The Road Ahead

Acting as project manager for the CD-ROM version bound in every book, The Road Ahead profiles Bill Gates—who built Microsoft into one of the most successful companies in the world—and gives us his vision of what the future holds for us. The Road Ahead is his bird's-eye view of the undiscovered territory of the digital age—an authoritative, thought-provoking, and very readable travel guide for the journey. In this optimistic and refreshingly realistic book, Gates looks ahead to show how the emerging technologies of the digital age will transform all our lives. As he says, we are on the brink of a new revolution, and crossing a technology threshold that will forever change the way we buy, work, learn, and communicate with each other.
