The lack of transparency and accountability in organizations has made it difficult to identify, measure, and disclose their sustainable practices and impacts, creating a challenge for global sustainability efforts. Furthermore, there is a lack of consensus on the determinants and impacts of non-financial information reporting. In response to these challenges, Enhancing Sustainability Through Non-Financial Reporting, a book edited by Albertina Monteiro, Ana Pinto Borges, and Elvira Vieira, offers a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between sustainability practices and reporting, and the accounting, finance, and management fields. This book provides a platform for both academics and practitioners to share their empirical and theoretical research on the contributions of organizations to sustainable development, the determinants and impacts of non-financial information reporting, the role of sustainability reporting standards, and the challenges faced by accounting, finance, management, and auditing. It is an essential resource for anyone seeking to enhance sustainability through non-financial reporting and is relevant to a wide range of audiences, including academics, practitioners, and other interested individuals and groups.

By taking a religiously and spiritually literature approach, this volume gets the heart of several emerging ethical issues crucial to both human identity and personhood beyond the human as technology advances in the areas of human enhancement and artificial intelligence (AI). Several significant questions are addressed by the contributors, such as: How far should we go in improving our biological selves? How long should we aspire to live? What are fair and just human enhancements? When will AIs become people? What does AI spirituality consist of? Can AIs do more than project humour and emotions? What are the religious undertones of these high technology quests for better AI and improved human existence? Established and emerging voices explore these questions, and more, in Spiritualities, ethics, and implications of human enhancement and artificial intelligence. This volume will be of interest to university students and researchers absorbed by issues surrounding spiritualities, human enhancement, and artificial intelligence; while also providing points for reflection for the wider public as these topics become increasingly important to our common future.

Psychedelics are part of a resurgence of interest in consciousness studies, especially as altered states of consciousness are being re-examined in the context of psychedelic-assisted therapies. To date, discussions about psychedelics in modern medicine have been dominated by studies in biomedicine. However, given that cultural factors play a significant role in the subjective effects of psychedelics, psychedelics can be considered a uniquely powerful point of convergence between the cultural and biomedical. Writers and artists, alongside psychiatrists and pharmacologists, have participated in shaping ‘the psychedelic experience’ by drawing on a rich set of approaches that blend narrative, arts, and humanities concepts to explain and interpret psychedelic experiences and explore consciousness for creative purposes. Psychedelic studies, past and present, emphasize the importance of ‘set and setting’ or the context of psychedelic consumption and its paramount importance in shaping psychedelic experiences. These non-pharmacological factors rely on a different set of methods and interpretations that necessarily rely on studies conducted outside of the biomedical sciences.
