Our Inevitable Genetic Future Houghton Mifflin - Publication scheduled April 2002 -- "Whether or not you agree with Stock's provocative
vision of the human future, you will come away with a deepened
understanding of the immense challenges ahead." "Gregory Stock's intellectual brilliance has brought us
a wonderful book that is fascinating to read and that everyone needs.
And his style is fluent and attractive. Whether or not you share his
vision of the future, this book will enthrall you."
METAMAN The Merging of Humans and Machines into a Global Superorganism In this visionary book, Gregory Stock gives us a new way of understanding our world and our future. He develops the provocative thesis that human society has become an immense living being - a global superorganism in which we humans, knitted together by our modern technology and communication, are like the cells in an animal's body. Drawing on impressive research, Stock shows this newly formed superorganism to be more than metaphor; it is an actual living creature, which he has named "Metaman," meaning "Beyond and transcending humans."

![]() The Book of Questions The #1 New York Times Bestseller, translated into 17 languages, this book poses 250 questions that invite people to explore the most fascinating of subjects: themselves. All of the questions are so fundamentally intriguing because they are about our very lives-our fundamental values and beliefs, our dreams and nightmares. Many thrust you into a value-testing hypothetical situation, others ask you about your past to help you find out if you've changed; and others reveal your basic nature by examining your behavior. Whether used as an avenue for personal growth, a tool for deepening relationships, a way to quickly get to know someone, or simply as an amusement, The Book of Questions may be the only publication that challenges the way readers view the world, without offering a single opinion of its own..
