Synopsis
In his latest, thrilling foray into the future, a great inventor and futurist envisions an event--the "singularity"--in which technological change becomes so rapid and so profound that human bodies and brains will merge with machines., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Celebrated futurist Ray Kurzweil, hailed by Bill Gates as "the best person I know at predicting the future of artificial intelligence," presents an "elaborate, smart, and persuasive" ( The Boston Globe ) view of the future course of human development. "Artfully envisions a breathtakingly better world."-- Los Angeles Times "Startling in scope and bravado."--Janet Maslin, The New York Times "An important book."-- The Philadelphia Inquirer At the onset of the twenty-first century, humanity stands on the verge of the most transforming and thrilling period in its history. It will be an era in which the very nature of what it means to be human will be both enriched and challenged as our species breaks the shackles of its genetic legacy and achieves inconceivable heights of intelligence, material progress, and longevity. While the social and philosophical ramifications of these changes will be profound, and the threats they pose considerable, The Singularity Is Near presents a radical and optimistic view of the coming age that is both a dramatic culmination of centuries of technological ingenuity and a genuinely inspiring vision of our ultimate destiny., "Startling in scope and bravado." --Janet Maslin, The New York Times "Artfully envisions a breathtakingly better world." -- Los Angeles Times "Elaborate, smart and persuasive." -- The Boston Globe "A pleasure to read." -- The Wall Street Journal One of CBS News 's Best Fall Books of 2005 - Among St Louis Post-Dispatch 's Best Nonfiction Books of 2005 - One of Amazon.com's Best Science Books of 2005 A radical and optimistic view of the future course of human development from t he bestselling author of How to Create a Mind and The Age of Spiritual Machines who Bill Gates calls "the best person I know at predicting the future of artificial intelligence" For over three decades, Ray Kurzweil has been one of the most respected and provocative advocates of the role of technology in our future. In his classic The Age of Spiritual Machines , he argued that computers would soon rival the full range of human intelligence at its best. Now he examines the next step in this inexorable evolutionary process: the union of human and machine, in which the knowledge and skills embedded in our brains will be combined with the vastly greater capacity, speed, and knowledge-sharing ability of our creations., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Celebrated futurist Ray Kurzweil, hailed by Bill Gates as "the best person I know at predicting the future of artificial intelligence," presents an "elaborate, smart, and persuasive" ( The Boston Globe ) view of the future course of human development.
