Watch Adam Becker (@FreelanceAstro), author of "More Everything Forever," on @StarTalkRadio with @neiltyson.  They talk about Silicon Valley's dreams of space empires, AGI, and "functional immortality"—and why you shouldn't believe the hype.  Watch here: bit.ly/4iZ5ubp

For years, athletic directors and sports executives have made costly mistakes too often when leading a head coaching search. I recently finished reading Credible – The Power of Expert Leaders by Amanda Goodall. Reading this book should be a requirement for all ADs and sports executives. These decision-makers can learn from Amanda Goodall’s insightful perspective, examples, and research about who should actually lead and how to identify that person. I’ve read more than 200 books on decision-making, business successes, leadership, and coaches. More than any book, this one will help decision-makers avoid mistakes made by many. hachettebookgroup.com/titles/amanda-…

John Banville wrote a lovely review of my biography of Bergson for @thenation calling it “fascinating and lively” He also says that I have “a genius for condensing complex philosophical and scientific postulates into digestible bites.” thenation.com/article/cultur…

This very fine book on land and power is out. I provided the following endorsement for the book: “Land has always been a source of economic wealth. This captivating book demonstrates that it has also been a fountainhead of political and social power, profoundly shaping the organization and political structures of many societies.”
Michael Albertus@mikealbertus

Very excited to announce the release of my new book today, Land Power! Based on 15 years of work, it tells the story of how land shapes societies, from racial hierarchy to inequality, development, gender & the environment. In hardcover/eBook/audiobook. More in 🧵 @BasicBooks 🥳

Hugely enjoyable night at @FT & @Schroders Business Book of the Year Award. Wonderful to have The Longevity Imperative (amzn.eu/d/6zOtJX8) in the short list but congratulations to Parmy Olson @parmy who emerged the winner on a suspense filled night with her book Supremacy.

Intent to Destroy is here! A book that I never imagined writing, hated to write and now so glad I did. This is the UK version, the US one has a different cover, though both are published by Basic Books @BasicBooks and @BasicBooksUK. So, a short 🧵
