Reading Response-Fools' Experiments

   Fools' Experiments, a book I currently halfway through is a science-fiction novel focusing on the several artificial intelligence experiments the characters participate, in with deadly results (at least in the first one). The book logically is set in the 21st century, and its spatial setting is a college in the midwest United States. I choose to read this book because I have strong interest in science and specifically the brain, and it caught my eye. The funny part is while some points raised in the book are well traveled others were novel experience for me to read.
   I know the story has a continuous character progression(that may be inaccurate, basically the same  characters mess up in the stories). I also understand that the main focus of the author in on the dangers of not taking proper precautions in an experiment. Nothing really made this book "stand out", and I actually simply picked this book randomly, just hoping it would be worth reading. The language, character development and the overall story arch all suggest this is going to be a good book.
   I currently think that while their creations may almost destroy them, in the end, the world will come out better overall.

  1. Another intriguing blog Terrell, science-fiction novels are always better with dynamic characters.
