Description
Where Is My Flying Car? is a thought-provoking account of technological stagnation since the 1970s and a vision for a richer, more abundant future. The author, an engineer and futurist, sets out to answer the question of what happened to the future we were promised.
The book explores the technical limitations of building flying cars, but soon evolves into an investigation of the scientific, technological, and social roots of economic stagnation that began in the 1970s. The author recounts how collective ambitions for the future were derailed, with devastating consequences for global wealth creation and distribution.
Drawing on years of original research and personal engineering experience, Where Is My Flying Car? offers a bold vision for a better future, powered by exponential progress and built on a foundation of abundance and wonder.
