The Spike: Accelerating into the Unimaginable Future
Broderick, Damian
ISBN: 0730104974
Kew, Vic. Reed Australia 1997
8vo softcover 280pp very good. What will life be like in the middle of the next century? How long will our children live? How dependent will we be on computers? How intelligent will our machines be? The rate of progress in many fields of research is accelerating fast - we are experiencing an exponential increase in our knowledge. For instance, within one generation computers have gone from filling whole rooms to being tiny laptops, while their computing power is doubling about every 18 months. The human genome is being unravelled, and today we are looking forward to some diseases being cured by gene surgery by the next decade. Whilst the future may be unpredictable, it is known that an explosion in human knowledge and abilities is expected to engulf us by about the middle of the next century. This text explains what research is going on in many fields and what life might be like in 50 years.
