Dr Jordan Nguyen releases new book “A Human’s Guide to the Future“, which zooms in on how humanity can thrive through our rapidly changing technological landscape.
Technology is evolving at the fastest rate we’ve ever seen, but it may be the slowest rate we’ll ever see again!
What does this mean for the future of the human race? Do we resist these changes or embrace them?
Australian biomedical engineer, inventor and visionary Dr Jordan Nguyen has lived a life of curiosity and wonder – exploring positive opportunities in science and technology, including robotics, artificial intelligence, bionics, extended reality and avatars. He believes that technology is a powerful tool that we as humans can choose to harness to create a better tomorrow.
In A Human’s Guide to the Future, Dr Jordan takes us on a journey through the exciting innovations being developed around the world, along the fun and imaginative rollercoaster of his own adventures, and to envisage where our collective future is headed.
So get your undies on the outside of your pants and slap on your best cape, because we’re hurtling towards a new era. A Superhuman Era!
Dr Jordan Nguyen’s mission in life is to improve the lives of as many people as possible and to be a driving force behind positive human and technological evolution into the future.
