Title : Where will man take us ?

Author : Atul Jalan
Publishers : penguin publication

Pages : 318
Format : Paper Back



One sentence for this book : " A techno-freak book"
This book 'WHERE WILL MAN TAKE US?' by Atul Jalan has so much to gain knowledge about future technologies from . The author has discribed  humanoids , nanotechnologies , Artificial intelligence , robotics in very informative and useful manner. Author also talks about the 'Individual privacy' which is no more in the hand of humans . He has made clear points by mentioning various people and describing it in best way it could have been possible like educationalist , Scientists , historians etc. Author also explains the effects of the technology on our day to day human dynamics.
The author has made good efforts to craft this techno freak' book , which absolutely needs a lot of knowledge and research. Though it's a non - fiction book and provides a lot of knowledge , the language was really simple and quite complex with some techno words which needed Google for sure , the flow and the grammar in the book is lucid . Talking about the cover , the bright yellow colour with drones and flies attracts the reader , the title of the book completely gives Justice to the plot.
The book had some blank pages in the middle and last which were of no use. I was bored while reading at a point because it was too much on technologies and advancement that I am not fond of but if you are some one who loves to get knowledge about the future advancements in technology this book is highly recommended to you.The fluency in language is the beautiful thing in this book.
