Th is is a science fiction book unlike any other. It has lunar
colonies for its characters, not people, and history instead of
a plot. It shows a vision of the future of mankind, on Luna, and
in the rest of the solar system that is as scientifically projected
as possible.
If you are interested in exploring one possible future scenario
for mankind, you should read this book carefully. It is based
on the idea that technology must follow a path dictated by its
nature, and society will follow a path strongly influenced by that
technology. Be warned that casual thinking about the future of
mankind is now over as scientific projection has arrived.
