Andrew McAfee is the Co-Director of the IDE and a Principal Research Scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management.

In addition to having numerous papers published, McAfee also writes a widely read blog, which is at times one of the 10,000 most popular in the world. He is the author or co-author of more than 100 articles, case studies and other materials for students and teachers of technology. Prior to joining MIT Sloan, McAfee was a professor at Harvard Business School. He has also served as a fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law School. McAfee received his doctorate from Harvard Business School, and completed two Master of Science and two Bachelor of Science degrees at MIT. He speaks frequently to both academic and industry audiences and has taught in executive education programs around the world.

Review :
"A brilliant look at the future that technology is bringing to our economic and social lives. Read The Second Machine Age if you want to prepare yourself and your children for the world of work ahead."--Zoë Baird, president, Markle Foundation "A masterful job of exploring both the promise of computer technology and its profound societal impact."--Carl Bass, CEO of Autodesk "A whirlwind tour of innovators and innovations around the world. But this isn't just casual sightseeing. Along the way, they describe how these technological wonders came to be, why they are important, and where they are headed."--Hal Varian, chief economist at Google "After reading this book, your world view will be flipped: you'll see that collective intelligence will come not only from networked brains but also from massively connected and intelligent machines."--Nicholas Negroponte, cofounder of the MIT Media Lab, founder of One Laptop per Child, and author of Being Digital "An important book on the technology-driven opportunities and challenges we all face in the next decade. Anyone who wants to understand how amazing new technologies are transforming our economy should start here."--Austan Goolsbee, professor of economics at the University of Chicago "Brynjolfsson and McAfee are right: we are on the cusp of a dramatically different world brought on by technology. The Second Machine Age is the book for anyone who wants to thrive in it. I'll encourage all of our entrepreneurs to read it, and hope their competitors don't."--Marc Andreessen, cofounder of Netscape and Andreessen Horowitz "Brynjolfsson and McAfee do an amazing job of explaining the progression of technology, giving us a glimpse of the future, and explaining the economics of these advances. And they provide sound policy prescriptions. Their book could also have been titled Exponential Economics 101?it is a must-read."--Vivek Wadhwa, director of research at Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering and author of The Immigrant Exodus "Excellent."--Bloomberg "Fascinating."--Salon "In this optimistic book Brynjolfsson and McAfee clearly explain the bounty that awaits us from intelligent machines. But they argue that creating the bounty depends on finding ways to race with the machine rather than racing against the machine. That means people like me need to build machines that are easy to master and use. Ultimately, those who embrace the new technologies will be the ones who benefit most."--Rodney Brooks, chairman and CTO of Rethink Robotics, Inc "Maddeningly reasonable and readable."--Thomas Claburn, InformationWeek "My favorite book so far of 2014. Both hopeful...and realistic."--Joshua Kim, Inside Higher Education "Offers important insights into how digital technologies are transforming our economy, a process that has only just begun."--Reid Hoffman, coauthor of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Start-up of You "Optimistic and intriguing."--The Washington Post "Technology is overturning the world's economies, and The Second Machine Age is the best explanation of this revolution yet written."--Kevin Kelly, senior maverick for Wired and author of What Technology Wants "This provocative book is both grounded and visionary, with highly approachable economic analyses that add depth to their vision. A must-read."--John Seely Brown, coauthor of The Power of Pull and A New Culture of Learning "Truly helped me see the world of tomorrow through exponential rather than arithmetic lenses. Macro and microscopic frontiers now seem plausible, meaning that learners and teachers alike are in a perpetual mode of catching up with what is possible. It frames a future that is genuinely exciting!"--Clayton M. Christensen, Kim B. Clark Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School, and author of The Innovator's Dilemma "What globalization was to the economic debates of the late 20th century, technological change is to the early 21st century. Long after the financial crisis and great recession have receded, the issues raised in this important book will be central to our lives and our politics."--Lawrence H. Summers, Charles W. Eliot University Professor at Harvard University "Will our new technologies lift us all up or leave more and more of us behind? The Second Machine Age is the essential guide to how and why that success will, or will not, be achieved."--Garry Kasparov, thirteenth World Chess Champion PRAISE FOR MORE IS LESS--PRAISE FOR MORE IS LESS
