Michael Dertouzos has been an insightful commentator and an active participant in the creation of the Information Age.Now, in What Will Be, he offers a thought-provoking and entertaining vision of the world of the next decade -- and of the next century. Dertouzos examines the impact that the following new technologies and challenges will have on our lives as the Information Revolution progresses:

• all the music, film and text ever produced will be available on-demand in our own homes
• your "bodynet" will let you make phone calls, check email and pay bills as you walk down the street
• advances in telecommunication will radically alter the role of face-to-face contact in our lives
• global disparities in infrastructure will widen the gap between rich and poor
• surgical mini-robots and online care will change the practice of medicine as we know it.

Detailed, accessible and visionary, What Will Be&nbsp is essential for Information Age revolutionaries and technological neophytes alike.
