The Most Human Human: What Talking with Computers Teaches Us About What It Means to Be Alive by Brian Christian

November 9, 2011

“The Most Human Human left me exhilarated, the way I feel after I've been at a dinner party and sat next to some exceedingly bright, kind and creative soul. This book is somehow able to be a fascinating narrative (will he be chosen The Most Human Human?), a philosophical meditation, a practical self-help text and an introductory course on computers—all of them well written, clear and gracefu

how to get

l. This feels to me very much a book for our time, our culture—asking intelligent, necessary questions and offering deeply thoughtful and helpful possible responses.”—Christine, Open Books, Seattle. Buy The Most Human Human from your local indie.
