Book Summary: The Inevitable, by Kevin Kelly: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future
This e-book is a 20 pages summary of Kevin Kelly's The Inevitable. Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future .
Kevin Kelly is one of the leading technology thinkers and writers. Co-founder and Senior Maverick of Wired Magazine. Founding member of The Long Now Foundation (which focuses in fostering long-term thinking and long-term responsibility). Nomadic photojournalist, publisher of The Whole Earth Catalog, and author of several books like What Technology Wants (2010), and often-cited inspiring articles like 1,000 True Fans.
Kelly has an impressive ability to think out of the box and analyze the implications of technology from different angles. With "inevitable", Kelly means that there is a bias in the nature of technology that tilts in certain directions and not others. "All things being equal, the physics and mathematics that rule the dynamics of technology tend to favor certain behaviors."
