Do you think that the technology we use can tell a different side of us?

Enter a world where humanity has long vanished, But its legacy remains alive in the form of a mysterious artifact known as the ' Tech Conscious' Begin a thought - providing trip with the ' X' species, being who have risen to greatness beyond our imagination, in their investigation about humans called " Project: Conscious". You Play the essential role of the researcher in this interactive short story collection.

The book compiles 11 stories that explore various human emotions. The book is written in an interactive manner where each story is linked to a technology that the humans use and through that tech, the story is woven to show how we interact with each other. The book goes on to show how the technology can either improve our lives, or have a negative impact on ourselves as well as on those we interact with. The book is written with an easy to understand language and the stories are quite well written. The questions at the end of each story do keep you engaged as you are deeply involved and it becomes a collaborative experience. Keeping the stories in the past as well as the future is an interesting way to incorporate various technologies into the concept which adds a nice flavour to the book. The idea to bind all the stories through a common thread of “tech conscious” as a chip that leaked all the data is quite impressive.

Overall, this is a good read that scores a 4/5 for me.

Get a copy of the book on Amazon India.
