Synopsis
Computers are everywhere. Hailed as the shining stars of the modern age, they seem inescapable. Yet behind the glittering image lurks a threat that could prove devasting to mankind. Already it is asked, is the computer a Messiah or a monster? In this accessible and though-provoking book, Geoff Simons explores the computer's invasion of all our lives. The personal, social and military implications are profound: from loss of jobs, the threat presented by artificial intelligence to man's self-control through dependency of the computer. This book presents an analysis and a warning. Mankind's enthusiasm for the computer may well be blinding him to a spectrum of dangers. A previous book by Geoff Simons asked 'Are Computers Alive?' - now he asks whether computers are turning against their makers.
