All three books seemed appealing, but based upon the reviews or lack of, I have chosen Race Against the Machine: How the Digital Revolution is Accelerating Innovation, Driving Productivity, and Irreversibly Transforming Employment and the Economy. This book seems to be the most interesting and the easiest to read.

Sammy,
When searching for potential books I also came across Race Against the Machine, however I did not choose to look into it extensively. I'm looking forward to seeing what it is about in more detail and am curious to see what your reactions to it are.
