Business cycles: A methodological approach
TL;DR: Acemoglu et al. as mentioned in this paper showed that business cycles are both less volatile and more synchronized with the world cycle in rich countries than in poor ones, and they developed two alternative explanations based on the idea that comparative advantage causes rich countries to specialize in industries that use new technologies operated by skilled workers, while poor countries specialize in traditional technologies operate by unskilled workers.

Brain–machine interfaces: past, present and future
TL;DR: This paper discusses designing a fully implantable biocompatible recording device, further developing real-time computational algorithms, introducing a method for providing the brain with sensory feedback from the actuators, and designing and building artificial prostheses that can be controlled directly by brain-derived signals.

Technics and Civilization
TL;DR: The first comprehensive attempt in English to portray the development of the machine age over the last thousand years was made by Lewis Mumford as discussed by the authors, who argued that it was the moral, economic, and political choices we made, not the machines that we used, that determined our industrially driven economy.
