About this product
Product Information
Inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil examines the next step in the evolutionary process of the union of human and machine. Kurzweil foresees the dawning of a new civilization where we will be able to transcend our biological limitations and amplify our creativity, combining our biological skills with the vastly greater capacity, speed and knowledge-sharing abilities of our creations. In practical terms, human ageing and illness will be reversed; pollution will be stopped and world hunger and poverty will be solved. There will be no clear distinction between human and machine, real reality and virtual reality. 'The Singularity is Near' offers a view of the coming age that is both a dramatic culmination of centuries of technological ingenuity and a genuinely inspiring vision of our ultimate destiny.

- n***o (208)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThank you for your careful packaging. All the items have arrived safe and sound. I have had a perfect interaction with this seller and the items I've bought are exactly what I was shown and I'm extremely happy with my purchase. I'm pretty sure that I got my money's worth as there were others for sale which were way more expensive and well out of my financial reach. I believe that this seller is in Australia and it was refreshing to deal with a fellow Aussie.4x Stunningly Beautiful Noritake Epoch Collection 'Floral Bay' Small Bowls, E.C. (#225986583813)
- b***1 (94)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseGlasses were packaged very well and arrived safely. Postage was fine. A little disappointed that one glass was 10mm shorter than the other pair which wasn't specified in the description. Quite a noticeable difference in the size clearly from different batches when made.
