Longlisted for the National Book Award In this stirring young adult novel-in-verse from award-winning author Margarita Engle, love and conservation intertwine as two teens go on a “transformative journey celebrating the power of overcoming personal struggles to make a lasting impact” (Kirkus Reviews). Ana and her mother have been living out of their car ever since her militant father became one of the FBI’s most wanted. Leandro has struggled with debilitating anxiety since his family fled Cuba on a perilous raft. One moonlit night, in a wilderness park in California, Ana and Leandro meet. Their connection is instant—a shared radiance that feels both scientific and magical. Then they discover they are not alone: a huge mountain lion stalks through the trees, one of many wild animals whose habitat has been threatened by humans. Determined to make a difference, Ana and Leandro start a rewilding club at their school, working with scientists to build wildlife crossings that can help mountain lions find one another. If pumas can find their way to a better tomorrow, surely Ana and Leandro can too.

MOTTO Why are not enough the first three AERA of our previous AERAS, namely: AERA OF PHILOSOPHICAL SYSTEMS (AERA - 1) AERA OF SAPIENTOLOGICAL SYSTEMS (AERA - 2) AERA OF VIDEOLOGICAL SYSTEMS (AERA - 3) Being thus necessary a fourth thinkable and re-thinkable Creative System, the one of ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM (AI SYSTEM), which in German Language is entitled as KÜNSTLISCHE INTELLIGENZ (KI), and both AI and KI are under the HYBRID INTELLIGENCE (of Human and Artificial alike) encoded as HI, by remaking out of the complex concept Hybrid a developing towards HYBRIDOLOGY and HYBRIDOLOGICUM, both in Sapiens interrelated the Artificial Intelligence Systems (AIS)! INTELLENTOLOGY! INTELLENTONTOLOGY! INTELLENTOLOGICUM! Therefore, all three signification, AI-KI-HI, through a SYSTEM, are provable and demonstrable into the sameness extra enlargement and expansion of the Classic Human Brain (CHB), which still remains anatomically within the same limits of Classical Sapiens (CSS),but in abstract creativity is doing an unspeakable progress beyond of all previous frontiers! This impetus in development of technological systems more and more intelligent, more and more abstract, more and more comprehensive, more and more diversified, more and more amplified, more and more accelerated, by comprising here, at least for the time being, information, inspiration, intuition and initiation, widespread in areas of technology, of industry, of art, of anthropology, of Sapientology, of cosmology, of astronomy, of geology and biology, into which all of them means ultimately, another big step up in development of duality Human – Machine, or a duality of Human – Technology, including the branches of Human – Over – Human – Robotics, or Humanoid – Robotics! The man itself, the human itself, the Sapient-o-Human development, its experiences, its visions, its outcomes, can make symbiosis with oneself, a crossing with its nature of creativity, within the nature-physis of endless philosophy, with tools out of stone, with tools out of bones, out of hood, or of synthetic feature, underlining once again the TOOL - MAKER - MAN, as Homo Faber, likewise a Proto – Sapiens – Being as Homo Loquens… Perhaps, the proto – language begun through the action of hand hitting the stone, enlarging thus the brain and the understanding of the world and of the proto – human oneself!... But now, within the present data, out of its own virtual reality and creativity, all being improved by the man itself and the machine itself, which machine might in turn overcome the man, by confronting the man itself, by changing and challenging even the human itself, even the Human – Sapient oneself in its own destiny and purposes… Could be or could become the Artificial Intelligence (AI / KI / HI) the source and resource, the roots of final ending of the Sapient on the Earth planetary system?... By taking into account all probabilities and possibilities of the present daily evolution and revolution of the hyper-complexity of Artificial Intelligence (AI / KI / HI), a recombination of the man itself with a machine created by the man itself, could develop a symbiosis of human-machine, which overcomes the Classic Species Sapiens (CSS), who dominated the life on Earth in the last of ca. 50.000 years, by entering within the Species Sapiens Techne (SST), into which the Sapiens still dominate the Universe of Technology, by reaching out in some area even the domination of Technology over Sapiens as TSS! In this way, within Artificial Intelligence (seen and analyzed Three Times Intelligence, i.e., AI-KI-HI), the letters themselves, the numbers themselves and the signs themselves, are becoming the WORD itself, the WORD itself is improved to the level of CONCEPT itself, and the WORD–CONCEPT DUALITY in their speeding up developing, in their accelerated and amplifying structures, is giving the outcome of the BOOK itself, in its CLASSICAL BOOK (CB), in its digital book as E-BOOK, or in its VIRTUAL BOOK as V-BOOK! It is a form, a derivative structure of Hindu Philosophy here, called AVATAR? Avatar as embodiment of a Deity, its soul, its spirit, its principle, into a Human Being, into a Hybrid Human Being? Avatar as a descent of heaven