In Learning to Imagine, Andrew Shtulman reveals that the opposite is true. Imagination is not something that we inherit at birth, only to diminish with age. Instead, it is something we...

"The foundations of modern knowledge--philosophy, math, astronomy, geography--were laid by the Greeks, whose ideas were written on scrolls and stored in libraries across the Mediterranean and beyond.

Today's "machine-learning" systems, trained by data, are so effective that we've invited them to see and hear for us-and to make decisions on our behalf. But alarm bells are ringing.
