Food for Thought
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
When I was still in middle school, I was an avid reader of science fiction, more so then than I am now. That said, one of the few books I remember vividly was this one. I still bring up the stories and the rather extreme solutions when given the opportunity. If this book is anything, it is a 'food for thought' kind of book. The ideas the book illustrates has stayed with me for a longer time than I can remember, and, perhaps, they will affect you just as remarkably.
Perspectives on the Human Problem
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Many people would agree that humanity is currently on the path to its own destruction. The problem is, no two people would agree on how to get us off that path. The fourteen stories in this anthology provide some ideas on how this can be done. The nice thing about these stories is that they provide what may be feasible soltuions, while also demonstrating the complications that would arise from them. Some of these stories introduce concepts that are downright disturbing, and most of them are enjoyable.
