Story
What if you could travel anywhere, whether Europe, South America, or the remote reaches of the African continent? And what if you could choose not only your destination, but your era, as well-so that you might choose from the sparkling court society of 18th-century France, a 19th-century whaling ship out of New Bedford, or the streets of Dublin in the early part of the 20th century?

Well, the idea of a novel about the IT world didn't catch my attention for a long time, but now I can say that this book totally worth it. Sometimes is too flashy, too exaggerated, but what the hell, it is a novel, the author took the important parts quite seriously.

The number-one best-selling author of The Future of the Mind traverses the frontiers of astrophysics, artificial intelligence, and technology to offer a stunning vision of man's future in space, from settling Mars to traveling to distant galaxies. Formerly the domain of fiction, moving human civilization to the stars is increasingly becoming a scientific possibility - and a necessity. Whether in the near future due to climate change and the depletion of finite resources or in the distant future due to catastrophic cosmological events, humans will one day need to leave Earth.

constan repetition of different topics, the way the topics were sorted isn't the best. and some examples goes further of sci-Fi . however, many interesting topic are analized, real concens, and real benefits.
it could be improved a lot. I wish the autor release a new version less fictional.

The Internet and smartphone are just the latest in a 250-year-long cycle of disruption that has continuously changed the way we live, the way we work, and the way we interact. The coming Augmented Age, however, promises a level of disruption, behavioral shifts, and changes that are unparalleled. While consumers today are camping outside of an Apple store waiting to be one of the first to score a new Apple Watch or iPhone, the next generation of wearables will be able to predict if we're likely to have a heart attack and recommend a course of action.

this book changed my mind about the new technologies and it's application. I realized that had feared more the negative effect of new technologies but neglected most of the benefits. I think it Worth the time and the cost/subscription.
