In The Surrender Experiment, Michael A. Singer tells the extraordinary story of what happened when, after a deep spiritual awakening, he decided to relinquish his personal fears and desires and simply let life unfold before him. Singer shares how this pivotal decision to embrace the flow of life led him to extraordinary success, sustained him through times of crisis, and allowed him to cultivate profound inner peace—whether as a young man pursuing a life of solitude in the woods, the founder of a thriving spiritual community in Florida, or the CEO of a billion-dollar medical software company.

Perspective

I suppose your mindset at the time of engagement with this book will dictate what the takeaway is.
I found the 7 business questions worthy of consideration. Especially since it comes from an author who has been there himself.

Lacking in detail
Revisado: 07-18-22
It’s one thing to acknowledge there is or might be a problem. It’s something entirely different to discuss what to do about it and the book never goes there.

For over three decades, the great inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil has been one of the most respected and provocative advocates of the role of technology in our future. In his classic The Age of Spiritual Machines, he argued that computers would soon rival the full range of human intelligence at its best. Now he examines the next step in this inexorable evolutionary process: the union of human and machine.

Information Masterbation
Revisado: 10-01-12
Would you consider the audio edition of The Singularity Is Near to be better than the print version?
If this wasn't on audio I would have never finished reading the book
Who was your favorite character and why?
It's not a character book. It's Ray's version of what future information technology will become.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
For a long time listening I thought Ray might have used one of his text to speech programs to narrate the book. There was very little tone inflection which made for a dry lecture.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Not really.
Any additional comments?
I was fascinated by Ray after watching a documentary and lecture on TED. He is definitely methodical and tries to close all the loops to his argument/thesis, but at the same time ties his audience around the axel.
I believe Ray's information theory is not only possible but inevitable (assuming we biological creatures don't kill ourselves first), but I don't believe Ray will be around to see it. I think he knows it. Therefore he is presenting a powerful argument in an attempt to plant the seed in the minds of humanity hoping it will force exponential growth to occur much sooner.
