The average American reads at 300 words per minute. My newly released
book of interviews with a dozen fascinating high-tech luminaries, “Architects of Tomorrow, Volume 2,” is roughly 55,000 words. That’s over three hours of
awesome brain food for only $1.99. The average U.S. movie ticket price is now
about $8. So seeing, say, Twilight: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 would only “entertain”
you for half the time, cost four times as much, and might even leave you
feeling temporarily lobotomized. In contrast, AoT Vol. 2 is an awesome value
for anyone even mildly interested in the history of technology, the online
sites and devices that now fill our world, or our technological future. Whether
as a treat for yourself or a gift for someone(s) you know, please consider my ridiculously
low-priced yet undeniably thought-provoking Kindle ebook. Any social media
recommendations and/or reviews on the book’s Amazon page would be like a
special holiday present and fill my heart with yuletide joy -- thank you!

Nolan Bushnell, Founder Of Atari
