Opis

We are on the cusp of a revolution. In the future, smart machines will compete with clever people for employment and even human affection. We are shifting from a world where people are paid to accumulate and distribute information to one where knowledge will be automated and people will be rewarded instead as conceptual and creative thinkers. Hence being able to think and act in ways that machines cannot will become vital. Ideas are the currency of this new economy and curiosity and imagination are among the key raw materials. But what happens to the rigour of our thinking in a world where we never really sit still or completely switch off? What are some of the unexpected consequences of digital information on the 100 billion cells and quadrillion connections inside our brains? If deep thinking is closely connected with successful long-term strategic planning and innovation, what are some of the immediate commercial consequences of instant digital gratification? In this absorbing new book, discover all about: The Sex Life of Ideas; Delving Deep Inside Your Head; The Rise of the Screenager; How to Clear a Blocked Brain; Generations, Gender and Geography; Why Clever People Make Dumb Mistakes; What We Can Do to Reclaim Our Brains; and, Why We Are So Afraid of Doing Nothing.
