Runciman tries to work a large amount of information into a tight book. He charts a unique comparison of the 'intelligence' function of states, corporations, and the implications of AI. Much of what he says is an argument against the ideas of centralized 'intelligence.' He discusses in some detail the implication on copyright and intellectual property from AI and mostly frames the deleterious effects of AI usage and development from a left-wing lens.

Because it kept me entertained

It was a very good book for teens and older kids

This book was a brave step toward understanding and acceptance, especially for being published in 2012. The lines near the end at the romantic climax are annoyingly cliche but overall the book has an amazing message. The range of topics discussed in the book such as sexuality and racial identity were nearly impossible to cover during the time this book was bu

Book was great! Worked on gh sounds and read the book 2x

It's funny

My fav book!!

This book brings Jack and Annie to Australia. They obtain the final gift they need to help the dog Teddy and finish their four-part quest. We learned about kangaroos and there was a scary wildfire.

Great book. Highly recommend for 4th graders and up.
