Story
Hard to say when the human species fractured exactly. Harder to say when this new talent arrived. But Lion Zorn, protagonist of Last Tango, is the first of his kind—an empathy tracker, an emotional soothsayer, with a felt sense for the future of the we. In simpler terms, he can spot cultural shifts and trends before they happen. The Devil's Dictionary finds Lion Zorn enmeshed with a strange subculture: polyamorous crypto-currency fiends with a tendency toward eco-terrorism. These crypto-eco-punks have executed the largest land grab in US history.

Publisher's Summary
New York Times bestselling author Steven Kotler crafts a near-future thriller about the evolution of empathy.
Hard to say when the human species fractured exactly. Harder to say when this new talent arrived. But Lion Zorn is the first of his kind—an empathy tracker, an emotional soothsayer, with a felt sense for the future of the we. In simpler terms, he can spot cultural shifts and trends before they happen.
It’s a useful skill for a certain kind of company.
Arctic Pharmaceuticals is that kind of company. But when a routine em-tracking job leads to the discovery of a gruesome murder, Lion finds himself neck-deep in a world of eco-assassins, soul hackers and consciousness terrorists. But what the man really needs is a nap.
A unique blend of cutting-edge technology and traditional cyberpunk, Last Tango in Cyberspace explores hot topics like psychology, neuroscience, technology, as well as ecological and animal rights issues. The world created in Last Tango is based very closely on our world about five years from now, and all technology in the story either exists in labs or is rumored to exist. With its electrifying sentences, subtle humor, and an intriguing main character, listeners are sure to find something that resonates with them in this groundbreaking cyberpunk science fiction thriller.

great topic in a near flung world
distinct writing style pulls together so many points of current times into their logical expansions to explore a current problem, all wrapped up in a mystery novels. it's great, sometimes a little too referential for me, but worth reading or listening with the thought of that's how the main character thinks.

So relevant it's scary
I don't know where to begin in recommending this book. Once you realise what Kotler has entwined in the layers of the story you will be changed. The focus is so on point and the queues and nuances Kotler has picked up in social evolution to be utilised within are nothing short of genius. Don't just read it, take the time to understand it's importance.

Solid!
I really loved this story, I probably binged it too quickly actually.. The characters were solid, the story sent you on quite a wild journey, I loved the use of current and near future tech and culture as a past and present to set the scene. Great imaginative story telling!
