Eine revolutionäre Erfindung – und ihre Zukunft. Tim Berners-Lee ist der womöglich einflussreichste Erfinder der modernen Welt. Geboren im selben Jahr wie Bill Gates und Steve Jobs, teilte er seine Erfindung, das World Wide Web, ohne sie kommerziell zu verwerten. Auch deshalb konnte sich diese Technologie so schnell über den gesamten Globus verbreiten. Mit ihr wurde die Menschheit zur ersten digitalen Spezies: Hier, im Web, vernetzen wir uns, hier leben, arbeiten, streiten und träumen wir.

Our society has a technology problem. Many want to disconnect from screens but can't help themselves. These days we spend more time online than ever. Some turn to self-help measures to limit their usage, yet repeatedly fail, while parents feel particularly powerless to help their children. Unwired: Gaining Control over Addictive Technologies shows us a way out. Rather than blaming users, the book shatters the illusion that we autonomously choose how to spend our time online. It shifts the moral responsibility and accountability for solutions to corporations.

In Places of the Heart, Colin Ellard explores how our homes, workplaces, cities, and nature - places we escape to and can’t escape from - have influenced us throughout history and how our brains and bodies respond to different types of real and virtual space. As he describes the insight he and other scientists have gained from new technologies, he assesses the influence these technologies will have on our evolving environment and asks what kind of world we are, and should be, creating.

Business is on the cusp of an inevitable and profound transformation. The tools of tomorrow will amplify human potential, from collaborating in virtual spaces through digital avatars, to managing transactions transparently on the blockchain. Those who embrace these technologies—and the manner in which people want to work—will unleash unprecedented levels of productivity and innovation. Conversely, those who remain tethered to outdated work patterns risk losing out on the best talent, and even becoming obsolete.
