Neil Gershenfeld. Learn
more about this book (hardcover) Gershenfeld, of the MIT Media Lab, was the technologist involved in Yo-Yo Ma's digital cello. As a physicist, musician and experimentalist he dismisses the line in the sand that many draw between computers and the rest of technology. He provides a practical view of what may be in our evolutionary path based on what what already exists. Several real world examples from the Media Lab (such as electronic paper and personal area networks) are discussed. |
Sullivan, Luke. The good, the bad, and the ugly of advertising. What is is that makes advertising, be it radio, TV, print, etc. stick? Lot's of great reviews. |

This is an EXCELLENT book which may open your eyes to situations and solutions for people and their "maybe not so unique" behaviors. Highly recommended for the innovative reader. |
