• A fascinating first-person story of a scientist who decided to transform himself into a cyborg to defeat the incurable disease that afflicted his CNS. • A real-life experience of using the very latest advances in robotics, AI and surgery to create a half-human, half-robot. • A description of an experiment that has the potential to change the future of terminally ill people. In 2017, American robotics scientist Peter Scott-Morgan was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a disease that doctors recognize as incurable (this ailment once destroyed Stephen Hawking's nerve cells). But Scott-Morgan didn't give up. He used extensive knowledge, experience and the latest technology to replace some of the affected functions of his body with electronics. Then the scientist decided to move his avatar to a computer using artificial intelligence and become Peter 2.0, so as not only to defeat the disease, but to get a chance for eternal life in the car. This book describes an experiment similar to the plot of a science fiction film, but completely real. Thanks to the efforts of the scientist, people with disabilities get a chance to survive. The Peter 2.0 experiment has the potential to change the future.
