“It's very important, at least to me as a writer, that there be some rules on the table when I'm writing. Rules come from genres.

“In the field of Artificial Intelligence there is no more iconic and controversial milestone than the Turing Test, when a computer convinces a sufficient number of interrogators into believing that it is not a machine but rather is a human. It is fitting that such an important landmark has been reached at the Royal Society in London, the home of British Science and the scene of many great advances in human understanding over the centuries. This milestone will go down in history as one of the most exciting.” BelieveHumansHas BeensImportantHomeUnderstandingNumbersCenturyFieldsSceneComputerTestsMachinesExcitingBritishLondonSufficientConvinceArtificial IntelligenceArtificialRoyalControversialFittingIconicMilestoneLandmarks Author:Kevin Warwick
“I find Chinese debates about their political system domestically, but also about China's claims in the international system, to be among the most original and surprising and exciting of our time. The starting point is a system that none of us had anticipated, which I call Leninist capitalism, but also obviously because it is the most important emerging power. The question of China's relations with the United States in particular, and the rest of the world in general, is the question of war and peace in the 21st century.” WorldImportantWarStatesPoliticalUnitedUnited StatesCenturyParticularCapitalismExcitingClaimsRelationOriginalsStartingInternationalChinaDebateChineseOur TimeSurprising21st CenturyEmergingPolitical SystemsStarting Point Author:Timothy Garton Ash

“I was lucky to wander into evolutionary theory, one of the most exciting and important of all scientific fields. I had never heard of it when I started at a rather tender age; I was simply awed by dinosaurs. I thought paleontologists spent their lives digging up bones and putting them together, never venturing beyond the momentous issue of what connects to what. Then I discovered evolutionary theory. Ever since then, the duality of natural history-richness in particularities and potential union in underlying explanation-has propelled me.” ImportantAgeTogetherNaturalIssuesHeardAtheismFieldsTheoryLuckyExcitingUnionsBonesWanderExplanationRichnessDualityDiggingDinosaursNatural History Author:Stephen Jay Gould
