Thought the science of the future was all hoverboards and space travel? Think again.
Every day, scientists come up with the ingenious solutions and surprising discoveries that will define our future. So here, Jim Al-Khalili and his crack team of experts bin the crystal ball and use cutting-edge science to get a glimpse of what's in store.
From whether teleportation is really possible (spoiler: it is), to what we'll do if artificial intelligence takes over, What's Next? takes on the big questions. And along the way, it'll answer questions like: Will we find a cure to all diseases? An answer to climate change? Will bionics make us into superheroes?
Touching on everything from genetics to transport, and nanotechnology to teleportation, What's Next? is a fascinating, fun and informative look at what's in store for the human race.
未來科技就是懸浮滑板和太空旅行嗎?再想一想。
科學家每天都會提出巧妙的解決方案與驚奇的發現,這些都將決定我們的未來。所以吉姆.哈里利與他的頂尖團隊丟掉水晶球並用尖端科學一探究竟。
傳送門是不是真的(據透:是真的)?如果人工智慧取代人類,我們會怎麼做?下一步會如何?這是個大哉問。接下來會回答如下問題:人類會找到治癒所有疾病的解藥嗎?能找到氣候變遷的對策嗎?仿生學能讓我們成為超級英雄嗎?
本書觸及的事物非常多元,從遺傳學到運輸,從奈米技術到傳送門,下一個會是什麼呢?《人類大未來》讓您看見人類未來迷人又豐富的發展。
