What might a future city need? Could an imagined invention work, and what would change if it did? Questions about tomorrow connect creativity with careful thinking about evidence, resources, and people.

Future Technology and Science-Fiction Ideas explores 190 questions across eight chapters, from imagining the future to robots and computing, energy and materials, space, biology, cities, the physical limits of science-fiction ideas, and the choices that shape society.

Discover why the future is difficult to predict, why a useful invention depends on more than its design, and how stories can explore both hopes and concerns. The book distinguishes working technology, experiments, proposals, and fictional devices rather than treating every exciting idea as a promise.

Each question combines a clear English explanation with a full-color illustration. A highlighted sentence brings the main idea into focus, while “Good to know” features add another detail for conversation. Readers can compare possibilities, consider practical constraints, and ask whose lives a change might affect.

Choose one question for shared reading or follow a favorite subject independently. This illustrated paperback offers many starting points for discussing tomorrow while keeping imagination and evidence in view.
