520    "Over the past century, humankind has managed to do the 
       impossible and rein in famine, plague, and war. For the 
       first time ever, more people die from eating too much than
       from eating too little; more people die from old age than 
       from infectious diseases; and more people commit suicide 
       than are killed by soldiers, terrorists and criminals put 
       together. The average American is a thousand times more 
       likely to die from binging at McDonald's than from being 
       blown up by Al Qaeda. What then will replace famine, 
       plague, and war at the top of the human agenda? As the 
       self-made gods of planet Earth, what destinies will we set
       for ourselves, and which quests will we undertake? Homo 
       Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that 
       will shape the twenty-first century -- from overcoming 
       death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental
       questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we 
       protect this fragile world from our own destructive 
       powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo 
       Deus."--Publisher's Web site.
