What I like about the book is the clear language, definition of major concepts, and conclusions at the end of each chapter." (Ahmet E. Cakir, Behaviour & Information Technology, March, 2016) "If you are curious or concerned about the fate of our culture vis-a'-vis the impact of artificial intelligence, artificial brains, transhuman technology, and simulated humans, then Cyber-Humans: Our Future with Machines is a must-read book for you. The author does a superb job of providing a succinct overview of the momentum of development and adoption of cyber-human technology and the relevance to our future. ... Cyber-Humans is both succinct and comprehensive, with concepts, analysis, theories, examples, and detailed references." (Walter Greenleaf, Presence, Vol. 25 (2), 2016)
