Read the future today! March 12, 1999 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In-depth enough to get your teeth into, but not too complex as to exclude the majority. The near future (up to 2020) is predicted with a fair amount of certainty - and is quite believable, with the mid-future (up to 2050) and longer-term future (up to 2200) also explained with rational and justifiable arguments. The author has enlisted the minds of a great many people at the top of their fields and as such lends credibility to the book. Very thought-inspiring.
Almost an almanac of 21st century science!? January 12, 1999 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In content it is something anyone could have written, knowing a bit about present science affairs and doing a bit of research. But who better than a well-respected scientist! It collates information from brains around all corners of the world, which founds some validity in the predictions. The book is written simply (i.e. for an educated layman) and even the sometimes laborious facts, somehow seem to encourage enthusiasm towards the next century. One to keep until 2020 (at least) to see whether these crystal-ball visions really do come true!
