Ray Kurzweilis one of the world's leading inventors, thinkers, and futurists. The recipient of many awards and honored with accolades such as "the ultimate thinking machine" ( Forbes) and the "rightful heir to Thomas Jefferson" ( Inc.), he is the author of four previous books.
For over three decades, Ray Kurzweil has been one of the most respected and provocative advocates of the role of technology in our future. In his classic "The Age of Spiritual Machines," he argued that computers would soon rival the full range of human intelligence at its best. Now he examines the next step in this inexorable evolutionary process: the union of human and machine, in which the knowledge and skills embedded in our brains will be combined with the vastly greater capacity, speed, and knowledge-sharing ability of our creations.

In his latest, thrilling foray into the future, a great inventor and futurist envisions an event--the "singularity"--in which technological change becomes so rapid and so profound that human bodies and brains will merge with machines.
