Includes bibliographical references (pages 253-279).The wave -- Computers -- Paper -- Entertainment -- Wallet -- Social networks -- Medicine -- Education -- Developing world -- New world.This ground-breaking analysis of the impact of mobile intelligence--the fifth wave of computer technology--argues that the changes brought by mobile computing are so big and widespread that it's impossible for us to see it all, even though we are all immersed in it. The current generation of mobile smart phones and tablet computers, in the hands of billions of people and accessible anywhere and anytime, are poised to become an appendage of the human being. With the perspective of a historian, the precision of a technologist, and the pragmatism of a CEO, Saylor provides a panoramic view of the future mobile world.--From publisher description.

Freedom : a novel / by Suarez, Daniel,1964-author.(CARDINAL)493754;
Sequel to: DaemonIn the opening chapters of Freedom(tm), the Daemon is firmly in control, using an expanded network of real-world, dispossessed darknet operatives to tear apart civilization and rebuild it anew. Soon civil war breaks out in the American Midwest, in a brutal wave of violence that becomes known as the Corn Rebellion. Former detective Pete Sebeck, now the Daemon's most powerful-though reluctant-operative, must lead a small band of enlightened humans toward a populist movement designed to protect the new world order. But the private armies of global business are preparing to crush the Daemon once and for all. In a world of conflicted loyalties, rapidly diminishing human power, and the possibility that anyone can be a spy, what's at stake is nothing less than human freedom's last hope to survive the technology revolution.
