The age of spiritual machines

Description:

Imagine a world where the difference between man and machine blurs, where the line between humanity and technology fades, and where the soul and the silicon chip unite. This is not science fiction. This is the twenty-first century according to Ray Kurzweil. (From the back cover of the Penguin 2000 edition.)
