How do humans remember? How do machines store information? And what happens to knowledge in a world that generates more and more data?
The Science of Storage explores the history and future of one of the most important, yet often overlooked foundations of civilization: the preservation of information.
From the earliest forms of human memory to writing, archives, and libraries, and from hard drives and cloud systems to artificial intelligence and DNA storage, this book shows how storage has evolved over time—and why it matters more today than ever before.
But this is not only a book about technology. It also addresses some of the defining questions of our age:
What should be preserved?
What may be forgotten?
Who controls data?
And how does unlimited storage change the way we think?
Clear, accessible, and insightful, this book brings together science, history, and future perspectives in a fascinating exploration of humanity’s digital memory.
A book for everyone who wants to understand how information endures—and why that will shape our future.