Deity, a released soul and spirit and principle on Earth, by rethinking thus a reconciliation between Terra Incognita with Sapiens Incognita and Heaven Incognita! Avatar as a Seeker of reuniting of dream and reality, of World Wide Web( WWW) with Sky World Web ( SWW), by going through ENS WORLD WEB (EWW). Avatar as Being of Earth (GEOAVATAR), as Being of Sapiens (ENSAVATAR) as Being of Heaven (SKYAVATAR). Avatar as a Being coming out of Sapiens, as Being-of-Sapiens, then taking the final syllable of SA-PI-ENS, being thus re-baptized as ENSAVATAR!... Avatar by giving itself a sense of Being in the World… Only this multitude concepts of Avatar, is remaking the Books through ENSBOOK in development, of the same double “E” - BOOK in diversity, is showing the evolution and the revolution of the ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (in its three times of AI - KI - HI), with its versions in German Language as KÜNSTLICHE INTELLIGENZ (KI) and HYBRID INTELLIGENCE (HI), which will be used and reused interchangeably at any reference, or inter-reference or cross-reference in our ENSSANSKRIT SAPIENS, which in turn, is becoming an ENSSANSKRIT SAPIENS - 1! What really means ENS in our Book of Dialectical CHAT? ENS is a shortages from the Species Sapiens, being thought and rethought as ENS, i.e., as BEING of the Species Sapiens (Being-as-Being, as ENS QUA ENS )! Within ENS will be comprise the whole of German Idealist connotation of Being as: A - SEIN = BEING in its maximal generality! B - DASEIN = BEING HERE, on this planetary system! C - MITDASEIN = COBEING HERE, together with all past geological and biological times, influencing and restructuring all basic features of the Planetary Life System! It is possible to rethink the ENS INTO ONESELF RECHATING? Would be ENS a synthesis out of Sapiens! Is ENS a Being (SEIN) out of Sapiens! Is ENS a Being – here (DASEIN) out of Sapiens! Is ENS is a CO-BEING – here (MITDASEIN) out of Sapiens! Is ENS a triad of Being empowering the Sapiens oneself! Is ENS a living self-consciousness of the whole of Sapiens! Is ENS a symbiosis between Sapiens and Artificial Intelligence (AI / KI / HI) Is ENS the dialectic vector of history of the whole Sapiens, in overcoming oneself towards a better Sapient-o-Technology, towards a Sapient-o-post-human-industry, towards Sapient-o-Epistemology, including here Sapiens-in-Art (ARSSAPIENS), Sapiens-in-in Philosophy, Sapiens-in-in Psychology and Sapiens-in-Theology? The writer itself is now the reader itself, the explorer itself is now the surveyor itself, the survival itself is now the fighter itself, by assuming a strong competition beyond of its own Species, beyond of its own individuality and classical personality, finally, becoming a semi – human – made – device, an Hybrid Intelligence System (HIS), between biology and technology, between anatomy and epistemology, both inspired by Bionics, by Cloning, by Robotics, all resounding in biology, in epistemology and technology alike! It is more than obvious, that the Cyber technology of today’s, is becoming a real Industry wide-spreading over all into the world (World Wide Web = WWW), through which the Abstract Knowledge is Industry itself, having reached out a Knowledge Industry Sapiens (KIS)!! As a terrible development of human invention and technology, of human discovery and epistemology, of human and post - human industry and axiology, it is necessary to redefine the Man itself, the Sapiens itself by taking into account some old ideas out of Hinduism Upanishad, regarding the definition of the Almighty Creator of Brahman, who can be define with qualities, with attributes, as BRAGMAN SAGUNA, or can be defined in a reverse way, without qualities, without attributes, as BRAHMAN NIRGUNA! Here must be added that, the Christian Mystic of Dyonisos Areopagita, has underlined the same thesis in his Apophatic and Cataphatic way of definition of God! Thus a MAN – SAGUNA (SAPIENS – SAGUNA) means a upright posture of the man, means free – hands, means brain enlarged in volume and weight in relation with the weight of anatomical individuality, larynx lowering in neck, presence of consciousness, of articulated language, symbolic alphabet, abstract thinking, technology of tools, culture and civilizations, art, religion, industry, Bionics, Cloning, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence… Thus a MAN – NIRGUNA (SAPIENS – NIRGUNA), means a negation of these qualities or attributes, by saying that the Man (Sapiens) is not immortal, is not forever without possible replacement by his / her own technology and epistemology, that the Man (Sapiens) is not a divine Deity or Semi – Deity, that the Man (Sapiens) is not the alone intelligence within Universe, that the Man (Sapiens has not the power of creating through UNCAUSAL LOGOS, the Man – Sapiens has not the power of being with ABSOLUTE POWERS within Universe, Man – Sapiens has no qualities of naming oneself as the Peak of Evolution, because he / she has not the power of Creation and Evolution of the Universe (CREVO) or the power of Genesis plus Evolution (GENEVO)… To these multitude of questions with very difficult answers, to these multitude of dilemma, to these multitude of labyrinth ways, we, the author coming out of Classic Sapiens, is trying to cope with our Online Book, ENSAVATAR SAPIENS – 1!
