Ambitious [and] fascinating [this] book is filled with tantalizing examples of futuristic goods and services.

Scientific American

Schmidt and Cohen make a formidable intellectual duo, combining Schmidts encyclopedic knowledge of digital technology with Cohens equally impressive grasp of international diplomacy and politics. The New Digital Age reads with surprising clarity, verve, and even occasional wit. Sophisticated analysis. Balanced and interesting.

The Huffington Post

Together [Schmidt and Cohen] forecast a raft of new innovations and corresponding threats that will arise for dictatorships, techno revolutionaries, terrorists, and you.

As tech-industry VIPs, Schmidt and Cohen deserve credit for probing the dark side of progress. In the wake of the Boston bombings, their warnings about the Nets dangers have gained chilling salience.

San Francisco Chronicle

A thorough book that provides an admirable overview of current disruptive trends in technology while attempting to predict how theyll reshape the relationships between states and citizens.

The Observer (UK)

This is for your must-read list. The authors have chosen to predict the future rather than polemicizing about how to achieve it. The upshot is a book packed with predictions on issues such as the future of states, revolution, terrorism, conflict, combat, citizenship and identity.

The Star (Toronto)

With vivid examples and brilliant analysis, it shows how the Internet and other communications technologies will empower individuals and transform the way nations and businesses operate. Realistic but deeply optimistic. Profoundly wise and wondrously readable.

There are insights on every page and surprising conclusions (and questions) in every chapter. For experts and casual readers alike, Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen have produced an indispensable book.

Former U.S. secretary of state Madeleine Albright

A brilliant book that should be required reading for anyone who wishes to understand the huge ramifications of the Age of Google not only for our lifestyles but, more importantly, for our privacy, our democracy and our security. The technoptimistic case will never be more smartly argued.

Niall Ferguson,
author of Civilization: The West and the Rest

Thoughtful, well-researched. Readers might be left with more questions than answers, but thats the ideawe are at our best when we ask Whats next?

Elon Musk,
cofounder of Tesla Motors and PayPal

The New Digital Age is must-reading for anyone who wants to truly understand the depths of the digital revolution.

This is a book that describes a technological revolution in the making. How we navigate it is a challenge for countries, communities and citizens. There are no two people better equipped to explain what it means than Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen.

The New Digital Age offers an intriguing fusion of ideas and insights about how the virtual world is intersecting with the Westphalian order. This book should launch a valuable debate about the practical implications of this new connectivity for citizens and policy makers, societies and governments.

Schmidt and Cohen offer a rigorous approach to decoding what the future holds in a story that is as well written and entertaining as it is important.
