This is a one page flyer about my new book on the technologies that are transforming society

1. GADGETS to GOD
A journey through the gadgets and technologies that have influenced my life and are about to bring almost
unimaginable changes to our world
Past the Tipping Point
Once the internet was “invented” in the 1990s by Tim Berners-Lee, the world
changed irreversibly and made the acceleration of change and innovation inevitable.
The implications of this tipping point are very profound. We may be on the final leg
of a journey where the destination is unknown and completely unpredictable.
Technological Fission or Fusion?
In the span of one man’s lifetime, the human race has begun an irreversible process
of transferring all its intelligence and knowledge of good and evil into the machines
that we humans previously needed all our skills and intelligence to get the best from.
Today it is these machines that are using their senses and intelligence to get the best
out of us human beings. The question is “What kind of world are we creating and will this path lead to the
liberation of the human race or its enslavement or, worse still, its destruction. Is this end of the beginning or the
beginning of the end?
Is this what the future holds?
• God is being created in the likeness of man
• The Old Testament is not about the past but about our future
• Have we already invented time travel?
• Treating modern day society like a nuclear reactor
• The most connected society in mankind’s history is also the least connected
• Immortality within our grasp
A Wake Up Call
This book is a journey through the gadgets and technologies that have influenced my life and are about to bring
almost unimaginable changes to our world. The span of my lifetime has seen a massive transformation in our
use of these technologies Where once we were masters of machines we may now become slaves. The
consequences of this shift in power are profound, unpredictable and potentially either disastrous or liberating for
the future of mankind. The choices we are making today about how, where and when we use the technologies
described in this book could well destroy civilization
