The Google library project -- an ambitious effort to digitize hundreds of thousands of texts from prestigious libraries -- has been named the single most important emerging technology for humanity by futurist Mike Adams in his free downloadable ebook, "The Ten Most Important Emerging Technologies For Humanity." In the downloadable book, available at TruthPublishing.com, Adams cites the Global Electronic Library as the #1 technology needed to uplift humanity due to its ability to enhance the accessibility of knowledge.

The Global Electronic Library, Adams envisions, would be funded by world governments and made freely available to every citizen, either through their home computers or online workstations at public facilities (such as brick-and-mortar libraries). At the time he wrote the book in the Fall of 2004, Adams was unaware that Google would step up to the plate and fund the project on its own.

"It's remarkable," says Adams, "that a commercial entity would have the courage and financial resources to take on this project." Construction and deployment of the Global Electronic Library is an enormous task, Adams explains, "...and yet I can think of no organization more capable of succeeding with this project than Google."

The Global Electronic Library is only one of ten emerging technologies cited by Adams as important for humanity. Others include augmented reality systems, where humans can interact with their natural environments through the help of virtual overlays that project objects, content, and even animated, interactive human characters onto the real world.

Superlearning systems, practical robots, vibrational medicine and fuel cell technologies are also cited in Adams' book. In all, the book offers a 63-page tour of technologies that promise to make a lasting difference in the quality of life for people everywhere. "If Google can complete the first item on this list," says Adams, "it will have a significant positive impact on the direction of human civilization."
