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.
