"I, Cyborg" - this book worth it?

Name: Anonymous 2006-04-28 2:32

So I found this book at the library at my college campus.  Guy's claiming to try and turn himself into a cyborg.  I checked it out (though I haven't read it yet), but the guy at the checkout table warned me that he's looked at Kevin Warwick's stuff before and apparently it's all bullshit.

Now, I don't have as much free time as I used to anymore, so I'm not wasting whatever precious free time I get on a worthless book (i'd rather waste my time on 4chan lol durrrrrrrrr) - but I'm not ready to dismiss the book just from one guy's statement.  What's your verdict on this, guys?  Should I really bother reading this book or are there better books on human/robot integration I should search for?

If things go according to plan, this guy is gonna be a future Lecturer of mine. From what I've read about him, it seems to be pretty small scale stuff so far eg: ultrasonic detection implant (I s'pose adding an entirely new sense isn't exactly small scale). He doesn't seem to say anything about becoming more machine than man anywhere.
