Yasmin - by Jerzy a Filar (Paperback)

About the Book

Can an isolated brain be trained to act like a computer? Could it unlock telepathy and be forgiven for influencing leaders to avert a climate change catastrophe?

Book Synopsis

Discover the power of Yasmin, a brain-computer separated from her body prior to birth. With a superior intellect, she embarks on a mission to save the world from the impending climate change catastrophe. But when she infiltrates the minds of powerful political decision makers in Washington D.C., Yasmin must confront the ethical implications of her actions and decide where her allegiance lies.

Follow her thrilling journey as she teams up with John Hawkins, the brilliant neuroscientist who invented her, and Barbara Steinwill, a dogged reporter. As they navigate uncharted territories, Yasmin, John, and Barbara explore what it means to be human, to experience love, and to have a sense of morality. If you were captivated by the thought-provoking exploration of AI in "Ex Machina" or the suspenseful plot of the "Wake-Watch-Wonder" trilogy, then you'll love this electrifying story.
