A new and coherent framework for fostering the breakthrough innovations that we urgently need to confront our collective future. We live in less innovative times than we think. Despite having made major technological advancements in a few areas, we are still left with enormous unsolved challenges. A radical shift in the culture of innovation is needed. On the Brink of Utopia, by authors Thomas Ramge and Rafael Laguna de la Vera, and with a foreword written by Nobel Laureate Stefan Hell, offers just that—a new and coherent framework for fostering breakthrough innovations for human progress. In their “Innovation Leap Paradigm,” they present seven steps in seven chapters and answer three simple questions: What great challenges need to be tackled? Who makes tech leaps? And finally, what political, economic, and cultural environments foster radical innovation? The authors sketch out a future in which technology will solve real problems, anywhere from climate change and hunger to obesity and menstrual pain. They envision a future in which biotechnologists work from a platform that enables them to develop effective drugs within months for any emerging virus, where green energy will be too cheap to meter and aerial carbon can be transmuted into a valuable commodity at scale. Offering a new perspective on innovation that centers not just American readers but also readers from all over the world, On the Brink of Utopia is a hopeful and visionary book that reimagines the roles of innovators, citizens, governments, and financial markets to foster innovation leaps that maximize the well-being of the greatest number of people.

Does the concept of nationality apply to the economic elite, or have they shed national identities to form a global capitalist class? In Rooted Globalism, Kevin Funk unpacks dozens of ethnographic interviews he conducted with Latin America's urban-based, Arab-descendant elite class, some of whom also occupy positions of political power in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. Based on extensive fieldwork, Funk illuminates how these elites navigate their Arab ancestry, Latin American host cultures, and roles as protagonists of globalization. With the term "rooted globalism," Funk captures the emergence of classed intersectional identities that are simultaneously local, national, transnational, and global. Focusing on an oft-ignored axis of South-South relations (between Latin America and the Arab world), Rooted Globalism provides detailed analysis of the identities, worldviews, and motivations of this group and ultimately reveals that rather than obliterating national identities, global capitalism relies on them.

A compelling look at the lives of ultra-Orthodox and formerly ultra-Orthodox Jewish women and their use of media technologies to create a new market for music and film Mainstream portrayals of ultra-Orthodox religious women often frame their faith as oppressive: they are empowered only when they leave their community. This book flips this notion on its head. Drawing on six years of fieldwork between New York and Montreal, Jessica Roda examines modern performances on the stage and screen directed by and for ultra-Orthodox women. Their incredibly vibrant Jewish artistic scenes defy stereotypes that paint these women as repressed, reclusive to their shtetl (village), and devoid of creativity and agency. For Women and Girls Only argues that access to technology has completely transformed how ultra-Orthodox women express their way of being religious and that the digital era has enabled them to create an alternative entertainment market outside of the public, male-dominated one. Because expectations surrounding modesty, ultra-Orthodox women do not sing, dance, or act in front of men and the public. Yet, in a revolutionary move, they are creating “women and girls only” spaces onsite and online, putting the onus on men to shield themselves from the content. They develop modest public spaces on the Internet, about which male religious leaders are often unaware. The book also explores the entanglement between these observant female artists and those who left religion and became public performers. The author shows that the arts expressed by all these women offer a means of not only social but also economic empowerment in their respective worlds. For Women and Girls Only is a groundbreaking reversal of mainstream portrayals of ultra-Orthodox religious women, and of those who have left the community yet maintain ties to it. It is the first work to focus on the ultra-Orthodox female art scene in music, film, and dance across North America and on social media.

The book uniquely explores the fundamentals of blockchain and digital twin and their uses in smart hospitals. Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Blockchain Technology and Digital Twin for Smart Hospitals provides fundamental information on blockchain and digital twin technology as effective solutions in smart hospitals. Digital twin technology enables the creation of real-time virtual replicas of hospital assets and patients, enhancing predictive maintenance, operational efficiency, and patient care. Blockchain technology provides a secure and transparent platform for managing and sharing sensitive data, such as medical records and pharmaceutical supply chains. By combining these technologies, smart hospitals can ensure data security, interoperability, and streamlined operations while providing patient-centered care. The book also explores the impact of collected medical data from real-time systems in smart hospitals, and by making it accessible to all doctors via a smartphone or mobile device for fast decisions. Inevitable challenges such as privacy concerns and integration costs must, of course, be addressed. However, the potential benefits in terms of improved healthcare quality, reduced costs, and global health initiatives makes the integration of these technologies a compelling avenue for the future of healthcare. Some of the topics that readers will find in this book include: Wireless Medical Sensor Networks in Smart Hospitals ● DNA Computing in Cryptography ● Enhancing Diabetic Retinopathy and Glaucoma Diagnosis through Efficient Retinal Vessel Segmentation and Disease Classification ● Machine Learning-Enabled Digital Twins for Diagnostic And Therapeutic Purposes ● Blockchain as the Backbone of a Connected Ecosystem of Smart Hospitals ● Blockchain for Edge Association in Digital Twin Empowered 6G Networks ● Blockchain for Security and Privacy in Smart Healthcare ● Blockchain-Enabled Internet of Things (IoTs) Platforms for IoT-Based Healthcare and Biomedical Sector ● Electronic Health Records in a Blockchain ● PSO-Based Hybrid Cardiovascular Disease Prediction for Using Artificial Flora Algorithm ● AI and Transfer Learning Based Framework for Efficient Classification And Detection Of Lyme Disease ● Framework for Gender Detection Using Facial Countenances ● Smartphone-Based Sensors for Biomedical Applications ● Blockchain for Improving Security and Privacy in the Smart Sensor Network ● Sensors and Digital Twin Application in Healthcare Facilities Management ● Integration of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) with Blockchain Technology to Improve Security and Privacy ● Machine Learning-Driven Digital Twins for Precise Brain Tumor and Breast Cancer Assessment ● Ethical and Technological Convergence: AI and Blockchain in Halal Healthcare ● Digital Twin Application in Healthcare Facilities Management ● Cloud-based Digital Twinning for Structural Health Monitoring Using Deep Learning.
