If you are interested in the Future this is a must-read: "Future Files" by Richard Watson

I ran across Richard Watson's work at the Future Exploration Network the other and was so impressed that I ordered his new book, Future Files, right away. On my way from ZRH to SFO last week (and back) I read most of it and I must say that it really rocks!  Lots of great information about future trends and scenarios that will provide lots of food for thought - and not just media and technology but just about everything else, too. If you are interested in the Future... buy this book.  Check out Richard's essays and writings at his what's next website.

Futurefilesbookcover "Future Files is a new book filled with provocative forecasts about how the world might change in the next half century. It examines emerging trends and developments in society, technology, economy, and business, and makes educated speculations as to where they might take us..."  (from the author)

PS: His colleague Ross Dawson (also at FEN) offers some good reading, as well, here
