The Dangers of Intelligence and Other Science Essays by Isaac Asimov
Requirements: .PDF reader, 8.4 Mb
Overview: In the title essay of this collection, all originally published in American Airlines’ in-flight magazine, Asimov observes that size, dietary habits, and fecundity might be better gauges of a species’ survival success than intelligence. (He cites rats and roaches as successful survivors.) Technology, not intelligence alone, has made homo sapiens successful; but it may also lead to its demise. Thus, the search for other civilizations is all the more urgent–it may provide us with evidence that technology and survival need not be mutually exclusive. All the pieces here combine similarly humorous, intelligent, and imaginative observations on a wide-ranging set of topics, including DNA, irrigated agriculture, the English language, and robots.
