Reading Nick Bostrom

£3.00

Nick Bostrom looks at humanity a bit like an actuary handed a very unusual file. This is a critical guide to his whole body of work, from the simulation argument and transhumanism to existential risk, superintelligence, digital minds and utopia.

It follows the arguments properly and takes them seriously. Then it tests them against the thing his method is worst at seeing: ordinary people in the middle of their lives, whose claims don't shrink just because someone multiplied them against a very large number.

What you get: a ZIP file containing the book as a PDF (151 pages) and an EPUB, so you can read it on a computer, tablet or e-reader.
