Synopsis

Did you know that over 3 million emails are sent every second, the first robot was Czechoslovakian or that someone once hacked into a lightbulb with a drone?

Technology is inescapable and touches every aspect of our lives. But do we really know what it all means?
This book takes a deeply researched look into the modern world, covering everything from cryptocurrency and fake news to social media, robots, the dark web and cybercrime and a myriad of other topics, with a smattering of humour, politics and philosophy mixed in.

"A great book that clearly sets out the impact technology is having on our daily lives. Engaging writing that demystifies the jargon. Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants to understand but is too afraid to ask!"
