Another ebook published


As promised the second volume on the history of the Baha'i Faith (The life of Baha'u'llah) has now been published. The ebook is $0.99 as usual. The paperback is $6.99. The printing costs are higher as this is the largest book so far - some 21,000 words.

The book describes the main events in the life of Baha'u'llah. There are many dramatic stories of individuals which had to be omitted but can be found in the more comprehensive histories listed in "Further Reading".

The maps for these books need further editing and will be updated later.

New ebook - The Life of the Bab

 


This new book (ebook and paperback) is called 'The Baha'i Faith - A Short History I' and is about the life of the Bab. The Bab was the forerunner of Baha'u'llah and Himself a Manifestation of God. He lived a short but dramatic life in Iran (Persia) in the 1800's.

Note that the next volume of the history is almost ready and the third volume is being written.

Artificial General Intelligence - when?

 According to the Register, Gartner, a respected technological research and consulting firm, has warned about AGI expectations:

"Gartner is warning that any prospect of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is at least 10 years away and perhaps not certain to ever arrive. It might not even be a worthwhile pursuit, the analyst says."

Ebook progress

 The ebook I mentioned in my last post has now been sent for review - which may take a while.

Meanwhile I am working on the next part of the history - the dispensation of Baha'u'llah, 1850 to 1892. This ebook is even more challenging as the amount of detail available is greater making it difficult to decide what to include and how to summarise. 

If my health permits me to work on the third part that will also be a big challenge. How to summarise the amazing travels of Abdu'l-Baha? I depend upon God's help to make progress...
