An Optimist\'s Tour of the Future: One Curious Man Sets Out to Answer What\'s Next? by Mark Stevenson

This is tough for me to rate. The first two sections were fairly boring and...not THAT interesting or (to me)optimistic. But when Stevenson started talking about the future of the Earth, well, that got both interesting and optimistic. If you care about the environment, or are worried about the future of the Earth, it's probably worth reading those chapters. Otherwise, you have to be REALLY into science to like this.

Also, for what it's worth, the prose is accessible and the man is funny. But still.
