The Real Internet of Things

by Daniel Miessler

There is great confusion about what the Internet of Things means. This book lays out a technological future based on the intersection of evolutionary psychology, shared functionality desires, and a long-term vision of human society.

Broken into three themes of Prediction, Interface, and Evolution, it's an attempt to show what's coming so that we can start getting ready. Regardless of what forms it may take during gestation, this book describes what the Real Internet of Things will inevitably become.

[Daniel Miessler]

This is my book, so I don't think I'll rate it.

I'll just say that I recommend it to anyone who wants to know the future of the Internet of Things.

An interesting pespective worth reading

The author brings an interesting prospective in the prediction of our future when the IoT devices will be ubiquitous. Even if I don't agree with some of the arguments, nevertheless I found it stimulating. Certainly worth reading. My average score mainly due to the fact that the book is sometimes too repetitive and at the same time is too short: some of the topic like mesh networking and protocols could and shoild be expanded.

[Brian Newman]

A prescient take on where we are taking tech and it where it’s going in turn. Best predictions of the future I’ve read in a while and more importantly, coming together in 2023 when he wrote it many years ago.

[Ernestas Poskus]

The author explains somewhat utopic observations of the future yet insightful.
