By mapping the behavior of life, we paradoxically get a glimpse at where technology is headed-or what it wants. Kevin Kelly offers a dozen trajectories in the coming decades for this near-living system. And as we align ourselves with technology's agenda, we can capture its colossal potential. This visionary and optimistic book explores how technology gives our lives greater meaning and is a must-read for anyone curious about the future.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>...consistently provocative and intriguing. <br> -<i>The Economist</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Kevin Kelly</b> is the cofounder of <i>Wired</i> magazine and was its executive editor for its first seven years.
