The Handover: How We Gave Control of Our Lives to Corporations, States, and Ais
by David Runciman
View in Library Catalog
book cover


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.

book cover


For readers who have met New York author (and eventual resident of Maine) Lucy Barton in Strout’s other books, this is an interesting deep dive into her life. It focuses on a period in. Barton’s life where her children were young and she is in the hospital for nine weeks with a severe infection following routine surgery. Not sure if I would have enjoyed this story if I hadn’t read about Barton in Strout’s other books.

A beautiful book- After finishing, I recommended to my best friend who read it and loved it as well. Matt Haig can take something outlandishly fantastical and weave it into a storyline so believable and inspiring that you start look look for glimpses of that similar magic in your everyday life. A true delight!
