m Leben eines Soldaten ist der Tod jederzeit nah. Otto Bulletproof machte diese Erfahrung, als er als Teil einer Fallschirmjägereinheit der Bundeswehr in Afghanistan in Lebensgefahr geriet. Von Raketenbeschuss und heiklen Missionen bis zum Tod eines Kameraden erzählt er in Becoming Bulletproof Geschichten aus dieser Zeit und davon, was ihn das Militär über Pflichtbewusstsein, Sinn und Werte gelehrt hat. Und natürlich berichtet er von herausfordernden Survival-Touren wie »7 vs. Wild« oder der »Warrior«-Reihe, die sein Leben bereichern, seitdem er aus dem Militär ausgeschieden ist.

Spätestens seit der Allianz von Donald Trump und Elon Musk ist klar: Die Tech-Milliardäre sind nicht nur die reichsten Männer der Welt, es geht ihnen auch um politische Macht und um die radikale Umgestaltung von Gesellschaft und Natur. Als Douglas Rushkoff eine Einladung in ein exklusives Wüstenresort erhält, nimmt er an, dass er dort über Zukunftstechnologien sprechen soll. Stattdessen sieht er sich Milliardären gegenüber, die ihn zu Luxusbunkern und Marskolonien befragen.

In Survival of the Richest, Rushkoff traces the origins of The Mindset in science and technology through its current expression in missions to Mars, island bunkers, AI futurism, and the metaverse. In a dozen urgent, electrifying chapters, he confronts tech utopianism, the datafication of all human interaction, and the exploitation of that data by corporations. Through fascinating characters, Rushkoff explains why those with the most power to change our current trajectory have no interest in doing so.

The question of exactly what sex differences exist and whether they have a biological foundation has been one of our culture's favorite enduring discussions. It should. After a baby is born, a parent's first concern is for its physical health. The next concern is its sex. Only in the most modern societies does sex not virtually guarantee the type of future life a new human being will have.
