Altho I'm not even half way through it, this book is enlightening in its description of future possibilities. I'm trying to understand Gilder's foresight into how the world can bridge into more personal interactions with less security issues. It's a bit above my head, but at least I'm getting exposed to the language (sometimes I have to look up words he uses, like satoshi and cryptocosm).

The book starts by getting deeply involved in history, which is required to understand the conclusions. It reveals a lot of information I was not aware of which shows how little we know or understand our economic and digital world.

The author is well-informed about his craft, useful information. His pedantic style of writing is hard to get through, however. (Pedantic=uses big words when a more easily understood word would be enough.)
