Publisher's Synopsis
Twenty years from now, the next new technology shows up and completely changes society-like fire or electronics, it's the next really "big thing." Imagine a material, the size of a brick, that stores an immense amount of energy--enough energy to run a car for a year. A group of three entrepreneurs found a new world-changing company--a master negotiator, a ruthless investment banker, and a brilliant but reckless inventor. Together, they deal with a hostile energy industry and a federal government wary of their new-found economic clout. The internet is very different twenty years from now--it's been upgraded. It's on public boards, on your car's dashboard, and even on your soda can. Live video is available anywhere on the planet. People all over the world work via remote presence, and artificial intelligence is a commodity. It's where pixels and comps rule. But then an important, second innovation is discovered by our three entrepreneurs. We discover why we've never been able to find proof other intelligence exists in the universe--the radio signals were blocked. www.wayoftheaxe.com
