The layout and content of this book are fabulous. As a futurist librarian I love thinking about this stuff and getting students interested in questions of what it means to be human. The book starts a little slow with stuff students may think they already know, but if given permission to skip around they may come back to it. My students will love this.

I love this series that aims to help teenagers think through different topics and make an informed opinion. This book discusses a range of questions related to human evolution and what being human might mean in the future. It asks children to think about types of intelligence, living without sleep, the benefits and drawbacks of having perfect memory, body enhancements, possible issues with 'human rights' of digitalised people and so on. There is a wealth of information and memorable factoids, but for me the best feature of this book is question vignettes that contain thought-provoking discussion prompts.
