The old miracles--omniscience, omnipresence, even resurrection--are becoming standard operating procedure. But the real question isn't whether humanity can play god. It's whether we can do it wisely. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eWe Are as Gods: A Survival Guide for the Age of Abundance\u003c\/i\u003e, Peter H.

Blending hard science with vivid storytelling, they chart humanity's ascent from scarcity to superabundance--and the psychological, ethical, and existential challenges that come with it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Across breakthroughs in AI, robotics, genetics, longevity, and consciousness research, they reveal a paradox at the heart of progress: as our external power expands, our inner resilience must evolve to match. Abundance without meaning leads to collapse. Intelligence without wisdom leads to extinction. To thrive in a world of everything, everywhere, all the time, we must learn to wield our godlike powers with humility, creativity, and flow. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Equal parts warning and invitation, \u003ci\u003eWe Are as Gods\u003c\/i\u003e is a map for flourishing in the exponential century. Because the future won't be built by those who fear what's coming, but by those who know how to turn chaos into creation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Abundance is here.
