Praise for The Singularity Is Near 
One of CBS News’s Best Fall Books of 2005Among St. Louis Post-Dispatch’s Best Nonfiction Books of 2005One of Amazon.com’s Best Science Books of 2005 
“Anyone can grasp Mr. Kurzweil’s main idea: that mankind’s technological knowledge has been snowballing, with dizzying prospects for the future. The basics are clearly expressed. But for those more knowledgeable and inquisitive, the author argues his case in fascinating detail. . . . The Singularity Is Near is startling in scope and bravado.”

The book’s claims are so footnoted, documented, graphed, argued, and plausible in small detail, that it requires the equal in response. Yet its claims are so outrageous that if true, it would mean . . . well . . . the end of the world as we know it, and the beginning of utopia. Ray Kurzweil has taken all the strands of the Singularity meme circulating in the last decades and has united them into a single tome which he has nailed on our front door.
