The Next Step: Exponential Life by Aubrey de Grey, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The Next Step: Exponential Life presents essays on the potential of what are known as “exponential technologies"—those whose development is accelerating rapidly, such as robotics, artificial intelligence or industrial biology—considering their economic, social, environmental, ethical and even ontological implications. This book’s premise is that humanity is at the beginning of a technological revolution that is evolving at a much faster pace than earlier ones—a revolution is so far-reaching it is destined to generate transformations we can only begin to imagine.
