Descripción

This book pierces through the fog of everyday life. Read and you will become aware of history you need to know, and of how the last few centuries of the human story sit within a much larger, epochal frame. An extra treat is insight into the remarkable Dyson family — Jaron Lanier ? Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right NowThe most delightfully peculiar book I’ve ever read. It’s grand and intimate, personal and cosmic, and about digital computing and archaic hunter gatherers. Every paragraph is a surprise — Kevin Kelly ? WiredAn odyssey of discovery … part autobiography, part science manual, part history book — Izabella Kaminska ? Financial TimesFew writers could string together a coherent and compelling tale out of elements as varied as the Bering-Chirikov expedition to Siberia in 1741, the construction of a US heliograph intelligence network, tree houses, kayak designs and the future of artificial intelligence. Dyson is one in this quirky personal history of technology. — John Tothill ? Financial TimesBrilliant … idiosyncratic … to read him is to be led on the strangest of adventures, on paths untread, up and down trees, and through rivers of time — Jason Kehe ? WIRED George Dyson is a historian of technology and the author of several books including Turing’s Cathedral, Project Orion and Darwin Among the Machines. His subjects range from the development (and redevelopment) of the Aleut kayak to the evolution of artificial intelligence.
