Product description

Review

“One of the best and most interesting books on technology.”
—Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution

“There are many writers with optimistic visions of the future. However, the goals I most often hear are all the negation of negatives: cure cancer, eliminate poverty, stop climate change. . . . This is good, but it is not enough. [These techno-optimists] are content with bringing the whole world up to the current best standard of living, but not increasing it. In this context, I found Where Is My Flying Car? refreshing. Hall unabashedly calls for unlimited progress in every dimension.”
—Jason Crawford, Roots of Progress

"Whether there is 'tech stagnation' or a revolution about to swarm the skies, Where Is My Flying Car?offers piercing questions and answers about what it might take to make the dream come true."
—David Brin, astrophysicist and author of Existence and The Postman

"This book is an inspirational roadmap to an amazing future that can be ours if we will only reach for it. Hall’s bold new perspective on technological progress is a must-read for anyone who claims to be a futurist."
—Robert Freitas, nanotechnology scientist and author of Nanomedicine

"America's 'golden quarter century' of technological and economic progress ended 50 years ago. Instead of flying cars, we got Facebook. J. Storrs Hall brilliantly explains the reasons for this Great Stagnation, and what to do to bring about another golden era of growth and prosperity."
—Glenn Harlan Reynolds, Beauchamp Brogan Distinguished Professor of Law, University of Tennessee

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I spent most of my time as a kid reading science fiction. Well, that and everything else ranging from Sherlock Holmes to Jeeves. And making models of dinosaurs, robots, and flying machines. Then I spent most of my productive life studying artificial intelligence, designing and programming computers, and exploring nanotechnology. Now I just write books in the hopes of sharing some of the insights I've run into along the way.
