Professional Reviews
|
| : |
Kirkus: "[W]hile some of the arguments are dense, the book repays close attention. An attractive picture of a plausible future; in 20 years, we may know if it actually works." (starred review), Publishers Weekly: "What's arresting...[is] the degree to which Kurzweil's heady and bracing vision...seems downright plausible." (starred review) |
