The Skeptics’ Guide to the Future: What Yesterday’s Science and Science Fiction Tell Us About the World of Tomorrow

bySteven Novella

Steven Novella's The Skeptics’ Guide to the Future investigates what yesterday’s science and science fiction tell us about the world of tomorrow, grounding a large subject in the people and choices that shaped it. Using scientific research, fieldwork, and carefully chosen case studies, The Skeptics’ Guide to the Future moves between close observation and a wider account of the systems surrounding its subject. By placing The Skeptics’ Guide to the Future within science and social science, the book reveals why its central tensions extend well beyond one person, place, or moment.
