Sinopsis
From cochlear implants and pacemakers to bionic arms and legs, pioneering technological breakthroughs have changed lives.
For some people, particularly those with disabilities, recent advances have crossed the realm of imagination into reality. People with paraplegia can walk again, those who are hearing impaired can listen to even the faintest sounds, and people with missing limbs can create beautiful works of art. This phenomenal book is a celebration of all that has been achieved so far, and a look at what might be possible in the future. Is it inevitable that technology will surpass biology?
Human 2.0 has been reviewed by Mayo Clinic rehabilitation specialist Sherilyn Driscoll, MD.

Acerca del autor
Patrick Kane is a motivational speaker, campaigner, Ambassador to The UK Sepsis Trust. In 2010, he was fitted with a revolutionary bionic arm - the I-Limb Pulse, after contracting septicaemia as a baby. He has since gone on to carry the Olympic torch through Trafalgar Square as part of the London 2012 Olympic Games ceremony, spoke at TEDxTeen in 2014 and appeared at WIRED Next Generation in 2015.
Samuel Rodriguez is based out of San José, California and has seen his work shown in public art spaces, museums, companies, galleries and in editorial publications. For a number of years he was self-taught through the graffiti scene, until he later decided to expand his studies by pursuing a Bachelor in Fine Arts at California College of the Arts. Rodriguez has since blended what he absorbed from both experiences to create his current style.
