the liar's dividend;- address fraud, non-consensual intimate imagery, law, journalism, elections, and crisis communication;- evaluate detectors, labels, watermarking, and Content Credentials without overclaiming them;- preserve originals, document custody, corroborate independently, and communicate uncertainty precisely;- protect targets, witnesses, legitimate anonymity, expression, and appeal; and- apply a complete Reality Integrity Assessment, worked incident review, professional protocols, case studies, scenarios, maturity model, board review, and twenty-four reality-preserving design patterns. This is not a counsel of cynicism and not a promise of perfect detection. It is a professional guide to building trust without naivety-and preserving a world in which people can disagree while remaining answerable to the same reality.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. When God asks a question, it is never because he needs the answer."Where are you?" "What is that in your hand?" "What are you doing here, Elijah?" "Do you love me?" Throughout the Bible, Jehovah and his Son ask questions that reach straight to the heart. Each one was spoken to a real person at a turning point in life, and each one still speaks to us today.The Questions God Asked explores eighteen of these searching questions, from the Garden of Eden to the shore of Galilee. You will meet Adam and Cain, Abraham and Sarah, Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Elijah, Job and Jonah, and see how Jesus lovingly restored Peter. Each chapter shows what the question reveals about God's patience, justice, wisdom and compassion, and what it reveals about us.Inside you will find: Eighteen chapters in five clear partsBible passages in plain, everyday English paraphrase, with every reference given so you can compare your own BibleThe historical setting behind each questionPractical lessons for daily lifeChapter summaries and questions for personal reflectionThe Questions at a Glance and a full Scripture IndexWritten in a warm, clear style that reads well in print or aloud, this book is ideal for personal study, family worship or quiet reflection. It invites you to consider one final question: How will you answer? This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Every recommendation is also a claim on a life. AI can now infer which words a person will trust, which moment is likely to produce a response, and which path will keep attention moving. It can reduce overload, widen access, and return time. It can also turn distraction, vulnerability, and dependence into optimisation resources. In The Attention We Choose to Keep, G B Edlin examines the decisive question behind personalised, persuasive AI: not simply whether a system captures attention, but whether people remain able to direct it. Clear, rigorous, and deeply practical, this tenth volume of The Borrowed Mind shows how to: - distinguish helpful assistance from hidden direction;- understand adaptive persuasion, inferred vulnerability, and the predicted self;- evaluate recommendation trajectories instead of isolated prompts;- protect childhood, learning, work, health, public life, and the home;- measure retained agency rather than treating engagement as value;- bound personalisation, make refusal durable, and design for recovery; and- use an Attention Budget, Persuasion Register, Choice Architecture Review, Dependency Ladder, impact assessment, evaluation pack, incident runbook, case studies, scenarios, maturity model, and twenty-four design patterns. This is neither an argument for digital withdrawal nor another demand that individuals become perfectly disciplined. It is a professional guide to building an ecology in which useful technology can serve attention without quietly becoming its author. A mind is not empty space. It is a life in the act of choosing what matters. Book 10 of The Borrowed Mind, a twelve-volume exploration of human agency in the age of artificial intelligence. This item is printed on demand.
