INTRODUCTION

This book does not contain any vivid metaphors and similes. The only pictorial phrase is the book title while it expresses briefly and correctly the future essence of people civilization. Then follows the scientific-technical forecast done in accordance with the requirements of logic and causality references.

Originally this book was planned to be a survey of existing scientific and technical forecasts. However the lack of serious forecasting publications, groundlessness and often unseriousness of a number of forecasts, and also insignificant background of conceptual foresight, have convinced the author in expediency of his own conclusion presentation. Technical and scientific developments of next decennium outlined in present book are presented from the point of view of a man who is a contemporary of forecasting events. This hypothetic person, moving forward on time scale from decennium to decennium, analyzes condition of science and technique, and also describes the existing developments of positions of direct participation in current events. The book is full of cause-effect relations, that's why it is better to read it stepwise, not run before the hounds, otherwise the forecast of science and technique condition of current century last decade can appear to be too challenging, groundless and even strained.Originally this book was planned to be a survey of existing scientific and technical forecasts.
