Description

Analogia: A New Era of Human History In this groundbreaking book, technology historian George Dyson presents a compelling vision of the future. Drawing on his own experiences and extensive research, he reveals that we are entering a new epoch in human history, one driven by machines whose powers are no longer under programmable control. From the Russian American expedition of 1741 to the age of machine intelligence, Dyson enlists a diverse cast of characters to tell the story of how technology has shaped our world. With black-and-white illustrations, he brings this fascinating narrative full circle, exploring the possibilities and implications of a beyond-digital revolution. A thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of technology and human society, Analogia is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the future of our world.
