Klappentext

Imagine living in 1958, and knowing that the integrated circuit - the microchip - was about to be invented, and would revolutionize the world. Or imagine 1992, when the Internet was about to transform virtually every aspect of our lives. Incredibly, this book argues that we stand at such a moment right now - and not just in one field, but in many.
