Summary
"Dooling looks at what some of the greatest minds have to say about our role in a future in which technology rapidly leaves us in the dust. ... Dooling provocatively examines nothing less than what it means to be human in what he playfully calls the age of B.S.(before Singularity, the era when computers outthink humans)--and what life will be like when we are no longer alone with Mother Nature at Darwin's card table."--Dust cover
