This provocative book introduces a brand-new view of technology. It suggests that technology as a whole is not a jumble of wires and metal but a living, evolving organism that has its own unconscious needs and tendencies. Kevin Kelly looks out through the eyes of this global technological system to discover "what it wants." He uses vivid examples from the past to trace technology's long course and then follows a dozen trajectories of technology into the near future to project where technology is headed.

Brilliant ideas, extravagant conclusions
Revisado: 08-04-22
There are many thought-provoking insights that are mind-expanding, unfortunately, these all get extrapolated into an almost preachy defense of why this must all be correct. It is a well thought-out theory that could have been better articulated in about half the time. The author is perpetually taking the long way around and in the final chapter you understand that he is more emotionally invested in his concepts than academically critical. Everything you would expect from a futurist, but the writing just drags on and on somewhat pretentiously defensive.
