This book contains fascinating vignettes depicting future societies
and the implications which increasing technological change has on
society and the environment. The topics discussed include
nanotechnology, medicine, computational science, biotechnology,
synthetic biology, and cognitive technology, among others in
science. In addition, social norms, attitudes, and policy are also
featured. The upshot of this combination is an entertaining,
educational, and thought-provoking volume. The glimpses into future
societies subsequent to the introduction and incorporation of
various emerging technologies depict scenarios of how we view
ourselves, how we view others, how we are viewed by others, how our
surroundings are viewed, how our leaders and political structures
are viewed, what our social and behavioral norms are, what our
temperament/mood is, and so forth. The introduction features a
focused discourse on current trends of the impacts of emerging
technologies and the conclusion highlights where society should go
from here.
