Kay Dee launches her new novel The Entrapment

Image
  I was fortunate to meet Kay at a local author event and am currently reading her book. Definitely an eye-opener! Hello my name is Kay Dee. My most important role is being a mom to my young daughter. I enjoy sports however my all time favourite is soccer. I was a police officer for ten years and went through a very tumultuous time which included varies levels of the criminal justice system.

  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Sudbury Author Sounds a Warning About Coming Technology   Enhancing our brainpower with computers—is it a Pandora’s Box we don’t dare open?   Sudbury author Scott Overton is offering a cautionary story with his new science fiction novel Augment Nation . The augments referred to in the title are brain-computer interfaces (BCI)—small computerized devices directly linking our brains to powerful processors and even the internet. That’s the direction Overton sees consumer technology going within the next two decades, and we’ll need to be prepared.   Human brains with direct access to the internet. What could go wrong?   Since the age of fourteen Damon Leiter has had a brain-computer interface implanted beneath his skull to correct a neurological disorder.

When computerized brain augments replace smartphones
