• A captivating first-person story of a scientist who decides to transform himself into a cyborg to defeat an incurable disease that has attacked his central nervous system.• A real-life experience of using the latest advances in robotics, AI and surgery to create a half-human, half-robot.• A description of the experiment that can 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 disease 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 transfer his avatar into a computer using artificial intelligence and become Peter 2.0, not only to defeat the disease, but to get a chance at eternal life in the machine. This book describes an experiment similar to the plot of a science fiction film, but completely real. Thanks to the efforts of a scientist, people with disabilities get a chance to survive. Peter's experiment 2.0 can change the future.

Quotes“It was winter. We set off in pursuit of the northern lights and climbed very far north of the Arctic Circle, where I soaked in a hot bath that day. Then he stood up—the water was still warm—and dried his entire body above the knees with a towel. He lifted his left foot, shook off the droplets like a dog who had stepped in something unpleasant, and placed it on the rug. I couldn’t shake off my right leg properly. It only swayed slightly.” “Every person is given the right from birth to change the world. I came to this conclusion on my sixteenth birthday, and I liked to think that the only way to achieve change is by breaking the rules.” “I spent about four months, if I’m not mistaken, in a stage of denial before finally accepting a new truth for myself. : It's probably not just a period. I’m probably not just experimenting with a new lifestyle that involves limited opportunities, and then returning to the usual pace of movement, like everyone else. I'm probably disabled now."
