Collecting the prophetic pieces of a career that has spanned more than sixty years, Arthur C. Clarke lucidly demonstrates through his nonfiction essays that he not only anticipated many of the twentieth century's greatest scientific innovations but that he also helped to shape the path to come.

Book Details

First Sentence

"The very first printed item my indefatigable bibliographer David N. Samuelson (Arthur C. Clarke: A Primary and Secondary Bibliography, Boston, G.K. Hall & Co., 1984) has been able to locate is in the autumn 1932 issue of the Huish Magazine, published four times a year by the school I attended from 1927 to 1936."
