Book Synopsis Reality Ahead of Schedule by : Joel Levy
Download or read book Reality Ahead of Schedule written by Joel Levy and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rich visual history of science fiction's impact on real-world technologies, this book is perfect for lovers of H. G. Wells, Star Trek, Isaac Asimov, Jules Verne, Aldous Huxley, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. Have you ever wished for a personal jet pack or a robot butler? Do you wonder how you would fare as an interplanetary traveler? Are you eagerly awaiting driverless cars? Reality Ahead of Schedule explores how what we imagine about the future has influenced our ability to make those ideas into reality. There are many vital technologies that science fiction not only predicted, but also helped bring into being. Through lively narration and lavish illustrations, the book presents technological developments in the military, consumer, space exploration, medical, and communications fields. It explores the writers, futurists, and far-sighted inventors whose visions became realities, from the direct influence of H. G. Wells on the atomic bomb and the tank, to the ambitious prototypes created by inventors ahead of their time, such as Nikola Tesla's remote-controlled drone ship. The history and development of each technology is related in context, exploring the road from prescient fictional representation to real-life technology. Reality Ahead of Schedule offers readers the chance to meet and understand the impact of some of the greatest names and works in sci-fi, from Jules Verne and Aldous Huxley to Arthur C. Clarke and Isaac Asimov, Star Trek to the Bionic Man, alongside visionary inventors such as Tesla and Wernher von Braun.

Book excerpt: We would all like the world to become a better place. Laws and programs are helpful and are designed with good intentions, but there’s only so much they can do. It really comes down to each person doing his part to live life as problem-free as possible for him. Since no one is an island unto himself, anyone’s lack of personal responsibility or good ethics affects others – whether just those close to him or the general population.

Instead of relying on the remote possibility of consistent GOOD LUCK, learn how to consider, prepare for, and optimally handle nearly every situation you might encounter in life to ensure that you reap rewards for the efforts you have to expend to live either way. Discover how you can become a more knowledgeable, resilient and worthwhile contributor to society by improving your own life! Feel earned pride and deserved respect at any socioeconomic level. Learn how to create the optimal circumstances in areas of your life such as: RELATIONSHIPS, FINANCES, SELF-CARE, SEX, DRUGS, LAWS, RAISING CHILDREN, and more.

Book Synopsis Reality, in No Particular Order by : Dana L. Turner
Download or read book Reality, in No Particular Order written by Dana L. Turner and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2023-12-07 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is scientifically broken, with protagonists, antagonists, and others battling it out, attempting to hold on to centuries-old, flawed beliefs. Reality, in No Particular Order allows you to look at the world without wearing the rose-colored glasses from your school days. The author challenges numerous assumptions, particularly global warming. The threat, he argues, is not carbon dioxide but rather unconstitutional government edicts intended to take away your freedom using “monster under the bed” tactics. He writes, “For decades, the world stage has been set ablaze by various governmental agencies and their toadies in the media using contrived atmospheric models to promote the idea of global warming and climate change with the only result being increased regulation. Has even one of a myriad of predicted worldwide disasters been mitigated over the past fifty years, or is there an ever-increasing number waiting to destroy us? Centuries ago, Aesop wrote a fable about a boy who cried wolf. The current book of fables is a greatly enlarged, modern edition written by ‘scientists’, edited by the government, and peddled by ignorant, overbearing celebrities, and billionaires who wish to control you by frightening you with imaginary wolves.”

Download or read book Jumping written by Jane Peranteau and published by Hampton Roads Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jumping is a work of visionary fiction that begins with a nihilistic act. The main character, a young man, feels life’s limits are killing him, drives to a remote area, walks 100 yards, and leaps into a dark and mysterious chasm, known locally as the “Void.” Friends and family are stunned. What he meets in the Void is his own larger spiritual history—a cohort of souls he incarnated with, a string of past lives he visits—and he’s changed profoundly and permanently. Because of his story, others jump. What are they jumping to? Duncan Robert is the first to jump. No one saw him do it, but some claim they felt something at the moment he jumped—a sort of missed beat, or skip, in the order of things. The Void waits in the woods just outside of town and has for as long as anyone can remember, though no one knows why. In the tradition of The Celestine Prophecy and Mutant Message Down Under, this teaching fable explores the necessity of taking risks, life beyond the limits and time and space, and humanity’s place in the universe. "In a way, Jumping is similar to spiritually directed fantasy or channeled work. I’ve never written anything like it and typically don’t read anything like it, so I’m short on language to describe it. It’s metaphysical and fiction, which removes it from the category of straight channeling or metaphysical self-help books." —Jane Peranteau

Book Synopsis Come With Me If You Want to Live by : Michael Harris
Download or read book Come With Me If You Want to Live written by Michael Harris and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-11-02 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If our near future sometimes feels like a dystopian sci-fi movie, that’s because it is. In Come With Me If You Want to Live: The Future as Foretold in Classic Sci-Fi Films, Michael Harris reveals the hidden-in-plain-sight meanings of the greatest science fiction films of the past fifty years, the ways in which they predicted the future that we are increasingly living in, but how we can still avoid the worst of what they warned us about. The 1970s saw the start of a new wave of science fiction that predicted environmental destruction, out-of-control technology, and escalating political crises. These were not the fantastical imaginings of filmmakers, they were based on rising environmental consciousness and solid scientific research. The explanation of why we didn’t heed these warnings might be the most important story of our time – and now our future. Each chapter focuses on a classic sci-fi film: among them Blade Runner, Terminator 2, 12 Monkeys, Brazil, , Soylent Green, and the Back to the Future series; these films are used to consider our likely environmental, technological, and political future. But taking sci-fi seriously again could help us to regain our power to create different tomorrows guided by practical utopianism, and to imagine new science fictions for a better world. If you’re wondering what the future holds, maybe you’ve already seen it.

What’s better than digging in the dirt and putting together the pieces of history? For archaeologist Jackson Henley, absolutely nothing. Unfortunately, lost funding forces him to head to his hometown in Vermont. It’ll be great to see all his brothers who still live in town, but Jackson’s stay is definitely temporary. He’s got valuable treasures to unearth in far more interesting spots than a small town deep in the woods. An injured dog, however, leads Jackson to an unexpected reunion with his high school sweetheart. Isabel Perri is not supposed to be in town. She shouldn’t be running Pine River Cottages where he’s staying either. She definitely shouldn’t look even hotter than she did as the teenager who had broken up with him when he’d entered college ahead of schedule. Isabel also swears she’ll be out of Maplehaven before it gets its hooks back into her. She’s got dreams of opening her own resort in a busy tourist area. Getting replanted in her hometown won’t make those dreams come true. Neither will giving in to the magnetic pull she feels every time Jackson is around. Will this second chance alter their escape plans? Is one kind night enough to uncover a love buried in the past?

Dick, and more Featuring more than 150 photos, this insightful volume will become the bible of science fiction and fantasy’s most interesting and least-known chapters. “Will broaden your horizons and turn you on to wonders bubbling under the mass-market commodified pleasures to which we all too often limit ourselves.” —The Washington Post
