Our world is at a crossroads. Personal gadgets are getting smarter, and technology is increasingly shaping public life too - logging everything from crime figures to how much we recycle, pollution levels to politicians' voting records. But what will the effect of this new transparency be on us? When we quantify our actions, do we change our motivations? Is a world without opacity one where we can be free? By saving everything, Evgeny Morozov argues, we are profoundly reshaping society - and risk losing the imperfection that makes us human. 'An intellectual joyride.' The Times 'A clear voice of reason and critical thinking in the middle of today's neomania.' Nassim Taleb, author of The Black Swan 'If you've ever had the niggling feeling, as you spoon down your google, that there's no such thing as a free lunch, Morozov's book will tell you how you might end up paying for it.' Brian Eno 'A devastating exposé of cyber-utopianism.' John Gray 'He sees the world-transforming dreams of the valley for what they are - a new version of the scientistic, technocratic, utopian fantasies that have periodically surfaced over the past few centuries.' Bryan Appleyard, Sunday Times 'A relentless dragon-slayer in the puffed-up world of internet punditry.' Financial Times
