I found this book to contain many interesting points about how growing technology is effecting how we eat, see and look.
The layout was interesting. Every two pages or so started a new sub-topic under which a new idea was brought up and discussed which were in the forms of a short essey, all of which were reinforced with references and/or quotations.
Christopher Dewdney incorperated his immence ability to write poetry in smoothly with his essays. This is not to say that he stuck a poem in every paragraph; however, he managed to express his feelings about the subject without sacrificing the integrity of the fact that it IS an essay.
To close I must say that this is a beautifully written book full of interesting information and insites.

"Resistance is Futitle"
13 Aug 2003
Format:Paperback
An interesting view ... interesting. Kind'a the future of humanity as Borgs. he brings some very keen points to light. For instance, after reading a section on how people separte themseleves from the people surrounding them, I can't wear earphones from my CD player anymore. I see it as rude now, where before I didn't give it a second thought.
