Work Mate Marry Love: How Machines Shape Our Human Destiny
A crucial guide to life before--and after--Tinder, IVF, and robots. What will happen to our notions of marriage and parenthood as reproductive technologies increasingly allow for newfangled ways of creating babies?

Er det kun den teknologiske udvikling, der ændrer sig? 2040 er 10 unge, grønlandske forfatteres forestillinger om, hvordan Grønland (og andre dele af Verden) ser ud i år 2040 – en fremtid der synes fjern, og så måske alligevel ikke.
