In his provocative new book, The Inevitable, Wired Magazine founder Kevin Kelly provides a future-forward guide through the dozen technological imperatives that will shape the next 30 years and transform our lives. In his new book, Kelly takes on the role of futurist, showing how the coming changes in our livesfrom virtual reality in the home to an on-demand economy to artificial intelligence embedded in everything we manufacturecan be understood as the result of a few long-term, accelerating forces.
Kevin Kelly believes these forces will completely revolutionize the way we buy, work, learn and communicate with one another. He provides a road map to the future, envisioning humanity and machines as a global matrix and a convergence that will be seen as the largest, most complex and most surprising event ever up to this time.
John Markoff is a Senior Writer for the New York Times and is the author of Machines of Loving Grace: The Quest for Common Ground Between Humans and Robots. In 2013, he was part of the New York Times team awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting.
