Inhaltsangabe

Contains Danielle: Chronicles of a Superheroine and A Chronicle of Ideas: A Guide for Superheroines (And Superheroes)

Ray Kurzweil, legendary inventor and author of New York Times bestsellers The Singularity is Near and How to Create a Mind, has created inventions and ideas that have changed human civilization. PBS called him "one of the revolutionaries who made American," and Inc. magazine named him "Edison's rightful heir." Now Kurzweil has created a novel, and an unforgettable character - Danielle - to help convey some of his most important ideas. Chronicles of a Superheroine tells the story of a precocious girl who uses her intelligence and accelerating technologies to solve the world's grandest challenges.

The companion book to the novel, A Chronicle of A Guide for Superheroines (and Superheroes) is a nonfiction guide to the scientific, technological, medical, entrepreneurial, political, historical, literary, musical, philosophical, and psychological ideas that animate the world of Danielle, the novel's protagonist (and the world of the novelist too!). It provides Danielle's - and Kurzweil's - unique spin on 282 diverse concepts presented in the novel, everything from String Theory to Jimi Hendrix to cancer stem cells to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

The ideas in the novel are tagged with entry numbers. It is suggested that the novel be read side by side with the entries in this companion book.
