Futuring the Future by Michael F. Kaufmann


I tried to read the book, Futuring the Future, by Michael F. Kaufmann, for several weeks now. I got to chapter 2, and read the same page over and over. So I sat this book aside and completely finished another book, and came back to it. Again, the same thing happened, so I put this book aside, and didn't try to finish it. I couldn't get into the story at all and found it completely confusing. The story is written in simple terms, but to me it was very confusing. I couldn't figure out who was speaking. To me it reminded me of when I did a play in high school.

I am including a synopsis from the Amazon website so you will know what the book is about. "How will the future look like? How does science, technology and human society look like when they are exhausting their full potential? An unexpected encounter changes the face of humanity and its destiny. A smart, innovating and rewarding novel that will challenge your mind. Futuring the future is an original masterpiece, which goes beyond traditional genre conformities. It brings together fiction and non-fiction to weave an illuminating text that is packed with information and loaded with inspiring novel and mind-blowing ideas. A rich cultural treasure that belongs in every intellectuals’ home. Futuring the future offers a profound and multidisciplinary look at the future - from scientific breakthroughs, through linguistic innovations, and all the way to a future mathematical gateway connecting reality to the virtual world. An interdisciplinary analysis based on a decade of research and sprinkled with nuanced humor, this is a book you will not forget."

I am giving this book a 2 star rating as I just couldn't get into it, and just didn't enjoy what I did read. I usually try to finish a book even if I don't care for it but with this one, I just had to put it away.
