World Without Mind: The Existential Threat of Big Tech

Argument. Franklin Foer offers a cogent argument about the threats from Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon, in a book titled, World Without Mind: The Existential Threat of Big Tech. Monopoly power has consequences and what we are gaining in benefits from these giant companies may not be sufficient when weighed against the evidence of what we are losing as individuals and as a society. To what extent are we willing to let these companies think for us? Whether you’re a tech booster or a queasy Luddite, reading this book gives you a foundational way to think about some of the major issues facing our evolving world. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase World Without Mind from amazon.com.
