Description
Today, our future is being shaped by technology at such prodigious rates of speed; the ideals and morality of men struggle to keep pace. One fact that will never change though is the question about which direction these advances might take us. Information can never be contained, nor can the foibles of men.
In this author's view, humanity must either learn to control its future or restrain its predatory nature. Otherwise, filled with the power of technology and drunk on data, we may blindly guide our planet down the road of destruction and gloom. This book explores the ideas between two main philosophies. One states, "Destiny makes people who they are," while the second one proclaims, "Destiny is shaped by people." Whichever side you choose, the stories inside these pages seek to demonstrate that destiny lies ahead of us, not with us.
