About This Book

"In early 1997, the Association for Computing Machinery celebrated its golden jubilee with a special conference and a book, Beyond Calculation: The Next Fifty Years of Computing."--BOOK JACKET.

"The success of Beyond Calculation led the ACM to produce this sequel, Talking Back to the Machine. This book captures the visions of the nineteen speakers at the ACM conference, most of whom were not represented in Beyond Calculation. Renowned experts all, they ponder how computers will influence the ways we function as individuals and within society in coming decades.

They describe the many different ways in which our lives may be altered by information technology and how we ourselves might shape things to come."--BOOK JACKET.
