Our JUNE selection is Nexus

Our June book is Nexus by Ramez Naam.  We'll be discussing it on Wednesday, June 25th @ 7:00 pm.     Here's a summary of the book, courtesy of Goodreads:
In the near future, the experimental nano-drug Nexus can link human together, mind to mind. There are some who want to improve it. There are some who want to eradicate it. And there are others who just want to exploit it.



When a young scientist is caught improving Nexus, he’s thrust over his head into a world of danger and international espionage – for there is far more at stake than anyone realizes.



From the halls of academe to the halls of power, from the headquarters of an elite US agency in Washington DC to a secret lab beneath a top university in Shanghai, from the underground parties of San Francisco to the illegal biotech markets of Bangkok, from an international neuroscience conference to a remote monastery in the mountains of Thailand – Nexus is a thrill ride through a future on the brink of explosion.

If you need a copy of the book, please ask our Library staff.   If all of our copies are checked out, we can see if we can get it for you from another library.
