This book presents solutions to problems that are total and based on thinking about how and why humans have organized themselves. It discusses how to avoid the now well-documented Holocene Extinction, propelled by climate change, wars, resource depletion, desertification, degrading knowledge quality, famine, and deterioration of societies overall. It explains why we cannot respond effectively with hedonistic, incompetent, corrupt, and anarchistic "liberal democracy" and why neither personality cult regimes can suffice. The book offers a model of an organic social structure embodying a collective consciousness of communitarianism and Platonic-style ethos. Putting an emphasis on the re-establishment of Classical Greek virtue, it offers solutions to resolve identity politics, alienation, and meritocracy. While doing so, the author opposes the "everyone is equal" ideology to govern the section of policymakers, instead circumscribing "rights" in terms ofresponsibilities, prioritizing education and training to carry forth the ethos of valuing truth above materialism, and developing Durkheim's social brain via a new discipline, "sociointelligence". The book goes on to explain how underpinning these elements is a comprehensive elucidation of often misunderstood words like "liberty", "freedom", "authoritarianism", and "democracy". All of these areas are arranged and combined in uniquely describing the organic society the author deems necessary to avoid human extinction. As a result, the book presents a "new organicity", where the emerging transhumanism seeks to transcend hydrocarbon-based life with humanly-constructed life.This book will appeal to students, researchers, and scholars of political science, philosophy, and the social sciences interested in a better understanding of complexity, democratic theory, Holocene Extinction, organic thinking, and meritocratic societies.

Este libro sobre "Innovación Tecnológica y Educación para el Desarrollo" fue escrito por prestigiosos académicos, profesionales, educadores y consultores de Ibero-América de diferentes disciplinas. El tópico de "Innovación Tecnológica y Educación para al Desarrollo" es importante, el cual requiere pensamiento y acción para los efectos de su efectividad en cualquier país y, especialmente para acelerar el desarrollo de países en vías desarrollo. Es un tópico que también es multi- como trans-disciplinario lo cual posibilita 1) comunicación inter-disciplinaria entre diferentes disciplinas académicas y profesionales y 2) comunicación no-disciplinaria con los ciudadanos interesados en su desarrollo y en el de sus países, como la Sociedad en general. El propósito de este libro es comunicar tanto 1) diferentes disciplinas académicas y profesionales entre si, como 2) la academia con la industria y con aquellas personas que constantemente están relacionado pensamiento y acción para efectos de a) su desarrollo personal, b) la educación de sus hijos y c) su efectiva contribución al desarrollos social y nacional. Todos los trabajos y artículos incluidos en este libro han sido presentados en una conferencia iberoamericana sobre el mismo tópico que titula el libro y fueron seleccionados para un proceso editorial adicional. Este proceso fue realizado por 1) el Consejo Editorial del Libro, cuyos miembros son 22 educadores y académicos de importantes universidades iberoamericanas, 2) sus tres co-editores y 3) el Editor-en-Jefe de la Revista Ibero-Americana de Sistemas, Cibernética e Informática (RISCI, http: //www.iiisci.org/journal/risci/EditBoard.asp)
