Historia
The promise of artificial intelligence is automated decision-making at scale, but that means AI also automates risk at scale. In Ethical Machines, Reid Blackman gives you all you need to understand AI ethics as a risk management challenge. He'll help you build, procure, and deploy AI in a way that's not only ethical but also safe in terms of your organization's reputation, regulatory compliance, and legal standing—and do it at scale. And don't worry—the book's purpose is to get work done, not to ponder deep and existential questions about ethics and technology.

Historia
Twenty years ago, six Penn students shared a house, naively certain that their friendships would endure - until the death of their ringleader and dear friend Bea splintered the group for good. Now, mostly estranged from one another, the remaining five reluctantly gather at that same house on the eve of what would have been Bea's fortieth birthday.

The reader acts out the novel as if it were a movie, bringing it to life.

Historia
Technology rules us as much as laws do. It shapes the legal, social, and ethical environments in which we act. Every time we cross a street, drive a car, or go to the doctor, we submit to the silent power of technology. Yet, much of the time, the influence of technology on our lives goes unchallenged by citizens and our elected representatives. Our embrace of novel technological pathways, Sheila Jasanoff shows, leads to a complex interplay among technology, ethics, and human rights.

Sheila Jasanoff writes about the technologies that are impacting us in various and profound ways. Those who would like to know the background information on the technological incidents that created headlines and controversies will learn a lot from this book. However, what I like most of all is the reading, which is clear and easy to follow. I listened to the whole book in only a few days while driving back and forth from work. It's delightful.

Historia
From the internationally bestselling author of No god but God comes a fascinating, provocative, and meticulously researched biography that challenges long-held assumptions about the man we know as Jesus of Nazareth. Sifting through centuries of mythmaking, Reza Aslan sheds new light on one of history's most influential and enigmatic characters by examining Jesus through the lens of the tumultuous era in which he lived: first-century Palestine, an age awash in apocalyptic fervor.

Riveting
Revisado: 10-28-16
What distinguishes this reading from others is that the author himself is reading it and he puts all kinds of passions into it in a way that only the author can do it. The story itself may be a well worn one, but the author succeeds in transporting us back to the time of Jesus himself and some decades afterward, the time of immense upheaval in the Jewish world.

Historia
The guru to the gurus at last shares his knowledge with the rest of us. Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman's seminal studies in behavioral psychology, behavioral economics, and happiness studies have influenced numerous other authors, including Steven Pinker and Malcolm Gladwell. In Thinking, Fast and Slow, Kahneman at last offers his own, first book for the general public. It is a lucid and enlightening summary of his life's work. It will change the way you think about thinking. Two systems drive the way we think and make choices, Kahneman explains....

Heavy reading
Revisado: 06-26-13
Any additional comments?
This is an academic book. As such it is not a light reading or listening that you can do while doing something else. It requires a lot of effort just to understand what Kahnemann has to say. Besides, the book often refers to figures that are only available graphically and thus cannot be listened to. So while you listen to this book driving, please be careful that most of your brain processes will be used in trying to understand the book so the driving could be impaired.
Nonetheless, this is an important book that deals with how people arrive at their decisions in such a way that confounds typical economic, rational thinking. No wonder Kahnemann works opens up a whole new field of academic study.

Historia
Bill Bryson has been an enormously popular author both for his travel books and for his books on the English language. Now, this beloved comic genius turns his attention to science. Although he doesn't know anything about the subject (at first), he is eager to learn, and takes information that he gets from the world's leading experts and explains it to us in a way that makes it exciting and relevant.

Nice collection of stories
Revisado: 03-25-13
Would you consider the audio edition of A Short History of Nearly Everything to be better than the print version?
The book is a collection of anecdotes and various stories of scientific discoveries and personalities. Those of you who expect a straightforward scientific textbook might be disappointed. Though Bryson does provide some content of science, that is not the focal point of the book, which is Bryson's own telling of stories of science. Those of you would want to know a little bit of everything will get quite a lot here. Matthews' reading of the book is excellent - I particularly like the way he handles foreign names. I read the entire book while I drove to work for five consecutive days. Very enjoyable.
