Talking dolphins . . . Underwater cities . . . Two-hundred-year
life spans . . . Welcome to the present
People have always imagined what life would be like in the
future. Most of the time they've been wrong. Often they were
really, really wrong. Your Flying Car Awaits looks at the most
outrageous predictions from twentieth-century scientists,
novelists, and social commentators, detailing the technologies and
philosophies that led some great (and not so great)minds to think
the ridiculous was achievable. Includes phenomenally inaccurate
predictions such as: Space tourism will be ubiquitous by the year
2000Nuclear explosives will be used for commercial
demolitionEngineered and man-made oceans will cover the
planetWeather will be as predictable and controllable as a train
schedule
An eye-opening, fascinating, and endlessly entertaining
collection of truly boneheaded scientific predictions from the past
hundred years, Your Flying Car Awaits shines an illuminating light
on the people of the previous century by examining the ridiculous
theories they envisioned about this one.
