This is the most important - and fascinating - book yet
written about how the digital age will affect our world'' Walter
Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs From two leading thinkers, the
widely anticipated book that describes a new, hugely connected
world of the future, full of challenges and benefits which are ours
to meet and harness. The New Digital Age is the product of an
unparalleled collaboration: full of the brilliant insights of one
of Silicon Valley''s great innovators - what Bill Gates was to
Microsoft and Steve Jobs was to Apple, Schmidt along with Larry
Page and Sergey Brin was to Google - and the Director of Google
Ideas, Jared Cohen, formerly an advisor to both Secretaries of
State Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton. Never before has the
future been so vividly and transparently imagined. From
technologies that will change lives information systems that
greatly increase productivity, safety and our quality of life,
thought-controlled motion technology that can revolutionise medical
procedures, and near-perfect translation technology that allows us
to have more diversified interactions to our most important future
considerations curating our online identity and fighting those who
would do harm with it to the widespread political change that will
transform the globe through transformations in conflict,
increasingly active and global citizenries, a new wave of
cyber-terrorism and states operating simultaneously in the physical
and virtual realms to the ever present threats to our privacy and
security, Schmidt and Cohen outline in great detail and scope all
the promise and peril awaiting us in the coming decades. A
breakthrough book - pragmatic, inspirational and totally
fascinating. Whether a government, a business or an individual, we
must understand technology if we want to understand the future. ''A
brilliant guidebook for the next century ...Schmidt and Cohen offer
a dazzling glimpse into how the new digital revolution is changing
our lives'' Richard Branson
