Earth, 2212: The novel, third in the Against The Machine trilogy,
yet free standing on its own, tells of a dystopian society in the
midst of catastrophic climate change. Billions have died. The
minority of people remaining inhabit the MEGs, former cities
transformed by technology into huge protective domes; outside is
the MASS living by subsistence. All seems well for those in the
CORPORATE. It is not. With worsening climate, the MASS increasingly
restive and their AI Silicons becoming sentient, those at the top
have concocted a final solution: to leave Earth for Alpha Centauri,
destroying the planet in their wake. Four protagonists, each from
separate segments of this world, come together to attempt to
prevent the plan. By the end they have managed to alter the
human/machine interface, so changing human evolution.
