G Rating:
It's so refreshing to find a book that doesn't paint a picture of our future as if there's a cataclysmic doomsday just around the corner.
After all, if we can't think about a positive future, how can we make it happen?
After completing first class honours in technology, Stevenson was hired as an expert in cryptography while he also fronted a pop band, and then went on to become a stand-up comedian.
In this, his first book, he sets off into a hypothetical future to find extinct species resurrected, the energy crisis solved and Carbon dioxide stored safely away.
