Future Imperfect describes and discusses a variety of

technological revolutions that might happen over the next few

decades, their implications and how to deal with them. Topics range

from encryption and surveillance through biotechnology and

nanotechnology to life extension, mind drugs, virtual reality and

artificial intelligence. One theme of the book is that the future

is radically uncertain. Technological changes already begun could

lead to more or less privacy than we have ever known, freedom or

slavery, effective immortality or the elimination of our species,

and radical changes in life, marriage, law, medicine, work and

play. We do not know which future will arrive, but it is unlikely

to be much like the past. It is worth starting to think about it

now.
